Trump said in an interview today that his administration is creating a “self-deportation” program.
Under the program, the United States would provide a stipend and a plane ticket to leave the country, Trump said in an interview on Fox Noticias.
He went on to say the government would work with immigrants to come back to the United States “if they’re good.”
Administration officials have been urging immigrants to self-deport, and the Department of Homeland Security has launched a multimillion-dollar ad campaign featuring Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem.
Trump said whether Kilmar Abrego Garcia can return to the United States will be up to the Bukele administration in El Salvador.
“That’s really a decision that will be made by the government of El Salvador,” Trump told Rachel Campos-Duffy in an interview that aired on Fox Noticias today.
The U.S. Supreme Court ruled last week that the federal government must “facilitate” Abrego Garcia’s return to the United States. Earlier today a Department of Homeland Security official said that the United States could “facilitate” Abrego Garcia’s entry if he appears at a port of entry but that he could be removed from the country a second time upon his return.
The judge presiding over the case said today that she is weighing contempt proceedings against the administration over its inaction to bring Abrego Garcia back.
The State Department today disputed details from a White House Office of Management and Budget memo that proposed “eliminating funding” by the United States for NATO.
State Department spokesperson Tammy Bruce did not definitively say that cutting all NATO funding was off the table, but she repeatedly stressed that no plan was final until Trump submits the complete federal budget to Congress.
The OMB proposal, reviewed by NBC News, would cut funding for the State Department and remnants of the U.S. Agency for International Development to $28.4 billion — nearly half of last year’s budget.
The Trump administration recommended slashing contributions to more than 20 international organizations by 89% — from $1.4 billion to $169 million — including “eliminating funding” for the United Nations and NATO, according to the memo.
“It really makes me concerned when I see the word ‘eliminate,’” Bruce said, adding she has traveled with Secretary of State Marco Rubio to NATO headquarters, where he “reiterated our complete commitment to NATO, as has the president of the United States.”
Bruce said the idea of eliminating U.S. funding for NATO “couldn’t be further from the truth,” adding, “This is about making NATO stronger.”
The proposed budget would also cut foreign assistance by 56% to $16.9 billion, which includes $2.1 billion for a new “America First Opportunities Fund” while significantly scaling back funding for global health, humanitarian assistance and security assistance.
OMB spokeswoman Alexandra McCandless previously said in a statement, “No final funding decisions have been made.”
A final budget proposal is expected to be submitted to Congress this month.
Trump suggested today that his aide Walt Nauta, a former co-defendant in his classified documents case who hails from Guam, would one day be “taking over” as governor of the territory.
“Walt could be, you know, he’s thinking about going to Guam someday, and he’ll be taking over as governor, but we won’t mention that right now,” Trump said in remarks to present the Commander-in-Chief trophy to the Navy football team.
“He’s fantastic. He’s been with me for a long time, and he’s great,” Trump added.
Trump named Nauta, Sean Spicer, who was his first White House press secretary, and others to the Naval Academy’s board of visitors in March.
Nauta was charged in 2023 in connection with allegations of a scheme to help Trump retain classified documents after he left office following his first term and to obstruct investigators’ efforts. He pleaded not guilty, and the Justice Department dropped its case against him and another co-defendant in January.
Trump signed an executive order this afternoon aimed at lowering drug prices for Americans, one of several orders he signed today intended to reduce prices.
Previewing the order, White House officials said the administration would use Trump’s executive authorities to lower prices for seniors and improve upon the Medicare drug price negotiation program, including efforts to lower the costs of insulin and facilitating approvals for generic drugs. The officials shared few details of how they intend to secure those results.
“Specifics will have to wait for this process to play out, but we are confident we will eclipse the savings the Biden administration achieved in the first year,” a White House official told reporters on a call to preview the actions.
Former President Joe Biden launched an effort to lower drugs prices during his administration through his signature legislation, the Inflation Reduction Act.
Dan Caldwell, a special adviser to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, was escorted from the Pentagon today in connection with a broader leak investigation at the Defense Department.
Caldwell was placed on administrative leave for an unauthorized disclosure, an official said.
The investigation, announced weeks ago by Joe Kasper, Hegseth’s chief of staff, coninues, the official said. There was no further comment, the official said.
