A high-profile California Democrat erupted at ICE after agents showed up at California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s press conference announcing his redistricting plans were meant to confront the Trump administration and Texas Republicans.
California state Sen. Scott Wiener, of San Francisco County, expressed his outrage on Reddit, reposting a tweet from Newsom’s press office that mocked President Donald Trump’s all-caps custom.
«I’m authoring legislation to shut this ski mask s–t down,» Wiener wrote in bolded letters above an image of Newsom’s office’s tweet, which read: «BORDER PATROL HAS SHOWED UP AT OUR BIG BEAUTIFUL PRESS CONFERENCE! WE WILL NOT BE INTIMIDATED!» (sic).
Wiener went on to call Texas’ redistricting process «rigged» and accused «Trump and his cronies» of initiating it.

«Trump’s thugs showed up with ski masks. This situation — California leaders rallying for democracy and Trump’s secret police showing up to intimidate people — encapsulates exactly where our country is right now,» Weiner said.
«I’m proud of California for standing up for our democracy, and I look forward to voting for the California redistricting plan next week.»
Wiener’s bill would enforce misdemeanor charges against law enforcement who wear any «personal disguise while interacting with the public in performance of their duties, except as specified.»

«By creating a new crime, this bill would impose a state-mandated local program. The bill would additionally state the intent of the Legislature to enact legislation to ensure that Special Weapons and Tactics team officers can utilize gear necessary to protect their faces from physical harm while they perform their duties, and to enact legislation to require local, state, and federal law enforcement officers to include their name or badge number on their uniforms.»
California Democrats, including Newsom, previously enforced the opposite during the coronavirus pandemic; ordering Californians to wear face masks in public.
Wiener also filed paperwork earlier this summer to run as a candidate in the 2028 election for the congressional district now represented by Rep. Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif.
KRON, which also reported on the fiery Reddit post, asked the lawmaker about the filing.
Wiener told the outlet that he intends to run for Pelosi’s seat whenever she vacates it, whether it be in 2026 or the following cycle.
«This filing is a critical step to prepare for the serious work of running to succeed one of the icons of American politics.»

The 11th Congressional District is rated D+37 by the Cook Political Report, one point more Republican than it was in 2023. Therefore, the Democratic primary election is often indicative of the general’s result.
«In a potential race against extremely wealthy candidates who can self-fund, I’ll have to work very hard to prepare to go toe to toe,» Wiener told KRON, citing a «fight for democracy.»
Pelosi is 85 years old and has held the seat since she won a special election to succeed the late Rep. Sala Burton, D-Calif., in 1987.
Millennial businessman Bruce Lou garnered 19% of the vote in November as Pelosi’s most recent Republican opponent.
Lou also slammed the state’s redistricting plans on Friday, calling them a «Gavin-mander.»

Mamdani ignites social media outrage after photo-op at notorious NYC jail: ‘F—ing ridiculous’
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
As New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani has been embracing his Muslim faith amid Ramadan, he decided to break his religious fast with inmates who share his faith, in New York’s notorious Rikers Island jail, calling it «one of the most meaningful evenings» he’s had as mayor.
Although Mamdani has visited Rikers Island in the past as a state legislator, this marked his first visit as mayor of New York City.
Shortly before arriving, he reiterated his pledge to shut down the jail and have the city absorb the incarcerated population into its borough-based jails. He also hinted at plans to hire a facilitator to expedite those plans.
«This is me just being a Muslim New Yorker,» Mamdani said during the visit to Rikers, according to NPR. «There are some for whom that is a political act.»

Mamdani was joined during the visit by Yusef Salaam, a member of the so-called «Central Park Five» who were exonerated of a 1989 rape and assault. Salaam currently serves as a member of the New York City Council.
Social media erupted after Mamdani’s X post, with many critics questioning his decision to visit inmates at Rikers, which is notorious for its violent criminals.
Mystery novelist Daniel Friedman, who, according to his bio on Macmillan Publishers’ website, lives in New York City, noted, «You have to be an absolute monster to be sent to Rikers Island these days.»
«Offenders on Rikers all have long histories of doing things so horrible that even the woke, pro-crime judges and prosecutors in NYC don’t want to be responsible for what they’ll do if they let them go,» Friedman added.
Moshe Hill, a long-time Long Island resident and candidate for the Nassau County legislature, agreed with Friedman.
«Criminals in prison are just ‘New Yorkers in custody,’ according to Mamdani. Why are they in custody? You don’t go to Rikers Island for nothing!» Hill quipped.

