U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement says it expects every officer and agent in the field to be equipped with a body camera by the end of August, a rapid expansion that could provide an unprecedented visual record of the federal government’s immigration enforcement operations. But whether the public will get to see that footage remains largely up to ICE. The agency defended its body-worn camera policy amid questions about provisions allowing ICE leadership to withhold or indefinitely delay footage after serious injuries or deaths in custody. Venturella’s statement came in response to an Associated Press report on ICE policy.

U.S. President Donald Trump says he'll order American forces to hold off on strikes he had threatened against Iran, claiming Mideast allies have reached the parameters of a deal to end the war. Trump said in a Saturday evening social media post that for now, he will halt new strikes in the 5-month old war. A day earlier, he had threatened more strikes on Iran as the U.S. pushes to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. But Iran’s Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmail Baghaei said on Sunday that there were no talks about reopening the strait, which would not return to its pre-war status.

Donald Trump has shifted his tone on former President Jimmy Carter, whom he once sharply criticized. Trump now faces similar challenges, like inflation and the war in Iran, which has led to comparisons between their presidencies. Last month, Trump mentioned Carter while discussing Iran, reflecting on Carter's failed 1980 hostage rescue mission. Although Trump still criticizes Carter, he has expanded his comments on past presidents, including Democrats, as he mulls his own historical legacy. While Trump has somewhat softened his rhetoric, major differences remain between the two leaders, especially in their personal lives and their approach to most major policy issues.
