Half of Project 2025 Policies Already Implemented

As Donald Trump prepares for his State of the Union address, many of the ultra-conservative policies outlined in Project 2025 are already in effect. The 900-page blueprint, developed by the Heritage Foundation before the 2024 election, had previously been publicly disavowed by Trump. Despite his earlier distancing, analysts say roughly half of Project 2025’s proposals have been implemented during Trump’s first year back in the White House. Measures include a crackdown on immigration, ending federal diversity and inclusion programs, halting billions in foreign aid, and cutting thousands of federal jobs. Project 2025’s centerpiece, the Mandate for Leadership, laid out strategies to expand presidential power and reshape federal agencies. Experts note it not only suggested policies but also provided detailed legal and administrative methods for execution. Early moves by the Trump administration reflected these plans, including reorganizing the United States Agency […]

US Protests Grow After ICE Shooting in Minneapolis

Protests erupted for a second consecutive night in Minneapolis and several other major US cities following the fatal shooting of 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent. Demonstrations also spread to Houston, Cincinnati, Washington DC and Philadelphia, with many protesters demanding the abolition of ICE. In Minneapolis, mourners gathered near the site where Good’s vehicle crashed after she was shot, leaving flowers and candles only a short distance from where George Floyd was killed in 2020. That earlier tragedy had triggered nationwide demonstrations and remains a powerful symbol in the city’s collective memory. Tensions were also high in Portland, Oregon, where two people were wounded during a separate incident involving federal border patrol agents. The Department of Homeland Security said agents were responding to a traffic stop involving a suspected Venezuelan gang member who allegedly […]

Ghana’s former finance minister Ken Ofori Atta has been detained by United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement over issues linked to his immigration status.​His Ghanaian lawyers said ICE picked him up as officials review the conditions of his continued stay in the US, and that his American legal team is working to resolve the matter quickly.​ Ofori Atta has been declared a fugitive by Ghana’s Office of the Special Prosecutor and is wanted in connection with several corruption related investigations.​The Ghanaian government has already filed an extradition request so he can return home to face charges including alleged irregularities in revenue assurance contracts and spending on the National Cathedral project.​ His lawyers say he has a pending petition to adjust his status in the US, which can legally extend a person’s stay beyond the validity of their visa.​They stressed that […]

Trump halts US green card lottery over security fears

The Trump administration has suspended the United States Diversity Immigrant Visa Programme, widely known as the green card lottery, citing security concerns after recent deadly shootings. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem announced that, on President Donald Trump’s directive, the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services has been ordered to pause the programme.​ The Diversity Visa scheme offers up to about 50,000 permanent resident visas each year to people from countries with historically low levels of immigration to the US, many of them in Africa. Beneficiaries are selected through an electronic lottery and can later apply for full green cards and, eventually, citizenship.​ Officials linked the suspension to an ongoing investigation into shootings at Brown University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where the suspected gunman is reported to have entered the US through the lottery programme and later obtained permanent […]

Burkina Faso Refuses to Accept US Deportees

Burkina Faso has publicly refused a US request to accept individuals being deported from the United States, directly challenging a key part of President Donald Trump's immigration policy. The West African nation's foreign minister, Karamoko Jean-Marie Traore, called the proposal "indecent" and stated it was "completely contrary to the principle of dignity." The refusal comes as the US has been seeking third countries, including some in Africa, to receive deportees. The announcement followed a move by the US embassy in Burkina Faso to suspend most regular visa services, requiring citizens to apply from neighboring Togo instead. The minister questioned if this was "blackmail," reaffirming that Burkina is "a destination, not a place of expulsion." Under its current junta leader, Captain Ibrahim Traore, Burkina Faso has distanced itself from Western powers like France and strengthened its ties with Russia.

US Offers Migrant Teens $2,500 to Voluntarily Leave Country

The Trump administration is launching a new program that will offer $2,500 to unaccompanied migrant teenagers if they voluntarily agree to leave the United States. According to a report, the initiative will start with 17-year-olds and requires approval from an immigration judge. The payment would be issued after the teen arrives in their home country to aid with "reintegration." An Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) spokesperson stated the program is "strictly voluntary" and allows minors to make an "informed decision." The administration already offers a smaller "exit bonus" to adults who choose self-deportation. However, the policy has drawn sharp criticism from immigrant advocates. They argue that offering money to children undermines legal protections for vulnerable youth and could pressure them to return to dangerous conditions in their home countries.

US deports Liberia ex-rebel commander ‘Black Diamond’

The United States has deported Mayama Sesay, a former Liberian rebel commander widely known by the alias “Black Diamond”, for her role in recruiting and leading child soldiers during Liberia’s second civil war. The US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) said Sesay, 43, was expelled in September after years of legal battles over her immigration status. According to ICE, Sesay entered the US on a visitor’s visa in 2014 and sought permanent residency the following year after marrying a US citizen. However, she was taken into custody in April 2025 by ICE officers in Atlanta following an immigration judge’s ruling that she lacked credibility and had indeed recruited child soldiers. “Sesay, infamously known as the rebel commander ‘Black Diamond,’ played a prominent role in recruiting and leading child soldiers during Liberia’s civil wars,” ICE said in a statement.“She commanded an […]

One dead, two injured in Dallas ICE facility shooting

A deadly shooting occurred Wednesday at a US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detention facility in Dallas, Texas, leaving one person dead and two others injured, according to officials. The suspected gunman, positioned on the roof of a nearby building, opened fire on the facility before dying from a self-inflicted gunshot wound, Dallas police confirmed in a post on X (formerly Twitter). Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem condemned the attack, saying:“While we don’t know the motive yet, we know that our ICE law enforcement is facing unprecedented violence. It must stop.” Local broadcaster Fox4 reported that the victims were detainees in ICE custody. No ICE officers were injured. ICE deputy director Madison Sheahan told Fox News:“We’ve seen a lot of violence at ICE facilities, and this is not the first time this year. These attacks must stop.” Vice President JD […]

US immigration raid at Hyundai Georgia plant leads to 450 arrests

US immigration authorities carried out a sweeping raid at Hyundai’s massive manufacturing site in Georgia, arresting more than 450 people in what officials described as one of the largest operations of its kind in recent years. The facility, a 3,000-acre complex built by the South Korean automaker to produce electric vehicles, has been operational for only a year. According to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), agents executed a search warrant based on allegations of unlawful employment practices and other serious federal crimes. The raid involved several agencies, including Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF). The South Korean foreign ministry confirmed that Korean nationals were among those detained, calling the arrests an “unjust infringement” on their rights. In a statement, it urged Washington to ensure that Korean citizens’ interests were not […]
