Newsom’s office reveals blue state will comply with ICE after illegal immigrant’s early release plans exposed
The state of California plans to comply with Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s detainer after an illegal immigrant convicted of vehicular manslaughter was set to be released on July 19 – over six years before his full sentence is up.
Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom’s press office announced he would be brought into federal custody ahead of the July release date. Fox News reported earlier that the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation tends to follow ICE detainer orders, but there were concerns that the state’s sanctuary policies could have played a role in letting him be released back into the community.
«After being deported in 2013, this individual unlawfully re-entered the US & committed heinous crimes. A GOP DA then gave him a plea deal instead of pursuing 2nd-degree murder. CDCR will again coordinate with ICE—as they have w/ 10,000+ inmates—to transfer him before release,» the governor’s press account tweeted on Wednesday afternoon.

Oscar Eduardo Ortega-Anguiano was driving drunk, high, and speeding at nearly 100mph on the 405 freeway in Orange County in November 2021, when he crashed into a car being driven by a young couple, 19-year-old Anya Varfolomeev and Nicholay Osokin, which killed them both as they burned alive. In spring 2022, he was convicted of two counts of gross vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated.
Fox News reported on Wednesday morning that Ortega-Anguiano will be released by the California state government on July 19 after serving just 3.5 years, and the victim’s families were notified on Easter Sunday.
After the report came out, the Department of Justice said they would be prosecuting Ortega-Anguiano on federal charges in order to keep him behind bars longer.

«My office has filed a felony immigration charge against this defendant. He faces up to 20 years in federal prison if convicted for 8 USC 1326. If the State of California will not seek the full measure of justice against this individual, the [DOJ] will,» Bill Essayli, United States Attorney for the Central District of California, tweeted.
Border czar Tom Homan said ICE planned on quickly arresting and deporting him if he was released by the Golden State.
«I will work with [Homeland Security] Secretary Noem on this case, and I guarantee you, if they don’t honor the detainer, we’ll have ICE agents outside that facility to take custody of this individual and deport him,» Homan said Wednesday on «America’s Newsroom.»

ICE told Fox News that he had entered the country illegally twice before and had a prior criminal background before the two teens were killed in the fatal crash.
«His previous criminal convictions include burglary in 2005; vehicle theft in 2007; and battery on spouse with kidnapping in 2014,» ICE stated.
«An immigration judge ordered Ortega removed Nov. 3, 2014; he filed several unsuccessful appeals and was taken into ICE custody Dec. 2, 2016, and removed to Mexico the same day. Ortega attempted to reenter the United States Feb. 2, 2018, near Otay Mesa, California by presenting a counterfeit document; he was paroled into the U.S. pending criminal prosecution for illegal reentry after removal. An immigration official issued Ortega an expedited removal order and removed him June 1, 2018, to Mexico; after his latest removal, he again illegally reentered the U.S. on an unknown date and location. ICE issued a detainer with the Orange County Jail, California, Nov. 27, 2021, where he was being held on vehicular manslaughter charges at the time,» the statement continued.

Twelve states sue Trump over tariffs, claiming they’re ‘illegal’ and harmful to US economy
President Donald Trump’s sweeping tariffs are facing a major legal challenge from New York and 11 other states, who argue the president overstepped his authority and put the U.S. economy at risk by imposing them without congressional approval.
Filed in the U.S. Court of International Trade, the lawsuit challenges Trump’s use of emergency powers under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) to impose broad tariffs on imports from countries worldwide.
«Once again, Democrats like Letitia James are prioritizing a witch hunt against President Trump over protecting the safety and wellbeing of their constituents,» White House spokesman Kush Desai wrote exclusively to Fox News Digital. «The Trump Administration remains committed to using its full legal authority to confront the distinct national emergencies our country is currently facing—both the scourge of illegal migration and fentanyl flows across our border and the exploding annual U.S. goods trade deficit.»
The 12 states, however, argue that the Constitution gives Congress, not the president, the power to impose taxes and tariffs, and that IEEPA was never intended to authorize trade policy on this scale.

