Judge James Boasberg determined Wednesday that he has "probable cause" to hold Trump administration officials in contempt of court for defying orders to stop a pair of deportation flights, Breitbart reported. Boasberg previously issued a temporary restraining order on the deportations.
President Donald Trump designated MS-13 and Tren de Aragua as terrorist organizations. He began deporting these criminal illegal aliens using the Alien Enemies Act.
Predictably, the left was incensed at the idea that criminals in the country illegally would be removed. The Soros-backed Democracy Forward organization and the American Civil Liberties Union represented five suspected gang members who were illegal aliens to challenge Trump's use of the law.
However, two flights had already taken off with as many as 300 of these types of suspected criminals on board. They were headed to El Salvador when Boasberg issued his temporary restraining order, thus making it impossible to comply with his order.
Although Boasberg tried to stop the deportation, the planes had already landed at their destination. Later, the Supreme Court vacated the order anyway, finding Trump was within his rights to use the Alien Enemies Act as long as those deported received due process.
Nevertheless, Boasberg announced in a memo that the Trump administration showed "willful disregard" for his orders. "As this Opinion will detail, the Court ultimately determines that the Government’s actions on that day demonstrate a willful disregard for its Order, sufficient for the Court to conclude that probable cause exists to find the Government in criminal contempt," Boasberg wrote.
"The Court does not reach such conclusion lightly or hastily; indeed, it has given Defendants ample opportunity to rectify or explain their actions. None of their responses has been satisfactory," the judge claimed.
Boasberg claimed that just because the Supreme Court later vacated his order doesn't mean the government could disregard it. "Instead, it is a foundational legal precept that every judicial order "must be obeyed” — no matter how “erroneous” it “may be” — until a court reverses it," the judge added.
He added that the move undermined the courts and contradicted the Constitution. "For the foregoing reasons, the Court will find probable cause that Defendants’ actions constitute contempt," Boasberg added.
This inflammatory move from the judge is no surprise, as Boasberg has a history of decisions that Trump sees as judicial activism. According to Fox News, the Obama-appointed judge has a hand in several cases involving the president and his administration.
Last month, Boasberg was assigned to preside over a case between the administration and the National Archives and Records Administration. Trump took to his Truth Social on March 27 to rail against Boasberg's appointment to that case.
"How disgraceful is it that ‘Judge’ James Boasberg has just been given a fourth 'Trump Case,' something which is, statistically, IMPOSSIBLE. There is no way for a Republican, especially a TRUMP REPUBLICAN, to win before him," the president claimed.
"He is Highly Conflicted, not only in his hatred of me — Massive Trump Derangement Syndrome! — but also, because of disqualifying family conflicts," Trump claimed and later asserted it was impossible for him to get a fair trial anyway. "There must be an immediate investigation of this Rigged System, before it is too late!" Trump added.
The left is trying to stop Trump with challenges in the courts and other tactics. Whether Boasberg proceeds with his threat or not, he has escalated the standoff between him and the administration.
Investigators found that Betsy Arakawa, Gene Hackman's wife, searched for symptoms of the flu and COVID-19 in the days leading up to her death from hantavirus in February, the New York Post reported. Police have been combing through digital data, voicemail, and security footage in the hopes of piecing together the timeline of the tragedy.
Her internet search history indicates that Arakawa was looking up information such as whether nosebleeds and dizziness were associated with the common seasonal maladies. These searches occurred between Feb. 8 and 12, the day she is thought to have died.
Email records show that Arakawa reached out to her masseuse for advice on whether to seek medical intervention for Hackman. She also searched for Santa Fe health care on the day she is thought to have died.
The 65-year-old was the primary caretaker for Hackman, who was suffering from a heart condition and Alzheimer’s disease. Hackman, 94, died at home nearly a week later, and both bodies went undiscovered for some time after.
