France BANS British Anti-Migration Activists for Disrupting Illegal Boat Crossings.

PULSE POINTS

❓WHAT HAPPENED: Ten members of a British anti-illegal immigration group were prohibited from entering France after being accused of destroying small boats used by migrants crossing the English Channel.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Activists from the Raise the Colours group and the French Interior Ministry.

📍WHEN & WHERE: Prohibition enacted on Tuesday; actions took place along the northern French coastline.

🎯IMPACT: Cross-Channel migration remains high, with over 41,000 people making the journey last year, despite the British government paying the French government tens of millions of pounds to stop the crossings. French action against British activists for destroying the boats the French authorities are failing to seize themselves increases the perception that Paris is not really interested in ending the crisis.

IN FULL

French authorities have barred ten members of the British anti-mass migration activist group Raise the Colours from entering or remaining in France, citing their involvement in actions targeting migrant boats along France’s northern coastline. The French Interior Ministry confirmed on Wednesday that the ban was imposed on Tuesday and applies to individuals within the movement who have taken action on French soil to disrupt illegal immigration to Britain.

In a statement, the ministry said the activists had been involved in operations against boats linked to cross-Channel migration and had also carried out “propaganda activities” along the coast. Notably, the British government has been paying the French government tens of millions of pounds annually to stop these boats, but it has failed to do so.

Cross-Channel migration remains a politically charged issue in Britain, where more than 41,000 people arrived in small boats last year, according to government data. While that figure is below the record 45,000 crossings seen in 2022, it remains extremely high by historical standards.

Public concern in Britain has been heightened by a series of criminal cases involving migrants who entered the country by boat. In one recent case, a migrant was convicted of raping a teenage girl within weeks of his arrival.

Critics argue that France is to some extent actively facilitating crossings, at times distributing life jackets and other safety equipment to migrants preparing to launch boats from French beaches rather than detaining or otherwise deterring them.

Deportations from Britain to France remain limited. Estimates from 2024 suggested that only around 0.5 percent of boat migrants had been removed.

Mass Deportations Have Made Homes More Affordable, Boosted Wages, and Cut Crime.

PULSE POINTS

❓WHAT HAPPENED: President Trump’s administration achieved significant reductions in crime, improved housing affordability, and boosted wages for American workers through strict immigration enforcement and mass deportations.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: President Donald J. Trump, American workers, law enforcement, and local jurisdictions impacted by immigration policies.

📍WHEN & WHERE: Throughout 2025, with notable impacts in cities such as Washington, D.C., Chicago, Memphis, and New Orleans.

💬KEY QUOTE: “Under President Trump, the America First promise is a reality. While Democrats fight to sabotage these gains and drag us back to the chaos of open borders, skyrocketing costs, and rampant crime, President Trump remains unwavering in his commitment to delivering the security, prosperity, and safety the American people deserve.” – White House statement

🎯IMPACT: Reduced crime rates, increased wages for blue-collar workers, improved housing affordability, and improved safety in America’s cities.

IN FULL

President Donald J. Trump’s focus on border security and immigration enforcement has produced tangible benefits for Americans in his first year back in office. Large-scale deportations are contributing to falling home prices in 14 of the top 20 metropolitan areas that have significant populations of illegal immigrants by reducing pressure on housing, showing year-over-year declines in December. Notably, three areas that experienced slight price increases were all sanctuary cities.

Blue-collar wages have also increased at the fastest pace in decades, with truck drivers and construction workers, whose sectors have been heavily infiltrated by sometimes dangerously unqualified illegal immigrants, among those seeing substantial pay raises. Real wages for American workers are projected to have risen by 4.2 percent overall during President Trump’s first full year back in office.

Between January and December 2025, employment increased by two million native-born Americans, while 662,000 foreign-born workers experienced job losses, indicating that the administration’s policies are rebalancing the economy away from cheap foreign labor.

