| Happy Sunday, Patriots! | The Trump administration is pushing back as Capitol Hill moves to rein in its Caribbean strike campaign — a growing revolt that now threatens the White House's Venezuela strategy. | After revelations that U.S. forces conducted a second Sept. 2 strike on an alleged narco-smuggling boat that killed survivors, lawmakers in both parties are demanding footage, new reporting requirements, and limits on Trump's authority. | The administration says the strikes are fully lawful, defensive actions targeting "designated narco-terrorists" ferrying drugs toward the U.S., and officials insist President Trump holds clear constitutional power to act. | But with Democrats — and some Republicans — floating funding restrictions, War Powers resolutions, and bans on Venezuela operations, Congress is signaling it wants control. The White House says its mission won't slow. | Keep scrolling to get caught up on the rest of today's Trump news! | —Nick | In today's email: π Trump Exposes Major Fraud in Minnesota ⚖️ Trump DOJ Catches J6 Pipe Bomber π₯ Capitol Hill Threatens Trump's Venezuela Playbook π Trump Brokers Congo & Rwanda Peace Deal π³ SCOTUS Allows Trump-Backed Redistricting Map | | | | Go from AI overwhelmed to AI savvy professional | | AI keeps coming up at work, but you still don't get it? | That's exactly why 1M+ professionals working at Google, Meta, and OpenAI read Superhuman AI daily. | Here's what you get: | Daily AI news that matters for your career - Filtered from 1000s of sources so you know what affects your industry.

| Join 1M+ pros | | ✅TRACKING TRUMP✅ | Curated by Mike Luso | President Trump made it clear this week: Somali immigrants living in the United States need to go home and fix their own country. Trump's blunt message comes as scandal after scandal emerges out of Minnesota, where nearly 100,000 Somali migrants have been caught up in what appears to be one of the biggest organized fraud operations in American history - over $1 billion stolen from programs meant for autistic kids, hungry children, and COVID relief. The evidence keeps piling up, and Trump isn't mincing words about it. | Meanwhile, lawmakers on both sides of the aisle are starting to get cold feet about Trump's Venezuela strategy, especially after the Pete Hegseth controversy over the Caribbean boat strikes. Some Republicans are suddenly hesitant about further military operations on the ground, and it's unclear whether Trump will forge ahead with his plan or back down from a full engagement. One thing's for sure - the president isn't letting anyone push him around when it comes to protecting American interests. | Check out all the latest developments and more below! | | | | | ⚖️ Trump DOJ Catches J6 Pipe Bomber Department of Justice leaders criticized the Biden administration for failing to achieve what they accomplished by arresting a suspect after pipe bombs were found near the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021. Attorney General Pam Bondi said during a press conference announcing the arrest of Brian Cole Jr. that existing evidence led to the FBI's breakthrough in a cold case that had "languished" for nearly five years. Bondi said that "evidence has been sitting there collecting dust. This wasn't a new tip. It wasn't some new evidence. It was the hard work of President Trump's administration." Bondi said federal investigators were able to identify Cole after spending months "sifting through evidence that had been sitting at the FBI with the Biden administration." FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino said he made the pipe bomb case a top priority after he told reporters in May the bureau was "closing in" on suspects. | π₯ Capitol Hill Revolt Threatens Trump's Venezuela Playbook Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle are pushing for greater oversight and accountability on strikes against alleged drug smugglers in the Caribbean, amid concerns the second strike targeting survivors was illegal. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, Tim Kaine, Adam Schiff, and Rand Paul introduced another war powers resolution to bar Trump from using U.S. armed forces to engage in hostilities within or against Venezuela. Kaine said in a statement that "although President Trump campaigned on no more wars, he and his Administration are unilaterally moving us closer to one with Venezuela — and they are doing so without providing critical information to the American people about the campaign's overall strategy, its legal rationale, and the potential fallout from a prolonged conflict, which includes increased migration to our border." Some congressional Republicans are making the argument that President Trump is under far more scrutiny for his strikes in the Caribbean Sea than former President Barack Obama ever experienced for his drone strikes in the Middle East. | π Trump Brokers Congo & Rwanda Peace Deal Trump announced the formal signing of a peace agreement between the Democratic Republic of Congo and Rwanda, ending years of regional conflict. The deal was brokered through intensive White House diplomacy and includes provisions for Rwanda to withdraw support from rebel groups operating in eastern Congo. Congo agreed to address security concerns along its border with Rwanda and establish joint patrols to prevent cross-border militia activity. Both nations committed to resolving disputes over mineral-rich territories through negotiation rather than proxy warfare. Trump called the agreement "a historic achievement for African stability" and said it demonstrated America's renewed commitment to conflict resolution on the continent. | π³ SCOTUS Allows Trump-Backed Redistricting Map The Supreme Court cleared the way for Texas to use its newly redrawn congressional maps that favor Republican candidates. The decision allows the state to implement redistricting that could shift multiple seats toward the GOP in upcoming elections. Texas Democrats had challenged the maps as partisan gerrymandering that dilutes minority voting power and violates the Voting Rights Act. Lower courts had blocked implementation of the maps pending the Supreme Court's review of the constitutional questions. The ruling represents a significant victory for Republican state legislatures seeking greater control over electoral boundaries and could influence redistricting battles in other states. |

