Live coverage of Tuesday’s political agenda focusing on immigration raids and the Panama Canal


President Donald Trump’s agenda is the top priority on Tuesday, with key events taking place in New York, Florida, and Washington. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem was in New York as Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrested immigrants without legal authorization who have been convicted of crimes. In Florida, House Republicans are meeting to discuss Trump’s goals for tax cuts and spending, with House Speaker Mike Johnson and Vice President J.D. Vance scheduled to speak.

In Washington, the Senate is holding a hearing on the Panama Canal and set to vote on confirming former GOP Rep. Sean Duffy to lead the Transportation Department. Noem, the newly confirmed secretary of Homeland Security, will speak to the workforce after attending the arrests in New York.

Meanwhile, Trump is focusing on immigration enforcement, with the Department of Homeland Security at the forefront. The Senate hearing on the Panama Canal will examine its impact on U.S. trade and national security, with witnesses including government and industry experts. The Senate is also voting on confirming Duffy to lead the Transportation Department, which is expected to pass with bipartisan support.

Trump has an intelligence briefing scheduled, with no public events on his agenda after signing executive orders to eliminate diversity programs in the Pentagon. GOP lawmakers are meeting to resolve disputes over how to accomplish Trump’s priorities, with the goal of approving their agenda without Democratic votes. White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt is scheduled to provide her first briefing at 1 p.m.
