Federal immigration enforcement officials called off a planned raid on Canal Street today shortly before it was slated to begin.
New Yorkers who heard about the raid showed up at the garage where the feds had gathered, and as federal agents tried to leave, the NYPD cleared the way for them.

Recent polls show Dem State Rep. Aftyn Behn down by only two points in the special election for Tennessee’s 7th Congressional District—which will be held on Tuesday. The fact that this seat is within reach for Democrats is a very bad sign for the GOP, as Trump won the district by 22 points in 2024.
