With that, here is all the news you missed:
In a striking and unusual move, Chief Justice John Roberts issued a public statement pushing back against Donald Trump’s calls to impeach U.S. District Judge James Boasberg.
Segregated facilities are no longer prohibited within federal contractors. The Trump administration removed a provision from federal contracting regulations that had been in place since the 1960s, which had explicitly barred companies from maintaining segregated facilities.
Minnesota Republican State Senator Justin Eichorn, who introduced the "Trump Derangement" bill (making Trump Derangement Syndrome a mental disorder in Minnesota), has been arrested for allegedly soliciting a minor.
Federal Judge Theodore Chuang of Maryland has ordered Donald Trump, Elon Musk, and DOGE to reinstate nearly all of USAID, stating that DOGE's actions likely violated multiple provisions of the U.S. Constitution.
The Trump administration is considering significant reductions in federal funding for domestic HIV prevention programs.
President Donald Trump has dismissed the two Democratic commissioners of the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC), Alvaro Bedoya and Rebecca Kelly Slaughter, according to sources familiar with the situation.
The White House has firmly rejected a call from French politician Raphaël Glucksmann to return the Statue of Liberty to France. Glucksmann, a member of the European Parliament, suggested that the U.S. no longer embodies the values represented by the statue, which was gifted by France in 1886. He stated, "We gave it to you as a gift, but apparently you despise it. So it will be just fine here at home."
The Department of Defense is set to reduce its civilian workforce by approximately 50,000 to 60,000 positions, aiming for a 5% to 8% reduction.
Jeanette Vizguerra, an undocumented mother and immigration activist previously recognized in Time's 100 Most Influential list, was detained by ICE agents in Colorado while on a break from her job at a Target store.
In a phone call, Donald Trump proposed a comprehensive ceasefire in Ukraine, but Russian President Vladimir Putin agreed only to a limited 30-day halt on attacks targeting energy infrastructure, falling short of a full cessation of hostilities.
See you in the morning.
