Houston mayor bolts early from ICE cooperation after blue wave crashes in Texas

City police will no longer notify immigration authorities during nonviolent contacts like traffic stops or minor offenses

Houston revises ICE cooperation policy after funding threat

Republican Texas Gov. Greg Abbott discusses Houston City Council’s revised policy regarding police cooperation with ICE on ‘The Will Cain Show.’

The Democratic mayor of America’s fourth-largest city is reversing course on cooperation with federal immigration authorities despite an executive order from defeated Texas Republican Gov. Greg Abbott that threatened the loss of millions in state funding for noncompliance.

The Lone Star State swung blue for the first time since its new senator-elect, James Talarico, was born, and Houston Mayor John Whitmire wasted no time Friday announcing new restrictions on cooperation with ICE.

Whitmire told The New York Times that city police are not permitted to notify ICE if they encounter an illegal immigrant in “nonviolent contacts” like traffic stops or minor offenses.

“If they’re charged with a new crime, we’ll let ICE know as we get them to the jailhouse,” he told the paper Friday.

Abbott lost his bid for a fourth term Tuesday, and Talarico flipped one of the state’s Senate seats blue for the first time since Clinton Treasury Secretary Lloyd Bentsen won his final re-election bid in 1988 — seven months before the current senator-elect was born.

Texas’ most recent Democratic governor, Ann Richards, the mother of former longtime Planned Parenthood president Cecile Richards, was elected shortly thereafter in 1990.

Whitmire did not respond to a request for comment but signaled to the Times that he made the decision at least in part because Abbott’s order requiring DHS contact caused “anxiety” among Houstonians.

In a statement put out Friday afternoon, Whitmire said, “I have signed an executive order directing HPD to no longer contact ICE for nonviolent offenses, helping reduce fear in our communities. Thank you to Chief Diaz, our state and local leaders for their collaboration. A step toward building a stronger Houston. Let’s Go to Work.”

He also acknowledged Gov.-elect Gina Hinojosa won’t take office until January but characterized his decision as “responsible” and “more effective policy.”

A DHS spokesperson responded to Whitmire’s move in comments to Fox News Digital.

“We remain disappointed that sanctuary politicians seek to limit cooperation with ICE, as our law enforcement are simply fulfilling their sworn duties to serve and protect our communities,” the spokesperson said.

“Partnerships with law enforcement are critical to having the resources we need to arrest criminal illegal aliens across the country. Seven of the top 10 safest cities in the United States cooperate with ICE. When politicians bar local law enforcement from working with DHS, our law enforcement officers have a more visible presence so that we can find and apprehend the criminals let out of jails and back into communities.

The spokesperson pointed to some recent criminal illegal aliens captured by ICE in Houston – including Alexander Montano of Cuba, convicted of willful homicide, burglary and forced entry into a residence.

Vietnamese national Ding Nguyen, also convicted of homicide, along with Guatemalan national Julio Camey, convicted of sex offense against a child, were also mentioned by the spokesperson.

“You write a citation or you warn them, and they go about their way. No contact with [ICE] over nonviolent, non-jailable offenses,” Whitmire told the AP.

A previous policy enacted in March by Whitmire and Police Chief Noe Diaz stipulated that if a background check revealed an immigration-related warrant, a sergeant would be called to oversee ICE involvement, according to Houston’s FOX affiliate.

The policy also said that if ICE could not make it to the stop within half an hour, the subject would be released.

The Houston City Council subsequently approved an ordinance in April limiting how long officers could detain individuals while awaiting ICE agents, but Whitmire backed revisions after Abbott threatened to withhold more than $100 million in state funding and then-Attorney General Ken Paxton launched an investigation into the city’s immigration policies.

The revised policy restored greater discretion for officers to contact ICE and wait for federal agents during encounters involving civil immigration warrants. Whitmire’s latest announcement would instead limit such notifications to encounters involving jailable offenses, marking a return to the restrictions city lawmakers initially sought.

Palmer, Alaska—

Days before the midterms, federal prosecutors ordered Gerald Heikes, a longshot Senate hopeful in Alaska, to appear before a grand jury with any records he has related to political groups and other candidates in the race, according to documents reviewed by CNN.