According to Fox News, the bodies of Arakawa and Hackman were found on Feb. 26 after both had been long dead. Before then, it appears Arakawa's Google history noted "multiple searches related to flu and COVID symptoms" beginning on Feb. 8.
Two days later, Arakawa searched "flu and nosebleeds" as well as "COVID nosebleeds and finally, "Can COVID cause dizziness?" On Feb. 11, Arawaka sent to an email to massage therapist Katia Van Horn indicating that Hackman had taken a "covid test" due to "flu/cold-like symptoms" but that the test was negative.
"But out of an abundance of caution, I should cancel my appt tomorrow and rebook, say, in a couple weeks, last week of Feb if something is available." Then, on the morning of Feb. 12, her searches included the prompts "How long do the effects of hyperbaric oxygen therapy last" and "Cloudberry Health Santa Fe, New Mexico."
Those would be her final searches. "This data suggests that Betsy was actively researching medical conditions related to COVID-19 and flu-like symptoms in the days leading up to her death," a report from investigators stated.
Police would find their bodies nearly mummified, with Arakawa's German shepherd dog still standing guard near her body. Pace maker records indicate Hackman lived for about a week in the house with her body before succumbing to heart disease and Alzheimer's.
The condition of the couple's home has become fodder for the media, including Page Six. "Gene Hackman and Betsy Arakawa’s cluttered, rat-infested home revealed in shocking new photos," the media outlet captioned a post to X, formerly Twitter, on Monday.

Hackman's estate had been trying to keep the investigator's photos and police body camera footage out of the media. Now that it has been released, it's part of the late actor's legacy.
The home was certainly cluttered and infested with rodents, which likely contributed to Arakawa's death from a rodent-borne illness. However, it should be noted that the main house was not infested and that Hackman needed constant care, with his wife the only person around to do so.
This is a tragic story with many sad angles. Hackman was a prolific actor, but age and illness caught up with him as it does for everyone. By all accounts, this was a horrible end for a man so beloved by audiences.
First lady Melania Trump chose not to attend a baby shower in honor of stepdaughter Tiffany Trump's first child, the Daily Beast reported. Sources say that she opted to spend the weekend with Barron Trump, the son she shares with Tiffany Trump's father, President Donald Trump.
Friends and family of Tiffany Trump gathered in Palm Beach on April 6 to celebrate the mother-to-be. Several members of the Trump clan were in attendance, including Tiffany Trump's mother, Marla Maples.
"A beautiful day celebrating my daughter Tiffany’s 1st baby shower surrounded by love, family, and dear friends. Thank you, Ivanka, for hosting such a stunning and heartfelt gathering—a memory we’ll cherish forever," Maples, who was Donald Trump's second wife, captioned a photo of her with her 31-year-old daughter on Instagram Thursday.

Noticeably absent from the festivities was Melania Trump, who is Donald Trump's third wife. A source claiming to be close to the family said this was because the first lady was spending time with her son Barron Trump while he concludes his second semester of his freshman year at New York University.
The source claimed this choice isn't "surprising" for the First Lady, who felt there wasn't "any reason" to show up at the baby shower. Moreover, Melania Trump "has her own schedule, even on weekends" which precluded her from attending the event.
Ivanka Trump, who is the child of Donald Trump's first wife Ivana Trump, hosted the Peter Rabbit-themed soiree, the UK Daily Mail reported. The Trump children from the different marriages seem to get along even if their parents' marriages didn't work out.
According to People, Donald and Ivana Trump were married for over a decade before their 1990 divorce. They had three children together: Donald Trump Jr., Eric Trump, and Ivanka Trump. Their split was rumored to be because of an extramarital affair Donald Trump was having with Maples.
In 1993, Donald Trump took Maples as his second wife shortly after Tiffany Trump was born. Their marriage lasted until 1997, and Donald Trump would go on to wed Melania Trump in 2005 before welcoming Barron to the family in 2006.
The life of a first lady is not easy, and being a step-parent is a challenge, even under the best of circumstances. Still, the internet had no grace for Melania Trump's decision to stay away from Tiffany Trump's big day.
