I'm Will Jarvis, in for Tracy Mumford.
Today's Wednesday, January 28th.
Here's what we're covering.
In Minneapolis last night, Democratic Representative Ilhan Omar held a town hall meeting to address the ongoing ICE operations in the city, parts of which she represents.
A few minutes after she started talking, a man jumped up from the audience, rushed forward, and used a syringe to spray Omar with a substance that smelled strongly of vinegar.
A security officer tackled the man who police arrested on suspicion of assault.
The U.S.
Capitol Police, which investigates threats against lawmakers, said in a statement the attack was unacceptable and would be met with, quote, swift justice.
As the man was hauled away, Omar insisted to her staff that she would continue the event.
Did you see what... A few hours earlier, President Trump, who has repeatedly made inflammatory, racist remarks about Omar and her Somali heritage, had mocked her at a rally in Iowa.
And in a phone interview with ABC News after the attack, Trump, who said he hadn't seen video of the incident, accused Omar of staging it.
He said, quote, she probably had herself sprayed knowing her.
Meanwhile, the backlash to the killings by federal agents in Minneapolis this month has now swept up two key administration officials.
Yesterday, top House Democrats said that Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem should be fired immediately, and that if she isn't, they would push to impeach her, though they would need some Republican support to do that.
And the Times has learned that the administration has barred Gregory Bovino, a senior Customs and Border Patrol officer, from his official social media account.
Bovino had used the account to promote his work and hit back at critics.
He's been recalled from his assignment in Minnesota as the White House tries to do damage control over the aggressive immigration operations in the state.
And in terms of how the administration's immigration policies have been playing out for the whole country, new data from the Census Bureau shows that Trump's approach has contributed to a sharp slowdown in population growth.
According to the numbers, the U.S.
added just over a million people in the first half of last year, one of the slowest growth rates in American history.
