Georgia House Republicans approved a bill Thursday requiring all eligible police and sheriff’s departments to assist in the identification, arrest, and detention of illegal aliens for deportation. House Bill 1105 passed the House with a 97-74 vote and came in response to the brutal murder of University of Georgia nursing student Laken Riley. The bill will now proceed to the Georgia Senate for additional debate. If passed and signed into law, it will effectively make ‘sanctuary’ cities and counties illegal in Georgia.
Riley was murdered by 26-year-old illegal alien Jose Ibarra. Riley, a nursing student at Augusta University’s Athens campus, was found dead on February 22 after a reported failure to return from a morning run. According to immigration authorities, Ibarra unlawfully entered the United States in 2022.

The bill, if passed, will also introduce new directives for jail officials regarding their interaction with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to verify an individual’s immigration status. Sheriffs failing to check immigration status could be charged with a misdemeanor under the new law. Additionally, state funding would be denied to prisons and sheriffs not in compliance.
The city of Athens and its surrounding county are alleged to be ‘sanctuary’ jurisdictions. Athens-Clarke County Sheriff John Williams campaigned on an explicit promise to refuse to cooperate with ICE.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Prince Harry, Meghan Markle, and Netflix executives.
📍WHEN & WHERE: The deal, originally signed in 2020, will not be renewed, according to reports this week.
💬KEY QUOTE: “Netflix feel they’ve got all they can from the couple.”
🎯IMPACT: The end of the deal marks a significant loss of revenue for the couple and underscores the increasing decline in their influence since they abandoned their duties as working royals and turned on Harry’s family.
IN FULL
Netflix has reportedly chosen not to renew its $100 million deal with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, which began in 2020. Over the course of the partnership, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex released several projects, most notably the 2022 docuseries Harry & Meghan, which achieved 64 million viewing hours. However, later content did not maintain the same momentum, with Harry’s 2024 series Polo reportedly drawing only 500,000 views.
According to a source cited by The Sun newspaper, “Netflix feel they’ve got all they can from the couple. Netflix… got a hell of a lot of viewers for the first documentary series, and knew, realistically, it would prove the zenith of content from the Montecito pair.”
While no official statement is expected from either side, the door may not be entirely closed. “Publicly, there will not be a statement, and of course, if things change dramatically, they’d be open to a one-off project down the line,” the source noted.
This development comes in the wake of a poor reception for Meghan’s lifestyle show, With Love, Meghan. The program has spawned a number of viral parodies, with reviewers describing it as “queasy” and “exhausting.”
Harry and Meghan are still at odds with King Charles III, Harry’s father. Last year, it was reported that the King even considered stripping the pair of their royal titles, having long discussions on the matter with his heir, William, Harry’s elder brother.

🎯IMPACT: The announcement is a major policy shift from the Western European country with the largest Jewish and Muslim populations.
IN FULL
French President Emmanuel Macron announced that his country will recognize “Palestine” as a state, formalizing this recognition at a September United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) meeting. Writing on X (formerly Twitter), Macron said, “The urgent thing today is that the war in Gaza stops and the civilian population is saved.”
“Theremustbeanimmediateceasefire,thereleaseofallhostages,andmassivehumanitarianaidtothepeopleofGaza.ItisalsonecessarytoensurethedemilitarizationofHamas [to]secureandrebuildGaza.Finally,itisessentialtobuildtheStateofPalestine,ensureitsviability,andenableit,byacceptingitsdemilitarizationandfullyrecognizingIsrael,tocontributetothesecurityofallintheMiddleEast,” he added.
Macron has supported Israel’s right to defend itself since the October 7, 2023, Hamas terrorist attacks on the Jewish State, and has frequently condemned anti-Semitism—a significant problem in France, due to its large Muslim population. However, he has also expressed frustration regarding Israel’s conduct in the ongoing conflict in Gaza.
More than 140 countries, over a dozen in Europe, already recognize Palestinian statehood. France’s decision carries particular weight as it has both the largest Jewish and Muslim populations in Western Europe, meaning conflicts in the Middle East often lead to protests and tensions at home. Additionally, it is a leading NATO and European Union (EU) member and a nuclear power.
Last month, Macron reaffirmed his “determination to recognize the State of Palestine” and called for “a broader movement toward a two-state solution,” while acknowledging the importance of recognizing Israel and its right to security.
France’s move follows the U.S. exiting ceasefire talks in Qatar, accusing Hamas of acting in bad faith.

