EXCLUSIVE: After being honored by DHS Sec. Mullin for their actions during the 2025 Dallas ICE sniper attack, two ICE officers and a staff member spoke with me about the day bullets tore through their facility, rescuing wounded detainees, and why they say threats and violence against ICE have become a โnew realityโ for officers nationwide.
โI donโt think Iโve witnessed it be this violent or this volatile in my entire 18 years of federal service,โ one of the officers told me.

P Navarro: "What weโre going to do here, the E.O. you're going to sign, thatโs about a 20-30 billion dollar a year E.O. youโre going to get because we are going to crack down...on the fentanyl... and all of the tariff evaders."
POTUS signs an Executive Order on strengthening customs enforcement by using new technologies to ensure that contraband and illegal goods aren't being smuggled into the U.S., and that goods being brought in are being accurately accounted for
POTUS signs an Executive Order on reforming federal workforce accountability:
"What this does is basically treats those employees like private sector workers. They can be hired on the basis of merit and confidence, but if they're messing up, then they can be removed quickly rather than taking a year or longer to get rid of them."

MBI INVESTIGATING OFFICER-INVOLVED SHOOTING IN SIMPSON COUNTY
Pearl, Miss. - The Mississippi Bureau of Investigation (MBI) is investigating an officer-involved shooting involving multiple agencies that occurred on June 3rd at a residence on Blair Road in Mendenhall, Mississippi.
Deputies responded to the residence to conduct a welfare check. Upon arrival, the deputies realized there was a burglary in progress. The subject, a juvenile, fired a weapon at the deputies, striking one, and barricaded himself inside the home. The deputies discharged their weapons at the subject. A standoff occurred and multiple agencies responded to assist. When officers deployed tear gas inside the home, the subject escaped the home and fled on foot and fired a weapon towards officers. A state trooper discharged his weapon, striking the subject. The subject was then taken into custody and transported to a nearby hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
One deputy was struck by gunfire and received non-life-threatening injuries. Upon entry of the residence, two individuals were found deceased. Their identities will be released by the local coroner pending next of kin notification.
No other law enforcement received any serious physical injury.
MBI is currently assessing this critical incident and gathering evidence. Upon completing the investigation, agents will share their findings with the Attorney Generalโs Office. This information is preliminary and subject to change.

Border 6 Fire Update:
Marron Valley along the U.S./Mexico Border, approximately 6 miles south of Dulzura, California.
The Border 6 Fire is now estimated at 1,000 acres and 5% contained, according to CAL FIRE.
Firefighters faced challenging conditions overnight as the fire made an estimated 300-acre run through rugged and highly inaccessible terrain. Fire activity moderated after sunset, aided by cooler temperatures and increased humidity, allowing crews to make progress on containment efforts.
Todayโs fire behavior will largely depend on weather conditions. Once the marine layer burns off and temperatures begin to rise, increased fire activity is possible across portions of the fire area. Winds and difficult access continue to present challenges for firefighters working the incident.

Election results shouldnโt take weeks to finalize.
Many Californians could be waiting days or even weeks for final election results, while other big states like Florida are often able to report most results on election night.
Regardless, Voter ID should be mandatory nationwide.
