Trump admin updates: US military is preparing for possible activation of National Guard in DC

President Donald Trump will sign an executive order on Tuesday creating a task force to help oversee the 2028 Olympics in Los Angeles, a White House official confirmed to ABC News.

"The creation of this task force marks an important step forward in our planning efforts and reflects our shared commitment to delivering not just the biggest, but the greatest Games the world has ever seen in the summer of 2028," Casey Wasserman, the chairperson and president of LA28, said in a statement about the task force.

The task force was first reported by the Hollywood Reporter.

Trump has long touted that he helped secure the 2028 Olympics in the U.S. during his first term and has expressed his excitement for the event.

“The President considers it a great honor to oversee this global sporting spectacle in his second term. Sports is one of President Trump’s greatest passions, and his athletic expertise, combined with his unmatched hospitality experience, will make these Olympic events the most exciting and memorable in history," White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said in a statement about the task force.

The federal judge who oversaw Jeffrey Epstein’s prosecution in New York on Monday posted to the docket anonymous letters from purported victims saying the Trump administration’s push to publicize grand jury material would re-victimize them.

The docket does not make clear the origin of the letters but the judge’s chambers confirmed they were properly filed by an attorney for the purported victim.

A new analysis from the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office said President Donald Trump's sweeping tax cut and spending bill passed last month will create $718 billion in additional debt-service costs, bringing the law's overall debt projection to $4.1 trillion over 10 years.

"As a result, and net of any changes in borrowing for federal credit programs, the agency estimates that the legislation will increase debt held by the public at the end of 2034 by 9.5 percentage points relative to CBO's January 2025 baseline budgetary projections of gross domestic product (GDP). Other factors, such as administrative actions affecting tariffs and immigration, also have affected deficits and debt since January 2025 and will be reflected in CBO's next baseline," the report stated.

Previously, the CBO said the Senate's final version of Trump's massive policy and tax bill would add $3.4 trillion to the deficit over the next decade. The new analysis released on Monday comes after Sen. Jeff Merkley, D-Ore., requested an update on the bill's impact on the debt.

The Indian government responded on Monday after President Donald Trump posted on social media that he will be "substantially raising" tariffs on the nation over its purchases of Russian oil.

India's Ministry of External Affairs released a statement detailing why it buys certain commodities from Russia and called the targeting of India "unjustified and unreasonable."

"India's imports are meant to ensure predictable and affordable energy costs to the Indian consumer. They are a necessity compelled by global market situation. However, it is revealing that the very nations criticizing India are themselves indulging in trade with Russia. Unlike our case, such trade is not even a vital national compulsion," the ministry said.
