SUMMARY: The Biden administration has halted online asylum appointments at the international crossing in Laredo, Texas, due to a security situation in the neighboring Mexican city of Nuevo Laredo. U.S. Customs Border Protection has taken into account operational factors, such as relatively low demand for appointments and reports of migrants being extorted by people controlling access to the Laredo port of entry. Asylum seekers said Mexican immigration officials in Nuevo Laredo took their travel documents and demanded money. The U.S. government will reallocate Laredo appointment slots to seven other crossings along the U.S.-Mexico border.

SUMMARY: The FBI confirmed that former President Donald Trump was struck by a bullet in the ear during an assassination attempt on July 13, contradicting earlier uncertainty from FBI Director Christopher Wray. Trump criticized Wray's Congress testimony questioning whether he was hit by a bullet or shrapnel. Texas Representative Ronny Jackson, also Trump's former physician, supported Trump's claim, stating there was no evidence of it being anything other than a bullet.