The near-halt to illegal immigration and increase in deportations, particularly in America’s interior, has also been accompanied by the country’s largest-ever single-year decline in murders last year, along with reductions in rapes, robberies, aggravated assaults, shooting deaths, traffic fatalities, and overdose fatalities—with the last of these likely to have been further influenced by the administration’s aggressive military action against drug traffickers in Latin America.

In Washington, D.C., murders fell by 60 percent, carjackings decreased by 68 percent, and overall crime dropped by nearly a third, according to the White House. Chicago, subject to the administration’s Operation Midway Blitz against illegal immigrants, posted its lowest number of murders since 1965, while Memphis had fewer than 200 murders for the first time since 2019, and New Orleans achieved its lowest homicide rate in nearly 50 years.

Democrats Win Redistricting Battle at Ninth Circuit.

PULSE POINTS

❓WHAT HAPPENED: Federal judges dismissed Republican claims that California’s Proposition 50 gerrymandered map is discriminatory, allowing the state to proceed with redrawn congressional districts.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: California Governor Gavin Newsom (D), Attorney General Rob Bonta (D), Secretary of State Shirley Weber (D), and Republican challengers led by State Assemblymember David Tangipa (R).

📍WHEN & WHERE: The ruling was issued on Wednesday by the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals after a December hearing.

💬KEY QUOTE: “The decision upholds the will of the people. It also means that, to date, every single challenge against Proposition 50 has failed.” – Attorney General Rob Bonta.

🎯IMPACT: The ruling could allow Democrats to secure up to five additional seats in the U.S. House, bolstering their efforts in the 2026 midterms.

IN FULL

California Democrats secured a legal victory Wednesday as a panel of federal judges rejected Republican claims that Proposition 50, a measure allowing the state to redraw congressional districts, is discriminatory. The measure, approved by voters last November, is expected to help Democrats gain up to five additional U.S. House seats, potentially aiding their efforts to reclaim Congress in the 2026 midterms.

Governor Gavin Newsom (D), who spearheaded the Prop 50 initiative, celebrated the decision on social media. Newsom’s office posted, “Can’t spell Republican without an L,” on X (formerly Twitter), while Newsom himself posted the phrase “FAFO,” an acronym for “F—k around and find out.”

Republicans argued that the redrawn districts unfairly favor Latino voters at the expense of other racial groups. However, Attorney General Rob Bonta (D) praised the court’s decision, stating, “The decision upholds the will of the people. It also means that, to date, every single challenge against Proposition 50 has failed.” He added, “I couldn’t be prouder of my team for successfully defending this ballot initiative in court on behalf of Governor Newsom and Secretary of State Weber.”

The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals issued its ruling after a three-day hearing in December. California voters had approved the new district map in November, and this decision further solidifies its implementation. State Assemblymember David Tangipa (R), part of the Republican group challenging the measure, previously indicated plans to escalate the matter to the Supreme Court should the Ninth Circuit rule against the plaintiffs.

ICE Agent Suffered Internal Bleeding After Being Struck by SUV During MN Shooting.

PULSE POINTS

❓WHAT HAPPENED: U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent Jonathan Ross was injured during an incident where he fatally shot anti-ICE activist Renee Good in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: ICE agent Jonathan Ross, Renee Good, and Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem.

📍WHEN & WHERE: The incident occurred last week in Minneapolis; Ross was hospitalized and later released.

💬KEY QUOTE: “The officer was hit by the vehicle. She hit him. He went to the hospital. A doctor did treat him. He has been released,” – Kristi Noem.

🎯IMPACT: Ross is recovering from his injuries, and the incident has raised questions about law enforcement safety and procedures.

IN FULL

Jonathan Ross, the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent who shot anti-ICE activist Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis, Minnesota, when she drove her SUV at him last week, suffered internal bleeding in his torso following the incident, according to two U.S. officials briefed on his condition. The officials said the severity of the bleeding remains unclear.

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) confirmed Ross was injured. Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Kristi Noem acknowledged Ross’s hospitalization during a press briefing on January 7, saying he was treated and released the same day.

