SUMMARY: One week after taking office, President Donald Trump is actively engaging with Republican lawmakers to advance his ambitious agenda, particularly focusing on funding for a crackdown on undocumented migrants across the U.S. Federal law enforcement is conducting raids from Newark to Miami. Church groups are educating migrants about their rights, advocating for community support. Tensions with Colombia arose over deported migrants, but the situation eased after tariffs were threatened. Additionally, Trump controversially fired 18 inspectors General without the required notice, prompting bipartisan concerns about oversight protections. The Trump administration is also making notable changes in its cabinet personnel.

House Republicans are in Miami for three-days of strategy sessions, sculpting their legislative agenda and planning to get it passed. The meeting, taking place at a Trump-owned golf club, comes as the new presidents key domestic priority kicks into high gear: stepped up immigration arrests in cities across the country. Overnight, a close U.S. ally averted a potential trade war over mass deportations. NBCs Julie Tsirkin reports from Washington.

SUMMARY: Thaddeus, born in Ohio, is now the world’s oldest baby conceived from an embryo frozen in 1994—over 30 years ago. His adoptive parents, Tim and Lindsey Pierce, who had struggled to conceive for seven years, received the embryo through a Christian embryo adoption agency. The embryo was originally created by Linda Archer and her then-husband using early IVF technology. Despite the embryo’s age, doctors confirm embryos frozen correctly can be as healthy as fresh ones. Thaddeus’s birth raises ethical questions about frozen embryos’ future and ownership, with around one million frozen in U.S. storage. Linda notes Thaddeus resembles her 30-year-old daughter.
