Overview
- Homeland Security chief Kristi Noem announced the deployment of hundreds of additional federal agents to Minneapolis following a weekend of protests.
- The FBI is leading the investigation into the Jan. 7 shooting of Renee Nicole Good, with local officials saying city and state investigators have been sidelined.
- Noem reaffirmed the government’s self-defense account and described the incident as domestic terrorism, while accusing Democrats of encouraging violence against ICE.
- Multiple witness recordings and a cellphone video shot by the ICE agent appear to undercut claims that he faced an immediate threat, intensifying demands for transparency.
- Hundreds of demonstrations under the banner “ICE, out for Good” were held across U.S. cities over the weekend, and most were reported as peaceful.
