The trailer shows Todd, wearing a "45-47" hat in honor of the two-term president, telling wife Julie: "I never thought I'd be with a dark-headed woman, but I'm willing to try it tonight." Julie, known for her voluminous, shoulder-length blonde 'dos, is sporting natural brown locks with grown-out gray hair toward her roots in the footage of the couple reuniting with their family. Family members from 27-year-old daughterSavannahto sons Chase, 29, and Grayson, 19, give their input throughout the upcoming series as they give talking head interviews about their family's dynamic during their parents' imprisonment. Grandparents "Nanny" Faye Chrisley, as well as Harvey and Pam Hughes, also make appearances alongside Todd's granddaughter Chloe, whom he and Julie adopted in 2016.

Jessica Biel Reveals What Food Is Completely Off Limits in Her House (Exclusive)New Foto - Jessica Biel Reveals What Food Is Completely Off Limits in Her House (Exclusive)

Jessica Biel Reveals What Food Is Completely Off Limits in Her House (Exclusive)originally appeared onParade. Jessica Bielis getting candid about the one rule she has about a certain food in her household. TheBetter Sisterstar, 43, revealed what kind of cuisine is completely off limits for her andJustin Timberlake's two sons in an exclusive interview withParadewhile promoting her health and wellness company,KinderFarms. 🎬SIGN UP for Parade's Daily newsletter to get the latest pop culture news & celebrity interviews delivered right to your inbox🎬 "McDonald's!" she says. "I'm like, 'Sorry, guys, I'm not doing it.' They don't get McDonald's. I just feel like I don't know what's going on with [the] quality of that food. It's stuff like that that I'm like, 'No, we're not.' Let's go have a great burger and fries at a fancy place. I'd rather pay more for you to have something fancy than something like that." She adds: "I guess I'm not crazy, rigid and strict, but that would be something that, if they asked me for, I would just be like, 'Next! Next place. Next down the line!'" The7th Heavenalumgoes on to tellParadethat she not only is cautious of what's in the food her family eats, but also the medicine and supplements they take — which is part of the reason she co-founded KinderFarms withJeremy Adams. The wellness company offers cough, cold, pain and fever medicines, as well as electrolyte solutions and supplements, that work without unnecessary fillers or artificial additives. "I just really believe in the products, and I really trust what's in them," she explains. "And for me, I want to help my immune system the best I possibly can. And I don't want to put a bunch of junk in there. I don't want to put stuff in that I cannot pronounce. That's my new rule: I don't know what this crazy word is. I am not [putting] this word in my body or my kid's body, you know?" As for what's next for KinderFarms, CEOKristin Recchiuti, who joined Biel forParade's exclusive interview, says the company will "keep chipping away as it relates to new products and launches." She adds: "But our focus is really about transparency and educating consumers that there are other options."

ICE efforts to poach local officers anger some local law enforcement leadersNew Foto - ICE efforts to poach local officers anger some local law enforcement leaders

Immigration and Customs Enforcement is newly flush with billions from the "One Big Beautiful Bill" spending legislation and under pressure to rapidly hire 10,000 new agents. But one tactic it recently tried to do that hiring — aggressively recruiting new agents from some of its most trusted local law enforcement partners — may have alienated some of the leaders it needs to help execute what the Trump administration wants to be the largest mass deportation in U.S. history. "We're their force multipliers, and this is the thanks we get for helping them do their job?" Polk County, Florida, Sheriff Grady Judd said in an interview. Judd said he's not happy about a recruitment email ICE's deputy director sent to hundreds of his deputies, and he blamed Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, who oversees ICE. "Kristi Noem needs to get on her big girl pants and do what's right. She needs to make sure that there's an apology," said Judd, who also made it clear that he wants to "support President Trump's mission." NBC News spoke to local law enforcement leaders in four states whose agencies participate in ICE's 287(g) program, under which local officers are deputized to help in immigration enforcement, and whose deputies ICE targeted for recruitment. The recruitment email, sent this week, appears to have targeted law enforcement officers whose agencies participate in the 287(g) program. The email, which NBC News has obtained, reads, in part: "As someone who is currently supporting ICE through the 287(g) program, you understand the unique responsibility we carry in protecting our communities and upholding federal law. Your experience in state or local law enforcement brings invaluable insight and skills to this mission —qualities we need now more than ever." The email also touts potential $50,000 signing bonuses as an incentive for joining ICE, and it links toa government recruitment websitefeaturing an image of Uncle Sam, the headline "AMERICA NEEDS YOU" and the possibility of up to $60,000 in student loan repayment beyond the signing bonuses. "ICE actively trying to use our partnership to recruit our personnel is wrong and we have expressed our concern to ICE leadership," the Pinellas County, Florida, Sheriff's Office said in a statement. The sheriff in Pinellas County is a Republican, as is Judd. "It was bad judgment that will cause an erosion of a relationship that has been improving of late. And it's going to take some getting over, and it's going to take leadership at DHS to really take stock, 'cause, hey, they need state and locals," Jonathan Thompson, the executive director and CEO of the National Sheriffs' Association, said in an interview. Thompson said the association has heard from more than a dozen law enforcement agencies about the recruitment emails. He also said that the group has not heard from DHS since the emails were flagged to the association and that he intends to send a "very stern note" to ICE. "This is inappropriate behavior of a partner organization," Thompson said. "We're all on the same boat. And you just don't treat friends or partners like this." One Florida police chief who did not want to be named out of concern that his department could face retaliation said departments that have partnered with the federal government now fear they could lose their best officers. "Now you know why everybody's so pissed," the chief said. "This is like the transfer portal in college sports," the chief said, adding: "We see people leave us because they believe they can make more money at other locations. ... Law enforcement has always been a calling. Now it's a job." The DHS media office did not respond to questions about local law enforcement concerns but provided NBC News with a statement that it attributed to a senior DHS official: "ICE is recruiting law enforcement, veterans, and other patriots who want to serve their country. ... This includes local law enforcement, veterans, and our 287(g) partners who have already been trained and have valuable law enforcement experience. Additionally, more than $500 million from President Trump's One Big Beautiful Bill will go to increasing our 287(g) partnerships with state and local law enforcement." The sheriff's office in Forsyth County, Georgia, told NBC News that the Atlanta ICE office "sent an apology" for the recruitment email. Not all sheriffs are upset with the recruitment effort. In fact, some say they support it. Thaddeus Cleveland, the sheriff of Terrell County, Texas, said, "I think if someone wants to better their life, better their career, you know, look towards the long years, the long game, retirement, there's nothing better than the U.S. government to go out and have a successful career." Cleveland, who has just four deputies, admits he cannot compete with the $50,000 bonuses the agency is offering. "We may not be able to turn around and hire somebody the next day. It may take a few weeks. It may take a few months. But again, I support, you know, someone wanting to pursue something they're interested in. I may end up having to work a little more, which is OK." Goliad County, Texas, Sheriff Roy Boyd also said he is not upset about the recruitment and noted that his office also has to deal with the state's recruiting new troopers from his department. "We can't compete with the salaries of the state and the feds," he said.

