Good morning.
The Trump administration is going to restrict the number of refugees it admits into the US next year to the token level of just 7,500 – and those spots will mostly be filled by white South Africans.

What was the other shooting by ICE agents in LA recently? Last week, federal agents shot an LA man who livestreams immigration enforcement operations on social media. Officials said at the time that Carlitos Ricardo Parias, a TikTok creator with a large following, had attempted to ram federal agents’ vehicles after agents surrounded him and boxed in his car.