“The officer was hit by the vehicle. She hit him. He went to the hospital. A doctor did treat him. He has been released,” Noem told reporters at the time. She described Ross as an experienced law enforcement officer who acted to protect himself and others.

The shooting occurred during a federal immigration enforcement operation in Minneapolis. Federal officials have said Good used her vehicle as a weapon and accelerated toward officers, prompting Ross to fire. Good, 37, was pronounced dead at the scene. Good had previously trained with anti-ICE activists.

Ross is a 10-year ICE veteran and had previously been injured by a vehicle in June, when he was dragged by a car while trying to detain a migrant pedophile. That incident required hospital treatment and 33 stitches.

U.S. Border Patrol commander Gregory Bovino said Ross “has had several threats against his life” following the Minneapolis shooting, and is currently recovering in a secure location.

Trump Freezes Visas for 75 Countries, Including Russia, Iran, Somalia.

PULSE POINTS

❓WHAT HAPPENED: President Donald J. Trump has frozen visa processing for 75 countries, including Russia and Iran, as part of a broader effort to reassess immigration procedures and address national security concerns.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: President Donald Trump, the State Department, and various countries.

📍WHEN & WHERE: The indefinite visa freeze is set to take effect on January 21, 2026, with escalating tensions surrounding Iran and ongoing protests in the region.

💬KEY QUOTE: “The State Department will use its long-standing authority to deem ineligible potential immigrants who would become a public charge on the United States and exploit the generosity of the American people.” – State Department spokesman Tommy Piggott.

🎯IMPACT: The freeze aims to prevent the entry of foreign nationals who could become public charges, while signaling a strong stance against Iran’s crackdown on protesters.

IN FULL

President Donald J. Trump has ordered a temporary halt to visa processing for citizens of 75 countries, including Russia, Iran, and Somalia, as his administration moves to overhaul immigration screening procedures. An internal State Department memo directs U.S. consulates to deny visa applications while the government reassesses its vetting standards. The freeze is scheduled to take effect on January 21, 2026.

Countries impacted by the suspension include Afghanistan, Iraq, Brazil, and Somalia. Somalia has drawn particular attention from the administration following reports of widespread fraud tied to members of the Somali community in Minnesota. The visa pause is the latest step in a broader immigration crackdown that has already seen the revocation of more than 100,000 visas in 2025, the highest total on record, as officials expand background checks and enforcement measures.

The State Department memo also instructs consular officers to deny visas to applicants deemed likely to depend on public assistance after arriving in the United States. Officers are directed to consider factors such as the applicant’s health, age, and English language ability. “The State Department will use its long-standing authority to deem ineligible potential immigrants who would become a public charge on the United States and exploit the generosity of the American people,” said State Department spokesman Tommy Piggott.

The administration has simultaneously tightened other visa policies, including denying entry to foreign nationals suspected of traveling to the U.S. primarily to give birth in order to secure citizenship for their children. Officials say the measures are intended to curb abuse of the immigration system and protect taxpayer resources.

The visa freeze comes amid escalating tensions with Iran. President Trump has warned Iran’s Supreme Leader, Grand Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, that “strong action” will follow if the regime proceeds with executions of detained protesters. Iran’s judiciary chief, Gholamhossein Mohseni-Ejei, has indicated that trials and executions could be fast-tracked.

As tensions rise, the United States has ordered evacuations from several military installations in the region, including Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar, which houses approximately 10,000 U.S. troops. The administration has also signaled it is considering further steps, including potential strikes on nonmilitary sites in Tehran.

Danish Foreign Minister Cites ‘Fundamental’ Differences on Greenland’s Future After White House Talks.

PULSE POINTS

❓WHAT HAPPENED: U.S. and Danish officials met at the White House to discuss Greenland’s future amid President Donald J. Trump’s interest in acquiring the territory.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Denmark’s Foreign Minister Lars Loekke Rasmussen, Greenland’s Minister of Foreign Affairs Vivian Motzfeldt, U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, and President Donald Trump.

