A new report finds the number of people in ICE detention has nearly doubled in Trump's first year back in office, driven by indiscriminate arrest policies that have locked up more and more people without criminal records, "an unprecedented situation for immigration detention." We break down the numbers with Aaron Reichlin-Melnick, a senior fellow at the American Immigration Council, which published the report. Reichlin-Melnick explains that ICE's annual budget has approximately quintupled, even as 2025 marked the agency's deadliest year so far. Four more people have already died in detention in just the first two weeks of 2026. "Crucially, all of this has been slower than they wanted," he adds. "Their hope was to have over 100,000 people in detention by today; they've hit 70,000."

Iran has said it's ready for "war" or dialogue after President Trump said the U.S. was considering "very strong options" to intervene if Iran's security forces kill anti-government protesters in an ongoing crackdown. Vali Nasr, professor at Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies, says the U.S. "can wage full-scale war on Iran — which President Trump does not seem to be eager to do — or it can hope to squeeze Iran economically in order to create political unrest in Iran."
This comes as at least 648 people have been killed since protests broke out in late December, according to the Norway-based group Iran Human Rights, and over 10,000 people have been arrested. Iranian officials say the number of dead could be as high as 2,000.