"Would you really want the woman your dad cheated on your mom with to come to your baby shower?" one user sniped under the Daily Beast's post of the article on Friday to X, formerly Twitter. Of course, this is entirely incorrect, but it is indicative of the kind of venom directed at the First Lady.
Another user compared Melania Trump's absence to Michelle Obama's decision not to attend Jimmy Carter's funeral with her husband, Barack Obama, earlier this year. "But when a former FLOTUS (Michelle) misses a funeral, suddenly everyone thinks they’re getting divorced," the user noted.
There have been several rumors about both couples, including a September 2024 report that the Trumps were getting divorced. According to Reuters, this was patently false and based on a fake Newsweek report circulated online.
Family dynamics are never easy, but the Trumps are arguably the most powerful family in the world. This makes news outlets and internet dwellers believe that a guest list at a baby shower is their business, even when it's not.
Kyren Lacy, a 24-year-old former Louisiana State University wide receiver and NFL prospect, died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound on Saturday in Texas following a police chase, the Harris County Sheriff’s Office reported.
The Constable’s Office responded to a phone call from a female relative of Lacy who reported getting into an argument with him that ended with him shooting a gun into the ground.
Lacy fled the scene of the argument before police arrived, but they spotted him later in his vehicle and attempted to make a "traffic stop."
A police chase ensued for several miles until Lacy's car crashed in a residential area.
When police tried to take him into custody, they found him deceased due to the gunshot wound. “A handgun was recovered from the interior of the vehicle,” the authorities said.
Body cam and dash cam footage showed that no shots were fired after the pursuit ended.
Lacy was facing trial for a fatal hit-and-run of a 78-year-old man in December. Police accused him of negligent homicide, felony hit-and-run with death, and reckless operation of a vehicle.
A hearing to begin presenting evidence to a grand jury was set to happen on Monday, and this could have been weighing on his mind as the police chased him.
The accident would likely have put a damper on his NFL plans. He declared for the draft two days after the hit and run on December 19.
Lacy was ranked as high as the number 6 receiver prospect in the draft by ESPN’s Mel Kiper Jr. in December when he graduated from LSU after three seasons there.
His future held a lot of uncertainty, but he wouldn't be the first NFL player to have committed serious crimes and still been given the chance to play football.
More than likely, he would have been drafted in some capacity and played in the NFL if he could avoid jail for the hit and run.
Now he will never get that chance, having made the extraordinarily bad decision to flee police and possibly shoot himself (though that could have been accidental, caused by the chase).
Whatever happened, his life was cut short in its prime, likely due to the distress of facing yet another altercation on top of the trouble he was already likely to have over the hit and run.
The topic of UFOs has long captured the imagination of millions, and recent hearings at the federal level have only intensified that interest.
As Fox News reports, a declassified document that was posted on the CIA's website has only heightened curiosity, as it contains details about an alleged attack sometime between 1989 and 1990 on Soviet troops by entities characterized as “aliens.”
According to the document, which is a summary of a piece published in Ukrainian outlet Holos Ukrayiny as well as in the Canadian Weekly World News, an otherworldly retaliatory attack launched by aliens took place after Soviet troops were said to have shot down a UFO.
The file posted to the website indicates that “U.S. Intelligence obtained a 250-page file on the attack by a UFO on a military unit in Siberia,” a report that “contains not only many documentary photographs and drawings, but also testimonies by actual participants in the events.”
As detailed in the summary, “According to the KGB materials, a quite low-flying spaceship in the shape of a saucer appeared above a military unit that was conducting routine training maneuvers. For unknown reasons, somebody unexpectedly launched a surface-to-air missile and hit the UFO.”
From there, things got weird, with the summary adding that the UFO “fell to earth not far away, and five short humanoids with 'large heads and large black eyes' emerged from it.”
