Chaos erupted on the streets of San Francisco on Tuesday as federal immigration agents clashed violently with protesters outside a city courthouse. The confrontation, now being called the most violent of its kind in the city this year, saw Immigrations and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents using aggressive tactics against a group of approximately 20 demonstrators.
The tense situation began around 11:18 a.m. when ICE agents attempted toescort a detained man from the courthouse. Protesters quickly formed a human chain, using their bodies and bicycles to block the exit while shouting anti-ICE slogans. In response, several agents, with their faces covered, were seen deploying pepper spray, pushing protesters to the ground with batons, and yelling expletives. The situation escalated dramatically when one agent brandished a rifle to intimidate the crowd.
The most shocking moment occurred when a black SUV, reportedly waiting for the agents, sped through the crowd of protesters. Witnesses reported that a woman was thrown from the hood of the moving vehicle, which then almost ran her over a block away. This incident has sparked outrage and raises serious questions about the use of force by federal agents during public demonstrations in the United States.

During an Oval Office meeting with South African President Cyril Ramaphosa, Donald Trump lashed out at NBC’s Peter Alexander over a question about a $400 million private jet gifted by Qatar. Instead, Trump redirected the conversation to what he claimed was the “genocide” of white South African farmers, presenting a controversial video and accusing Alexander of ignoring white suffering. The tense moment highlighted Trump’s continued push on racially charged narratives, refugee decisions, and diplomatic theatrics involving U.S. allies and global perception.

The US is reportedly considering relocating up to one million Palestinians from Gaza to Libya, NBC reported, citing sources. In return, Washington may unfreeze $30 billion in Libyan funds. The plan has sparked outrage, with critics calling it a violation of international law and Palestinian rights. Libya remains unstable with rival governments vying for power. The Trump administration has denied the claim, calling it “untrue.” Discussions allegedly included Israeli and Libyan leadership, but no final deal has been reached. Human rights groups have condemned the potential displacement.

Ahead of the United States' Independence Day celebrations, federal agencies have issued a serious warning about potential terrorist attacks, specifically from lone wolf actors. This elevated threat level is a direct consequence of escalating tensions in the Middle East, where the U.S. has become more involved in the ongoing Israel-Iran conflict. The situation intensified after U.S. B-2 Spirit bombers conducted a major operation on June 22, dropping heavy bunker buster bombs on three of Iran's nuclear facilities in a strategic move to aid Israel.
In response to the potential for retaliatory attacks, security has been visibly bolstered across the country. New York Governor Kathy Hochul has identified lone wolves as the "greatest threat" to July 4th events, announcing an increased presence of State Police and the deployment of National Guard units at major transportation hubs, bridges, and tunnels throughout New York City. Authorities are also closely monitoring social media for any signs of cyber threats or domestic terror plots.
The threat is not limited to New York. An FBI bulletin has specifically warned that San Francisco's famous fireworks show could be a target for a mass casualty attack. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has officially raised the national threat level to "Heightened" and stated it will remain in effect until September 22, citing the direct link to the escalating conflict between Iran and the U.S. While no specific or credible plots have been identified, federal and state agencies remain on high alert to counter any security situation that may arise during the holiday.
