Supreme Court Hears Challenge to Hawaii Gun Ban

The U.S. Supreme Court is set to hear arguments Tuesday on a legal challenge to Hawaii’s strict gun laws, focusing on whether the state can ban firearms on private property that is open to the public unless owners explicitly allow them. The case centers on a rule that prohibits carrying guns in places such as stores, hotels, beaches, bars, and other public-facing private properties without the owner’s consent. The policy was enacted after a 2022 Supreme Court ruling expanded gun rights nationwide, prompting Hawaii to revise its firearms regulations. Supporters of Hawaii’s law argue it protects property rights and public safety by allowing business owners to control whether firearms are permitted on their premises. Opponents say the default ban violates the Second Amendment and effectively prevents lawful gun owners from carrying firearms for self-defense in many everyday settings. The justices are considering only the private-property provision of the law, not the broader restrictions on firearms in sensitive locations. A ruling could have national implications as states continue to navigate the balance between gun rights and public safety following recent Supreme Court decisions.

Virginia Moves Toward Midterm Redistricting Vote

Virginia lawmakers are advancing a plan that would allow voters to decide whether the state should redraw its congressional map ahead of the midterm elections. The Democratic-led General Assembly is pushing a constitutional amendment that would permit redistricting before the next election cycle. Lawmakers say a proposed new congressional map is expected to be released by the end of January, with a statewide referendum scheduled for April. Supporters argue the move would give voters a direct say in how congressional districts are drawn, while critics warn it could open the door to gerrymandering in a politically competitive state known for its mix of Democratic, Republican, and independent voters. Virginia currently sends six Democrats and five Republicans to the U.S. House. If approved by voters, the amendment could reshape the state’s political landscape ahead of the midterm elections.

DOJ Investigates Church Protest Over Alleged ICE Ties

The U.S. Department of Justice says it is investigating a group of protesters who disrupted a church service in St. Paul, Minnesota, after alleging one of the pastors also serves as a local official with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. A livestreamed video posted by Black Lives Matter Minnesota shows demonstrators chanting “ICE out” inside Cities Church during a service. Protesters claim the pastor leads the ICE field office overseeing immigration operations in the region and accuse the agency of using violent and illegal enforcement tactics. Attorney General Pam Bondi said the Justice Department will review the incident and prosecute any violations of federal law. DOJ officials described the disruption as a potential interference with religious worship. The protest comes amid heightened tensions surrounding federal immigration enforcement in Minnesota. ICE has not publicly commented on the allegations regarding the pastor’s role. The investigation remains ongoing.

Trump administration launches “Board of Peace” to oversee Gaza

The Trump administration is moving forward with plans for a new international “Board of Peace” to guide next steps in Gaza, U.S. officials confirmed. Countries can secure permanent membership on the board with a $1 billion contribution, while three-year appointments require no payment. India, Jordan, Australia, Greece, Cyprus, and Pakistan have said they received invitations, with Hungary and Vietnam confirming acceptance. Officials say the board could serve as a major alternative to the U.N. Security Council, where U.S. vetoes have previously blocked action on the ongoing conflict. The official member list is expected to be released in the coming days.

Pentagon places 1,500 soldiers on alert amid Minnesota protests

The Pentagon has ordered roughly 1,500 active-duty soldiers to prepare for a possible deployment to Minnesota, two U.S. officials told Reuters. The move comes after President Donald Trump threatened to invoke the Insurrection Act in response to protests against federal immigration operations. The troops, who specialize in cold-weather operations, are assigned to Army infantry battalions under the 11th Airborne Division based in Alaska. Officials say the units are on “prepare-to-deploy” orders in case violence escalates, but it is not yet clear if any will be sent. Trump had warned Minnesota officials to curb protesters targeting Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents, saying he would “institute the INSURRECTION ACT” if the unrest continued. The federal law allows the president to deploy military forces or federalize National Guard troops to address domestic disturbances. Since early last week, nearly 3,000 federal agents from ICE and Border Patrol have been sent to Minneapolis and St. Paul, where confrontations have intensified following the death of U.S. citizen Renee Good, who was shot by an ICE agent on January 7.

Florida roadway named after Trump

President Donald Trump marked the ceremonial renaming of a roadway near his private club in Palm Beach, Florida, the latest addition to a growing list of buildings, programs, and initiatives branded with his name since he returned to office in January. State lawmakers approved giving an honorary new name to part of Southern Boulevard, a road linking Palm Beach International Airport to Mar-a-Lago, Trump's private club and residence. The road is frequently used by the president’s motorcade when traveling between the airport and the property. Trump said he was "tremendously honored" by the recognition. "I'll remember this amazing gesture for the rest of my life," he said, speaking at the event held at Mar-a-Lago. The name change does not alter official addresses, emergency response systems, or government maps, county commissioners told local news outlets. Since taking office again a year ago, the president's name has been attached to high-profile Washington buildings, a proposed new class of Navy warships, a visa initiative for affluent foreign nationals, a government-run prescription drug website, and federal savings accounts for children. Washington has many buildings and monuments named for presidents, but these honors typically came long after they left office and are usually national tributes, often authorized by Congress.

Senators launch cross-party effort to end stock trading by lawmakers

Two senators from opposite parties are joining forces in a renewed push to ban members of Congress from trading stocks, an effort that has broad public support but has repeatedly stalled on Capitol Hill. Democratic Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand of New York and Republican Sen. Ashley Moody of Florida on Thursday plan to introduce legislation, first shared with The Associated Press, that would bar lawmakers and their immediate family members from trading or owning individual stocks. It's the latest in a flurry of proposals in the House and the Senate to limit stock trading in Congress, lending bipartisan momentum to the issue. But the sheer number of proposals has clouded the path forward. Republican leaders in the House are pushing their own bill on stock ownership, an alternative that critics have dismissed as watered down. “There’s an American consensus around this, not a partisan consensus, that members of Congress and, frankly, senior members of administrations and the White House, shouldn’t be making money off the backs of the American people,” Gillibrand said in an interview with the AP on Wednesday.

Trump thanks Iran for halting executions

President Donald Trump has taken the unusual step of thanking the Iranian government for not following through on executions of what he said was meant to be hundreds of political prisoners. Trump said Friday that he “greatly respected” the move. The sentiment seemed to back away from Trump’s recent suggestions that the U.S. might strike Iran militarily if its government triggered mass killings during widespread protests that swept that country but now have quieted. Several Middle Eastern allies of the U.S. had urged the Trump administration to hold off on striking, fearing such action would destabilize an already volatile region and the global economy.
