Trump directs ICE to expand deportation efforts in America’s largest cities

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
President Donald Trump on Sunday said ICE must «expand efforts to detain and deport» illegal immigrants in «America’s largest [c]ities,» including Los Angeles, Chicago and New York.»
The president’s comment came in a Truth Social post on Sunday evening after a week of anti-ICE protests that have taken place in major cities across the country, with most demonstrations remaining peaceful while others turned into violent riots in places like LA and Portland.
«Our Nation’s ICE Officers have shown incredible strength, determination, and courage as they facilitate a very important mission, the largest Mass Deportation Operation of Illegal Aliens in History,» Trump wrote. «Every day, the Brave Men and Women of ICE are subjected to violence, harassment, and even threats from Radical Democrat Politicians, but nothing will stop us from executing our mission, and fulfilling our Mandate to the American People.»
«ICE Officers are herewith ordered, by notice of this TRUTH, to do all in their power to achieve the very important goal of delivering the single largest Mass Deportation Program in History,» the president added.

The immigration protests began in LA on June 7, after local ICE raids resulted in hundreds of arrests, including the arrests of those with violent criminal histories. The president immediately deployed the National Guard to the area when protests started two weeks ago, garnering criticism from Democrats insisting their presence would only escalate tensions.
As the protests and riots expanded nationally, continuing into this weekend, violence also took hold of certain crowds, injuring both federal and local law enforcement officials, as well as demonstrators.

On Saturday, an innocent bystander was fatally shot during an organized protest in Salt Lake City, Utah, when two event peacekeepers in neon vests opened fire on a suspect, Arturo Gamboa, 24, who ran toward the crowd with a rifle, and ended up shooting the wrong person.
In spite of the protests, Trump doubled down on his efforts to deport illegal immigrants in his Sunday post.

«In order to achieve this, we must expand efforts to detain and deport Illegal Aliens in America’s largest Cities, such as Los Angeles, Chicago, and New York, where Millions upon Millions of Illegal Aliens reside,» he said. «These, and other such Cities, are the core of the Democrat Power Center, where they use Illegal Aliens to expand their Voter Base, cheat in Elections, and grow the Welfare State, robbing good paying Jobs and Benefits from Hardworking American Citizens.»
He added that he wants ICE officers «to know that REAL Americans are cheering [them] on every day.»

«The American People want our Cities, Schools, and Communities to be SAFE and FREE from Illegal Alien Crime, Conflict, and Chaos,» he wrote. «That’s why I have directed my entire Administration to put every resource possible behind this effort, and reverse the tide of Mass Destruction Migration that has turned once Idyllic Towns into scenes of Third World Dystopia. Our Federal Government will continue to be focused on the REMIGRATION of Aliens to the places from where they came, and preventing the admission of ANYONE who undermines the domestic tranquility of the United States.»
ICE has organized several high-profile raids across the country as part of the president’s campaign promise to deliver mass-deportations. Trump promised to prioritize criminal illegal aliens, but critics allege the administration is separating families and targeting non-criminal workers.

«I don’t think the president understands that we have entire sectors of our economy that cannot function without immigrant labor,» LA Mayor Karen Bass said on «State of the Union» Sunday.

The Trump administration called for a halt on deportation raids on agricultural sites, hotels and restaurants, and not to arrest «noncriminal collaterals» the New York Times reported. The move came out of fears that the sweeping raids were hurting key industries in the U.S.

Democratic strategist says party lacks ‘moral authority’ on Texas redistricting fight

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
Democrats are fighting tooth and nail to stop Texas lawmakers’ plan to redraw the state’s congressional map, but critics, including one prominent member of their own party, say they don’t exactly hold the moral high ground.
Democrat legislators have fled the state to avoid votes on redistricting, which is expected to add more Republican seats to Congress for the Lone Star State. They’re getting the rock-star treatment as they visit blue states, where several governors have vowed to gerrymander Republicans out of their own Congressional delegations in retaliation for the Texas effort.

However, Democratic strategist Julian Epstein told «Fox News Live» on Saturday that his party is not immune from criticism, as many blue states have already gerrymandered in a way that limits Republican congressional representation.
«No, I think they don’t have the moral authority, and there’s a lot of pearl-clutching going on,» he said.
Several blue states, including Massachusetts, Connecticut and New Mexico, have no Republicans in their House delegations. And many feature oddly-drawn districts, seemingly crafted to limit GOP representation.
«The Democrats don’t have clean hands here. You look at states like Massachusetts, New Jersey[…] Illinois, California, and Democrats have effectively gerrymandered Republicans out of existence,» Epstein added.
NETWORKS POUNCE ON REPUBLICAN REDISTRICTING. THEY DIDN’T CARE WHEN DEMOCRATS DID IT

J.B. Pritzker, governor of Illinois, left, and State Representative Gene Wu, a Democrat from Texas, during a news conference at the Democratic Party of DuPage County office in Carol Stream, Illinois, US, on Sunday, Aug. 3, 2025.
Epstein cautioned that the nationwide redistricting battle could create a «race to the bottom,» and that leaving Republicans and Democrats in states led by the opposite parties could lead to people feeling left out of the democratic process. Epstein cited New Jersey, in which Trump garnered 46% of the vote in 2024, but Republicans only have three out of the 12 congressional seats.
Meanwhile, Texas state Rep. Brian Harrison, a Republican, told Fox News Digital on Saturday that Democrats are guilty of «total hypocrisy and faux outrage.»
«The dirty little secret is Democrats have no problem whatsoever with states redrawing their congressional maps to maximize partisan political advantage. They’re just furious that Republican states are starting to redraw their maps,» Harrison said.

«It’s because Democrat state after Democrat state, for a decade, has been gerrymandering the hell out of their congressional maps,» he said.
«Massachusetts, Connecticut, Vermont, Rhode Island, Delaware, all of these states have zero. If you’re a Republican in those Democrat states, you don’t have any voice in Congress,» he added. «And [there are] many, many more that have given you just one seat, Oregon, I think Maine and Maryland.»
In California, a special election is likely to occur in November to counteract the Texas redistricting plan.

«We are talking about emergency measures to respond to what’s happening in Texas, and we will nullify what happens in Texas,» California Gov. Gavin Newsom said on Friday with some Texas state lawmakers.
«We’ll pick up five seats with the consent of the people. And that’s the difference between the approach we’re taking and the approach they’re taking,» Newsom added. «We’re doing it on a temporary basis. We’re doing it in a fully transparent way and we’re doing it by asking the people of the state of California for their consent and support.»
Harrison explained that Texas’s redistricting push has numerous reasons behind it, including the population growth in the Lone Star state since the last census.

Video captures horrific moment chairlift snaps at Russian resort, sends terrified tourists plummeting

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
Harrowing footage has captured the terrifying moment a chairlift suddenly collapsed at a remote mountain resort in Russia, sending several people plunging into the deep waters of a lake while others tumbled violently to the rocky ground below.
The catastrophic incident left eight injured and another 13 clinging for their lives amid the rugged terrain of the Kabardino-Balkaria region in Nalchik, according to local reports.
Emergency responders said decades of wear and tear of the cables, which were originally installed in 1968, are believed to be «the preliminary cause of the accident,» Russian news agency TASS said.
Surveillance video shows riders screaming as the chairs snapped without warning. Some of the 21 victims who were on the chairlift crashed into trees, while another video captured a tourist falling to the ground.
