1. Short, Limited Government Shutdown Most federal agencies and benefits (Social Security, Medicare/Medicaid, food assistance, mail service, passports) are unaffected. The shutdown mainly impacts non‑essential services and is expected to last only a few days. Shutdowns are often politically exaggerated, and that even full shutdowns leave most government operations running. 2. Detransitioner Lawsuit as a Legal Turning Point A New York jury verdict awarded $2 million to a woman who underwent gender‑related breast removal surgery as a minor and later detransitioned. The case is presented as: The first successful malpractice/detransitioner lawsuit of its kind. A potential precedent that could encourage similar lawsuits nationwide. The argument is this: to Change medical and hospital behavior. Increase legal scrutiny of gender‑affirming care for minors. Gender‑transition procedures for minors have become a profitable industry. Some hospitals and professionals allegedly prioritize financial incentives and ideology over long‑term patient welfare. The lawsuit can be a tool too: Hold professionals financially and legally accountable. Deter similar practices through litigation risk. 3. Trump’s Withdrawal from UN Agencies and Treaties Withdrew the U.S. from 66 United Nations agencies, programs, and international commitments. Cut or refused funding to several UN bodies, contributing to a UN financial crisis. A move to reduce U.S. taxpayer spending. A rejection of what they characterize as ineffective or ideologically driven international programs. The UN is financially mismanaged and overly dependent on U.S. funding.

Today's Headlines: The federal government is currently shut down after Congress failed to pass a spending bill by Friday's deadline, though Speaker Mike Johnson claims the shutdown could end as soon as tomorrow. Even so, the funding lapse barely registered amid a flood of other major news. On Friday morning, journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort were arrested following their coverage of an anti-ICE protest at a Minneapolis church, despite both repeatedly stating they were there in a journalistic capacity — a development that raised serious press freedom concerns. Around the same time, federal records identified the two immigration agents involved in the fatal shooting of Alex Pretti in Minneapolis, adding more scrutiny to ICE and CBP operations. There was at least one rare piece of good news: 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos and his father were released from an immigration detention center in Texas and returned home to Minneapolis after a judge ordered their release. That decision stood in stark contrast to reports that ICE allowed a suspect in the $100 million Brinks jewelry heist to be deported while continuing to detain families with young children. Elsewhere, the DOJ released more than 3.5 million pages of heavily redacted Epstein files, signaling that no new indictments are expected. President Trump also sued the IRS for $10 billion over leaked tax returns, promoted new Trump-branded savings accounts for children, announced plans to shut down the Kennedy Center for two years, and capped off the week as Democrats scored a surprise victory in a deep-red Texas state Senate district.

The House is returning today to pick up the pieces of a funding fight that plunged the government into another shutdown. Speaker Mike Johnson is faced with the prospect of getting Republicans in line with a razor-thin majority, while Democrats hash out the reforms that they want to see ICE undertake in the wake of the Trump administration's unprecedented mass deportation agenda and immigration crackdown. Playbook's Jack Blanchard and White House Bureau Chief Dasha Burns break down the debate that's gripping Congress this week. Plus, Trump's foray into legacy building — literally — continues.

You wake up floating above your bed. Everything in your room drifts toward the ceiling. Outside, cars lift off highways and trees rip from the ground. According to a leaked government document, this happens on August 12th, 2026 — and NASA has known since 2019.Project Anchor describes a 7-second gravitational shutdown that would kill 850 million people. The document is a hoax. But here's what isn't: we still don't understand what gravity actually is. Einstein described how it behaves, not what causes it. The graviton has never been detected. And for 70 years, anti-gravity research has been classified at levels above Top Secret.Scientists who got too close have disappeared. Some came back. Some didn't. What exactly did they find?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m6F4lHSbmWQ

Senate Democrats were ready to shut down the government Friday night in order to get much-needed reforms to ICE and Border Patrol — but they didn't need to. On Thursday, they made a deal with Republicans and the White House to fund most of the federal government for the rest of the fiscal year. The Department of Homeland Security, however, will only be funded for two weeks while Senators negotiate some guardrails for ICE. So what happens now? To find out, we spoke with Virginia Democratic Senator Tim Kaine on Thursday just before Senate Democrats announced their deal.And in headlines, President Trump hopes for Iranian regime change, the Justice Department files federal charges against the man accused of attacking Minnesota Democratic Representative Ilhan Omar, and activists ask Americans to skip school, work, and shopping Friday to protest ongoing ICE operations.Show Notes: Call Congress – 202-224-3121Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday

Today's Headlines: Democrats and the White House cut a last-minute deal to stop a government shutdown, temporarily boosting ICE funding while they argue over whether the agency should at least identify itself. The deal keeps most of the government running through September. ICE says it's “drawing down” operations in Minnesota, but the damage is already done. Lawmakers visited a Texas detention facility where 5-year-old Liam Ramos is being held after being detained in Minnesota. His father says Liam is sick, withdrawn, and lethargic. New reporting shows just how much surveillance power ICE actually has, from facial recognition and license plate readers to phone location data, drones, and phone-hacking tools. On top of that, ICE is asking ad-tech and data brokers for access to location data.  TikTok users say anti-ICE videos are mysteriously failing to upload or disappearing after the platform's ownership change. TikTok says it's a glitch. Sure. Meanwhile, Trump's acting cybersecurity chief reportedly uploaded sensitive government documents to a public version of ChatGPT, which is now being investigated by DHS. States are getting ready for possible ICE activity. New Jersey's new governor announced plans for a public database where people can upload videos of ICE encounters, plus expanded “know your rights” efforts. In non-ICE related news, a major lawsuit over social media's impact on kids moves forward against Meta and YouTube after TikTok and Snap settled at the last second, there are reports that the Trump administration quietly met with Canadian separatists in Alberta, Tulsi Gabbard resurfaces in Georgia, and—because there's always a grift—Melania Trump already teasing a spinoff to her undersold documentary.

Shutdown

As some Coloradans halt work to protest today, Congress is at work-- to avert a shutdown. The future of ICE is central to both. Then, "I'll consider her case--as I would any other."
