23.01.2025 โ‡ข Birthright Order Falls as Fires Rise
โŒจTrump's virtual address to Davos in the morning set an assertive tone with tariff threats and promises of a "golden age," while receiving a $600B Saudi investment pledge. The Hughes fire near Castaic expanded beyond 10,000 acres, with a second blaze erupting along the 405 Freeway into Bel-Air.

By afternoon, a federal judge blocked Trump's birthright citizenship order, marking the first major judicial check on his second term. Pete Hegseth's defense secretary nomination advanced despite revelations of a $50,000 payment to a sexual assault accuser.

Evening coverage centered on Trump's order to declassify remaining JFK, RFK, and MLK assassination files, while immigration enforcement intensified with ICE conducting targeted arrests in sanctuary cities. The Senate's advancement of Hegseth faced growing opposition as a second Republican announced opposition to his confirmation.

The day ended with mounting challenges to Trump's DEI crackdown as federal agencies received warnings about "adverse consequences" for disobedience.