Two of the soldiers at the site were said to have testified that “after freeing themselves from the debris, the aliens came close together and then 'merged into a single object that acquired a spherical shape,'” which in turn “began to buzz and hiss sharply, and then became brilliantly white.”
Even more incredible is what the report says happened next, noting that “In a few seconds, the spheres grew much bigger and exploded by flaring up with an extremely bright light.”
It went on, “At that very instant, 23 soldiers who had watched the phenomenon turned into...stone poles.”
“Only two soldiers who stood in the shade and were less exposed to the luminous explosion survived,” the account explained.
The KGB's report further noted that the UFO's remains and those of the allegedly “petrified soldiers” were subsequently sent to a research institute near Moscow for further assessment.
Remarking on the contents of the memo was former CIA Mike Baker who expressed skepticism about its veracity, noting, “If there was an incident, regardless of the nature of the incident, I suspect that the actual report doesn't look much like what has now come out from five or six or seven iterations of what originally was [written].”
The buzz about this particular document comes amid a wave of heightened interest in governmental knowledge of UFOs and similar phenomena, as evidenced by a House Oversight Committee hearing held back in November, entitled, “Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena: Exposing the Truth.”
Though that hearing did not yield any blockbuster information, witnesses and lawmakers alike emphasized the need for greater governmental transparency in sharing data about curious incidents with seemingly nebulous origins and also in safeguarding those who come forth to share their personal experiences with them.
First lady Melania Trump was not present at a baby shower thrown in honor of her stepdaughter, Tiffany Trump, People reported. President Donald Trump and Melania Trump began dating when the youngest Trump daughter was only 5 years old.
The president and first lady were nearby in Palm Beach, where the baby shower was being held on Sunday, April 6. Donald Trump was in Miami and at his Mar-a-Lago residence and golf club in Palm Beach for the LIV Golf fundraiser tournament that weekend.
Neither attended Tiffany Trump's event, but it would be unexpected for the president since the baby shower was primarily a women-only event. A source close to the matter said that it wasn't "surprising" for Melania Trump not to be there.
The source said Melania Trump believed there wasn't "any reason" for her to attend but added that she "has her own schedule, even on weekends." The source said that Melania Trump was busy with her son, 19-year-old Barron Trump, over the weekend.
According to The Hill, Ivanka Trump, Tiffany Trump's older stepsister, hosted the soiree to celebrate the impending birth of her baby boy. The theme was Peter Rabbit as 31-year-old Tiffany Trump and her husband, 27-year-old Michael Boulos, eagerly await the arrival of their first child.
Tiffany Trump is the daughter of Donald Trump and Marla Maples, but it's clear that she's close to her stepsister. On Tuesday, Ivanka Trump posted about the baby shower on X, formerly Twitter.
"Every detail was inspired by Beatrix Potter’s world — from bunny tails to garden treats — to celebrate the little boy she’s about to welcome into her life. It was the sweetest day — filled with so much love, laughter, and excitement for everything ahead," Ivanka Trump wrote.
"Tiff, you’re going to be the most wonderful mama. Your baby boy is already so loved — and so lucky to have you! Love you!" she added.
This Sunday, I had so much fun hosting a Peter Rabbit-themed baby shower for my sweet sister Tiffany! We showered her with love and had the best time celebrating her and baby-to-be!

In a report from E! News, the parents-to-be were spotted on a dinner date the night before the baby shower. Although they didn't make a public appearance with the president and first lady, it's quite possible they met up with them sometime over the weekend.
While the leftist media attempted to make something of Melania Trump's absence, the Trump family is stronger than ever. In fact, it was her father, who was a presidential candidate at the time, who let the cat out of the bag in October.
Donald Trump was speaking about the people attending his campaign stop when he pointed out Michael Boulos' father, Massad Boulos. "He happens to be the father of Tiffany’s husband, Michael, who’s a very exceptional young guy," Donald Trump said.