Reuters first reported Caldwell’s removal.
Shortly before a high-stakes hearing over Kilmar Abrego Garcia’s fate, a Department of Homeland Security official said the Trump administration could “facilitate” his presence in the United States if he showed up at a port of entry but offered no concrete steps the government had taken to secure his release from El Salvador.
The official also said Abrego Garcia could be removed from the United States a second time if he were to return.
Joseph Mazzara, acting general counsel at DHS, wrote in a court filing that he had been “authorized to represent that DHS is prepared to facilitate Abrego Garcia’s presence in the United States in accordance with those processes if he presents at a port of entry.”
The memo offered no evidence that the government took any steps to secure Garcia’s release by the government in El Salvador, and Mazzara wrote that “if Abrego Garcia does present at a port of entry, he would become subject detention by DHS” and that DHS would “either remove him to a third country or terminate his withholding of removal because of his membership in MS-13, a designated foreign terrorist organization, and remove him to El Salvador.”
U.S. District Judge Paula Xinis is once again holding a hearing after the Supreme Court required the administration to “’facilitate‘ Abrego Garcia’s release from custody in El Salvador.” But the administration has not informed the court of any steps it has taken to regain custody of Abrego Garcia, even after a White House meeting yesterday between President Donald Trump and Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele.
The court hearing is ongoing.
Kilmar Abrego Garcia’s wife called on Trump and Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele to “stop playing political games” with her husband’s life.
Jennifer Vasquez Sura vowed outside a federal court in Maryland this afternoon to “fight back” against the Bukele and Trump administrations, which have both indicated they have no plans to return Abrego Garcia to the United States.
The Trump administration, despite a Supreme Court decision requiring it to “facilitate” Abrego Garcia’s return to the United States, has argued it does not have the authority to get him back and indicated that resources for his return should be provided by the Salvadoran government.
Bukele told reporters he would not return Abrego Garcia after an Oval Office meeting with Trump yesterday, saying he does not have the unilateral power to “smuggle a terrorist into the United States.” Bukele, who has been a key ally in the Trump administration’s mass deportation efforts, called the idea of Abrego Garcia’s return to United States soil “preposterous.”
“My heart aches for my husband,” Sura said, surrounded by a crowd of protesters. “He should have been here leading our Easter prayers. Instead, I find myself pleading with the Trump administration and the Bukele administration to stop playing political games with the life of Kilmar.”
Trump is set to sign a presidential memorandum today aimed at stopping undocumented immigrants from obtaining Social Security benefits, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters at the daily briefing.
“The memorandum will direct the administration to ensure ineligible aliens are not receiving funds from the Social Security Act programs,” she said, adding that it would expand the agency’s fraud prosecutor program to at least 50 U.S. attorney offices and establish a Medicare and Medicaid fraud prosecution program in 15 U.S. attorney’s offices.
Leavitt said the memorandum would also require the Social Security Administration inspector general to investigate earnings reports for people ages 100 or older with mismatched Social Security records to combat identity theft.
“These taxpayer-funded benefits should be only for eligible taxpayers,” she said.
Undocumented immigrants do not qualify for Social Security benefits, but lawful permanent residents do if they meet certain criteria, including that they must have completed about 10 years of work and, for many, that they have maintained their resident status for five years.
There is no widespread evidence of undocumented immigrants’ obtaining Social Security benefits.
Asked for additional information, the White House cited an estimate from the Federation for American Immigration Reform, a conservative group that backs the administration’s claims that fraudulently obtained Social Security benefits by undocumented immigrants are prevalent.
The Social Security Administration did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, faced pushback from frustrated attendees at a town hall in Lee County this afternoon. The room got rowdiest when a person asked Grassley about the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia from El Salvador.
People started shouting “Due process!” at Grassley after he said he would not bring Abrego Garcia back because that’s “not a power of Congress.” After more shouting, Grassley placed the blame on El Salvador’s president, saying he is “not subject to our Supreme Court.”
Grassley told reporters after the town hall: “I would expect our president to act in good faith, and I think our president will do that of making those requests of the president of El Salvador. But whether or not — how the president of El Salvador will respond would be up to that president of El Salvador.”