The subpoena was sent as part of an accelerating criminal probe into whether operatives aligned with Mary Peltola, the Democratic candidate, sought to recruit spoilers into the race – including another candidate who shares a name with the sitting Republican senator.

Heikes’s subpoena, dated one day after a New York Times story alleged Peltola’s campaign was linked to that effort, shows prosecutors asking for communications related to the Democrat’s campaign as well as several PACs and operatives linked to those groups. The subpoena is signed by a top leader of the civil rights division in Washington, DC, rather than by a prosecutor in Alaska.

“They want me to appear and tell them what I know and how I was recruited, but I wasn’t recruited. I just took a chance,” Heikes told CNN in an interview on Friday.

The DOJ declined to comment for this story. Peltola has denied any knowledge of efforts to recruit other candidates.

Heikes, a conservative who is now in third place in the still-undecided contest, told CNN that earlier this year an operative whose name he does not know pitched him on running for Senate.

Heikes said he had already been aiming to run for office but decided to run for Senate after that meeting.

“I did it out of fascination… I wanted to see what would happen,” Heikes said.

He added, “If they think I’m an operative, they’re wrong.”

Heikes, a drywall contractor based in Palmer, Alaska, suggested he supports Sen. Sullivan over Peltola, but also said that God initially inspired him to run for office about two decades ago when he sought to be governor. He said his intention has not been to peel votes away from any candidate in the Senate race.

Newly created PACs linked to an out-of-state political operative spent millions of dollars attacking Sen. Sullivan and supporting Heikes, CNN previously reported. Heikes said he knows nothing about who is behind that spending. Heikes has received roughly 2% of the vote in the Senate race, with an estimated quarter of votes outstanding.

Alaska has ranked choice voting, though President Trump posted that votes for Heikes and the other longshot candidate, Daniel J. Sullivan Jr., should automatically go to Sen. Sullivan. He referred to Heikes in that post as a “slug.”

“I’ve been called worse. I’m a sheet rocker. I’ve spent over 40 years in trade, so I know every curse word there is. He’s kind of lightweight,” Heikes said when asked about that post.

Heikes said FBI agents served him with the subpoena on Saturday, when he was in another part of the state, hours from his home, helping a friend hang drywall.

“They were very polite and then they left,” he said.

CNN previously reported that DOJ sent target letters to more than a dozen people it believes helped recruit Daniel J. Sullivan Jr.

The recipients include the leadership of the Elias Law Group, the law firm that represents both the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee and Peltola’s campaign, the sources said.

The subpoena to Heikes demands electronic and paper records related Peltola’s campaign and the Elias Law Group, as well as anything related to numerous PACs.

【美国中期选举】共和党惨败后 特朗普提拔强硬派心腹任幕僚长

发布/2026年11月7日 07:03

https://news-multimedia-1393112320.cos.ap-guangzhou.myqcloud.com/20d60f9611ed4a291f73eaea93c71a84841718bd5dcff2918ce148f95d19e328

美国总统特朗普在共和党中期选举惨败后调整白宫人事，任命心腹助手米勒为幕僚长，接替曾助他赢得2024年总统选举的怀尔斯。米勒是特朗普多项强硬国内政策的幕后策划者。

特朗普星期五（11月6日）在自己的社媒平台“真相社交”上发文，宣布米勒（Stephen Miller）由副幕僚长升任为幕僚长；怀尔斯（Susie Wiles）接下来将转入政治运作团队。

米勒将于下星期一（9日）正式就任幕僚长。特朗普称他为自己“最信任的顾问之一”。

路透社报道指，米勒长期主张扩大总统权力，他在共和党本周经历中期选举重大失利后获得幕僚长任命，可能导致特朗普在推进国内议程时，更加依赖行政权力。

同时，一位白宫官员指出，这项任命释放出一个信号：特朗普无意改变自己的政策方针，而是选择嘉奖他最忠诚的助手。

特朗普本周表明，他愿意与国会民主党人合作。不过，米勒立场强硬且从不妥协，一些白宫官员指出，他的晋升可能预示特朗普政府会采取更具对抗性的策略，强力推进施政议程。

现年41岁的米勒是特朗普任职时间最长的助手之一，他在特朗普的各项国内议程中拥有巨大影响力，且深受特朗普信任，能够直接向总统建言献策。

他最广为人知的举动是主导特朗普政府严厉的移民打击行动，并设定每天逮捕3000人的目标。为实现这个目标，联邦移民执法人员扩大抓捕范围，强硬的执法行动引起巨大争议和各界反对。