«President Trump’s reckless tariffs have skyrocketed costs for consumers and unleashed economic chaos across the country,» said Gov. Kathy Hochul. «New York is standing up to fight back against the largest federal tax hike in American history. Attorney General James and I are partnering on this litigation on behalf of New York consumers, because we can’t let President Trump push our country into a recession.»
«The president does not have the power to raise taxes on a whim,» said New York Attorney General Letitia James. «His tariffs are unlawful and, if not stopped, they will lead to more inflation, unemployment, and economic damage.»
Since February 2025, Trump has signed multiple executive orders imposing new tariffs on Canada, Mexico, China, and nearly all other U.S. trading partners.
The administration cited national emergencies as the basis for the tariffs, including drug trafficking, illegal immigration, and unfair trade practices. The states in the lawsuit claim the president’s justifications are vague and legally insufficient.
The IEEPA, enacted in 1977, allows presidents to respond to specific international threats, such as terrorism or hostile foreign actors. But according to the lawsuit, no president in the 48 years since its passage has used it to impose tariffs.

The complaint argues that the new tariffs were imposed without congressional approval or the necessary legal findings to justify sweeping trade actions.
The lawsuit also claims that tariffs are not connected to any specific «unusual and extraordinary» threat, as required under IEEPA, which the Trump administration cited as its authority. The states claim the tariffs will significantly raise consumer prices, drive inflation, lead to job losses, and create widespread economic instability.

The legal challenge doesn’t just focus on economics. It argues the tariffs are unconstitutional because they usurp congressional authority over taxes and trade. The lawsuit also claims the administration’s shifting policy — which they claim is often modified by executive orders or social media — has created chaos in trade and financial markets.
Supporters of the Trump administration say the tariffs are a bold move to protect American industries and correct longstanding trade imbalances.
At a February 2025 press conference, President Trump said, «We took in hundreds of billions of dollars [with past tariffs]… It’s going to make our country rich,» framing the measures as a continuation of his America First economic agenda.
But the lawsuit paints a different picture of legal overreach and a lack of transparency. It argues that if President Trump’s actions are allowed to stand, any future president could impose taxes under the label of emergency authority, bypassing Congress entirely.

Gov. Hochul and Attorney General James, both vocal critics of the Trump administration, have frequently clashed with the president over a range of issues, from immigration to environmental policy. This latest lawsuit marks another high-profile confrontation.

Alongside New York, the attorneys general of Arizona, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Maine, Minnesota, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, and Vermont have joined the case.
The coalition is asking the court to block further enforcement of the tariffs and declare the orders invalid under both the Constitution and federal law.

Los escenarios de un cónclave marcado por el secretismo: de las chances de un primer papa africano a la opción del «Francisco asiático»

El cónclave que elegirá al sucesor de Francisco tendrá la compleja misión de marcar el rumbo futuro de la Iglesia católica tras 12 años de un pontificado histórico.
Hay varios posibles caminos que se bifurcan en el cuerpo cardenalicio: mantener el progresismo que inició Jorge Bergoglio; profundizar esa senda reformista con la elección de otro papa no europeo, quizás africano o asiático del mismo perfil; buscar un consenso, una especie de transición con una figura moderada que equilibre las luchas internas, o dar un brusco giro de 180 grados con el regreso a un conservadurismo clásico.

“Hay varias cosas que se analizan y piensan en un cónclave. Hay muchas aristas y claves: la cuestión pastoral, ideológica, la lucha conservadora-progresista y el peso que tiene el papa anterior. Esas son las variables principales”, dijo a TN el periodista y escritor Marcelo Larraquy, autor de dos libros sobre el papa Francisco, “Recen por él” y “Código Francisco”.
¿La hora de África?
En Italia ya se comienza a hablar de un papa italiano. El último fue Juan Pablo I con su efímero papado de 33 días en 1978.
Desde entonces han pasado dos europeos (Juan Pablo II, polaco; Benedicto XVI, alemán, y un sudamericano de ascendencia italiana, Francisco). La pregunta es si ya es hora de que la Iglesia mire hacia otro continente.

