The president posted on Truth Social this morning he will invoke the Insurrection Act unless state officials stop demonstrators from attacking ICE officers. Minnesota Governor Tim Walz says the ICE enforcement is causing chaos.
We will reclaim our communities from Donald Trump. We will reestablish a sense of safety for our neighbors and we will bring an end to this moment of chaos, confusion and trauma.
Minnesota Governor Tim Walz spoke in a primetime address after last week's ice shooting death of Rene Good in Minneapolis. Last night, DHS says one of its officers shot a Venezuelan migrant in the leg after two people attacked the officer while he was chasing the man during a targeted traffic stop. Breaking news in another high-profile immigration case.
A federal appeals panel has reversed a lower court decision that released Mahmoud Khalil from custody. Khalil was an outspoken leader of the pro-Palestinian movement at Columbia University. This appeals decision brings the government a step closer to detaining him again and ultimately deporting him. A new development in the Jeffrey Epstein investigation.

Chapter 2: What are the implications of Trump's threat to invoke the Insurrection Act?
President Trump is set to meet today with Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corina Machado. Iran may have reverted U.S. strikes by pledging not to execute protesters following pressure from President Trump. As Bloomberg's Tyler Kendall reports, the president says he's heard that promise from sources on the other side.
The potential for military strikes still remains on the table, though his comments, combined with a top Iranian official pledging not to carry out executions, has appeared to narrow the potential that a U.S. attack is imminent just one day after President Trump urged Iranians to continue protesting and said that help was on the way.
Bloomberg's Tyler Kendall in Washington. Human rights groups say at least 3,400 protesters have died over more than two weeks of unrest. Troops from NATO countries, including France and Germany, are arriving in Greenland. That's after talks in Washington among Denmark, Greenland and the U.S. highlighted disagreements over the Arctic island's future. Bloomberg's Oliver Crook has more.
They're trying to de-escalate the situation. They said that they're now going to start this working group. And I thought it was interesting that the Danish foreign minister said that the working group would be there to explore if, if they can find a common way forward.
Bloomberg's Oliver Crook in Brussels. Denmark says it still has a fundamental disagreement with the U.S. over Greenland's status. On Wall Street, tech stocks are leading gains. Taiwan Semiconductor's positive outlook for the year is giving a new boost to the AI trade, and right now the Nasdaq Composite is up seven-tenths of one percent.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average is six-tenths of a percent higher, and the S&P 500 is up a half percent. Morgan Stanley is up almost five percent after wrapping up big bank earnings with positive results. Bloomberg's Danny Berger has that.
Equities trading revenue, this is interesting, coming in below Goldman Sachs. To remind you, equities trading at Goldman Sachs is $4.3 billion. At Morgan Stanley, it was $3.7 billion. The reason this is interesting is because Morgan Stanley had taken back the equities trading crown. It looks like they are now ceding that to Goldman Sachs.
That's Bloomberg's Danny Berger. And right now, Goldman Sachs shares are up nearly 4%. That bank announced plans to sell $12 billion in bonds after its positive fourth quarter results. Paramount's Skydance is down 0.5%. A judge in Delaware has refused to put the company's lawsuit against Warner Brothers Discovery on the fast track.
Paramount's accusing Warner's board of misleading investors about its buyout agreement with Netflix. And Verizon is down more than 1% after that widespread outage yesterday from coast to coast. The nation's biggest cell service provider says it'll give customers a $20 account credit that will cover multiple days of service. And that's news when you want it with Bloomberg News Now.