白宫幕僚长通常拥有极大影响力，被视为总统的“守门人”。69岁的怀尔斯是首个担任这一要职的女性，白宫官员透露，怀尔斯已于星期四（5日）晚间提交辞呈，并将转入特朗普的政治团队工作。

特朗普在贴文中说：“我要感谢她担任幕僚长期间做出的贡献，她干得非常棒！”

At least five democratic socialists plan to withhold support for Jeffries as speaker unless they secure agenda commitments

The midterms are over. But even more pitched battles are underway.

These are internal House and Senate leadership elections. House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., won’t pursue the minority leader post.

President Trump doesn’t always see eye-to-eye with Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., but the president hasn’t demanded a change there.

Some incoming House and Senate progressives have expressed their reservations about House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., despite the stunning Democratic wins from Tuesday night.

REPORTER’S NOTEBOOK: A DEMOCRATIC MAJORITY COULD EXPOSE THE LIMITS OF THE PROGRESSIVE AGENDA

Sen.-elect Abdul El-Sayed, D-Mich., has long warned he might not support Schumer for Majority Leader.

“If you’re Chuck Schumer, I’m dangerous,” El-Sayed advised in late June.

The Michigan Democrat ducked the question when asked about supporting Schumer on NBC just after the election.

“I am going to vote for the option that gives me the best chance of getting money out of politics. Putting money in pockets and passing Medicare for all,” said El-Sayed. “I’m interested to see, working with the rest of our caucus, what options we’ve got.”

By Thursday on CNN, El-Sayed was reiterating his support for Sen. Chris Van Hollen, D-Md., who hasn’t announced he’s running for anything.

“I think he’d be an amazing Senate majority leader,” said El-Sayed of Van Hollen.

But even other newcomers weren’t committing to Schumer.

“No, I will not (support Schumer),” Sen.-elect Adam Hamilton, D-Kan., said on Fox before the election. “And I’ve already said I’m not going to vote (for him).”

“I think it’s really clear that both parties are ready for a new generation of leadership,” Sen.-elect Annie Andrews, D-S.C., told colleague Bret Baier.

“I told Sen. Schumer that I’m going to support somebody else,” offered Sen.-elect Troy Jackson, D-Maine.

But Schumer is shrugging that off.

“I’ll be re-elected as majority leader,” Schumer said when asked by reporters on Wednesday. “But the issue is focusing on the American people and what they want.”

Schumer only needs around 29 of his members to support him in a secret caucus vote to become majority leader. That’s a majority of expected Senate Democrats who will serve next year.

At least five members of the Democratic Socialists of America are pledging to withhold their support for Jeffries as the first Black House speaker in U.S. history unless they secure commitments for their agenda. The successful candidate for speaker requires an outright majority of the entire House — 218 votes of 435, if all Representatives-elect cast ballots — when the new Congress convenes Jan. 3.

Keep in mind that House Democrats may score more than 260 seats once all races are settled. So, he can afford dozens of defections.

For House Republicans, Johnson may have signaled his future last month when speaking to colleague Aishah Hasnie.

“If God moves on our hearts and says we should go back to my hometown of Shreveport and start a lawn business, I’ll do that,” said Johnson.

Now it’s far from certain that Johnson will soon channel Groundskeeper Willie from the Simpsons. But perhaps becoming “The Lawnmower Man” is a better option for Johnson than getting mowed down by your own colleagues in a bid for minority leader.

Maybe the grass IS greener back in Louisiana.

House Majority Leader Steve Scalise, R-La., and Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, are running to become the House’s top Republican. House Majority Whip Tom Emmer, R-Minn., wants to return as minority whip. He’s facing a challenge from Rep. August Pfluger, R-Texas.

But here’s the trick. How do these House Republicans win the leadership positions yet maintain their own coalitions? It’s unclear if Republicans think that Jordan and Scalise are right for the party — right now. Both are aligned with President Trump. And some Republicans hope to move past that.

