Today’s Headlines: The White House’s OMB rescinded its federal spending freeze memo, but the policy remains, prompting legal challenges. A federal judge may now block it indefinitely. Meanwhile, a controversial buyout offer to federal workers is under scrutiny for its similarity to Elon Musk’s Twitter layoffs. Trump signed the Laken Riley Act, mandating indefinite detention for arrested immigrants, and announced a migrant detention facility in Guantanamo Bay. RFK Jr.'s contentious HHS confirmation hearing saw him grilled on vaccine misinformation and policy confusion. A tuberculosis outbreak in Kansas has caused 67 cases and two deaths. The FDA issued its highest-level recall for Frito-Lay chips in Oregon and Washington over safety concerns. Ex-Senator Bob Menendez was sentenced to 11 years for bribery, calling it a “witch hunt.” Reports suggest the DOJ may drop its corruption case against NYC Mayor Eric Adams, who has been in contact with Trump. Meta settled Trump’s lawsuit over his social media suspension, paying $25M—mostly to fund his future presidential library.