📍WHEN & WHERE: Wednesday, at the White House in Washington, D.C.

💬KEY QUOTE: “We still have a fundamental disagreement, but we also agree to disagree.” – Lars Loekke Rasmussen

🎯IMPACT: The meeting highlighted ongoing tensions over Greenland, though signaled some possible progress on a potential new security agreement for the critical Arctic island.

IN FULL

The U.S. and Denmark remain at odds over the future of Greenland, but discussions will continue, according to Denmark’s Foreign Minister Lars Loekke Rasmussen. Following a meeting at the White House on Wednesday, Rasmussen described the talks as “frank but also constructive,” focusing on security in Greenland, but stated “fundamental” differences remain.

“We still have a fundamental disagreement, but we also agree to disagree,” Denmark’s Foreign Minister admitted.

The meeting included Denmark’s Rasmussen, Greenland’s Minister of Foreign Affairs Vivian Motzfeldt, U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, and other officials. The Danish delegation proposed a high-level working group to address concerns while respecting Denmark’s sovereignty. “We agree that it makes sense to try to sit down on a high level,” Rasmussen said, though he acknowledged that a resolution may not be achievable.

Meanwhile, President Donald J. Trump reiterated the United States’s interest in acquiring Greenland for national security purposes, stating after the White House meeting, “We need Greenland for national security, so we’re going to see what happens.” He also noted that NATO could play a pivotal role, arguing in a post on Truth Social earlier on Wednesday, “NATO becomes far more formidable and effective with Greenland in the hands of the UNITED STATES.”

Greenlandic officials, however, rejected the notion of U.S. ownership. Vivian Motzfeldt emphasized the importance of strengthening ties with the U.S., but said, “That doesn’t mean that we want to be owned by the United States.” Prime Minister Jens-Frederik Nielsen also affirmed Greenland’s alignment with Denmark, stating, “If we have to choose between the United States and Denmark here and now, we choose Denmark.”

E. Jean Carroll Asks Supreme Court to Reject Trump’s Defamation Appeal.

PULSE POINTS

❓WHAT HAPPENED: Attorneys for writer and fabulist E. Jean Carroll are asking the U.S. Supreme Court to reject an appeal filed by President Donald J. Trump that seeks to overturn a $5 million verdict in a civil case, where Trump was found liable for battery and defamation.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: E. Jean Carroll, her legal team, President Trump, and the Supreme Court.

📍WHEN & WHERE: Carroll’s Brief in Opposition was filed with the high court on Wednesday, January 14, 2026.

💬KEY QUOTE: “Petitioner now seeks to litigate these evidentiary issues yet again. But his petition suffers from a fatal defect: It does not challenge the Second Circuit’s alternative holding that petitioner failed to show that any error affected his substantial rights.” — Carroll’s Brief in Opposition

🎯IMPACT: Trump is currently requesting the Supreme Court review and overturn the $5 million defamation verdict, citing “indefensible evidentiary rulings” made by the district court.

IN FULL

Attorneys for writer and fabulist E. Jean Carroll are asking the U.S. Supreme Court to reject an appeal filed by President Donald J. Trump that seeks to overturn a $5 million verdict in a civil case, where Trump was found liable for battery and defamation. In a Brief in Opposition filed by Carroll‘s legal team on Wednesday, her attorneys contend that President Trump‘s request for review suffers from procedural flaws and lacks legal merit.

“Petitioner now seeks to litigate these evidentiary issues yet again. But his petition suffers from a fatal defect: It does not challenge the Second Circuit’s alternative holding that petitioner failed to show that any error affected his substantial rights,” Carroll’s filing states, continuing: “Thus, this Court would have no basis for disturbing the judgment below even if it were to answer all three questions presented in petitioner’s favor.”

“The problems don’t end there. Each of the questions presented suffers from additional serious vehicle problems. And none implicates a genuine circuit split,” the Brief in Opposition contends, adding: “As for the merits, the Second Circuit correctly held that the district court acted within its discretion in admitting the challenged evidence. Certiorari should be denied.”