«Mayor likes to hang out with the people who victimize us. F—ing ridiculous,» Newsmax’s Rob Schmitt posted on X.
Meanwhile, Emmy-Award winning producer and columnist Daniella Greenbaum Davis made her own post, asking the New York City mayor whether he had also visited the victims of the inmates he was meeting with.
«Visiting people in jail is admirable but just wondering if you’ve also visited their victims / the families of their victims?» she questioned. «Seems like there is a bizarre progressive determination to invert victimization I can’t quite understand.»
Among Mamdani’s celebrations during Ramadan was an iftar, or a daily fast-breaking, at the Museum of the City of New York. That also triggered some responses, including from a former college football coach and lawmaker, Sen. Tommy Tuberville, R-Ala.,

Tuberville shared a photo of Mamdani at the iftar alongside a photo of the Twin Towers on fire after planes hit them on Sept. 11, 2001. «The enemy is inside the gates,» Tuberville captioned the post.
Tuberville has faced backlash over the post, but the GOP senator stood firm and defended his social media post.
«I just go by his rhetoric,» Tuberville said.
«He’s made a lot of statements about his stance with Islam and radical Islam, all the things that go along with what he preaches every day. And I’m just kind of repeating what he’s saying,» the senator told D.C. News Now’s Reshad Hudson.

«We don’t need a division in this country. We need everybody to go with the Constitution, understand we have moral values. And if we all stick with those — I don’t care if you’re Muslim or Catholic or Baptist, it makes no difference,» he continued.
He added, «We need to make the country better; we don’t need to divide it. That’s what he’s doing in New York.»

El dengue en Panamá muestra un comportamiento que comienza a encender alertas en la población más joven. Según el último informe del Ministerio de Salud (Minsa), el grupo de 10 a 14 años es actualmente el más afectado, con una tasa de incidencia de 32.4 casos por cada 100,000 habitantes, superando al resto de los rangos etarios.
Este dato refleja una tendencia que preocupa a las autoridades sanitarias, ya que evidencia una mayor exposición de los menores de edad a entornos donde prolifera el mosquito Aedes aegypti.
En términos generales, el país acumula 1,232 casos de dengue hasta la semana epidemiológica No. 8 de 2026. De ese total, 1,081 corresponden a casos sin signos de alarma, mientras que 146 presentan signos de alarma y 5 han sido clasificados como dengue grave, lo que mantiene la vigilancia activa del sistema de salud.
Las cifras evidencian que, aunque la mayoría de los contagios son leves, existe un grupo de pacientes que puede evolucionar hacia formas más complejas de la enfermedad.
El informe también detalla el impacto en el sistema hospitalario, con un total de 149 personas hospitalizadas a nivel nacional. Además, se han registrado 4 defunciones, correspondientes a Bocas del Toro, con tres casos, y Coclé, con uno.
Estas cifras, aunque contenidas en comparación con otros países de la región, reflejan que el dengue sigue siendo una enfermedad con potencial letal si no se detecta y atiende a tiempo.
A nivel territorial, la distribución de los casos confirma que el virus mantiene una circulación activa en distintas zonas del país. La Región Metropolitana encabeza la lista con 337 casos, seguida por Colón, Bocas del Toro, San Miguelito y Panamá Oeste, que concentran una parte importante de los contagios.
También destacan áreas como Panamá Este, Herrera y Panamá Norte, lo que evidencia que la transmisión no está focalizada, sino extendida en múltiples regiones.
Entre los principales síntomas del dengue, las autoridades mencionan la fiebre, el dolor de cabeza, el malestar general, los dolores musculares y el dolor ocular.
Ante la presencia de estos signos, el Minsa insiste en la importancia de no automedicarse y acudir de forma oportuna a un centro de salud. La detección temprana es clave para evitar complicaciones, especialmente en pacientes que pueden desarrollar signos de alarma como sangrados o dolor abdominal intenso.
En el contexto regional, la situación del dengue en las Américas muestra un comportamiento mixto. De acuerdo con la Organización Panamericana de la Salud (OPS), hasta la semana epidemiológica 7 de 2026 se han reportado 299,210 casos sospechosos, de los cuales 66,690 han sido confirmados, además de 458 casos graves y 47 muertes .
Aunque estas cifras representan una disminución frente a 2025, las autoridades mantienen la alerta debido a la circulación simultánea de varios serotipos del virus.
La OPS también ha advertido que el dengue sigue siendo una de las enfermedades vectoriales más relevantes en la región, con capacidad de generar brotes explosivos cuando las condiciones climáticas y ambientales favorecen la reproducción del mosquito.
Factores como el aumento de temperaturas, la acumulación de agua y el crecimiento urbano desordenado continúan impulsando la expansión del virus en países de América Latina.
En Panamá, las autoridades sanitarias han reiterado que el control del dengue depende en gran medida de la participación ciudadana. El Minsa ha intensificado los operativos a través del equipo de Control de Vectores, pero insiste en que la eliminación de criaderos en viviendas y comunidades es fundamental para reducir los casos.
Recipientes como latas, botellas, neumáticos y cualquier objeto que acumule agua representan un riesgo directo.
El comportamiento del dengue en 2026, tanto a nivel nacional como regional, confirma que la enfermedad sigue siendo un desafío constante para los sistemas de salud.
Aunque las cifras actuales muestran cierta contención en comparación con años anteriores, la presencia de casos graves, defunciones y el impacto en población joven obligan a mantener las estrategias de vigilancia, prevención y respuesta activa en todo el país.

