President Donald Trump’s special envoy to the Middle East is leaving Russia with Marc Fogel, an American teacher who was jailed in Russia and deemed “wrongfully detained” by the United States, according to a statement from national security adviser Mike Waltz. Waltz said that an “exchange” was made but did not specify what it entailed on Russia’s part, adding that it was a show of “good faith” from the Russians and a step in the right direction toward ending the war in Ukraine. This is a developing story and will be updated.

As a shrinking number of Transportation Security Administration agents work to keep hourslong security lines moving despite not being paid, President Donald Trump stepped into the fray Saturday, announcing he will send Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers to airports by Monday if Congress doesn’t agree to a plan to end the partial government shutdown.