Around 50 people packed into the municipal building in Fort Madison and pressed Grassley on a wide range of topics, including cuts to Social Security and Medicare, tax cuts through budget reconciliation, tariffs and voting legislation like the SAVE Act.
Grassley received a barrage of comments and questions about the Trump administration’s policies in general and his role in pushing back against the executive branch’s power. One person asked Grassley whether he was “proud” that he voted for Trump, to which Grassley replied, “There’s no president that I’ve agreed with 100% of the time.”
Grassley is one of the only congressional Republicans who has continued to hold in-person town halls even though Republican leadership discouraged its caucus from doing so.
Still, a Veterans Affairs employee who said he has taken multiple days off to attend one of Grassley’s forums said Grassley has consistently chosen to hold his meetings in the middle of the day, when most people are not available.
Several people were thankful for Grassley’s hosting in-person town halls, with one saying Rep. Miller Meeks, R-Iowa, seems to be “hiding in a closet.”
A collection of 19 good government groups has sent a letter to every member of the House to encourage them to appoint board members to an independent office that investigates ethics complaints against lawmakers and their staff.
As NBC News first reported in March, the Office of Congressional Conduct (OCC) has been effectively neutered without a board. This is the longest the watchdog office has been without a board since it was formed in 2008.
“We write to raise alarm that this has effectively closed the office and ended its work protecting the public interest through independent, nonpartisan ethics oversight of the House of Representatives,” the letter reads.
The board is appointed by House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., with recommendations from Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y. In March, a spokesman for Johnson said he is “working through the appointments process.” His office has not responded to a request for an update on the search.
A source familiar with the process told NBC News that Jeffries has submitted his nominations to the speaker’s office.
Among the groups writing to House members encouraging for the new board to be appointed are the Campaign Legal Center, Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, Democracy 21, Public Citizen, League of Women Voters of the United States, and the Project on Government Oversight.
Formerly known as the Office of Congressional Ethics, the OCC was established 15 years ago. It investigates complaints against members of the House and their employees, which could come from the public, the board or staff members. When warranted, it refers its findings to the House Ethics Committee, which can determine penalties or enforcement based on its review.
The office also has the ability to publish its reports to provide the public insight into the evidence it has collected.
Jeremy Lewin, a Department of Government Efficiency associate and close ally of Elon Musk, is now serving as the acting director of foreign assistance at the State Department, a State Department spokesperson confirmed to NBC News today.
Lewin was instrumental in the dismantling of the United States Agency for International Development. His appointment comes after Pete Marocco abruptly left his role as head of foreign assistance and amid steep proposed budget cuts in a memo reviewed by NBC News yesterday.
The Associated Press first reported Lewin’s appointment.
Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., called on the acting head the Social Security Administration, Leland Dudek, to resign as part of a “Social Security Day of Action” aimed at raising concerns about thousands of layoffs at the agency and any potential for further cuts.
At a news conference in New York today, Schumer slammed Trump, Elon Musk and the Department of Government Efficiency initiative for trying to “slash, eviscerate and even end Social Security.”
“They want him to cut the daylights out of the program and then leave,” Schumer said of Dudek, pointing to his status as an acting head of the agency. “Well, we’ve seen his audition and his work on the stage. He is incapable of doing the job. In fact, he’s a danger to all of the senior citizens here, all of the Social Security recipients across the country. Leland Dudek won’t protect seniors. Leland Dudek will hurt seniors. Leland Dudek should resign immediately.”
Schumer said Dudek is targeting field offices for closure, planning to close 6 out of 10 regional offices, and has sought to grant Musk and DOGE access to Americans’ sensitive personal information — actions that he said have created “massive service disruptions.”
Later today, former President Joe Biden is set to give his first major public post-presidency speech at a conference in Chicago aimed at discussing solutions to preserve Social Security benefits.
Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Ill., joined other top Democrats in calling for the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the Maryland resident who the administration said it mistakenly deported to a prison in El Salvador last month after an “administrative error.”
“Now is the time for my Republican colleagues to step up,” Durbin said in a statement this afternoon. “You can no longer stay silent in the face of a constitutional crisis. You must join Democrats in responding to this madness and demanding that Mr. Abrego Garcia is returned to the United States immediately.”