"And she’s an exceptional young woman. And she’s going to have a baby. So that’s nice," he added. Tiffany Trump later confirmed that she was pregnant in a post on Instagram in December.
The Trump family is constantly under scrutiny by journalists who don't care for the president. The birth of a new grandchild is surely a happy time for the first couple whether Melania Trump celebrates it publicly or not.
Boston City Councilor Tania Fernandes Anderson, who was arrested for federal public corruption last year, has accepted a plea deal, the UK Daily Mail reported. The Democratic politician known for her brashness gave interviews only to two favorable news outlets to announce her resignation.
Fernandes Anderson was implicated in a "complicated kickback scheme" that netted her some $7,000. She funneled a $13,000 inflated bonus from city funds to a relative who works as a staff member for her.
Prosecutors say Fernandes Anderson took the majority of that bonus. She has agreed to plead guilty to one count of theft concerning a program receiving federal funds and another count of wire fraud.
By accepting the deal, Fernandes Anderson avoided four additional charges of wire fraud that each carried a possible 20 years in prison and up to $250,000 in fines. This puts an end to a fraught stint in government, which began in 2021 when she was elected as the first Muslim and African immigrant to serve on the city council.
At first, Fernandes Anderson refused to resign after she was arrested for the scheme in December 2024 and wouldn't speak to the media except those who were gentle with her. This week, she told Boston Magazine in an exclusive that she would be stepping down.
The news outlet did not disappoint in glowing coverage of the politician accused of corruption. It ran a piece, "The Rise and Fall of Boston City Councilor Tania Fernandes Anderson," published on Wednesday that attempted to spin her legal woes in the most favorably.
"From raising her siblings to serving her district to handing out city jobs to loved ones, the city's first African immigrant councilor built her life around helping others at any cost. And that, it turned out, was precisely the problem," the subheading explained.
Meanwhile, Fernandes Anderson also spoke to NBC10 for more gentle treatment. "I'm not just a mom to two boys, as you know, I have actually four sons, with my stepsons. I'm soon to be a grandma," Fernandes Anderson told the news outlet.
"How do I do the right thing to ensure that my family is safe, is stable?" Fernandes Anderson added. This was the same news outlet she let exclusively follow her into her government office after her arrest.
Regardless of the type of media coverage she receives, the Boston Globe reported that her constituents are not happy with Fernandes Anderson's antics. For 59-year-old Carmen Thomas-Jones, the arrest was an eye-opening experience.
“You’re here to serve the people, not serve your purpose. To get a kickback from somebody? No, that’s not how we do things, and it’s a bad representation of the Black community. ... I’m very appalled at her behavior," Thomas-Jones said.
Another Bostonian, 56-year-old Marijke Simmons, was "disappointed" in Fernandes Anderson. "I don’t like thieves, period. That’s what it comes down to. ... [I’m] very disappointed," Simmons said.
Her alleged crimes were by no means the first time Fernandes Anderson embarrassed her constituents. A 2022 obscenity-laced race-baiting rant went viral on social media when she said during official proceedings, "What the f--- do I have to do in this f---ing council in order to get respect as a Black woman?"
Fernandes Anderson has the presumption of innocence under American law, including for this alleged corruption. However, the accusations are serious and would undermine her integrity if they prove to be true, and Bostonians won't be pleased.
World Series champion pitcher Octavio Dotel perished after the roof caved in at a Dominican Republic nightclub Tuesday, the Associated Press reported. The freak tragedy took the lives of at least 200 people, including the 51-year-old ex-Major League Baseball player.
Dotel's career spanned more than 15 years and brought him many accolades. This week, the news from the Dominican Republic has instead brought condolences.
Tony Clark, MLB Association executive director, said in a statement that the players' union was with the Dominican community "amid incomprehensible sadness." Clark also extended condolences for other victims, including Tony Blanco, who played for the Washington Nationals, and former MLB player Nelson Cruz, whose sister Nelsy was also at the nightclub that evening, ABC News reported.