Algunos cardenales ya lo esbozan en voz alta. “El resultado del cónclave podría traer algunas sorpresas. El papa Francisco fue una sorpresa, no estaba en los pronósticos. Y fue una hermosa sorpresa”, dijo el arzobispo de San Pablo, cardenal Odilo Scherer.
Para el purpurado brasileño, el nuevo pontífice podría venir de un lugar inesperado. “No me sorprendería que el nuevo Papa viniera de un continente distinto a Europa o América. La Iglesia Católica está en todo el mundo”, dijo a la radio CBN.

Larraquy cree que el progresismo, en teoría, tiene ventaja en el futuro cónclave. ¿El motivo? Francisco dejó la vara muy alta. “La agenda climática, la agenda 2030 de la ONU y el posicionamiento a favor de los migrantes no son posturas conservadoras. ¿Podríamos tener un papa que avale las razzias de Trump contra los inmigrantes en Estados Unidos?“, se preguntó.
Africanos conservadores o un asiático con proyección hacia China
En ese escenario, crecen las voces que señalan la posibilidad de un “papa africano”, el primero de la historia.
“Es muy difícil volver atrás con la popularidad que tuvo este papa que abandonó el estilo de la Iglesia de Ratzinger. Pero los africanos son muy conservadores. No veo que tengan la apertura del papa”, dijo Larraquy.

Una variable podría ser un “papa asiático”. Aquí todas las miradas apuntan al filipino Luis Antonio Tagle, de perfil progresista y cercano al pensamiento inclusivo de Francisco.

“Esto permitiría una proyección hacia China, que es el gran objetivo de la Iglesia. Es algo que está muy pensado”, dijo Larraquy.
La opción sería el italiano Pietro Parolin, secretario de Estado del Vaticano, un hábil negociador y considerado un moderado entre los cardenales con derecho a voto. “Parolin está muy atento a China”, detalló el periodista.
Quiénes son los cardenales africanos “papables”
En ese universo de 33 cardenales africanos solo un puñado es visto como “papable”. La mayoría tiene un marcado perfil conservador. Ellos son:
- Fridolin Ambongo (Congo). El arzobispo de Kinshasa, de 65 años, fue nombrado cardenal por Francisco en 2019. Integra el Consejo de Cardenales, un grupo cercano a Francisco, aunque es considerado un tradicionalista. Por ejemplo, rechazó las bendiciones a parejas del mismo sexo impulsadas por Bergoglio. Según dijo, las “uniones de personas del mismo sexo son intrínsecamente malas”.

- Robert Sarah (Guinea). A los 79 años, es el ex jefe de la oficina de liturgia del Vaticano. Es conocido por sus posturas conservadoras y, bajo ese posicionamiento, calificó de “herejía” las bendiciones a parejas del mismo sexo. Ha alertado en varias ocasiones sobre “la amenaza” del islam.

- Peter Ebere Okpaleke (Nigeria). De 62 años, es sabida su cercanía con Francisco, aunque con un perfil más moderado y de centro. Fue nombrado canciller por Benedicto XVI. Las trabas impuestas por su país le impidieron asumir el cargo hasta el pontificado de Bergoglio.

- Peter Turkson (Ghana). Peter Kodwo Appiah Turkson tiene 76 años. Posee un perfil progresista. Hasta 2021, estuvo encargado del Dicasterio para el Servicio del Desarrollo Humano Integral. Posee amplia experiencia en el Vaticano. Su trabajo estuvo centrado en áreas como la justicia social, la ecología y el desarrollo humano integral.
En este marco, las posibilidades de tener un “papa africano” se inclinan más hacia el conservadurismo clásico que al reformismo de Francisco. Habrá que ver hacia dónde decanta la balanza del cuerpo de cardenales para saber si el nuevo pontífice vendrá de una región nueva, repetirá en América Latina o regresará finalmente a Europa.