Trump administration urges judge to dissolve injunction blocking Abrego Garcia’s deportation to Liberia
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
The Department of Justice (DOJ) on Friday urged a judge to dissolve the injunction that keeps the Trump administration from detaining Kilmar Abrego Garcia again so he can quickly be deported to Liberia.
«Dissolution is also warranted because the Court’s Memorandum Order failed to acknowledge that the Court’s own prior injunction against removal is the sole impediment to Petitioner’s prompt removal,» the DOJ wrote in a court filing obtained by Fox News Digital. «The Court cannot both impose the impediment that delays removal and consequently prolongs detention and, at the same time, hold that the resulting detention is impermissibly prolonged.»
It added, «Any attempt by this Court to permanently enjoin the government from exercising its authority to remove the Petitioner from this country is in direct contradiction to established judicial norms, and a clear error of law.»
The administration deported Abrego Garcia, who they claim is a member of MS-13, a year ago to a prison in his native El Salvador, but he was returned to the U.S. in June to face human smuggling charges in Tennessee related to a 2022 traffic stop despite at first saying the administration had no power to bring him back.
His Lawyers deny he is a member of MS-13.

He was released from detention in December on the grounds that the Trump administration had not obtained the final notice of removal order that is needed to deport him to a third country.
Abrego Garcia, 31, has become a flash point in the national immigration debate since last March, when he was deported to El Salvador in violation of a 2019 court order in what Trump administration officials acknowledged was an «administrative error.»
The Supreme Court later ruled that the administration had to work to bring him back to the U.S.
JUDGE ORDERS MIGRANT DEPORTED IN ‘ERROR’ FREE FROM ICE CUSTODY WITH CRIMINAL CASE LOOMING
He has pleaded not guilty on the human smuggling charges and is seeking dismissal of the charges on the grounds of vindictive and selective prosecution.
The 2019 court order prevents Abrego Garcia from being deported to El Salvador after an immigration judge determined he faced danger from a gang that had threatened his family. He immigrated to the U.S. illegally as a teenager and has been under the supervision of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

Last month, U.S. District Judge Paula Xinis agreed to convert her previous emergency order blocking ICE from immediately re-detaining Abrego Garcia into a longer-term form of injunctive relief sought by his lawyers.
She said that the Trump administration failed to provide the court with any «good reason to believe» that they plan to remove Abrego Garcia to a third country in the «reasonably foreseeable future.» Instead, she said, they «made one empty threat after another to remove him to countries in Africa with no real chance of success.»
Abrego Garcia has said he’s willing to be sent to Costa Rica, but Acting Immigrations and Customs Enforcement Director Todd Lyons said he will instead be removed to Liberia.
Abrego Garcia’s attorney said in December Abrego was willing to leave for Costa Rica immediately, and that the country had given him asylum status months ago.

The government’s «persistent refusal to acknowledge Costa Rica as a viable removal option, their threats to send Abrego Garcia to African countries that never agreed to take him, and their misrepresentation to the Court that Liberia is now the only country available to Abrego Garcia, all reflect that whatever purpose was behind his detention, it was not for the ‘basic purpose’ of timely third-country removal,» Xinis said in December.
The administration asked the judge to rule on its request to have the injunction dissolved by April 17.
