“As the walls come down on the part of the White House that’s been synonymous with American first ladies for decades, Melania Trump has remained silent,” CNN reports.

“The first lady has not publicly spoken about the demolition of the East Wing, which has served as the headquarters for presidential spouses since the Carter administration, even though its destruction has now upended her team’s office space and forced the halt of White House tours for the general public.”

“The Trump administration on Wednesday dispatched more than 100 federal agents, including from U.S. Customs and Border Protection, to a U.S. Coast Guard base in the East Bay, marking the beginning of a long-threatened immigration crackdown on the region,” the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

“The Coast Guard and a source familiar with the operation confirmed the surge of federal agents, who are expected to begin arriving Thursday. The decision was seen as a likely precursor to President Donald Trump deploying National Guard troops to San Francisco, mirroring similar immigration operations in other cities around the nation.”

Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) suggested that President Trump’s allies are at risk of not getting into heaven, Politico reports.

Said Newsom: “To see people in positions of power and influence do absolutely nothing when they must know better — and I believe they do … Boy, they’re going to have a lot to reconcile at the pearly gates.”
