- The Department of Homeland Security denied media reports that Border Patrol chief Greg Bovino was removed from his operational role, calling him a key member of the team.
- Senior White House adviser Stephen Miller said investigators are examining whether federal officers failed to follow protocol in the Alex Pretti shooting, which the White House later framed as a review of general directives.
