Hey, from CNN, I'm Ifeoma Dike with the five things you need to know for Tuesday, January 13th.
President Donald Trump
00:00:10
It's keep protesting, take over your institutions if possible, and save the name of the killers and the abusers that are abusing you.

'President Donald Trump encouraged anti-government protesters in Iran to keep demonstrating, saying help is on its way. A U.S.-based rights group says more than 2,400 protesters have been killed in more than two weeks of demonstrations. CNN cannot independently verify this figure. Close to 17,000 people have been arrested since the unrest began in late December. Trump says he canceled meetings with Iranian officials as a result and ordered Americans in Iran to leave. But says he's heading into a meeting on Iran at the White House. Trump also imposed a 25% tariff on countries that do business with Iran. In an interview with CBS, Trump threatened to take quote, strong action against Iran if the regime hangs detained Iranians. Iran's foreign minister says the country is quote, ready if the U.S. wants to test military action.

More news coming up, including the latest turn in the Minnesota ICE shooting investigation.
Ifeoma Dike
00:01:18
At least six federal prosecutors in Minnesota have resigned. That's after pressure from the Trump administration to investigate Renee Good, the woman who was killed by an ICE agent in Minneapolis last week. She partially blocked agents in the street with her SUV.
Protestors
00:01:33
Ice out! F**k ice! Ice out.

An angry crowd of people threw snowballs at ICE agents leaving one Minneapolis neighborhood this morning. CNN's Ryan Young described the scene as chaotic and saw people blocking ICE agents who tried moving their cars through the crowd.
Ryan Young
00:01:49
They are loud and they are angry. I'm sure when they get in this car, there we go. They're firing the flashbangs again. I knew that was gonna happen. Okay, and now they're using heavier flashbang to disperse the crowd.

Trump defended the agents on social media, as more of them are expected to be deployed there.

Contempt proceedings against Bill Clinton will move forward after he and his wife Hillary fail to appear for a deposition in the House Oversight Committee's Jeffrey Epstein investigation. That's what Republican Chairman James Comer told reporters today. CNN's Annie Grayer is on Capitol Hill.
Annie Grayer
00:02:27
From the letter that the bill and Hillary Clinton sent to Comer directly this morning, they lay out exactly why they are not planning to appear for their depositions. And this is after months of back and forth between the Clinton's legal attorneys and the Oversight Committee, where the Clintons have maintained that these subpoenas are not valid, that they are willing to provide written testimony, and that the committee has even granted this option of written testimony to at least seven of the other witnesses that they've subpoenaed in this investigation, so why not grant them to the Clintons here? Bill Clinton has never been accused of any wrongdoing.

The Supreme Court's conservative justices signaled that they're prepared to support state bans on transgender students playing on girls' sports teams. The justices heard more than three hours of arguments in two cases, brought by two transgender plaintiffs who challenged the state laws. In one notable moment, Chief Justice John Roberts signaled, that he's prepared to undermine a central argument from LGBTQ advocates, suggesting that the logic of a blockbuster 2020 precedent that protects gays and transgender employees from discrimination doesn't apply to sports cases. But some conservative justices also appeared wary of potential slippery slopes, indicating decisions could still be left up to individual states. A decision is expected by the end of June.

'Coming up, the end-of-an-era for one NFL head coach.
Ifeoma Dike
00:03:55
After 19 seasons as head coach of the Pittsburgh Steelers, Mike Tomlin has decided to step down. CNN's Don Riddell is here.
Don Riddell
00:04:04
'Yes, Ifeoma, the Steelers' season ended on Monday night, beaten by the Texans in Pittsburgh, and today Tomlin called it a day, walking away from the job he's had since 2007. And it has been a quite remarkable run. Tomlin never knew a losing season in Pittsburgh. Under his guidance, they won 193 games, they made the playoffs 13 times, and, of course, they've won the Super Bowl. But Monday marked their seventh consecutive playoff defeat. They don't know, changed particularly well in Pittsburgh Since 1969, they've only had three head coaches. By the way, there have been six popes in that time. The Chief Sandy Reid is now the NFL's longest-tenured coach. He's been in Kansas City since 2013.
