BREAKING: Federal government is moving to take over the California National Guard and deploy 2,000 soldiers, Governor Newsom says.

Trump:

If Governor Gavin Newscum, of California, and Mayor Karen Bass, of Los Angeles, can’t do their jobs, which everyone knows they can’t, then the Federal Government will step in and solve the problem, RIOTS & LOOTERS, the way it should be solved!!!

US officials speaking to Reuters:

The Russian response to the Ukrainian drone attacks is not over yet, and we expect new, extensive attacks.

A full Russian response is expected within days and will likely include various types of air capabilities.

The Russian response will be disproportionate to the Ukrainian operation that used drones.

White House:

In recent days, violent mobs have attacked ICE Officers and Federal Law Enforcement Agents carrying out basic deportation operations in Los Angeles, California.

In the wake of this violence, California’s feckless Democrat leaders have completely abdicated their responsibility to protect their citizens.

That is why President Trump has signed a Presidential Memorandum deploying 2,000 National Guardsmen to address the lawlessness that has been allowed to fester.

FBI Director Kash Patel:

Hit a cop, you’re going to jail… doesn’t matter where you came from, how you got here, or what movement speaks to you. If the local police force won’t back our men and women on the thin blue line, FBI will.

JD Vance:

The president will deploy the national guard to quell these protests, and any person who violates the law or obstructs law enforcement will be aggressively prosecuted.

For the far left rioters, some helpful advice; peaceful protest is good. Rioting and obstructing justice is not.

US Secretary of State Rubio:

The United States condemns in the strongest possible terms the attempted assassination of Senator Miguel Uribe.

This is a direct threat to democracy and the result of the violent leftist rhetoric coming from the highest levels of the Colombian government.

President Petro needs to dial back the inflammatory rhetoric and protect Colombian officials.

US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth:

The Department of Defense is mobilizing the National Guard immediately to support federal law enforcement in Los Angeles. And, if violence continues, active duty Marines at Camp Pendleton will also be mobilized — they are on high alert.

California Governor Newsom calls the Trump administration "deranged"

Israel’s Army Turns to Women

Facing a growing manpower shortage, Israeli Army now counts women as 1 in 5 combat soldiers — a tenfold increase in a decade.

Haredi draft evasion prompted the shift: only a small fraction of 19,000 conscription orders led to enlistment.

Women now serve in light infantry, combat intelligence, search & rescue, and more — making up 60% of some border battalions.

Trump:

Protesters wearing masks will no longer be tolerated.

Vanishing Generations

From South Korea to Portugal, global birth rates are collapsing.

Shrinking populations, aging workforces, and mounting pressure on economies are no longer future problems — they’re already here.

Russian evacuation team that arrived to search for the pilot is filming the crash site of the Su-35S fighter jet—shot down yesterday in the Kursk region—from close range.

French activists aboard the Gaza Freedom Flotilla ship Madleen appealed to French President Macron.

The activists asked Macron to put pressure on Israel to allow safe passage to Gaza and to take action to mobilise the international community.

Miguel Uribe successfully completed surgery and "came out well," according to his wife.

Uribe has entered "the critical hours" of recovery.
