Judge Orders U.S. to Return Families Affected by Trump’s Family Separation Policy Who Were Deported

CBS News   A federal judge on Thursday ordered the U.S. government to return three migrant families affected by the family separation policy during President Trump’s first administration and then deported under his second, declaring the deportations “unlawful.” U.S. District Court Judge Dana Sabraw, an appointee of former President George W. Bush, ruled that the families’ deportations violated a court settlement designed to provide certain benefits to those affected by the first Trump administration’s policy of forcibly separating migrant children from their parents along the U.S.-Mexico border. That infamous weeks-long policy was scrapped in 2018 amid legal challenges and widespread public outcry. In 2023, the Biden administration entered into a court settlement in which the U.S. government committed to offering certain benefits to the families impacted by the policy and limiting the ability for officials to carry out a similar practice in the future.

Senate Launches Investigation Into Mayor Mamdani, Threatens Taking $2.2 Billion In Federal Funding

Republican Louisiana Sen. Bill Cassidy announced Thursday the launch of a probe into Democratic New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, citing concerns over his “recent actions that embolden antisemitism and put Jewish New Yorkers in harm’s way.”
In January, Mamdani decided not to renew an executive order signed by his predecessor, former New York City Mayor Eric Adams, in June 2025 that expanded the definition of antisemitism, as adopted by the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance, Politico reported Thursday. He also failed to renew a separate order signed by Adams in December 2025, which prevented city officials from participating in the boycott, divestment and sanctions (BDS) movement against Israel.

House to Vote Next Week to Require Citizenship Check and Photo ID for Voting, Upping Senate Pressure

The U.S. House of Representatives will vote next week on a new bill that would require all states to check both citizenship and photo identification before allowing voters to cast ballots, combining two widely popular election integrity provisions and ramping up pressure on a Senate that has been unwilling to consider either mandate.
House Majority Leader Steve Scalise, R-La., and Rep. Chip Roy, R-Texas, confirmed in an interview Wednesday evening with Just the News that the vote will be held next week for the Save America Act, which combines the two requirements that have passed the House individually but not received a vote in the GOP-controlled Senate.

U.S. Plastic Surgeons Organization Recommends Delaying Gender-Affirming Surgery Until Patient Is 19

The American Society of Plastic Surgeons published a position statement Tuesday recommending surgeons delay gender reassignment surgeries until a patient is 19-years-old, which earned praise from the Trump administration.
