Trump 2nd term updates: Trump says USAID is run by 'radical lunatics'

Trump and Prime Minister Keir Starmer of the United Kingdom talked Sunday about the release of Israeli-British national Emily Damari from Hamas and how to promote a "fair bilateral economic relationship" between the two countries, according to the White House.

A Downing Street spokesperson said Starmer paid tribute to Trump’s role in securing the ceasefire and hostages deal in Gaza and “They also discussed trade and the economy, with the Prime Minister setting out how we are deregulating to boost growth.

“President Trump opened by sending his condolences to the Prime Minister on the loss of his brother. The Prime Minister thanked President Trump for his kind words and congratulated him on his inauguration,” the spokesperson said.

In a post on X thus morning, Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced that Belarus “just unilaterally released an innocent American, ANASTASSIA Nuhfer, who was taken under JOE BIDEN!”

Rubio credited Trump and Chris Welby Smith, the State Department’s deputy assistant secretary for Eastern Europe, for the release.

Nuhfer was detained in early December 2024 and visited by a consular officer about three weeks ago, a State Department spokesperson said.

Acting Deputy Attorney General Emil Bove, the top Trump appointee in the Justice Department, is currently in Chicago to “personally observe DHS immigration enforcement operations and support the efforts of FBI, DEA, ATF, USMS, and federal prosecutors who are assisting DHS in this critical mission,” a DOJ spokesperson told ABC News.

The department declined to provide any additional details about Bove’s precise location or the planned “enforcement operations” he will be overseeing.

His presence on the ground, however, further highlights how the Trump administration plans to involve the highest level officials at DOJ as part of its broader show of force on immigration enforcement.

Immigrations and Customs Enforcement said in a statement Sunday that it, "along with federal partners, including the FBI, ATF, DEA, CBP and the U.S. Marshals Service, began conducting enhanced targeted operations today in Chicago to enforce U.S. immigration law and preserve public safety and national security by keeping potentially dangerous criminal aliens out of our communities."

The Coast Guard said it's helping transport migrants who are in the country illegally and who are in locations where there aren't Defense Department assets.

In a Saturday news release, the Coast Guard said it is conducting flights between Texas and California to get migrants to DOD bases to be removed from the country.

"Border czar" Tom Homan said the Trump administration is planning to use military aircraft every day to help carry out large-scale deportations.

For the first time ever, the U.S. government is using military aircraft to transport migrants out of the U.S., Homan said.
