I don't want us to take over Gaza. I don't want my tax dollars spent in the Middle East. Not our neighborhood, not our problem. Let the wealthy Arab League members and Israel sort out their neighborhood's issues. .

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth on Monday visited the southern border on his first trip as defense secretary. “Border security is national security. Guys and gals of my generation have spent decades in foreign countries, guarding other people’s borders. It’s about time we secure our own border,” said Hegseth, a combat veteran who served in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Guantanamo Bay. “Tens of millions of people have poured across this border under Joe Biden’s administration, unchecked. We have no idea who they are. We have no idea where they’re coming from. We have no idea what their intentions are. In many ways, under the Biden administration, and Tom knows this better than anybody else. They were facilitated their entry into this country. That stops now under President and the Defense Department is proud to be a part of it. We have defended other places and other spaces. We will defend this line.”

Ed Martin, the US Attorney for the District of Columbia, reached out to Elon Musk on Monday, vowing to take legal action against anyone who tries to sabotage the Department of Government Efficiency's shakeup of the federal government. We must keep all our American government employees safe and we must protect the American people's property. Anyone imperiling others [is] violating our laws. I ask that you utilize me and my staff to assist in protecting the DOGE work and the DOGE workers. Any threats, confrontations or other actions in any way that impact their work may break numerous laws. Let me assure you of this: We will pursue any and all legal action against anyone who impedes your work or threatens your people. We will not act like the previous administration who looked the other way as the Antifa and BLM rioters as well as thugs with guns trashed our capital city. We will protect DOGE and other workers no matter what.

In an act of extraordinary friendship to our country, El Salvador has agreed to the most unprecedented and extraordinary migratory agreement anywhere in the world. The country will continue accepting Salvadoran deportees who illegally entered the US. It will also accept for deportation any illegal alien in the United States who is a criminal from any nationality, be they MS-13 or Tren de Aragua and house them in its jails. In addition, President Nayib Bukele has offered to house in his jails dangerous American criminals in custody in our country, including those of US citizenship and legal residents.

Under an agreement with the Trump administration, Texas National Guard soldiers can now arrest and detain people for entering the U.S. illegally from Mexico. Texas’ pact with U.S. Customs and Border Protection, signed Friday, gives the Guard full authority to investigate, arrest and detain migrants for purposes of deporting them.

California lawmakers on Monday approved a “Trump-proofing” bill package that includes $50 million in state funding to challenge President Trump’s policies in court and provide legal aid for illegal aliens. Californians are being threatened by an out-of-control administration in Washington that doesn’t care about the Constitution, that thinks there are no limits to its path. Here in California, there are 1.8 million undocumented people [illegal aliens]. People who pay about $8.5 billion in state and local taxes every single year. They raise families, and they contribute to our communities. These law-abiding [Not, they entered the country illegally] immigrants [illegal aliens], they are Californians [Not] — they are not criminals [Illegally entering the country makes them criminals]. Assembly Speaker Robert Rivas

President Trump is delaying tariffs on Canada for 30 days due to Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau agreeing to appoint a fentanyl czar and place 24/7 security officers on the border. Canada is implementing our $1.3 billion border plan, reinforcing the border with new choppers, technology and personnel, enhanced coordination with our American partners, and increased resources to stop the flow of fentanyl. Nearly 10,000 frontline personnel are and will be working on protecting the border.

I have also signed a new intelligence directive on organized crime and fentanyl and we will be backing it with $200 million. Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau

After Secretary of State Marco Rubio criticized Panama on Sunday, the country is offering free passage for US warships through the Panama Canal, and its withdraw from China’s "Belt & Road" lending program. I don't imagine that will be enough to satisfy.
