President Trump says the U.S. is considering the next steps as unrest grows in Iran. Trump was asked yesterday on Air Force One if Iran was crossing a red line, saying that he felt like they were starting to, and that there were "some people killed that aren't supposed to be killed." He went on to say the U.S. is looking into some strong options, and will make a decision, while adding Iranian leaders called him on Saturday wanting to negotiate.        Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem has accused Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey of "inflaming" the public following last week's deadly ICE shooting. Appearing on CNN's "State of the Union," Noem said the two have politicized and inappropriately talked about the situation. Her comments come as protests were held in major cities across the country in response to the fatal shooting, as well as the recent Border Patrol shooting in Portland.        President Trump schedule is starting with a meeting with Secretary of State Marco Rubio. Later in the day he'll meet with Paul Coakley, the Archbishop of Oklahoma City and president of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops. After participating in what the White House calls "signing time," Trump will meet with the CEO of the Tunnels to Towers Foundation, a charity that builds homes for seriously injured veterans and first responders.        President Trump has denied any knowledge of the Justice Department's investigation into the Federal Reserve after the agency subpoenaed the central bank Friday. Trump told NBC News Sunday he didn't know anything about it, but that Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell was not very good at the Fed, and he's not very good at building buildings. Powell said the potential indictment comes from his June Senate testimony concerning renovations to Federal Reserve office buildings.        NASA's International Space Station crew is making an early return to Earth. The administration made the decision after one of the four crew members fell ill. They're reportedly in stable condition.        A new Super Bowl champion will be crowned this season. The 49ers upset the defending champion Eagles 23-19 in the Wild Card round from Philly. Meanwhile, the Bills came-from-behind to beat the Jaguars 27-24 from Jacksonville and advanced for the sixth straight season. The Patriots are back in the Divisional round for the first time since 2018 after silencing the Chargers 16-3 from Foxboro.
