The king’s message was in support of the Stand Up to Cancer charity campaign. Charles disclosed his cancer diagnosis in February 2024, less than 18 months after taking the throne.

Dec. 12, 2025, 6:33 PM ESTBy Julia AinsleyWASHINGTON — White House pressure to ramp up deportations has sparked rising tension and finger-pointing inside the Department of Homeland Security, with the agency’s secretary, Kristi Noem, and her top advisor blaming subordinates for not hitting arrest quotas and undermining their relationships inside the West Wing, according to two DHS officials with direct knowledge of the matter. Noem and her close advisor Corey Lewandowski have sought to deflect blame from themselves for any White House frustration with the pace and scope of deportations, pinning it instead on the leaders of the agencies in charge of immigration enforcement — acting ICE Director Todd Lyons and Customs and Border Protection Commissioner Rodney Scott, the DHS officials said.Underscoring the turmoil, Scott recently expressed concern to colleagues that Lewandowski is able to monitor his emails, the two officials and another DHS official said, sparking concern among other top staffers that their messages were being reviewed.“Everyone in leadership is so worried about what they say in email and text,” one of the top staffers said.As the agency that carries out President Donald Trump’s mass deportations policy — a core tenet of his agenda — DHS is often under intense scrutiny both inside and outside the White House. The rising tensions within DHS come as deportation numbers continue to lag behind the administration’s own goals with Trump nearing the one-year mark of his second term.White House spokeswoman Abigail Jackson praised Noem’s performance when asked about the finger-pointing.“Secretary Noem is doing a great job implementing the president’s agenda and making America safe again,” Jackson said. “President Trump’s entire immigration team is on the same page when it comes to implementing the president’s agenda and the results speak for themselves — the border is secure, and deportations continue to increase.”Neither the White House spokesperson nor DHS assistant secretary for public affairs, Tricia McLaughlin responded to requests for comment on the finger-pointing and rising tensions inside the agency.Spokespeople for CBP and ICE did not respond to requests for comment.Trump campaigned on a promise to launch the largest mass deportation operation in U.S. history. But the effort has fallen short of expectations thus far. ICE is arresting fewer than 1,000 people a day on average, based on ICE data recently released as a result of a lawsuit, far below the 3,000 daily goal set by White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller in May. (The administration does not release deportation data.) The pressure on Noem and Lewandowski has led to tense confrontations within the Homeland Security Department, the two DHS officials said. Lyons has privately pushed back on the notion that it was his fault there wasn’t more space to detain immigrants and has defended himself to colleagues, the officials said. At one point he threatened to quit, arguing that Lewandowski — not him — was responsible for any decisions related to detention facilities, the officials said.ICE is now moving forward with plans to own and operate its own detention space out of large warehouses, as previously reported by NBC News.The two DHS officials said Scott has been left out of conversations about Border Patrol operations in major U.S. cities as well as social gatherings that have included other top DHS leaders. DHS leaders also have told Scott he may soon be out of a job, the officials said, despite record low border numbers during his tenure.One change in the upper ranks of the department came earlier this week. Noem’s deputy, Troy Edgar was told that Trump plans to name him as U.S. ambassador to El Salvador, a position that would remove him from the No. 2 spot at DHS, according to a person familiar with the plans.Julia AinsleyI am NBC News’ Senior Homeland Security Correspondent.Laura Strickler contributed.

Dec. 13, 2025, 10:11 AM ESTBy Freddie ClaytonTripoli’s Red Castle museum has reopened for the first time since the 2011 uprising that toppled Moammar Gadhafi, unveiling a trove of treasures that span millennia, from ancient mummies to relics of Libya’s turbulent and fascinating history. Formerly known as As-Saraya Al-Hamra, the fortress that houses the museum has long been a central landmark in Libya’s capital, Tripoli. It houses an extensive collection of artifacts tracing 5,000 years of history, from prehistoric times through to Libya’s Roman, Greek and Islamic eras. Collections include Islamic art and architecture as well as objects from Italian colonial rule, World War II and Libya’s independence, with galleries dedicated to the prehistoric period and ancient Libyan tribes, such as the Garamantes.“The reopening of the National Museum is not just a cultural moment but a live testimony that Libya is building its institutions,” Abdulhamid al-Dbiebah, prime minister of the Government of National Unity, said at a ceremony on Friday awash with fireworks at the site.The museum closed in February 2011 during the NATO-backed uprising against Gadhafi, as anti-government protesters in the northeastern city of Benghazi began calling for the leader to step down and for the release of political prisoners. As protests intensified, demonstrators took control of Benghazi and unrest spread to Tripoli, with the Libyan government using lethal force against demonstrators. When rebels launched their first attack on the Libyan capital in August that year, a group of armed men were reported to have entered the national museum, incorrectly believing it to conceal the entrance of a secret government tunnel. The museum’s artifacts were largely left intact, though a 1960s Volkswagen Beetle belonging to Gadhafi was among the regime-linked objects vandalized.Gadhafi was eventually toppled with the help of an international coalition that included the U.S.Renovations for the museum, built in the 1980s and opened by Gadhafi, began in March 2023 by the Tripoli-based GNU.The reopening of the national museum indicates a recovery in the country’s cultural sector, despite unresolved political dynamics. The country remains divided between administrations in the west and east that have not had a unified budget in more than a decade.But with a planned election on the horizon in 2026, Hager Ali, a research fellow at the German Institute for Global and Area Studies, said the museum’s opening carries a political message.The reopening is “kind of like a proof of concept of the western government that they are stable, especially in the forerun of elections,” she told NBC News on Saturday, referring to the GNU. “There really isn’t anything that isn’t political right now in Libya,” she added. “This is very much a kind of a symbol that everyone can get behind.”Since renovations began, Libya has recovered 21 artifacts that were smuggled out of the country after Gadhafi’s fall, notably from France, Switzerland and the United States, the chairman of the board of directors of the antiquities department, Mohamed Farj Shakshoki, told Reuters ahead of the opening.Libya houses five UNESCO World Heritage sites, which in 2016 were all declared “endangered” due to instability and conflict.The historic town of Ghadames in western Libya was among the sites under threat, but conservation work spearheaded by the Managing Libya’s Cultural Heritage project led to the site being officially removed from UNESCO’s List of World Heritage in Danger in July.Freddie ClaytonFreddie Clayton is a freelance journalist based in London. Reuters contributed.