| | π Trump Exposes Major Fraud in Minnesota π | President Trump told his cabinet meeting that Somali migrants should go home to fix up their own country, declaring "I don't want them in our country." Trump added that "their country is no good for a reason. Their country stinks … We got to, we have to rebuild our country … [Rep.] Ilhan Omar [D-MN] is garbage. She's garbage. Her friends are garbage. These aren't people that work. These aren't people that say, 'Let's go, come on, let's make this place [Somalia] great.' These are people that do nothing but complain." | Trump's criticism of the migrant Somali population comes amid growing evidence that many leading Somalis embezzled more than $1 billion from various aid and welfare programs for autistic children, hungry children, coronavirus aid, homebuyers, and sick people. A third of Minnesota's non-domiciled commercial driver's licenses reviewed in a recent audit by the Department of Transportation were illegally issued, Secretary Sean Duffy announced. The review was conducted by the DOT's Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration as part of the Trump administration's crackdown on "unqualified non-citizens" endangering Americans on the roads. The state has 30 days to come into compliance and revoke the illegally-issued CDLs, or risk losing up to $30.4 million in federal highway funding. | Duffy directly called out Gov. Tim Walz, stating that "our audit exposes yet another example of foreigners taking advantage of Minnesota services under Governor Walz's watch. Minnesota failed to follow the law and illegally doled out trucking licenses to unsafe, unqualified non-citizens – endangering American families on the road." At the heart of the issue is the sprawling, $250 million "Feeding Our Future" fraud scheme that exploited a federally funded children's nutrition program during the COVID-19 pandemic. | Conspirators falsely claimed to have served millions of meals during the pandemic, but instead used the money for personal gain. They also are accused of fabricating invoices, submitting fake attendance records and falsely distributing thousands of meals from hundreds of so-called food distribution "sites" across the state. More than 75 individuals have been charged in connection with the scheme, according to federal prosecutors. | Senior Trump administration officials announced fresh investigations this week, including a new Treasury Department probe into how taxpayer dollars were allegedly diverted to the terrorist organization al-Shabaab, according to Secretary Scott Bessent. Rep. Ilhan Omar said President Trump's comments about Somalians were creating a dangerous situation because his followers have "exhibited violence." Omar stated that "it creates fear. And there is a possible danger that a lot of the people who follow the president have exhibited violence in many cases, especially in my case, whenever he has said something about me that is derogatory or says I'm a threat to the country, I have gotten death threats." | Trump's words have exposed a massive problem that Democrats tried to bury, and now the truth is coming out. | | |  | Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel hold a briefing with reporters on the arrest of a suspect in the 2021 pipe bombing attempt at Republican and Democratic headquarters in Washington, DC. |
| | π Quick Bite News π | ⚖️ The Justice Department established a new Second Amendment Rights Section within the Civil Rights Division to investigate and prosecute violations of gun rights. The section will focus on cases where states or local governments allegedly infringe on citizens' constitutional right to bear arms through overly restrictive laws. Trump's DOJ said the new unit would treat gun ownership as equally worthy of federal protection as other civil rights. | π A county jail in Arkansas has emerged as one of the nation's busiest hubs for processing illegal immigrants awaiting deportation under Trump's enforcement surge. The facility houses hundreds of immigration detainees and coordinates with ICE to expedite removal proceedings for individuals arrested across multiple states. The jail processes an average of 150 deportation cases weekly, with most detainees transferred from sanctuary jurisdictions that refuse to cooperate with federal immigration authorities.. | ⚽ The Department of Homeland Security unveiled comprehensive security plans for hosting World Cup matches across American cities, with counterterrorism as the top priority. DHS will deploy thousands of additional agents and implement advanced surveillance technology at venues. The security operation will cost an estimated $2.3 billion and represents one of the largest domestic law enforcement mobilizations in U.S. history. | π Trump selected a prominent architect to design a massive new ballroom and event space at the White House, estimated to cost $300 million. The proposed addition would accommodate up to 1,200 guests for state dinners and diplomatic receptions, significantly expanding the building's hosting capacity. Trump said the expansion would allow America to host world leaders "with the grandeur and dignity they deserve." | π° The New York Times filed a federal lawsuit against the Pentagon challenging new Trump administration policies that restrict press access to military briefings and combat zones. The suit alleges the Defense Department implemented a credentialing system that favors friendly outlets while excluding journalists who have published critical coverage. Pentagon officials defend the policy as necessary for operational security during ongoing operations. | God bless,
