Attorney General Pam Bondi was warned by a judge to be cautious with her statements about Luigi Mangione to ensure a fair trial. Mangione, a 26-year-old suspect, pleaded not guilty to charges of killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson.

Legal experts predict that President Donald Trump's deportation cases using an 18th-century wartime authority will likely reach the Supreme Court as courts examine due process claims. A recent lawsuit filed in Washington is part of a series challenging the Trump administration's use of the Alien Enemies Act to deport migrants to a prison in El Salvador. US District Judge Stephanie Gallagher ruled that the administration violated a settlement agreement with a group of asylum seekers by deporting a 20-year-old Venezuelan under the 1798 Alien Enemies Act. The Department of Homeland Security argued in Massachusetts that they did not breach the order modifying the deportation process because a different federal department carried out the removals. This case follows a previous legal battle over another man wrongly deported to El Salvador by the Trump administration.

Israel has apologized to the United Nations for damaging a U.N. structure in Gaza with tank fire, resulting in the death of a Bulgarian aid worker. The incident occurred during a conflict with Hamas, where over 50,000 people have been killed by Israeli fire. The Israeli military initially claimed the vehicles targeted were suspicious, but a recording later revealed a different story. The investigation attributed the incident to an "operational misunderstanding" and professional failures.

Five Jewish Democratic senators, including the minority leader, criticized President Trump's approach of targeting certain colleges for instances of antisemitism. The tensions between Harvard and the Trump administration have escalated, with the president labeling the university as "antisemitic" and a "threat to democracy." The Trump Organization ended its relationship with attorney Bill Burck after Trump expressed dissatisfaction with Burck's dual roles working for Trump's business and Harvard. The administration has focused on Harvard and other top U.S. universities for alleged "anti-Semitic" sentiment following a recent terrorist attack. Harvard's president stated that he had to oppose the administration's funding cut decision. Although Trump did not mention the lawyer by name, it was likely a reference to William Burck, a partner at Quinn Emanuel.
