Tens of thousands protest in Minneapolis over fatal ICE shooting, and the city is feeling the weight of it all. It’s like the air itself is charged with tension, a palpable sense of unease hangs over the streets. The situation has escalated, people are being snatched and detained simply for lacking the right paperwork. The very fabric of community is under siege, as families and educators are forced to navigate the disruption ICE’s actions have caused, with schools even switching to remote learning to protect children.

The National Portrait Gallery removed references to Donald Trump’s two impeachments from his portrait’s description after pressure from the White House. The gallery replaced an image and accompanying text detailing the impeachments with a simpler display of his dates in office. This change aligns with the Trump administration’s broader efforts to purge “woke” ideology from cultural institutions, as evidenced by previous complaints and attempts to influence the Smithsonian. While other presidential portraits retain more detailed descriptions, this move raises questions about the gallery’s commitment to historical accuracy and objectivity.

Following the shooting death of Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis, questions have been raised about the training of ICE agents. Training for new ICE recruits was reportedly cut in half, from five months to 47 days, a length of time allegedly chosen to reflect the tenure of Donald Trump as the 47th U.S. President. While a DHS official stated that training is eight weeks long, the agency maintains that no essential subject matter has been omitted. The official went on to state that ICE is building a rigorous on-the-job training program and that senior officials mentor, coach and train agents.

In December 2024, Randall Gamboa Esquivel, a Costa Rican man, was detained by US authorities after crossing the border and was held at detention centers in Texas. After nearly 10 months, in September 2025, he was deported to Costa Rica in a vegetative state and died shortly after. Medical records show Gamboa was hospitalized with “altered mental status” and a series of other conditions, including sepsis and rhabdomyolysis, while in custody. Gamboa’s family is now seeking answers about his health deterioration while under US Immigration and Custom Enforcement (ICE) custody, as well as the cause of his death, as they question why he was not given proper care.

After 25 days in ICE custody, Dulce Consuelo Díaz Morales, a Maryland woman, has been released and reunited with her family despite claims from her attorneys that she is a US citizen. ICE had disputed these claims, asserting she is a Mexican citizen who entered the US unlawfully. The legal team maintains she was born in the US and provided supporting documentation, though the government has not dismissed the case. While the government claims she is an illegal alien, Díaz Morales holds dual citizenship with Mexico and is applying for a US passport, as she prepares to check-in with immigration officials alongside her legal team.

A Dallas TikTok user was terminated from her job at the Hilton Anatole after posting a viral video alleging the presence of ICE agents at the hotel. The user, identified only as Gia, expressed concerns about potential family separations and detentions, while also sharing video footage of unmarked cars leaving the hotel. Following the posting of her video, Gia was fired by Towne Park, the hotel’s third-party valet company, after refusing to remove the content. This event has generated both controversy and calls for boycotts, mirroring a similar incident where a Minnesota hotel lost its Hilton affiliation for allegedly refusing to accommodate ICE.

Recent reports have shown law enforcement officers wearing uniforms simply labeled “DHS Police,” despite no single agency by that name existing. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) encompasses approximately 80,000 officers across nine different agencies, with varying areas of enforcement. This concentrated power within DHS raises concerns about potential misuse and corruption, which has been evident in recent events. The broad designation may obscure the specific agency the officers belong to, while granting the department a vast amount of coercive authority.

The US is experiencing a radical counter-revolution, a stark contrast to the ideals of Thomas Paine’s Common Sense, which celebrated American liberty. The Trump administration has openly defied democratic norms, quickly enacting policies that undermine individual rights and international law. This swift transformation has caught opponents off guard. Paine’s vision of America as a haven for freedom is now being subverted as the country is perceived as a model to be avoided, entering a new era of unreason and violence.

Following the death of Renee Good at the hands of a federal immigration officer, progressive lawmakers are urging Democrats to leverage the upcoming government funding deadline to reduce funding for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), including ICE. Despite the public outrage and calls for action, Democratic leaders such as Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries have shown little interest in using the appropriations process to rein in these agencies. While they have criticized the killing and the agency’s actions, they have not committed to slashing the homeland security budget. This inaction has drawn criticism from within the party, with some calling for a more aggressive stance to oppose what they see as illegal and immoral actions by the opposition.