Regardless, Democrats campaigned on two things: the cost of living and holding the Trump administration accountable. But what does the Democrats’ legislative agenda look like?

This isn’t like 1994, when former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, R-Ga., famously crafted the 10-point Contract with America as a pledge to voters as to what Republicans would do if they flipped the House for the first time in 40 years.

CHUCK SCHUMER AFTER SWEEPING DEMOCRATIC MIDTERM VICTORIES: ‘I’LL BE RE-ELECTED AS MAJORITY LEADER’

Democrats have a host of ideas on what they plan to vote on.

“We have to first get in there and really focus on rolling back the cuts from the one big ugly bill,” Sen.-elect Juliana Stratton, D-Ill., promised on CNN.

Also expect votes on renewing expired Obamacare subsidies. Democrats demanded money to offset the costs of rising premiums in exchange for their votes to fund the government. The House finally passed a bill to do that. But the Senate didn’t. The standoff over the Obamacare aid was the key component to last year’s record-breaking, 43-day government shutdown.

“The shutdown sharpened the American people’s view of the distinction between the parties on this crucial issue,” Schumer said.

Democrats are also focused on a key issue from the midterms: the future of AI and data centers. They’re concerned that AI threatens American jobs.

“This revolt against data centers are just the initial tremors of a bigger AI earthquake that is upending American politics,” said Rep. Greg Casar, D-Texas, chairman of the Progressive Caucus. “And we have to be on the right side of this issue.”

There will undoubtedly be votes to end the war in Iran — perhaps by cutting off money for those operations. The House approved three “war powers” resolutions. The Senate green-lighted one. But those machinations did nothing to hem in the president on the war.

Democrats believe that ending the war will reduce gas prices. And that, in turn, will lower the cost of groceries.

Congressional Republicans balked at unwinding tariffs imposed by President Trump. So, there could be votes on that front, too. Democrats believe the election shifted the dynamic of Republicans aligning behind the President in near lockstep.

“This is the time for (Republicans) to show the courage to end this irrational and self-defeating tariff regime that Trump has put in place,” said Rep. Greg Stanton, D-Ariz.

“Most of them realize that the tariffs from a fiscal and economic perspective are completely self-defeating.”

However, some Republicans aren’t ready to abandon the old playbook, clinging to the GOP’s hallmark legislative achievement of this Congress.

“I think the tax cuts and the Big, Beautiful Bill were underappreciated by the electorate,” Rep. Chris Smith, R-N.J., proffered.

President Trump signaled he’ll both work with Democrats and deploy his veto pen. But it’s about the math. When all House races are settled, Democrats could control more than 260 House seats.

That’s astonishing.

They’re guaranteed 54 Senate seats with Mississippi and Alaska still undecided

It’s about the math. Overriding a veto requires two-thirds of both bodies. That’s 290 in the House and 67 in the Senate. If Democrats hover around 260 seats in the House — and Republicans are ready to ditch the president — hitting the 290 mark isn’t out of reach.

If Democrats clock in at 56 seats in the Senate, cobbling together 11 GOP votes to reach 67 might be tougher. Especially with GOP Trump antagonists like former Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., and senators John Cornyn, R-Texas; Bill Cassidy, R-La.; and Thom Tillis, R-N.C., departing. But they’re in range.

It all hinges on what Democrats can pass. And what the president is willing to sign.

美国国务卿鲁比奥将在共和党中期选举惨败后首次出访，到法国参加七国集团（G7）外交部长会议。

法新社报道，美国国务院星期五（11月6日）在一份简短声明中说，鲁比奥会在11月8日至10日访问巴黎；其间，他将“在与G7伙伴的接触中，推进美国的利益”。

本次为期两天的G7外长会议预计讨论对乌克兰的支持，并探讨稳定中东局势的努力。

沙特阿拉伯、埃及、韩国、巴西和乌克兰等伙伴国家的官员，也会出席会议。

共和党刚刚在本周的中期选举遭遇重大失利，失去国会参众两院的控制权，但这个结果对美国外交政策的影响仍有待观察。美国盟友有机会在本次G7外长会期间，探察特朗普政府接下来的政策意图。