In November last year, Trump’s attorneys filed a request for the Supreme Court to review and overturn the defamation verdict, arguing that the district court engaged in error by issuing a “‘series of indefensible evidentiary rulings,’ improperly admitting highly inflammatory propensity evidence against President Trump.”

The 2023 lawsuit saw a $5 million jury verdict that held him liable for sexually abusing and defaming the writer, but not liable for rape. Carroll, who claims to have been attacked by multiple men over several decades, accused President Trump of raping her nearly 30 years ago in a prestigious department store, in changing rooms that are usually locked and attended by staff. No eyewitness testimony, relevant surveillance footage, or forensic evidence was produced.

The President was ordered to pay Carroll $83 million in a second civil trial, a decision that Trump is also appealing. He has consistently denied the allegations.

Newsom Demands Investigation Into Musk’s X Platform Over AI Deepfake Complaints.

PULSE POINTS

❓WHAT HAPPENED: California Governor Gavin Newsom (D) has urged the state’s attorney general to investigate Elon Musk’s social media platform, X, over allegations that its artificial intelligence (AI) tool, Grok, has been used to create sexualized deepfake images, including of minors.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Gov. Newsom, California Attorney General Rob Bonta (D), Elon Musk, and X’s AI chatbot, Grok.

📍WHEN & WHERE: Newsom made his comments on Wednesday via social media, addressing issues tied to X and its AI tool, Grok, which has faced scrutiny globally.

💬KEY QUOTE: “xAI’s decision to create and host a breeding ground for predators to spread nonconsensual sexually explicit AI deepfakes, including images that digitally undress children, is vile,” said Newsom.

🎯IMPACT: The allegations have prompted investigations and international scrutiny, with Indonesia and Malaysia temporarily blocking the platform over similar concerns, and the United Kingdom threatening a ban as well.

IN FULL

California Governor Gavin Newsom (D) is demanding his state’s Attorney General Rob Bonta (D) investigate Elon Musk’s social media platform, X, and xAI, over concerns that its artificial intelligence (AI) tool, Grok, is being used to create non-consensual, sexualized deepfake images, some involving minors. Newsom alleged the X platform is a “breeding ground for predators” in a message posted to X (formerly Twitter) on Wednesday.

“xAI’s decision to create and host a breeding ground for predators to spread nonconsensual sexually explicit AI deepfakes, including images that digitally undress children, is vile,” Newsom wrote, adding: “I am calling on the Attorney General to immediately investigate the company and hold xAI accountable.”

The statement follows reports that X’s AI chatbot, Grok, has been under scrutiny for editing images of people to put them in bikinis, often male politicians but sometimes women and girls below the age of majority. As a result, Indonesia and Malaysia have temporarily blocked access to the platform, with the United Kingdom threatening a ban as well.

California Attorney General Rob Bonta (D) echoed Newsom’s concerns, stating, “The avalanche of reports detailing the non-consensual, sexually explicit material that xAI has produced and posted online in recent weeks is shocking. As the top law enforcement official of California tasked with protecting our residents, I am deeply concerned with this development in AI and will use all the tools at my disposal to keep California’s residents safe.”

Elon Musk responded to the claims, denying that Grok generates illegal or explicit images by saying he was “not aware of any naked underage images generated by Grok. Literally zero. Obviously, Grok does not spontaneously generate images, it does so only according to user requests.”

“When asked to generate images, it will refuse to produce anything illegal, as the operating principle for Grok is to obey the laws of any given country or state. There may be times when adversarial hacking of Grok prompts does something unexpected. If that happens, we fix the bug immediately,” he insisted.

U.S. Advances Gaza Peace Plan, Threatens Hamas Over Hostage Remains.

PULSE POINTS

❓WHAT HAPPENED: The United States announced the next phase of its Gaza peace plan, focusing on disarming Hamas, rebuilding, and establishing governance.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff, the White House, Hamas, and the Israeli government.

