Agents had shot and killed two U.S.

citizens during their enforcement operations last month, prompting demands they be withdrawn and there be restrictions on how they do their job.

Democrats say they should stop detaining people on racial grounds, they should wear identification, and they should stop wearing masks.

Homan rejects those demands.

He was interviewed on CBS's Face the Nation.

Civil rights advocates are raising the alarm about the Trump administration's plan for major cuts to this year's field test of the U.S.

Census.

The changes have heightened concerns about the Census Bureau's

ability to produce reliable population numbers in 2030 for redistributing political representation and funding.

Brazilians may be enjoying Carnival this weekend, but many are taking time out to celebrate South America's first medal, and a gold one at that, at the Winter Olympics.

NPR's Carrie Kahn reports the skier dedicated the medal to his mother's homeland with a photo-grabbing podium high jump and a samba-inspired dance.

American skier Michaela Schifrin is not celebrating.

She continued her winless streak with no medal in the giant slalom.

In 2014, Schifrin won her first, a gold, then a gold and a silver, eight years ago.

She entered as a favorite in 2022 but left empty-handed.

Schifrin has one more event in the Olympics, the women's slalom on Wednesday.

That's considered her strongest event.