At an Oval Office meeting between Trump and Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele yesterday, Bukele said he harbors no intention of facilitating the return of Abrego Garcia to the U.S. The Trump administration has said El Salvador would need to handle Abrego Garcia’s return despite a Supreme Court decision requiring the Trump administration to facilitate bringing him back.
Last week, Durbin joined more than 20 senators in writing a letter that urged Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and Immigration and Customs Enforcement acting Director Todd Lyons to return Abrego Garcia.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., raised $9.6 million in the first quarter of 2025, new fundraising reports show, as the progressive Democrat barnstormed the country with fellow progressive Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., and spent heavily on fundraising ads.
Ocasio-Cortez’s haul is massive this far out from an election and is on par with how much some top Senate candidates raise in a quarter. Her campaign also reported spending more than $5 million over the first three months of the year.
According to an analysis from Andrew Arenge, a researcher at the University of Pennsylvania’s Program on Opinion Research and Election Studies, Ocasio-Cortez has been one of the top spenders on Meta fundraising ads so far this year. The $2 million she’s spent is just shy of how much she spent on the platform in all of 2024.
During an Oval Office meeting, Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele said he’s not going to return Kilmar Abrego Garcia, who was on a work permit in Maryland, back to the United States. In the same meeting, Trump floated deporting U.S. citizens, whom he describes as “homegrown criminals,” to foreign prisons. NBC News’ Garrett Haake reports for “TODAY” from the White House.
Sen. Dick Durbin’s, D-Ill., campaign raised just $43,000 during the first three months of the year, according to a new fundraising report, a lackluster figure as the 80-year-old prepares to announce whether he will seek re-election in 2026.
Durbin’s campaign ended the first fundraising quarter, which spanned January through March, with $1.6 million in its account, according to the report filed today with the Federal Election Commission.
Durbin, who serves as the top Democrat on the Senate Judiciary Committee, was elected to the Senate in 1996.
NEW HAVEN, Conn. — Rep. Ro Khanna, D-Calif., unleashed an early 2028 attack on Vice President JD Vance here today, attempting to frame Trump’s heir apparent as a threat to the Constitution while comparing him to Soviet dictator Joseph Stalin.
“Vance,” Khanna said in a speech at Yale Law School, “has not only declared war on the courts, but on the universities. And it is no accident. As Stephen Kotkin observed in his study of Stalin, strongmen do not fear recessions or even failed wars as much as they fear the university.”

Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced that the State Department has canceled $214 million worth of grants stemming from 139 programs.
“We are cleaning up the mess the previous administration left and rebuilding an agency that’s focused on putting America First,” Rubio said in a post to X.
Earlier today, the X account for the government cost-cutting effort known as the Department of Government Efficiency posted information about more than a dozen programs it had canceled, including those related to civic engagement, media and anti-disinformation initiatives.
NBC News has reached out to the State Department for further information.
A 58-year-old woman from Pennsylvania was charged with trespassing at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate on Saturday, according to court records.
The woman, identified as Adrienne Tajirian, of Norristown, Pennsylvania, had first been issued a trespass warning while attempting to enter Mar-a-Lago at 12:21 a.m. ET on Saturday, “in an effort to speak with President Trump,” the arrest report said.
Hours later, at 10:10 p.m. ET on Saturday, she was stopped in a vehicle at a security tent manned by Secret Service personnel and Palm Beach sheriff’s deputies and arrested for violating the written trespass warning, the report said. She stated afterward she came back to the property because “she felt she was invited to have dinner with Donald Trump Jr.,” it said.
She is scheduled to be arraigned in West Palm Beach on Thursday morning and was ordered by the court to not have any contact with Mar-a-Lago and Trump.
A man is facing a federal charge after allegedly threatening to kill Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard and her husband, the Justice Department announced Monday.
Aliakbar Mohammad Amin, 24, of Lilburn, Georgia, allegedly sent threatening text messages about Gabbard and her husband, Abraham Williams, from March 29 to April 1, the Justice Department said in a news release. He was charged with transmitting interstate threats.
Attorneys for Kilmar Abrego Garcia said in a filing today that the Trump administration has not even attempted to get the mistakenly deported man returned to the U.S., despite orders from a federal judge and the Supreme Court.