外界也对鲁比奥未来的政治走向展开诸多猜测。不过，他本人否认有关他打算离职的报道。

美国财政部以与受制裁伊朗实体交易为由，对八家总部位于加拿大的货币服务公司实施金融制裁。

路透社报道，美国财政部星期五（11月6日）宣布这项制裁举措，部长贝森特说：“加拿大绝不能成为非法金融中介的避风港，这些中介机构为伊朗政权及其代理人提供规避制裁的服务。”

他表明，美国财政部会在全球范围追踪并切断伊朗政权的金融渠道。

这是美国财政部针对境外企业采取的最新一轮行动，涉事企业位于加拿大安大略省和不列颠哥伦比亚省。

这些制裁实际上切断这些公司与美元金融体系的联系，冻结它们在美国境内可能持有的任何资产，并禁止它们与美国个人或​​实体进行任何交易。

此外，美国财政部下属反洗钱机构金融犯罪执法网络（FinCEN）发布一项指令，切断虚拟货币兑换平台MEXC Global与美国金融体系的联系。

美方称，这个平台涉及的交易与伊朗、朝鲜和俄罗斯规避制裁的行为有关。

White House restores page listing financial disclosures after CBS News inquiry

November 6, 2026 / 6:33 PM EST / CBS News

Washington — The White House’s page listing financial disclosure forms for President Trump and top White House officials went offline without explanation Friday afternoon, only to be restored after CBS News inquired about its removal.

The page,whitehouse.gov/disclosures, serves as a hub for various disclosures required by law, including the president’s annual financial disclosure form and periodic stock transaction reports. It includes financial records for the president, vice president and more than 100 White House staffers, including Susie Wiles and Stephen Miller.

CBS News uses an automated system to monitor ethics disclosures across the government, including those posted on the White House page. The system checks for new filings every 30 minutes. The White House hub was still operational as of 3:01 p.m. Friday, but returned a 404 error at the next routine check at 3:31 p.m., indicating it had been taken down. The disclosure documents themselves were still online.

At 4:20 p.m., CBS News asked the White House press office in an email whether the page had been intentionally removed or whether it was down due to a technical error. CBS News requested a response by 5 p.m. The White House did not reply.

As CBS News prepared a story on the page’s removal, the automated ethics monitor flagged that it was back online, having been restored sometime between 4:31 and 5:01 p.m. The publish time in the source code of the White House page was 22:00:00+00:00, or 5:00:00 p.m. ET.

The White House did not respond to a request for clarification about why the page went down or why it was restored.

When the page came back online, there was [one new file] listed: a report on the president’s stock trades that he signed on Sept. 17. That same report has been [publicly available] on the website of an agency known as the Office of Government Ethics since Oct. 8. Data from the White House server show it was uploaded at 3:14 p.m. The White House has previously posted stock reports within a few days from when they were posted on OGE’s site.

The financial disclosures listed on the page are required to be filed under the Ethics in Government Act of 1978, and the periodic stock reports under the 2012 STOCK Act. The president and vice president file their reports with OGE, and copies of reports from top-ranking White House aides and Senate-confirmed officials are also sent to the agency.

But other White House staffers’ reports stay with the White House, and many of their reports have not appeared on OGE’s website. In September, CBS News found that more than 110 of the roughly 180 officials listed on the White House page did not appear in OGE’s online records.

The president’s financial disclosures have[revealed] thousands of stock transactions his accounts have made since the beginning of the year, including many involving companies that have had business before the government or are directly impacted by his policies. The White House has said the president is not involved in managing his portfolio and that his money is handled by outside financial advisers.

President Donald Trump has named Stephen Miller his new White House chief of staff, calling him one of his “most trusted advisors.”

Miller will ascend to the role on Monday, officially replacing Susie Wiles, who Trump said will be moving to his political operation.

“I want to thank her for her service as Chief of Staff —She has done a great job!” Trump wrote.

Moments after Trump’s announcement, Wiles issued a statement of her own.

“Today is my last day as White House Chief of Staff,” Wiles said.

“Serving President Trump in the White House has been the honor of a lifetime. I’m so proud to have been a part of what we’ve accomplished together from securing our border and cutting taxes to strengthening our economy and putting America First,” she added. “More than anything, I’m grateful for the extraordinary people I’ve had the privilege of working alongside. While my role may be changing, my commitment to the President and the mission never will.”
