Breitbart: Twelve States Join ICE's National Deportation Campaign
A dozen states, including Florida, Texas, and Arizona, are collaborating with federal immigration agencies to deport illegal aliens, enhancing efforts under the Trump administration. Local agencies are forming task forces, with 121 departments participating, focusing on criminal aliens.
While some governors, including Democrats, express support for deporting criminal illegals, states like Virginia and California remain resistant to these policies. The shift marks a return to practices prevalent in the 1990s and early 2000s, previously curtailed by concerns over racial profiling.

GB News: EU to 'weaponise' life-saving medicines sent to US to fight back against Trump's 'dependencies'
EU officials are considering leveraging exports of essential medicines and medical devices to counter Donald Trump's trade policies. They have identified 260 critical products, including antibiotics and radiation therapies, that the US relies on from Europe. This strategy aims to demonstrate that Europe holds significant leverage over Trump amid rising concerns about his threats to European security and trade.
The EU's approach includes repurposing a 2021 document analyzing supply chains to show leaders their potential influence. While targeting healthcare exports raises ethical concerns, the EU believes it could serve as a "shock treatment" to convey the consequences of Trump's actions. Additionally, the EU is planning substantial investments in defense to reduce dependence on US security.
