And I jumped on a plane and went to go see him as soon as I could‚” Harry said when Reeve asked how he found out King Charles had cancer. “Look‚ I love my family. The fact that I was able to get on a plane‚ go and see him‚ and spend any time with him — I’m grateful for that‚” the former senior working royal said during the interview.  The Duke of Sussex refused to comment further on the precise status of his father’s health‚ telling Reeve‚ “That stays between me and him.” Things have been tense between Prince Harry and the rest of his family since January 2020 when he and Meghan Markle announced that they were stepping down from their roles as working royals and moving to the United States. These tensions were further exacerbated after the pair participated a tell-all interview with Oprah the following year and after Harry’s memoir was published in 2023. But the Duke of Sussex indicated that King Charles’ diagnosis could have a reconciliatory effect. “Yeah‚ I’m sure‚” Harry said when asked about the possibility. “Throughout all these [Invictus Games] families‚ I see it on a day-to-day basis‚ the strength of the family unit coming together.

The Biden administration removed its second-in-command of the U.S. Border Patrol this week for an alleged misconduct violation. The administration confirmed the removal of Acting Deputy Chief of the U.S. Border Patrol Joel Martinez‚ a 31-year Border Patrol veteran‚ in a statement late on Thursday. “We do not tolerate misconduct within our ranks‚” the statement said. “When we discover any alleged or potential misconduct‚ we immediately refer it for investigation and cooperate fully with any criminal or administrative investigations. This is the case whether the alleged misconduct occurs on or off duty. Federal privacy laws prohibit discussion of individual cases.” The Washington Post reported that Martinez‚ who has held multiple leadership positions within the U.S. Border Patrol‚ was not under arrest. Martinez’s removal comes just days after U.S. Border Patrol Academy Chief Ryan Landrum was also relieved of his command and placed on administrative leave. The Border Patrol gave an identical statement on Landrum. NEW: The #2 at U.S. Border Patrol is now out—Deputy Chief Joel Martinez has been removed and placed on administrative leave due to misconduct allegations—Agency officials did not provide details about what Martinez reportedly did to prompt this action‚ citing privacy laws.… pic.twitter.com/kgAgi3TeWe — Ali Bradley (@AliBradleyTV) February 16‚ 2024 The removal of the two Border Patrol officials comes as the Biden administration’s policies at the border have triggered what many have referred to as an “invasion” — millions of illegal aliens flooding into the U.S.‚ overwhelming border states and cities across the country. A new poll released by Pew Research Center this week found that only 18% of Americans believe that the federal government is doing a good job handling the border‚ a disastrous number for President Joe Biden heading into the November elections‚ while 80% of Americans believe that the government is doing a bad job. CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP U.S. Border Patrol Chief Jason Owens said in an interview earlier this month that the agency was stretched so thin due to the scale of the crisis that he has serious concerns about the types of illegal aliens that are able to evade capture and sneak into the U.S. “And those are the numbers [hundreds of thousands of known gotaways] that really‚ for us‚ keeps us up at night because if you know that all you need to do is turn yourself in to the Border Patrol and go through the process‚ what possible reason would you have for wanting to evade capture and put yourself in danger to cross through the desert or be in a stash house or lock yourself in the back of a tractor trailer?” he said. “Could it be that those are the folks that probably have criminal intent‚ that have bad intent‚ that represent a possible threat to the people of this country? That’s the kind of thing that keeps us up at night.” Related: Senator Murphy On Democrats’ Priorities: ‘People We Care About Most’ Are ‘Undocumented Americans’

The Biden administration failed to properly vet and monitor adults in homes where they placed migrant children in 2021‚ a federal watchdog has found. Basic required checks like criminal background checks were not performed on some adults who ended up housing children‚ according to a report released Thursday by the Department of Health and Human Services’ (HHS) inspector general’s office. In just March and April of 2021‚ HHS placed 16‚790 children with adults. The federal watchdog looked at the case files of 342 of those migrant children‚ just a small subset of the many thousands of children who showed up at the border in the previous months. In 16% of the cases the watchdog looked at‚ HHS failed to prove it had performed any basic safety checks like background or address checks. Also‚ in more than a third of the cases reviewed by the inspector general‚ HHS could not produce legible documentation for the adults. This means their IDs had issues like missing holograms or blurry images‚ raising concerns about them being forged. “We found that children’s case files and sponsor records were not always updated with important documentation and information‚” said Haley Lubeck‚ an analyst for the inspector general’s office. In about a fifth of the cases reviewed‚ HHS did not check on the children it had placed in a timely manner‚ sometimes for months. The HHS responded to the report by saying most of the issues it cited are things the department is already addressing. “The overwhelming majority of findings and recommendations address records management and documentation issues that (the agency) has already improved through training‚ monitoring‚ technology‚ and evaluation‚” HHS spokesman Jeff Nesbit said. Last year‚ HHS was criticized for releasing migrant children too quickly‚ resulting in some of them being exploited for child labor. Dozens of migrant children‚ some as young as 12‚ said they were working overnight or at dangerous jobs for companies in the U.S.‚ an investigation from The New York Times reported in February 2023. CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP Meanwhile‚ the Biden administration is dealing with an ongoing crisis at the southern border‚ with hundreds of thousands of migrants illegally crossing into the country every month. In December‚ authorities encountered 302‚000 migrants at the border‚ the highest monthly total on record and the first time the total has ever topped 300‚000. Overall last year‚ 2.5 million migrants were apprehended crossing or trying to cross the southern border‚ according to the CBP. However‚ that does not include the more than 96‚000 “known gotaways‚” migrants who were detected but not caught‚ or the unknown gotaways. President Biden’s approval rating on immigration hit an all-time low of 32% last month‚ and his overall approval rating remains low as well.

McDaniels and Ziegler were let go mid-season and linebacker coach Antonio Pierce was made interim head coach. In January‚ the Raiders announced that Pierce would be their full-time head coach with Tom Telesco taking over as general manager. With new leadership in Vegas there’s reportedly no commitment to keeping Garoppolo‚ ESPN noted. CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP The two remaining quarterbacks on the Raiders roster are Aidan O’Connell and veteran Brian Hoyer‚ but the Raiders are expected to draft a quarterback‚ with some expecting the Las Vegas team to trade up from its 13th spot they currently hold in order to get a high-end QB. Garoppolo previously played for the New England Patriots as well as the San Francisco 49ers. His best year with San Francisco was the 2019-2020 season when he helped take the team to Super Bowl LIV against the Kansas City Chiefs. The Chiefs ended up beating the 49ers in the Super Bowl 31-20. Garoppolo took the team back to the playoffs and led the team to an NFC Championship in 2021. He signed on as a free agent in 2023 with the Raiders‚ where he finished the 2023 season with a passer rating of 77.7 with 1‚205 yards‚ 7 touchdowns and 9 interceptions in 7 games.