"We grieve for all the victims and send a special message of support to the families of Octavio Dotel and Tony Blanco, who leave an unspeakable void with their passing, and to Nelson Cruz, whose family lost a shining light with the death of his sister, Nelsy," Clark added. The MLB community mourned its losses as the death toll continued to rise.
During his storied career, Dotel passed through many MLB franchises and helped propel them to victory along the way. In a post to X, formerly Twitter, on Tuesday, the MLB summed up the highlights of his time in the league.
"We are shocked and saddened by the sudden and tragic death of former Major League pitcher Octavio Dotel. Dotel appeared in 758 games for 13 teams over his 15-year career, including parts of five seasons with the Houston Astros from 2000-2004," the post noted.
"On June 11, 2003, he was one of six Astros pitchers who combined to throw a no-hitter against the Yankees in New York. Dotel helped the St. Louis Cardinals to the 2011 World Series championship, going 2-1 with a 2.61 ERA in 12 appearances in the Postseason run," it went on.
"He saved 109 games, with a career-high 36 in 2004. Dotel’s 13 teams are tied with Rich Hill for the 2nd-most in MLB history, trailing only Edwin Jackson’s 14. Dotel was 51 years old," MLB concluded.
We are shocked and saddened by the sudden and tragic death of former Major League pitcher Octavio Dotel.

The tragedy is marked by unspeakable carnage and loss of life among patrons at the Jet Set nightclub located in the capital city of Santo Domingo. Just after 12:34 a.m., the roof unexpectedly caved in and revelers became trapped after concrete rained down on them.
The collapse only took seconds but killed hundreds and injured another 155 people. There's no word on what the cause was though a 2023 fire damaged part of the building. Crews continue to work to free trapped individuals and recover bodies.
Authorities are using biometric systems to identify the dead as the nation grapples with this tragedy. "We deeply regret the tragedy that occurred at the Jet Set nightclub," a social media post from Dominican Republic President Luis Abinader said.
"We have been following the incident minute by minute since it occurred. All relief agencies have provided the necessary assistance and are working tirelessly in the rescue efforts. Our prayers are with the affected families," Abinader added.
These people were out to have a nice time at a nightclub when the unthinkable happened. Whether it was the MLB players, musicians, or guests, every life lost in this way is unfathomably tragic.
A new book pulled back the curtain on former President Joe Biden's mental decline that led Democrats to lose the 2024 presidential election, Fox News reported. In one excerpt, ABC News host George Stephanopoulos recounted how it was "heartbreaking up close" to interview the then-president after his disastrous campaign-ending debate.
The book, "Uncharted: How Trump Beat Biden, Harris, and the Odds in the Wildest Campaign in History" by Chris Whipple, was released this week. It paints a picture of the Democratic Party's frenzied maneuvering to try to hide how poor Biden's mental acuity was.
Biden's June 27 debate performance against then-candidate Donald Trump made it impossible to continue on as if nothing happened. The author noted that Stephanopoulos was given the task of interviewing Biden on This Week on July 5, which all but sealed the deal for him.
Whipple recounted that the interview with Stephanopoulos was meant to "staunch the bleeding" of Democrats who wanted Biden out. The author noted that Biden was "hoarse and semi-coherent" throughout the interview, which bothered the host.
Rather than smoothing things over, the appearance cemented the notion that Biden was finished. "Stephanopoulos questioned the president gently, like a grandson," Whipple noted.
"Afterward, when I asked the ABC anchor by email for his impressions, he replied: ‘Heartbreaking up close,'" Whipple wrote. Stephanopoulos would later say when asked about it that he didn't think Biden could "serve four more years."
This was after Biden tried to assert his competence during the softball sitdown with Stephanopoulos. "Look, I have a cognitive test every single day," Biden told the host.
"Every day, I’ve had tests. Everything I do. You know, not only am I campaigning, I’m running the world. And that’s not — it sounds like hyperbole, but we are the central nation of the world."
