WATCH LIVE: President Trump Participates in Cabinet Meeting Amid Government Shutdown, Peace Progress in Gaza, and Leftist Sedition Over ICE Raids
President Trump will participate in a cabinet meeting this morning to receive a briefing from his cabinet secretaries and take questions from the media.
Today’s meeting comes just hours after Trump announced that Israel and Gaza have signed off on a peace deal.
“Israel will withdraw their Troops to an agreed upon line as the first steps toward a Strong, Durable, and Everlasting Peace,” and “all hostages will be released “very soon,” Trump said on Truth Social last night. There are reportedly 20 living hostages in Hamas custody.
Meanwhile, domestically, President Trump is battling an insurrection by Antifa rioters and far-left leaders impeding ICE operations in Chicago, Illinois, and Portland, Oregon.
Trump and Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem suggested on Wednesday during a Rountable on Antifa event that these leaders could face criminal charges for inciting violence against ICE and impeding federal immigration enforcement. This comes after Chicago Police were explicitly ordered to stand down and ignore the distress calls from federal agents who were ambushed and rammed with cars by a convoy of leftists.
Additionally, in Portland, Noem revealed that as Antifa militants were calling for the murder of ICE, "Portland Police were cheering them on and had their fists in the air, cheering on the rioters that were threatening their lives."
Meanwhile, the Democrats' government shutdown enters its ninth day. The Democrats have refused to pass a temporary spending measure because they demand protections and taxpayer funded healthcare benefits for illegal aliens.
The Democratic Party is an extremist organization actively rebelling against the laws of the United States and the lawful authority of United States law enforcement.
President Trump's cabinet meeting, which was scheduled for 11 am ET, is expected to begin shortly.
