A 14-year-old girl, Paloma, filmed herself hiding with family after spotting Border Patrol agents outside. NPR isn't using her full name because members of her family are undocumented.
My aunt called me and she was like, it's ICE here, tell your dad because my dad is immigrant. So I was very scared, so I ran downstairs and I closed the door, then I went to my mom's room.
Her dad isn't working this week, and her brother isn't going to school. Officials say 44 people detained in Charlotte have criminal backgrounds. Two are suspected gang members. Others have no criminal history. For NPR News, I'm Nick Della Canale in Charlotte.
The Senate has passed a bill forcing the release of the Jeffrey Epstein files, sending the measure to President Trump's desk. Trump has said he'd sign it into law. And here's Claudia Grisales reports the plan drew near unanimous support in the Republican-led Congress.
The Senate quickly approved the bill by voice vote after the plan drew near-unanimous support in the House. For much of the year, President Trump fought the release of the government records tied to the disgraced financier and convicted sex offender. But President Trump reversed his stance once the momentum shifted for passage of the Epstein Files Transparency Act.
The legislation directs the Justice Department to release the records within 30 days. allowing limited exceptions to withhold any information. The bill's authors, Kentucky Republican Thomas Massey and California Democrat Ro Khanna, warn the Trump Justice Department will face legal action if it does not fully comply.
