Trump admin updates: Trump calls for expanded deportations in LA, NYC and more

Trump ordered ICE "to do all in their power" to achieve deportation goals.

The Department of Homeland Security confirmed to ABC News that it issued new guidance to pause most raids on farms, restaurants, and hotels, after President Trump earlier this week shifted his stance on targeting undocumented workers in those industries.

Meanwhile, a massive military parade to mark the Army's 250th birthday will be underway Saturday in Washington, D.C.

California Sen. Alex Padilla removed during DHS Secretary Kristi Noem's news conference

Sen. Alex Padilla, a California Democrat, was forcibly removed from Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem's news conference at a federal building in Los Angeles.

Padilla tried to interrupt the news conference, saying he had questions for the secretary. He took a few steps toward the podium before officers immediately grabbed him and shoved him out of the room. He was heard saying "hands off me" as he was being forced out.

LA Mayor Karen Bass just reacted on X: "What just happened to @SenAlexPadilla is absolutely abhorrent and outrageous. This administration's violent attacks on our city must end."

California Gov. Gavin Newsom also responded on X: "This is outrageous, dictatorial, and shameful. Trump and his shock troops are out of control. This must end now."

Trump questions why 'everybody hates Russia' post World War II

President Donald Trump was asked about Saturday's military parade and what people should take away from it.

"How great our country is, very simple, and how strong our military is," he responded.

Trump then claimed that other countries around the world celebrate the end of the World Wars except for America.

Veterans' Day coincides with the anniversary of World War I.

The president then remarked, unprompted, how he spoke with Vladimir Putin about Russia's role in the war.

"Russia fought, sort of interesting, ... with us in World War II and everybody hates them. And Germany and Japan, they’re fine. You know, someday somebody will explain that," Trump said.

"I like Germany and Japan too but Putin is confused by that, you know. He said we lost 51 million and we were your ally and now everybody hates Russia and they love Germany and Japan. I said let's explain that sometime, okay. It is a strange world," he added.

The president claimed that he was going to have an order on the farm workers "soon."

"We're going to have to use a lot of common sense on that," he said.
