In a speech on Wednesday, the border czar cited "unprecedented collaboration" with local officials.

U.S. Attorney for Washington, D.C. Jeanine Pirro faced backlash after trying to walk back her remarks, which vowed to prosecute gun crimes in Washington, D.C.

In an interview on Fox News this week, Pirro insisted that anyone who brought a gun into the district should "count on going to jail."

Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem announced that every officer from her department working in Minneapolis would be equipped with a body-worn camera.

"I just spoke with @RealTomHoman @ICEDirector @CBPCommissioner," Noem revealed Monday on X. "Effective immediately we are deploying body cameras to every officer in the field in Minneapolis."

U.S. District Court Judge Margaret Garnett ruled that Luigi Mangione will not face a death sentence for the alleged murder of health insurance CEO Brian Thompson.

White House aide Stephen Miller was reportedly behind false claims that slain activist Alex Pretti was planning to "massacre" law enforcement when federal agents killed him in Minnesota on Saturday.

According to Axios, Miller ordered Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem to make the claim about Pretti after he died.

Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) said that President Donald Trump would be making a "mistake" if he does not fire Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem.

"President Trump: I make a direct appeal to immediately fire Secretary Noem," Fetterman said, according to Daily Mail's Jon Michael Raasch. "DO NOT make the mistake President Biden made for not firing a grossly incompetent DHS Secretary."

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt refused to defend aide Stephen Miller after he described Alex Pretti, a 37-year-old nurse gunned down by Border Patrol, as an "assassin" who "tried to murder federal agents."

During Monday's White House briefing, one reporter noted that the Department of Homeland Security had accused Pretti of wanting to do "maximum damage" and "massacre law enforcement."

The Department of Homeland Security reportedly confirmed that some of the officers involved in the shooting of 37-year-old Alex Pretti had body-worn cameras activated at the time of the incident.

On Monday, a DHS spokesperson admitted to Fox News correspondent Bill Melugin that "several federal agents" were wearing the cameras when Pretti was shot to death in Minnesota over the weekend.

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) revealed that President Donald Trump has agreed to allow his state law enforcement agencies to "conduct an independent investigation."

On Monday, Trump first reported that he had "a very good call" with Walz despite ongoing acrimony between the two leaders over immigration enforcement in Minneapolis.

FBI Director Kah Patel reversed course after receiving backlash over his assertion that it was illegal to bring a firearm to a protest.

On Sunday, Patel responded to a DHS officer killing Alex Pretti by suggesting the 37-year-old nurse had deserved it because he legally carried a handgun while video recording ICE and Border Patrol agents.

Rep. Tom Suozzi (D-NY) admitted that he had "failed" after voting for Department of Homeland Security funding that enabled the federal government's reign of violence in Minnesota.
