California Gov. Gavin Newsom and his fellow state Democrats are threatening a redistricting plan that would eliminate more than half of the current GOP-held congressional districts amid a nationwide battle over gerrymandering.
Republicans currently hold nine seats in California, compared to the Democrats’ 43. Under Newsom’s proposed plan, Democrats would pick up five more seats.
«We strongly believe that this map serves the best interest of California voters, while also attempting to push back against the corrupt scheme occurring in Texas and other Republican-majority states where Republicans – doing the bidding of their DC party bosses – are considering adopting a clearly racially gerrymandered, partisan map at the expense of their voters,» the Democratic Congressional Campaign Commission (DCCC) said last week.
Here are the Republicans whose districts would likely become unwinnable under the plan.

Rep. Doug Lamalfa’s northern congressional district is currently mostly rural, leading to a +17 Republican voter registration advantage.
Under the proposed redistricting plan, however, that would swing to a +10 advantage for Democrats. This would be accomplished by reclassifying a vast section of the district’s northernmost territory.

Rep. Kevin Kiley’s third congressional district currently has a +6 Republican advantage by voter registration, but that would flip to a +8 Democrat advantage under the new plan.
This is accomplished by stretching the district to include portions of the deep-blue suburbs around Sacramento.
Rep. David Valadao, District 22

Rep. David Valadao is one of the few Republicans in California who was able to win a district that already has a slight Democratic advantage.
Under the new plan, however, Democrats would tack a six-point advantage on top of the current voter registration match-up.
Rep. Ken Calvert, District 41

Rep. Ken Calvert’s 41st congressional district would face a massive swing toward Democrats, with the GOP losing its voter registration advantage and Democrats picking up a +20 advantage.
«64% of Californians oppose Gavin Newsom’s power grab. It’s clear there is bipartisan support for keeping the Independent Citizens Redistricting Commission and not allowing politicians to draw their district maps behind closed doors to choose their voters,» Calvert wrote of the plan on X.
Rep. Darrell Issa, District 48

Rep. Darrell Issa’s district would pick up a section of Calvert’s former district in Palm Springs, a deep blue voting area that promises to swing Issa’s district to a +4 Democrat advantage.
Based on the 2024 presidential election, Issa’s district went +15 in favor of Trump, but under the new boundaries it would have gon +3 in favor of former Vice President Kamala Harris, according to the Cook Political Report.

Of the five seats impacted, Valadao’s and Issa’s would be turned into lean-Democratic districts that may still be winnable by Republican candidates, but the others would be flipping firmly to the Democrats.

A man was shot and killed early Sunday after allegedly breaching the secure perimeter of President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach, Florida, the U.S. Secret Service said.
The incident occurred around 1:30 a.m. when the suspect made an «unauthorized entry» through the north gate of the resort as another vehicle was exiting. The man has been identified as 21-year-old Austin Tucker Martin of North Carolina, Palm Beach County Sheriff Ric Bradshaw confirmed to Fox News.
The suspect was observed carrying what appeared to be a shotgun and a fuel can. Agents and a deputy from the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office (PBSO) confronted him.
«They confronted a white male that was carrying a gas can and a shotgun. He was ordered to drop those two pieces of equipment that he had with him – at which time he put down the gas can, raised the shotgun to a shooting position,» Bradshaw told reporters. «At that point in time, the deputy and the two Secret Service agents fired their weapons and neutralized the threat.»

Bradshaw said the suspect did not exchange any words with law enforcement officers who instructed the man to «drop the items.»
The man was pronounced dead at the scene.
No Secret Service or PBSO personnel were injured, and no Secret Service protectees were present at the location during the time of the incident, officials said.
Trump was at the White House at the time of the breach, even though he frequently spends weekends at Mar-a-Lago, according to The Associated Press.
Secret Service spokesman Anthony Guglielmi said the man is believed to have bought the shotgun while traveling south, and authorities later discovered the weapon’s box inside his vehicle, The Associated Press reported.
The Moore County Sheriff’s Office said in a press release that a relative reported Martin missing around 1:38 a.m. Sunday.
He was entered into a national missing person database before federal authorities informed local officials they were conducting an active investigation in Florida related to Martin.

The sheriff’s office said it had no prior history with the 21-year-old and has since turned over the missing person case information to federal authorities. It is not involved in the Florida investigation.
The incident, including the suspect’s background, actions and potential motive, as well as the circumstances surrounding the use of force, are under investigation by the FBI, the U.S. Secret Service, and the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office.
Officials said they are working to compile a psychological profile as part of the investigation, according to The Associated Press.
FBI Miami Special Agent in Charge Brett Skiles said the bureau is assisting in the investigation because the shooting occurred in an area under Secret Service protection.
He said the FBI’s evidence response team is processing the scene and collecting evidence, and urged residents who live nearby to review their exterior cameras for footage from Saturday night into early Saturday morning.
«If you see anything that looks suspicious or out of place, please contact us,» he told reporters.

FBI Director Kash Patel said in a post on X that his agency is «dedicating all necessary resources in the investigation of this morning’s incident,» and «will continue working closely with @SecretService as well [as] our state and federal partners and will provide updates as we are able.»
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt wrote on X that the U.S. Secret Service «acted quickly and decisively to neutralize a crazy person, armed with a gun and a gas canister, who intruded President Trump’s home.»
The breach comes after Trump faced two assassination attempts during his 2024 campaign.

Tensions flared Sunday across Iran as anti-government protests reignited at major universities and in the streets of Tehran, with reports of tear gas and shots fired in the capital.
Students gathered in Tehran and the northeastern city of Mashhad to mark 40-day memorials for those killed during January’s nationwide anti-government demonstrations before violence broke out.
Ali Safavi, a member of Iran’s Parliament-in-Exile, the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI), told Fox News Digital anti-government protests at the University of Tehran featured chants such as, «This is the year of blood,» and noted that Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) shot at protesters at another location in the city.
«At Khajeh Nasir University in Tehran, students trampled on Khamenei’s picture, while similar acts took place at Ferdowsi and Sajjad universities,» Safavi said.

«Students were shouting ‘death to the oppressor, whether the Shah or the Leader,’ while in Tehran’s Vali Asr Street forces fired at the crowds, which were mostly young people,» he added.
Safavi also claimed that two motorcycle units composed of men and women affiliated with resistance groups paraded through parts of Tehran carrying flags of the National Liberation Army (NLA), the armed wing associated with the NCRI.

In a statement circulated online, university students also condemned what they described as renewed attempts by authorities to suppress dissent.
«Once again we see that the tainted hands of monopolists seek to turn this sacred space into a playground for reactionary forces,» the statement read. «We who have tasted the bitter experience of repression accept no form of dictatorship, whether with a turban or with boots,» it said.

Iran’s state TV showed videos of what it said were people «pretending to be students» attacking pro-government students in Tehran who were taking part in protests to condemn January’s protests.
The individuals were allegedly injuring students by throwing rocks, Reuters reported.
Some witness accounts and opposition groups described a more forceful response by authorities.
Security forces reportedly fired tear gas at crowds of demonstrators, many of them young people.
At other locations, the protesters also confronted groups of pro-regime demonstrators.
Reports from opposition sources indicated that shots were also fired as security units attempted to disperse gatherings that had spilled beyond campus grounds into surrounding streets.

Nighttime mobilizations also continued for a second time, with large-scale protests reported across several campuses.
The clashes marked one of the most visible displays of unrest since January’s crackdown and came as Iran faces a potential military strike by the U.S. and amid ongoing talks to negotiate over Iran’s nuclear program.