🎯IMPACT: Vance’s comments amplify criticism of Big Tech for prioritizing foreign hires while laying off U.S. workers.
IN FULL
Vice President J.D. Vance criticized Big Tech companies for taking advantage of the H1-B visa program by firing American workers and hiring a multitude of H1-B visa holders from other countries. “You see some big tech companies where they’ll lay off 9,000 workers, and then they’ll apply for a bunch of overseas visas. And I sort of wonder; that doesn’t totally make sense to me,” Vance said at the Hill and Valley Forum.
“That displacement and that math worries me a bit. And what the President has said, he said very clearly: We want the very best and the brightest to make America their home. We want them to build great companies and so forth. But I don’t want companies to fire 9,000 American workers and then to go and say, ‘We can’t find workers here in America.’ That’s a bullsh*t story,” Vance added.
Microsoft said earlier in July that it would be laying off 9,000 workers. One of the hosts at the Hill and Valley Forum asked Vance directly, “What did Microsoft say when you brought that up with Microsoft?” Vance laughed and admitted that it was Microsoft that he had been referring to, noting that despite laying off 9,000 workers, the company is “saying they’re desperate for workers.”

🎯IMPACT: Reyna faces up to eight years in federal prison if convicted, highlighting federal efforts to prosecute attacks against law enforcement.
IN FULL
Elpidio Reyna, accused of hurling concrete blocks at law enforcement during immigration enforcement actions in Paramount, California, has been apprehended at the U.S. southern border. Reyna’s alleged criminal acts took place on June 7, and he was arrested on Wednesday, July 23, at the U.S.-Mexico frontier, according to Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Deputy Director Dan Bongino.
Bill Essayli, U.S. Attorney for the Central District of California, stated, “Elpidio Reyna surrendered today at the U.S.-Mexico border to face a felony charge of assault on a federal officer for throwing rocks at passing law enforcement vehicles in Paramount on June 7. He was taken into custody by a U.S. Border Patrol officer who was inside one of the vehicles damaged in the attack — a brave law enforcement officer who could have been killed in last month’s dangerous and reckless attack.”
“To anyone who thinks they can attack federal officers and hide behind a mask or helmet, Reyna’s arrest today proves we can find and charge anyone who violates federal law. Don’t touch our officers. Reyna will make his initial appearance in federal court this afternoon. He is presumed innocent until proven guilty,” Essayli added.
Video evidence allegedly shows Reyna throwing concrete blocks at law enforcement vehicles on Alondra Boulevard in Paramount, injuring a federal officer and damaging government property. After his arrest at the San Ysidro port of entry, Reyna was transported to Los Angeles. A conviction could lead to a maximum of eight years in federal prison.
In June, when Reyna was identified, Essayli announced, “WANTED: Elpidio Reyna can run, but he can’t hide. He threw rocks at federal officers leaving a command post in Paramount on Saturday, a brazen attack caught on film and that could have resulted in deaths.”

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: President Trump, Powell, and the Federal Reserve.
📍WHEN & WHERE: Thursday, July 24, 2025, at the Federal Reserve in Washington, D.C.
💬KEY QUOTE: “A lot of very expensive work, there’s no question about it,” Trump said, adding: “So we’re taking a look, and it looks like it is about $3.1 billion; it went up a little bit.”
🎯IMPACT: Trump’s visit is likely part of a broader campaign to pressure Powell and the Federal Reserve to cut interest, mirroring similar efforts by the late President Richard Nixon to push his Fed chairman, Arthur Burns, into lowering borrowing costs.
IN FULL
President Donald J. Trump chastised Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell in person over the nearly $1 billion in cost overruns for renovations and new office construction undertaken by the American central bank. On Thursday, July 24, 2025, Trump became only the fourth President in American history to visit the Federal Reserve, and the only President to enter the building for nonceremonial purposes. Previously, former Presidents Franklin Delano Roosevelt, Gerald Ford, and George W. Bush each visited the Fed.
“Thank you very much, we’re looking at the construction, and we’re with the chairman, as you know,” President Trump said before waving Powell over to join him in front of the cameras: “Chairman, come on over.”
“And we’re just taking a look at what’s happening, and it’s a tough construction job; they’re building basements where they didn’t exist or expanding them. A lot of very expensive work, there’s no question about it,” Trump continued. “So we’re taking a look, and it looks like it is about $3.1 billion; it went up a little bit.”
A stunned Powell abruptly began shaking his head in disagreement, insisting the construction costs were not that high. President Trump proceeded to produce a report detailing the cost, which included a separate office space that the Federal Reserve did not pair with its renovation estimates.
yikes — Powell shakes his head as Trump rips into him for the cost of Fed building renovations pic.twitter.com/Kz4SD57p0w
For weeks, President Trump has increased pressure on the U.S. central bank to begin slashing interest rates as economic data has shown some concerning deflationary signals. Powell, however, has remained obstinate, maintaining rates at their current levels.
This has led to some speculation that Trump could move to fire Powell—with cause— by citing the renovation cost overruns, though the America First leader has insisted he does not intend to remove the Fed chairman before his term expires next year.

