A federal judge ruled on Tuesday that the Biden administration must reinstate the Associated Press’ inclusion in the presidential press pool, granting the news organization access once again to exclusive venues such as Air Force One, where only select members of the press are allowed to engage with President Trump.
U.S. District Judge Trevor McFadden of Washington, D.C. — who was appointed to the bench by Trump in 2017 — issued a temporary delay on the enforcement of his ruling. This pause, which lasts five days, gives the White House until Sunday to seek a higher court’s intervention.
The Associated Press had been excluded from pool coverage after declining to adopt the term “Gulf of America” in its reporting, a name President Trump had assigned to the Gulf of Mexico.

The Viznitzer Rebbe, HaRav Yisroel Hager Shlita, of Bnei Brak, who is currently in California undergoing medical treatment, was originally scheduled to return to Eretz Yisroel in time for Pesach. However, due to health concerns the Rebbe will now remain in Los Angeles for Yom Tov. Sources close to the Rebbe’s court tell YWN that doctors have advised against any long-distance travel at this time. As a result, plans for his return to Eretz Yisroel have been canceled, and the Rebbe will conduct the Pesach Sedarim and Yom Tov from his current location in Los Angeles. This unexpected change has altered the plans of many Chassidim both in Eretz Yisroel and abroad who had hoped to be with the Rebbe for Yom Tov.

Nearly 200 family members of Americans slain in the October 7 Hamas massacre have filed a bombshell federal lawsuit against Bashar Masri — a celebrated Palestinian-American developer — accusing him of knowingly aiding and abetting the terrorist group behind the deadliest attack on Jews since the Holocaust. Masri, long hailed in elite diplomatic circles as a “moderate” visionary and touted by 60 Minutes as a beacon of hope in the West Bank, is now facing explosive allegations that he helped build the very infrastructure Hamas used to wage war — including tunnels, rocket launch sites, and command centers hidden beneath his luxury hotels and industrial parks in Gaza.

Kristi Noem stated that the U.S. could potentially send tens of thousands more convicted criminal migrants to El Salvador’s notorious Center for Terrorism Confinement (CECOT), following a new ruling handed down by the Supreme Court.
“You’ll see us continuing to partner with El Salvador. CECOT has the capacity for 40,000 individuals, and [El Salvador President Nayib Bukele] has said they’ll take as many as we want to send,” the Department of Homeland Security secretary said.
“There’s 14,000 there now, and he said he plans to build another prison right next to it.”
The announcement came in the wake of a federal enforcement operation on Tuesday morning in Phoenix, where Noem oversaw a raid that led to the arrest of three migrants with felony convictions.

During the joint press conference of US President Donald Trump and Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu following their meeting on Monday, Trump said: “I don’t understand why Israel ever gave up Gaza.” Responding to a reporter’s question about Gaza, Trump said: “You know how I feel about the Gaza Strip. I think it’s an incredible piece of important real estate. I think it’s something that if we were involved in, having a peace force like the US there controlling and owning the Gaza Strip would be a good thing. Because right now, for years and years, all I hear about is killing and Hamas and problems.

U.S. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth said Tuesday the Panama Canal faces ongoing threats from China, but that together the U.S. and Panama will keep it secure. Speaking at a ribbon cutting for a new U.S.-financed dock at the Vasco Nuñez de Balboa Naval Base after a meeting with Panama President José Raúl Mulino, Hegseth said the U.S. will not allow China or any other country to threaten the canal’s operation. “To this end, the United States and Panama have done more in recent weeks to strengthen our defense and security cooperation than we have in decades,” he said. Hegseth alluded to ports at either end of the canal that are controlled by a Hong Kong consortium, which is in the process of selling its controlling stake to another consortium including BlackRock Inc.
