Скачать или смотреть Today: Homan takes over immigration mission, and we look at the FBI's Georgia elections warrant

Today as it Happened on Thursday, January 29, 2026:

Tom Homan, the Trump administration’s “border czar” now overseeing immigration enforcement in Minnesota, said federal agents will prioritize “public safety threats,” adding: “We are not surrendering the president’s mission.”

Homan described the approach as “targeted enforcement activities,” suggesting that the surge of immigration enforcement officers in the region could decline. Officials have said there are nearly 3,000 agents in the Twin Cities region involved in immigration enforcement. Homan said relaxing the surge hinges on cooperation with state and local officials.

A search warrant obtained by Scripps News gives a clearer picture about what federal agents were doing at the Fulton County elections headquarters in Georgia on Wednesday.

The search warrant authorized agents to seize and review a wide range of election records related to the 2020 presidential election in the country. That includes all physical ballots cast in the election, tabulator tapes from voting machines and voter rolls from the 2020 election.

And the Department of Justice has not released a single document pertaining to its investigations into Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell since Dec. 23, and survivors aren't holding their breath that they'll see more relevant documents released any time soon.

"I'm losing faith," Epstein survivor and advocate Lisa Phillips said, "I thought when the president signed the bill, whether he wanted to or not, that we were going to get answers and the files were going to be released at some point, but just seeing what's being released, I just feel like it's a joke."