📍WHEN & WHERE: Announced January 14, 2026, as part of the ongoing U.S.-brokered Gaza ceasefire agreement.

💬KEY QUOTE: “Failure to do so will bring serious consequences,” wrote Witkoff, referring to Hamas’ obligation to return the final hostages’ remains.

🎯IMPACT: The plan’s success hinges on demilitarizing Gaza, establishing a technocratic government, and maintaining the fragile ceasefire.

IN FULL

The United States announced the next phase of its Gaza peace plan on Wednesday, which includes disarming Hamas, rebuilding the region, and establishing a new governance structure. This marks a continuation of President Donald J. Trump’s “20-Point Plan to End the Gaza Conflict.”

U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff shared details in a post on X (formerly Twitter), explaining that the plan will transition from the initial ceasefire agreement reached last year to focus on demilitarization, reconstruction, and the establishment of a new technocratic government. However, no specifics were given about the proposed transitional Palestinian administration.

“Phase Two establishes a transitional technocratic Palestinian administration in Gaza, the National Committee for the Administration of Gaza (NCAG), and begins the full demilitarization and reconstruction of Gaza, primarily the disarmament of all unauthorized personnel,” Witkoff wrote, adding: “Importantly, Phase One delivered historic humanitarian aid, maintained the ceasefire, returned all living hostages and the remains of twenty-seven of the twenty-eight deceased hostages.”

Witkoff emphasized that Hamas must fulfill its obligations by returning the remains of the final hostage, identified as Ran Gvili, who was killed during the October 7 attack. “Failure to do so will bring serious consequences,” Witkoff warned in his statement.

Since the U.S.-brokered ceasefire began in October, 20 living hostages and the remains of 27 others have been returned to Israel. The return of remains remains a critical component of the ceasefire terms, despite accusations of violations by both Hamas and Israel.

U.S., UK Evacuate Qatar Base Amid Iranian Threats, Possible Strikes.

PULSE POINTS

❓WHAT HAPPENED: The United States and the United Kingdom have begun an evacuation of military personnel from the Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar ahead of possible U.S. military strikes against the Islamic Republic of Iran.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Iranian officials, U.S. President Donald Trump, protester Erfan Soltani, and American and British military personnel.

📍WHEN & WHERE: January 14, 2026, in Qatar and Iran.

💬KEY QUOTE: “Help is on its way,” President Donald Trump assured Iranian protesters, promising “very strong action.”

🎯IMPACT: The situation has escalated tensions in the region, with Iran warning of retaliation against U.S. military sites and international diplomatic efforts stalling.

IN FULL

The United States and the United Kingdom have begun an evacuation of military personnel from the Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar ahead of possible U.S. military strikes against the Islamic Republic of Iran and its leader, Grand Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, over reports that the regime has killed over 2,500 of its citizens in a brutal crackdown against anti-government protests. Additional reports suggest that the Iranian regime has arrested an estimated 20,000 demonstrators, with 26-year-old protestor Erfan Soltani reportedly set to be the first to be executed in connection with the unrest.

Regarding the Qatar airbase evacuation, a British Ministry of Defence spokesman stated, “The UK always puts precautionary measures in place to ensure the security and safety of our personnel, including, where necessary, withdrawing personnel.” Meanwhile, the Iranian regime claims that “calm has prevailed,” stating that its forces have quelled the unrest that spread to numerous cities over the last two weeks.

Despite its public insistence that forces loyal to Supreme Leader Khamenei have reasserted control inside Iran, the regime appears to continue to fear a possible U.S. attack. On Wednesday, an Iranian state television broadcast aired footage of the 2024 assassination attempt against U.S. President Donald J. Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania, with the message, “This time, the bullet won’t miss.”

The National Pulse reported on Tuesday that President Trump, during a speech before the Detroit Economic Club, delivered a powerful message to the people of Iran, encouraging them to continue their mass demonstrations against the Islamic Republic and Khamenei. “Help is on its way,” Trump stated, suggesting imminent U.S. military action.