💬KEY QUOTE: “The department was minimally impacted due to its widespread use of the Microsoft M365 cloud and very capable cybersecurity systems. A very small number of systems were impacted. All impacted systems are being restored.” – Department of Energy spokesman.
🎯IMPACT: The breach exploited cryptographic keys, enabling hackers to impersonate users or services. Microsoft has issued updates, but the full consequences remain unclear.
IN FULL
Chinese state-affiliated hackers have exploited a critical vulnerability in Microsoft SharePoint software to infiltrate several U.S. government agencies, including the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA), which is responsible for America’s nuclear weapons. According to multiple cybersecurity reports, the cyberattack began on July 18 and also affected organizations across Europe and the Middle East.
Microsoft has linked the attackers to groups it tracks as Linen Typhoon, Violet Typhoon, and Storm-2603. These groups reportedly took advantage of a zero-day flaw in SharePoint to gain unauthorized access, enabling them to steal cryptographic keys. This theft may have allowed them to impersonate legitimate users or services within affected systems. Microsoft has since issued security patches to mitigate the vulnerability and is urging all users to update their systems.
The U.S. Department of Energy confirmed that it experienced a disruption. A spokesman stated, “The department was minimally impacted due to its widespread use of the Microsoft M365 cloud and very capable cybersecurity systems. A very small number of systems were impacted. All impacted systems are being restored.”
Cybersecurity firm Eye Security revealed that the breach extended beyond the U.S., compromising around 400 entities worldwide. Among the impacted were the U.S. Education Department, the Florida Department of Revenue, and the Rhode Island General Assembly.
Security experts have described the threat as particularly severe. Carlos Perez, director of security intelligence at TrustedSec, emphasized the danger of the exploited vulnerability, calling it “critical” and warning that it was “already being actively exploited at scale.” According to Perez, the flaw allowed attackers to execute remote code on SharePoint servers, posing a serious threat to enterprise-level infrastructure.
Microsoft continues to stress the importance of immediate action. The company said the newly released updates are essential to prevent further exploitation and secure compromised systems.

📍WHEN & WHERE: Ukraine, July 2025.
💬KEY QUOTE: “We are working [with the Ukrainian government] to make sure that our concerns… are indeed taken into account.” – Ursula von der Leyen
🎯IMPACT: The initial law weakened the independence of Ukraine’s anti-corruption institutions, raising fears that Zelensky is not serious about reforming the country at best, and attempting to actively cover up his government’s misdeeds at worst. Zelensky’s justification, that the law protected against Russian influence, was criticized as contradictory and self-defeating.
IN FULL
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has approved a draft bill guaranteeing the freedom of the two anti-corruption bodies in Ukraine, just days after nationwide protests against another law that put them under the control of his prosecutor general.
On Thursday, Zelensky said the draft bill is intended to safeguard the independence of Ukraine’s National Anti-Corruption Bureau (NABU) and Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor’s Office (SAP). He justified his previous decision to restrict the bodies’ powers on dubious claims of Russia’s influence. Ukraine’s security services had carried out searches and arrests, targeting supposed Russian spies at the agency.
After the legislation undermining the anti-corruption agencies was passed, protests broke out in Ukraine, said to be the largest since the start of Russia’s full-scale invasion in February 2022. There was also international outcry, with many of Zelensky’s sponsors in the West concerned about backsliding on reform in a country where graft and corruption have long been rife.
A spokesman for European Commission chief Ursula von der Leyen warned Kiev that the rule of law and the fight against corruption were “core elements” of membership of the European Union (EU), which remains a key aspiration for Ukraine. Following Zelensky’s apparent backtracking, the Commission said it “welcomed” the move.
Zelensky did not acknowledge the protests or the backlash in a Thursday social mediapost announcing the new draft bill, but said it was “important that we are maintaining unity” and “important that we respect the position of all Ukrainians and are grateful to everyone who stands with Ukraine.”