The lawyers noted the Supreme Court ordered the administration “to ‘facilitate’ Abrego Garcia’s release from custody in El Salvador.”
“The Government’s updates do not indicate that any steps have been taken to comply with this Court’s and the Supreme Court’s orders. There is no evidence that anyone has requested the release of Abrego Garcia,” they wrote in a filing ahead of a hearing later this afternoon.
Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele told reporters during a meeting with Trump in the Oval Office yesterday that he wouldn’t send Abrego Garcia back to the U.S., and Attorney General Pam Bondi said at the meeting that the U.S. did not want him returned.
In court filings, the administration argued it doesn’t have the authority to get him back. Abrego Garcia’s lawyers noted that the government delivered 10 more detainees to the El Salvador prison on Saturday, pursuant to a contract with the Salvadoran government.
“It can exercise those same contractual rights to request their release, as the detainees are being held ‘pending the United States’ decision on [their] long term disposition,’” Abrego Garcia’s team wrote.
Trump came into office promising the largest mass deportation in U.S history, targeting the more than 10 million unauthorized migrants living in the United States. Since then, data shows border crossings have plummeted, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) arrests have doubled, and the number of people in detention is at an all-time high.
NBC News is tracking immigration enforcement with data from ICE and the U.S. Customs and Border Protection. This page will be updated as new data is released.
A group of universities — including Brown University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology — and education groups filed a lawsuit on Tuesday seeking to halt the Energy Department’s cuts to federal research grants.
Last week, the Energy Department announced a new policy to reduce the funding of “indirect costs” of research grants to 15%.
However, the plaintiffs argue such cuts will “devastate scientific research at America’s universities” and “undermine” the nation’s status as a global leader in innovation.
Sen. Chris Van Hollen, D-Md., said he has not yet heard back from El Salvador President Nayib Bukele after he requested to meet with him about Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the Maryland man who the Justice Department says it mistakenly deported.
“If I don’t hear from him, and Abrego Garcia is not quickly returned, I do intend to go to El Salvador this week to show solidarity with his family,” Van Hollen told CNN, repeating a plan he announced yesterday.
“I also hope to visit this notorious prison to see Abrego Garcia to let him know his family and friends are very worried about him, as am I,” the senator said.
Abrego Garcia has never been charged criminally in the United States or El Salvador, according to court filings. The Supreme Court ruled last week that the Trump administration must “facilitate” Abrego Garcia’s release.
Trump hosted Bukele at the White House yesterday as the Central American country becomes critical to the administration’s mass deportation operations. At a meeting with Trump, Bukele said he would not return Abrego Garcia, calling the question “preposterous.”
Van Hollen emphasized the importance of the case for due process rights.
“If the president gets to shred the Constitution and ignore the Supreme Court in this case, it is a very short path to the president ignoring court orders in other cases,” he said.
Rep. Mikie Sherrill, D-N.J., is tapping into her party’s desire to fight Trump and billionaire Elon Musk in her first TV ads of the New Jersey gubernatorial primary, while also touting her military service.
“I know the world feels like it is on fire right now,” Sherrill says in one of the spots, first reported by the New Jersey Globe. “But I was trained in the Navy, that in a crisis, you run toward the fight.”
Sherrill, a former Navy helicopter pilot, goes on to say she will focus on bringing down costs and protecting Social Security and “fundamental freedoms.” She also says she’s running for governor “to stand up to Trump and Musk with all I’ve got.”
In a second ad, supporters say Sherrill will “fight the Trump-Musk madness that’s wrecking our economy, even threatening Social Security,” as footage of Musk in the Oval Office plays on screen.
The ads are part of a new buy Sherrill’s campaign has placed for this week, dropping $162,000 on the airwaves, according to the ad-tracking firm AdImpact.
She faces a crowded Democratic primary to replace term-limited Democratic Gov. Phil Murphy, with top candidates including fellow Rep. Josh Gottheimer, Newark Mayor Ras Baraka, Jersey City Mayor Steve Fulop, former state Senate President Steve Sweeney, and former Montclair Mayor Sean Spiller, president of the state’s teacher’s union.
