President Trump has just released a statement on this morning's deadly shooting at a Dallas ICE facility.

"I have been briefed on the deadly shooting at the ICE Field Office in Dallas, Texas. It has now been revealed the deranged shooter wrote 'Anti-ICE' on his shell casings," the president wrote on Truth Social. "This is despicable! The Brave Men and Women of ICE are just trying to do their jobs, and remove the 'WORST of the WORST' Criminals out of our Country, but they are facing an unprecedented increase in threats, violence, and attacks by Deranged Radical Leftists.

"This violence is the result of the Radical Left Democrats constantly demonizing Law Enforcement, calling for ICE to be demolished, and comparing ICE Officers to 'Nazis.' The continuing violence from Radical Left Terrorists, in the aftermath of Charlie Kirk’s assassination, must be stopped. ICE Officers, and other Brave Members of Law Enforcement, are under grave threat.

"We have already declared ANTIFA a Terrorist Organization, and I will be signing an Executive Order this week to dismantle these Domestic Terrorism Networks.

"I AM CALLING ON ALL DEMOCRATS TO STOP THIS RHETORIC AGAINST ICE AND AMERICA’S LAW ENFORCEMENT, RIGHT NOW! The Trump Administration is fully committed to backing Law Enforcement, Strong Borders, securing our Homeland, deporting Violent Illegal Criminals, and fully rooting out the Left Wing Domestic Terrorism that is terrorizing our Country. Thank you for your attention to this matter!"

Addressing the actual shooting this morning, Vance told his enthusiastic audience in North Carolina:

"We're all mourning and rooting for and praying for everybody who was injured at that ICE facility, and as far as we know, it looks like some of the detainees -- in other words, some of the potential illegal aliens were some of those who are affected.

"Look, just because we don't support illegal aliens, we don't want them to be executed by violent assassins engaged in political violence."

Homeland Security officials say two detainees were killed and a third was wounded in the shooting by 29-year-old suspect Joshua Jahn, who took his own life as police closed in.

Still more from Vance in North Carolina:

"If you wanna stop political violence, stop attacking our law enforcement as the Gestapo.

"If you wanna stop political violence, stop telling your supporters that everybody who disagrees with you is a Nazi.

"If you wanna stop political violence, look in the mirror. If you wanna stop political violence, look in the mirror. That's the way that we stop political violence in this country, and we've got to do it."

More Vance, from earlier this afternoon in North Carolina:

"When you go around and lie about our law enforcement, and you tell them that they're mistreating five-year-old girls, what do you think is going to happen? When Democratic politicians [encourage] doxxing, when they encourage us to unmask ICE enforcement officers, what do you think is going to happen?

"When the mayor of Los Angeles [Karen Bass] encourages violent protesters to get in the face of our law enforcement, what do you think is going to happen? What's going to happen is political violence, and political violence has gotten out of control in this country.

"We gotta stop it, we gotta condemn it, and that starts, unfortunately, at the very top of the Democratic Party."

In the last hour, Vice President JD Vance spoke at length on this morning's shooting targeting an Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility in Dallas.

"The very people who keep us safe ought to be honored and protected and praised by Democrats and Republicans alike," the VP said during an event in Concord, NC.

"It is time to stop the rhetorical assaults on law enforcement — because here's what happens when Democrats, like [California Gov.] Gavin Newsom, say that these people are part of an authoritarian government; when the left-wing media lies about what they're doing; when they lie about who they're arresting; when they lie about the actual job of law enforcement, what they're doing is encouraging crazy people to go and commit violence.

"You don't have to agree with my immigration policies, you don't have to agree with Donald Trump's immigration policies, but if your political rhetoric encourages violence against our law enforcement, you can go straight to hell and you have no place in the political conversation of the United States of America."

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Tuesday that he believes President Trump’s positions on land swaps with Russia, as a concession for ending the war, has changed. 

“It's important that today we had a good conversation with President Trump, and I think he understands, for today, that we can't just swap territories,” Zelensky told Fox News “Special Report” host Bret Baier.  “It's not fair, it's not real.” 

When asked if Trump’s position has changed, Zelensky responded: “Yes, I think so. And God bless it.”

“It's not about territories,” he added. “It's about the position of [Russian President Vladimir Putin]. He will continue if we will give them more than he really wants.”

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky doesn’t believe Iran will ever support his war-torn nation but thinks India is “mostly” on Ukraine’s side.    

“I think Iran will never be on our side, because [Iran will] never be on the side of the United States,” Zelensky told Fox News “Special Report” host Bret Baier Tuesday.  

“I think India is mostly with us,” he added. “Yes, we have these questions with energy, but I think that President Trump can manage it, with Europeans, [and] make more close and strong relations with India.”

Zelensky said he believes the government of India will eventually “change their attitude to [the] Russian energy sector.”

Getting China on board  “is more difficult,” Zelensky said, arguing, “It's not in their interests to not to support Russia.”

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky accused Russian President Vladimir Putin of being “afraid” to meet with him in a one-on-one setting. 

“He’s afraid,” Zelensky told Fox News “Special Report” host Bret Baier.  

“He's not afraid of me … he’s afraid of such a meeting,” the Ukrainian leader added. 

Zelensky said Putin fears what the “outcome” of a bilateral meeting would be.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said one of his biggest takeaways from United Nations General Assembly gathering Tuesday is the improved relationship he and his team have President Trump.

“The positions of our teams are closer than any time before," Zelensky told Fox News "Special Report" host Bret Baier.

"Details of the situation on the battlefield from intelligence of both countries are similar," he added.

On his own relationship with Trump, Zelensky said: "I think we have better relation than before, and I think we didn't have close relation [before] because we didn't have maybe time, I don't know."

First lady Melania Trump announced the creation of her "Fostering the Future Together" initiative for global technology education on Tuesday in NYC while President Trump meets with world leaders during the UN General Assembly.

"Since technology is evolving at a pace that exceeds lawmaking, we must identify simple solutions to protect our children's ingenuity," the first lady said to an audience of spouses of world leaders gathered at the Lotte New York Palace Hotel.

"Remember our next generation will also teach to revolutionize how we live, travel, design and connect."

Trump said the inaugural meeting of "Fostering the Future Together" will be hosted at the White House in early 2026 — and invited the world leader spouses to attend and adopt the campaign in their countries.

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt has demanded that UN officials investigate whether an escalator at headquarters was "deliberately" stopped as President Trump and first lady Melania Trump stepped on it this morning.

"If someone at the UN intentionally stopped the escalator as the President and First Lady were stepping on, they need to be fired and investigated immediately," Leavitt wrote on X, citing a Times of London report that staffers had been overheard joking that they may switch off the escalator and make Trump walk to the hall to give his speech.

"The safety mechanism was inadvertently triggered by someone who was ahead of the president on the escalator," UN spokesperson Farhan Aziz Haq told The Times Tuesday. "The escalator was immediately reset and is in operation."

Trump also lauded French President Emmanuel Macron, with whom he enjoys a good relationship despite the pair's disagreements about recognizing a Palestinian state.

“He’s doing a really good job. He's fighting hard," Trump told reporters.

"He's fighting on a lot of fronts. He's helping with regard to the Russia-Ukraine catastrophe. And his words of wisdom mean a lot. And we've been friends for a long time now, really from the first term on.”