🎯IMPACT: The surge of arrests shows President Trump’s administration is fulfilling promises to crack down on criminal illegals and deport them from the United States.
IN FULL
The number of arrests of criminal illegal aliens has surged under the administration of President Donald J. Trump. States have seen triple-digit increases in arrests, with Virginia seeing a 470 percent increase and Maryland reporting a 290 percent increase.
“President Trump is keeping his promise to the American people to carry out the largest mass deportation operation in history!” a White House spokesman said, adding: “American communities will be safer with these dangerous criminal illegal aliens gone. Promises made. Promises kept.”
Immigration enforcement actions by the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agency (ICE) in Michigan have surged 145 percent. Meanwhile, Colorado and Wyoming have experienced arrest rates nearly five times higher than those recorded during the same timeframe under former President Joe Biden.
Across a group of eight western states—including Utah, Idaho, Nevada, Montana, Arizona, Colorado, Wyoming, and California—monthly arrests of illegal immigrants have nearly tripled since January.
In Chicago, ICE reports that the number of illegal immigrants with criminal convictions apprehended during the first 150 days of the Trump administration was three times higher than during the final 150 days of Biden’s presidency. The San Diego area has seen a particularly sharp rise, with immigration arrests climbing 400 percent compared to this period last year.
At the same time, ICE personnel have faced a dramatic rise in assaults, an 830 percent increase over 2024 figures, according to Acting ICE Director Todd Lyons.
“I think the sharp increase in the rhetoric, especially from a lot of elected officials, that are shaming, if you will, or speaking out against [the] ICE law enforcement mission, is what’s really increasing these attacks on officers,” Lyons said.

IN FULL
The United States and Israel have withdrawn their negotiators from Gaza ceasefire talks, with U.S. special envoy Steve Witkoff accusing Hamas of failing to act in good faith. The talks, held in Doha, Qatar, aimed at ending nearly two years of fighting, have not reached a breakthrough.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reaffirmed his government’s commitment to seeking a ceasefire but criticized Hamas for blocking efforts to end the conflict. He stated, “If Hamas interprets our willingness to reach a deal as a weakness… it is gravely mistaken.”
Mediators have been working for over two weeks to facilitate discussions between the Israeli and Hamas delegations, but the talks have not yielded results. The humanitarian situation in Gaza remains dire, with warnings of “mass starvation” spreading among the population.
Hamas’s response to the latest ceasefire proposal included amendments concerning aid entry, withdrawal maps, and guarantees for a permanent end to hostilities. Witkoff indicated that the U.S. would consider alternative options to stabilize the region and secure the release of hostages.
International attention is focused on the humanitarian crisis in Gaza. Israel maintains that it is not responsible for the crisis, attributing the situation to Hamas’s actions in attacking Israel on October 7, 2023.

📍WHEN & WHERE: The Executive Order was signed Wednesday, July 23, 2025, in Washington, D.C.
💬KEY QUOTE: “We will terminate every diversity, equity, and inclusion program across the entire federal government.” – Donald J. Trump
🎯IMPACT: The Order should ensure AI models used by the federal government adhere to principles of truthfulness and neutrality, avoiding ideological bias.
IN FULL
President Donald J. Trump signed an Executive Order late Wednesday mandating that artificial intelligence (AI) models used by the federal government prioritize truthfulness and ideological neutrality. The Order outlines “Unbiased AI Principles,” which include truth-seeking and ideological neutrality as core tenets.
According to the presidential directive, truth-seeking AI models are required to prioritize historical accuracy, scientific inquiry, and objectivity, acknowledging uncertainty when information is incomplete or contradictory. Ideological neutrality mandates that AI models remain nonpartisan, avoiding manipulation of responses to favor ideologies like diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI).
The Order directs federal agencies to procure only AI models compliant with these principles. It also requires contracts with AI vendors to include accountability measures, such as cost coverage if noncompliance leads to contract termination. The Director of the Office of Management and Budget will issue guidance to enforce these directives.
President Trump emphasized the importance of trustworthy AI, citing examples of biased outputs from existing models. These include AI systems altering historical representations for DEI purposes and prioritizing ideological compliance over factual accuracy. Such practices, the Trump White House argues, erode public trust in AI systems.
The Executive Order is part of a broader effort by President Trump to eliminate DEI-driven policies across the federal government. In recent months, he has signed multiple actions to dismantle DEI programs in federal agencies, defense, and education, ensuring that government initiatives prioritize fairness and merit. “We will terminate every diversity, equity, and inclusion program across the entire federal government,” President Trump pledged earlier this year.