Like millions of American citizens and immigrants, Ivan filed his taxes last year. But Ivan, 54, a Massachusetts resident who hails from Colombia, is worried a recent agreement between the IRS and Immigration and Customs Enforcement means he is in danger of being deported for doing what he believed was the right thing.
And if taxpayers like Ivan decide not to file taxes because the IRS has said it will share certain tax information filed by undocumented immigrants with ICE, it could cumulatively eliminate billions in tax revenue and create “a massive problem” for citizens and immigrants alike, experts said.
Harvard University is being hit with a $2 billion funding freeze after rejecting a list of demands from the White House to make sweeping changes, including shutting down DEI programs and sharing all hiring and administrative data. NBC’s Hallie Jackson reports for “TODAY.”
Trump said during a “Fox Noticias” interview that he’s “looking into” deporting “homegrown criminals” to El Salvador, a move that legal experts panned as illegal.
“I call them homegrown criminals — the homegrowns,” Trump said in an excerpt of the interview. “The ones that grew up and something went wrong and they hit people over the head with a baseball bat. We have — and push people into subways just before the train gets there, like you see happening sometimes. We are looking into it, and we want to do it. I would love to do that.”
Additional portions of the interview are set to air later today. The interview was conducted by Rachel Campos-Duffy, who is married to Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy.
Trump also raised the idea of deporting U.S. citizens yesterday when El Salvador’s president, Nayib Bukele, visited the White House.
NBC News has reached out to the White House for comment on the president’s deportations plans.
In an interview with the British news outlet UnHerd, Vance sounded optimistic about the prospects of a trade deal with the United Kingdom.
“I think there’s a good chance that, yes, we’ll come to a great agreement that’s in the best interest of both countries,” Vance said, according to UnHerd’s report.
The vice president said the U.S. is “working very hard” with the British government on a trade deal, and he emphasized that Trump loves the United Kingdom and has business relationships in the country.
“But I think it’s much deeper than that. There’s a real cultural affinity. And of course, fundamentally America is an Anglo country,” Vance said, according to the outlet.
The vice president also said that the U.S. has “a much more reciprocal relationship than we have with, say, Germany.”
“While we love the Germans, they are heavily dependent on exporting to the United States but are pretty tough on a lot of American businesses that would like to export into Germany,” Vance added.
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — At least twice over the past year, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’ top government staffers have helped him directly raise campaign contributions, a practice members of his own political party want to end.
A proposal championed by Republicans in the state House would bar state employees — those who work for the governor or otherwise — from conducting most traditional campaign-type activities during working hours, including soliciting campaign contributions.
Democratic lawmakers led by Sen. Chris Van Hollen say they are willing to go to El Salvador to seek the release of a man who the Justice Department says it mistakenly deported there — a plan that has gained steam after the country’s president said during a visit to the White House that he would not send the man back to the U.S.
Van Hollen, D-Md., sent a letter yesterday to El Salvador’s ambassador in the U.S. requesting a meeting with the country’s president, Nayib Bukele, who said in a meeting with Trump later in the day that he “of course” would not send Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a Maryland resident, back to the U.S.
Trump administration officials are ramping up pressure on immigrants to leave the United States of their own volition, or “self deport,” as the number of people the government is deporting from the interior of the country remains stagnant, far below the vision for mass deportations promised by Trump and his top officials.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement deported just more than 12,300 immigrants from March 1 to March 28, slightly under the 12,700 people it deported during the same period last year, according to ICE data obtained by NBC News. ICE deported around 11,000 people in February.
If an immigrant the government claims is a gang member can be deported to El Salvador without any due process rights, then why not a U.S. citizen?
That was the nightmarish scenario immigration advocates and constitutional law experts were considering yesterday after Trump again pushed a provocative plan to deport U.S. citizens who have been convicted of unspecified crimes.
Former President Joe Biden is set to give his first major public post-presidency speech today at the Advocates, Counselors, and Representatives for the Disabled conference in Chicago.
Former Sens. Debbie Stabenow of Michigan and Roy Blunt of Missouri, and former Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley, who serves as chair of ACRD’s advisory board, are slated to appear in support of Social Security at the two-day conference aimed at discussing solutions to preserve those benefits.
Biden previously spoke at a National High Schools Model United Nations event last month, but it was not open to members of the press.
