Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell says the Department of Justice has served the central bank with subpoenas and threatened it with a criminal indictment over his testimony about the Feds building renovations. The move represents a major escalation in President Donald Trumps battle with the Fed, an independent agency he has repeatedly attacked for not cutting its key interest rate as quickly as Trump prefers. In a video statement, Powell said the threat of criminal charges are pretexts to undermine the Feds independence when it comes to setting interest rates. A spokesperson for U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirros office didnt immediately respond Sunday to a text message and phone call seeking comment.

Some celebrities have donned anti-ICE pins at the Golden Globes ceremony in tribute to Renee Good, who was shot and killed by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer in Minneapolis this week. The pins display slogans like BE GOOD and ICE OUT. Mark Ruffalo wore one such pin on the red carpet, and other celebrities were expected to have them on display as well. Since the shooting Wednesday, protests have erupted nationwide, demanding accountability for Good's death and a separate shooting in Portland. Some protests have led to clashes with law enforcement, especially in Minneapolis. The Trump administration has doubled down in defending the ICE officers actions, maintaining that he was acting in self-defense and thought Good would hit him with her car.

References to President Donald Trumps two impeachments have been removed from his photo portrait display at the Smithsonians National Portrait Gallery in Washington. It's the latest apparent change at the collections of museums that he's accused of bias as he asserts his influence over how official presentations document U.S. The wall text had summarized Trumps first presidency and noted his 2024 comeback, as well as the impeachments. That text was available online Sunday. At the museum, a different photo now appears without any accompanying text block. The White House didn't say whether Trump or aides asked for the text to be removed or changed.

Two of Minnesotas leading Democrats say the investigation into the fatal shooting of a woman by a federal immigration officer shouldnt be handled solely by the federal government. Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey and U.S. Sen. Tina Smith said in separate interviews Sunday that state investigators need to be included in the investigation. Both say a broader investigation is needed because the Trump administration already has made it clear that they believe the officer who shot Renee Good in her car was protecting himself and fellow agents. Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem is dismissing the complaints about local agencies being denied any participation in the investigation.
