BREAKING: "The University of Southern California canceled its Tuesday gubernatorial debate after facing fiery criticism about excluding every gubernatorial candidate of color.

Although the university defended the methodology used to determine who was invited to participate in the forum, they canceled the debate less than 24 hours before it was set to take place because of the mounting controversy."

NEW: FBI Raleigh Joint Terrorism Task Force and private sector partners acted quickly and stopped an individual allegedly planning a mass shooting in NC — likely saving lives.

Investigators say Eric Byrd also threatened to become one himself in messages posted on social media.

Authorities report that he posted photos of himself holding guns alongside disturbing racist, homophobic, and pro Nazi comments.

Byrd was detained on March 9 during an involuntary commitment request after Meta flagged the concerning posts to federal authorities.

He is charged with communicating a threat.

"I like it. I think Trump's doing a hell of a job."

"Most of the travelers we spoke with say... they're pleased to see ICE agents stepping in."

One aspect of the DHS shutdown that has flown under the radar:

Yes, ICE's frontline deportation officers are funded via OBBB, but their civilian support staff/non-law enforcement personnel are not. They haven't been paid since the DHS shutdown began.

They may not be the ones physically removing illegal immigrants, but they are crucial support for the ICE officers who are.

I've been contacted by several of these employees who feel they've been left behind. They won't quit or call out because they believe in the mission, but it is getting increasingly difficult for them after missing several paychecks already.

Earlier this month, I met Molly, Amy, and Patti as they asked for help freeing their brother Dennis Coyle from detention in Afghanistan. Today, Dennis is on his way home. We thank the UAE and Qatar for their support. The release is a positive step towards ending the practice of hostage diplomacy.

A powerful reminder this National Agriculture Day as we celebrate not just the industry, but the heart of the hardworking people who make it what it is.

Not your typical interstate traffic. 🐎

Yesterday, KSP Post 4 troopers spotted this horse on I-65 just south of Elizabethtown. They safely guided the horse off the interstate.

Gregory Bovino has only a few regrets:

“I wish I’d caught even more illegal aliens,” he said in a recent interview. “I mean, we went as hard as we could, but there’s always a creative and innovative solution to catching even more.”

Over the weekend, a man reportedly smashed a glass bottle over another person’s head, prompting a woman to pull a knife and stab three people during an altercation at Zaya, a popular restaurant located in a historic building Downtown.

Reports suggest the dispute may have stemmed from an argument over a restaurant bill, though officials have not confirmed that detail. Police say at least two individuals were taken into custody.

The investigation remains ongoing as authorities work to determine the circumstances surrounding the incident.