Biden insisted that he was in top campaign shape, but Whipple said the truth behind the scenes was far different. "He was absolutely exhausted," Whipple wrote, according to NPR.
"He was unable really to follow what was happening in the campaign. He was tuned out. Early on, he walked out of a [debate preparation] session in the Aspen Lodge, the president's cabin, went over to the pool, sank into a lounge chair, and just fell sound asleep," Whipple wrote.
It was less than a month before he would turn his campaign over to then-Vice President Kamala Harris, who lost the White House in a crushing defeat. Whipple blames those around Biden for not getting him out sooner.
"I think that it's unquestionable that there was just an abdication of leadership starting within that inner circle. The inability of any of those [staffers] to sit the president down and say, 'Look, you need to look at this clear eyed and realize that you're going to be 86 years old and you're not up to this and everybody knows it.' That never happened," Whipple wrote.
It was crystal clear that Biden was suffering from cognitive impairment, but his campaign tried to cover it up. In the end, they couldn't even fool their allies in the leftist media, let alone the voting public.
Tiffany Trump, youngest daughter of President Donald Trump, revealed that she is having a baby boy, the UK Daily Mail reported. The 31-year-old expectant mother was honored Sunday with a baby shower hosted by her older sister, Ivanka Trump.
Tiffany Trump stunned in her elegant baby blue empire waist dress, which showed off her bump, at the Palm Beach celebration. In a post to Instagram, she shared that it was "one month" until the birth of the first child for her and her 27-year-old husband, Michael Boulos.
Donald Trump, then-presidential candidate, announced Tiffany Trump's pregnancy in October while recognizing her father-in-law, Massad Boulos, during a speech at the Detroit Economic Club. "He happens to be the father of Tiffany's husband, Michael, who's a very exceptional young guy," Donald Trump said.
"And she's an exceptional young woman. And she's going to have a baby. So that's nice," he added.
Ivanka Trump organized a beautiful baby shower for her sister and posted about the special day on X, formerly Twitter, on Tuesday. "This Sunday, I had so much fun hosting a Peter Rabbit-themed baby shower for my sweet sister Tiffany!" Ivanka Trump wrote.
"We showered her with love and had the best time celebrating her and baby-to-be! Every detail was inspired by Beatrix Potter’s world — from bunny tails to garden treats — to celebrate the little boy she’s about to welcome into her life," she added of the Peter Rabbit theme.
"It was the sweetest day — filled with so much love, laughter, and excitement for everything ahead. Tiff, you’re going to be the most wonderful mama," Ivanka Trump wrote to her sister in the post.
"Your baby boy is already so loved — and so lucky to have you! Love you," Ivanka Trump concluded. The post included photos of the sisters with Lara Trump, who is married to their brother Eric Trump, along with themed delicacies from the party.

Donald Trump is eager to meet his newest grandson, who will be grandchild number 11 for the 78-year 0ld president, Today reported. His eldest son, Donald Trump Jr., accounts for five of them.
The president's namesake and his then-wife Vanessa Haydon share Kai, Donald III, Tristan, Spencer and Chloe. Kai is a wonderful golfer like her grandfather and plays for the University of Miami. "I would like to thank my Grandpa for giving me access to great courses and tremendous support," Kai said when she first announced her commitment.
So far she is the most politically active Trump grandchild and spoke at the 2024 Republican National Convention. "I’m speaking today to share the side of my grandpa that people don’t often see. To me, he’s just a normal grandpa," she added.
The president has three more grandchildren, Arabella, Joseph, and Theodore, from Ivanka Trump and her husband, Jared Kushner. Finally, Donald Trump's son and daughter-in-law, Eric and Lara Trump, share children, Eric and Carolina.
The Trump family is a tight-knit bunch who clearly love and care for each other. Donald Trump is a blessed man to have nearly a dozen grandchildren, and the gender reveal was indeed a beautiful surprise for him.
