President Trump says the framework of a long-term deal on Greenland is in place. Shortly after announcing the deal framework in a post on Truth Social, Trump told reporters the deal gives the U.S. everything it needs. He went on to call it an "infinite deal" that would last "forever."        Subzero conditions are bringing the chill to the eastern third of the country this week. Strong gusty winds will lead to dangerous wind chills, prompting extreme cold warnings and watches for the northern Plains and the Upper Midwest. More severe weather will be on the way as a major winter storm is expected to impact a huge area from Texas to the East Coast from Friday through the weekend.        ICE's latest operation is underway in Maine this week. According to Fox News, authorities arrested more than 50 people on Tuesday and more arrests were taking place on Wednesday. ICE Deputy Assistant Director Patricia Hyde said there are "approximately 14-hundred targets" in Maine, and it comes as part of the Trump administration's broader crackdown against illegal immigrants.        Jury deliberations are underway in the first trial connected to the slow police response to the mass shooting at an elementary school in Uvalde, Texas. Former Uvalde school officer Adrian Gonzales is accused of failing to engage the gunman after arriving at Robb Elementary School during the massacre on May 24th, 2022. Nineteen children and two teachers were killed.        Wall Street is closing with stocks in the green. It comes after stocks saw a major surge after President Trump announced a "framework" has been agreed to related to the U.S. and Greenland. At the closing bell, the Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 588 points to 49-077. The S&P 500 climbed 78 points to 68-75. The Nasdaq jumped 270 points to 23-224.        The sci-fi thriller "Mercy" is looking to dethrone "Avatar: Fire & Ash" from first place at the box office this weekend. The film starring Chris Pratt is looking to make ten to 13-million-dollars in its debut. That should be enough to take the top spot from "Fire & Ash," which is projected to bring in eight to ten million in its sixth outing.