Judge blocks Trump administration from ending protections for 60,000 from Central America and NepalNew Foto - Judge blocks Trump administration from ending protections for 60,000 from Central America and Nepal

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — A federal judge ruled on Thursday against the Trump administration's plans and extended Temporary Protected Status for 60,000 people from Central America and Asia, including people from Nepal, Honduras and Nicaragua. Temporary Protected Status is a protection that can be granted by the Homeland Security secretary to people of various nationalities who are in the United States, preventing from being deported and allowing them to work. The Trump administration has aggressively been seeking toremove the protection, thus making more people eligible for removal. It's part ofa wider effort by the administrationto carry out mass deportations ofimmigrants. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem can extend Temporary Protected Status to immigrants in the U.S. if conditions in their homelands are deemed unsafe to return due to a natural disaster, political instability or other dangerous conditions. Noem had ruled to end protections for tens of thousands of Hondurans and Nicaraguansafter determiningthat conditions in their homelands no longer warranted them. The secretary said the two countries had made "significant progress" in recovering from 1998's Hurricane Mitch, one of the deadliest Atlantic storms in history. The designation for an estimated 7,000 from Nepal was scheduled to end Aug. 5 while protections allowing 51,000 Hondurans and nearly 3,000 Nicaraguans who have been in the U.S. for more than 25 years were set to expire Sept. 8. U.S. District Judge Trina L. Thompson in San Francisco did not set an expiration date but rather ruled to keep the protections in place while the case proceeds. The next hearing is Nov. 18. In a sharply written order, Thompson said the administration ended the migrant status protections without an "objective review of the country conditions" such as political violence in Honduras and the impact of recent hurricanes and storms in Nicaragua. If the protections were not extended, immigrants could suffer from loss of employment, health insurance, be separated from their families, and risk being deported to other countries where they have no ties, she wrote, adding that the termination of Temporary Protection Status for people from Nepal, Honduras, and Nicaragua would result in a $1.4 billion loss to the economy. "The freedom to live fearlessly, the opportunity of liberty, and the American dream. That is all Plaintiffs seek. Instead, they are told to atone for their race, leave because of their names, and purify their blood," Thompson said. Lawyers for the National TPS Alliance argued that Noem's decisions were predetermined by PresidentDonald Trump's campaign promises and motivated by racial animus. Thompson agreed, saying that statements Noem and Trump have made perpetuated the "discriminatory belief that certain immigrant populations will replace the white population." "Color is neither a poison nor a crime," she wrote. The advocacy group that filed the lawsuit said designees usually have a year to leave the country, but in this case, they got far less. "They gave them two months to leave the country. It's awful," said Ahilan Arulanantham, an attorney for plaintiffs at a hearing Tuesday. Honduras Deputy Foreign Minister Antonio García told The Associated Press, "The judge recognized the need of the (TPS holders) to be able to work in peace, tranquility and legally." He recalled that during the first Trump administration, there was a similar legal challenge and the fight took five years in the courts. He hoped for a similar outcome this time that would allow the Hondurans to remain in the U.S. "Today's news is hopeful and positive and gives us time and oxygen, hopefully it will be a long road, and the judge will have the final word and not President Trump," he said. Meanwhile in Nicaragua, hundreds of thousands have fled into exile as the government shuttered thousands of nongovernmental organizations and imprisoned political opponents. Nicaragua President Daniel Ortega and his wife and co-President Rosario Murillo have consolidated complete control in Nicaragua since Ortega returned to power two decades ago. In February, a panel of U.N. experts warned the Nicaraguan government had dismantled the last remaining checks and balances and was "systematically executing a strategy to cement total control of the country through severe human rights violations." Thebroad effort by the Republican administration's crackdown on immigration has been going after people who are in the country illegally but also by removing protections that have allowed people to live and work in the U.S. on a temporary basis. The Trump administration has already terminated protections for about 350,000Venezuelans, 500,000 Haitians, more than 160,000 Ukrainians and thousands of people from Afghanistan and Cameroon. Some have pending lawsuits at federal courts. The government argued that Noem has clear authority over the program and that her decisions reflect the administration's objectives in the areas of immigration and foreign policy. "It is not meant to be permanent," Justice Department attorney William Weiland said. ___ Ding reported from Los Angeles. Marlon González contributed from Tegucigalpa, Honduras.
