Hey there, Patriots!

President Trump weighed in Tuesday on the disturbing disappearance of Nancy Guthrie, the 84-year-old mother of Today show co-host Savannah Guthrie, who is believed to have been abducted from her Arizona home.

Speaking from the Oval Office, Trump called the situation “terrible” and said he plans to personally reach out to Savannah Guthrie while offering additional federal support. He confirmed the FBI is involved and said he is open to sending more agents if needed.

Authorities say blood was found outside the home, and investigators are reviewing unverified ransom notes reportedly demanding Bitcoin. Trump stressed that despite past media clashes, this is about compassion and justice.

“This is very unusual,” the president said. “We’re going to find out what happened.”

Anyone with information on the disappearance of Nancy Guthrie is asked to call the tipline at 1-800-CALL-FBI.

✅TRACKING TRUMP✅

Curated by Mike Luso

Tom Homan just announced a major shift in Minnesota  -  700 federal law enforcement officers are leaving the Twin Cities, effective immediately. The border czar said the drawdown is possible because of "unprecedented cooperation" from local jails, which are now notifying ICE before releasing illegal immigrant inmates so agents can take custody inside secure facilities rather than hunting suspects in neighborhoods. After the withdrawal, around 2,000 federal agents will remain in the state. 

Meanwhile, the Small Business Administration just shut off the loan spigot to foreign nationals  -  beginning next month, applicants for the agency's primary small business loan program must be 100 percent American citizens or American nationals. No exceptions.

🔔Trump Admin Pulls Agents from Minnesota 🔔

Tom Homan announced Wednesday that 700 federal law enforcement officers will immediately leave Minnesota, citing what he called unprecedented cooperation from local jails. The border czar made the announcement at a Minneapolis press conference, saying the withdrawal represents a roughly 25 percent reduction in federal presence. Around 2,000 federal agents will remain in the state after the drawdown, most concentrated in the Twin Cities area encompassing Minneapolis and St. Paul. Before the surge, Minnesota had approximately 150 federal immigration personnel operating in the state. The 700-agent withdrawal does not include special agents conducting fraud investigations, who will remain to finish their work, nor does it include personnel assigned to officer safety and security.

Customs and Border Protection officers have been fully integrated into the ICE team structure under one unified chain of command rather than two separate command structures. Local and county jails across Minnesota are increasingly notifying ICE before inmates are released, allowing federal agents to assume custody inside secure facilities. Homan said the jail coordination requires only one or two officers to take custody of a criminal alien target, rather than eight or ten officers going into the community to make arrests. He described the approach as more efficient and safer for the public, law enforcement officers, and detainees themselves.

Local agencies are not being asked to hold inmates beyond their scheduled release times or to enforce immigration law themselves. ICE agents simply assume custody at jails immediately upon release, reducing public safety risks and allowing federal officers to focus on high-priority targets. The border czar credited the shift to increased coordination with Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, Attorney General Keith Ellison, and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey, all of whom he urged to allow local jails to communicate with federal law enforcement. An unprecedented number of counties are now allowing ICE to take custody of illegal aliens before they hit the streets, Homan said. The cooperation has expanded significantly in recent weeks.

Homan warned that any further reductions would depend on an end to assaults, interference, and threats against ICE and Border Patrol agents. Federal authorities would continue to respond aggressively to hostile incidents. Federal agents have met with stiff resistance in their operations across Minneapolis and St. Paul, with organized agitators harassing and obstructing law enforcement. Federal agents shot and killed anti-ICE agitator Alex Pretti last week, marking the second protester killed by federal agents in Minneapolis last month. U.S. Border Patrol commander Greg Bovino left Minnesota shortly after Homan's arrival in the Twin Cities.

Republicans on Capitol Hill have called for investigations into the funding streams behind the organized resistance. Homan said his ultimate goal is a complete drawdown of federal presence in Minnesota. The withdrawal is part of the administration's broader immigration enforcement strategy, which prioritizes public safety and national security threats while continuing to enforce immigration laws nationwide. Homan emphasized that local partners are not being required to become immigration officers. The coordination allows federal resources to be deployed more efficiently across the country.

💰 Trump's nomination of Kevin Warsh to lead the Federal Reserve sent gold and silver prices plunging, erasing billions in market value and triggering the worst gold selloff since 2013 and silver's steepest one-day drop since 1980. Warsh is viewed as a free-market inflation hawk whose appointment strengthened the dollar to its highest level in months and reshaped expectations for monetary policy. Investors who had piled into precious metals as hedges against inflation and policy uncertainty rushed to exit their positions after months of record-breaking rallies.

God bless,
