Construction began yesterday on U.S. President Donald Trump's White House ballroom. Who's paying for it? The only confirmed donor is YouTube, but other names in the mix include Blackstone, OpenAI, Microsoft, Palantir, Lockheed Martin and Amazon. @BBCNews talked to Richard Painter, chief ethics lawyer in the Bush White House, about why he's concerned about this.

U.S. President Donald Trump wants to double the size of the ICE workforce, but there's a problem with that. More than one-third of new applicants has failed the agency's personal fitness test, which comprises 15 push-ups, 32 sit-ups and a 1.5-mile run in 14 minutes. An email from ICE headquarters to top officials described the new wave of candidates as "athletically allergic." Here's more from @TheAtlantic.
