Good night to all! 😴

As families across the nation gather to celebrate Easter, I extend my gratitude to the dedicated East Wing Staff for their tireless effort in preparing the upcoming White House Easter Egg Roll.

This cherished tradition, rooted in history since 1878, brings joy, storytelling, and laughter to America’s children.  I look forward to watching all of the smiles light up this memorable day, on Monday.

May this Good Friday inspire hope and faith for all Americans and our friends around the world.

Texas: On Thursday evening at around 6:07pm, Frisco Fire/EMS and Police sent numerous units to a reported shooting at a house in Frisco. The house belongs to the Metcalf family whose son was killed at the track meet. [Address has been left off for privacy reasons.] After units arrived on scene, they found the call to be a swatting hoax.

Swatting is the act of making false emergency calls to law enforcement, often by calling 911, to provoke a response.

There were no injuries.

LA is not okay.

People are losing hope in their own city and that should concern all of us. It’s time to fix this. It’s time to turn LA around.

One-third of fires responded to by the Los Angeles Fire Department over the last six years involve the homeless, according to a newly released department memo.

The memo found rubbish fires — half of which involve the homeless — became the department’s top service call type in 2024 and said falling LAFD staffing and rising homeless dispatch volume leave the department overextended.

The report says that while homeless individuals make up just 1.2% of LA’s population, they are responsible for 12% of LAFD emergency medical services incidents and 33% of fires. This means compared to other people in Los Angeles, homeless people are 10 times more likely to use EMS services and 28 times more likely to be “involved” in a fire — all at taxpayers’ expense.

LAFD says it believes these numbers understate the number of homeless-related fires and medical emergencies it responds to, meaning the costs are likely even higher.

Last week, Trooper Jeffrey Galindo was awarded the Lifesaving Award and Illinois PD Officer Gerardo Chaidez was awarded the Director’s Award for their actions in July 2024.

That day, off-duty Officer Chaidez was traveling in Mitchell Co. when he witnessed a man crash while riding his motorcycle. The incident completely severed the man’s leg above the knee. Chaidez used his shirt and later a belt to make improvised tourniquets. Trooper Galindo arrived on the scene and immediately retrieved his department-issued tourniquet, applying it above the improvised ones. Trooper Galindo and Officer Chaidez continued to assess the man’s condition until EMS arrived and transported him to a local hospital for further treatment.

Their decisive responses that day resulted in the saving of a life. Read more at https://bit.ly/4cp692w.
