A state where Donald Trump's endorsement doesn't seem to matter much
CNN
There's a political civil war happening today in Idaho, where Republican Gov. Brad Little is trying to fight off a primary challenge from his own lieutenant governor, Janice McGeachin.
McGeachin drew national attention in 2021 when she issued a series of executive orders related to Covid-19 when Little left the state. She also drew the attention of former President Donald Trump, who endorsed her candidacy. But can McGeachin actually win? I reached out to Melissa Davlin, the host of Idaho Public Television's "Idaho Reports," for that answer -- and more. Our conversation, conducted via email and lightly edited for flow, is below.

Hundreds of Border Patrol officers are mobilizing to bolster the president’s crackdown on immigration in snowy Minneapolis, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said Sunday, as tensions between federal law enforcement and local counterparts flare after an ICE-involved shooting last week left a mother of three dead.

Nationwide outcry over the killing of a Minneapolis woman by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent spilled into the streets of cities across the US on Saturday, with protesters demanding the removal of federal immigration authorities from their communities and justice for the slain Renee Good.

Since early December the US Coast Guard and other military branches have boarded and taken control of five oil ships that had previously been sanctioned, all either accused of being in the process of transporting Venezuelan oil or on their way to take on oil that has been subject to US sanctions since President Donald Trump began a pressure campaign against the leadership of the country during his first term.
