• ICE detains exiled Nicaraguan journalist Luis Galeano in Florida — Luis Galeano, a veteran Nicaraguan journalist who fled his country in 2018 after police raids and arrest warrants, was detained by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) while driving for Lyft in Florida on Monday. Galeano has had a pending asylum application for approximately seven years, holds a work permit and social security number, and continues reporting critically on Nicaragua's Sandinista government online. As of Wednesday, he was held at Krome detention center in Miami with an immigration court date scheduled for October 2. His detention has drawn criticism from press freedom organizations and some US lawmakers, who note the contradiction of detaining a journalist persecuted by an authoritarian regime the US government simultaneously condemns.

• State Department cancels visas of parents seeking birthright citizenship for children — A US embassy in North Africa canceled more than 100 visas held by parents accused of traveling to the US primarily so their children would be born American citizens. The action aligns with Trump's separate executive order seeking to restrict birthright citizenship, which is being challenged in court following a Supreme Court setback.
• Secretary of State designates foreign nationals deportable on foreign policy grounds — Secretary of State Marco Rubio determined that a number of foreign nationals are deportable on foreign policy grounds, including a Cuban national linked to an influence campaign tied to Havana, Iranian nationals connected to Tehran's government, and a Kuwaiti national accused of voicing hostility toward the US president. The designations expand grounds for deportation beyond criminal conduct to include alleged foreign ties and political speech.
• State Department cancels 175,000 visas under Trump administration — The US Department of State announced it has revoked more than 175,000 visas since Trump returned to office, quadrupling the pace from Biden's final year. The department cited grounds including alleged visa violations, crimes, calls for violence, fraud, and national security concerns. However, revocations also targeted political speech, including a Turkish doctoral student whose visa was pulled after criticizing her university's Gaza stance, and foreign nationals who commented on a conservative activist's death. The department has not disclosed the categorical breakdown of revocations.
• State Department deports Laotian national despite gubernatorial pardon — Tou Lue Vang, a Laotian national, was deported last month despite having been pardoned weeks earlier by Minnesota Governor Tim Walz for a 2005 conviction for sexually abusing a child. The case illustrates the State Department's disregard for state-level clemency and its assertion of unilateral deportation authority.
• State Department revokes visa of Turkish student for political speech on Gaza — Rümeysa Öztürk, a Turkish doctoral student at Tufts University, had her visa revoked after co-writing an opinion piece criticizing the university's stance on the war in Gaza. She was detained by immigration authorities, though a judge later dismissed the case against her. She has since moved back to Turkey. The case exemplifies the State Department's targeting of political speech as grounds for visa cancellation.
• State Department revokes visas of foreign nationals for comments on activist's death — The State Department canceled the visas of multiple foreign nationals who commented on the killing of conservative activist Charlie Kirk in September 2025, including one who said Kirk had "died too late." The department characterized such speech as incompatible with US national interests and a serious national security concern warranting immediate reconsideration of visa eligibility.
• State Department targets visa applicants based on social media and political views — A March 2025 State Department cable, obtained by the Guardian, ordered consular officers to expand screening of student visa applicants by vetting their social media activity and barring anyone deemed engaged in "terrorist activity"—a category critics interpret as targeting Palestinian-cause supporters. The pattern has continued into 2026, with applicants now required to affirm they have not experienced harm or fear returning home; answering affirmatively or declining to answer sharply increases denial odds, potentially filtering out abuse survivors, threatened journalists, and persecuted minorities.

• Fifteen people charged with conspiracy to impede federal officers over response to Minnesota immigration enforcement — The U.S. Attorney for Minnesota announced charges against 15 people for conspiracy to impede or injure federal officers in response to a controversial immigration enforcement crackdown ("Operation Metro Surge") that killed two civilians. Prosecutors alleged the defendants were part of Minneapolis-based "antifa" groups that coordinated monitoring of ICE agents, set up blockades at federal buildings, and used encrypted communications. Twelve were arrested; one was already in custody; two remain at large. The charges come as the office has dropped 18 of 36 prior cases related to the crackdown.
• U.S. Attorney Daniel Rosen charged fifteen people with conspiracy to impede federal immigration officers — U.S. Attorney for the District of Minnesota Daniel Rosen announced charges against fifteen people with conspiracy to impede or injure federal officers over their behavior during a federal immigration crackdown in Minneapolis the previous year.

At the press conference, prosecutors introduced a Facebook post from one accused person stating "We need to become ungovernable." Rosen stated the people were "charged not for what they said but what they did" but did not answer questions about whether law enforcement officers were injured.

The hearing also addressed concerns about arrest quotas, a $220 million advertising contract awarded to a firm run by Noem's former spokesperson, and inspector general complaints of obstruction.

Officers masked and equipped with military-grade armor and rifles have injured hundreds of people. Courts in at least four states have found that officers used force inappropriately and indiscriminately.

• Federal judge temporarily restricts ICE use of teargas and projectiles against Portland protesters — U.S. District Judge Michael Simon issued a temporary restraining order prohibiting ICE officers from using chemical or projectile munitions against protesters outside the ICE building in Portland, Oregon, unless the targeted person poses an imminent threat of physical harm. The ruling followed a weekend protest on January 31 in which federal agents fired teargas, pepper balls, and rubber bullets at a crowd including children, which local officials described as peaceful. The order also restricts munitions targeting the head, neck, or torso unless deadly force is legally justified. The restraining order remains in effect for 14 days.

• Medical examiner ruled detainee death in ICE custody a homicide — The El Paso County Office of the Medical Examiner ruled that the death of 55-year-old Cuban-born Geraldo Lunas Campos, detained at Camp East Montana in El Paso, Texas, was a homicide. Lunas Campos died of asphyxiation after guards applied pressure to his neck and chest during an altercation in which he requested medication. Two detainees testified they witnessed guards choking Lunas Campos, who repeatedly stated he could not breathe. The Trump administration subsequently attempted to deport the two witnesses. At least 30 people died in ICE detention in the previous year, the highest number in twenty years, with six deaths in the first two weeks of 2026.

• Trump ordered military to prepare invasion plan for Greenland — According to reporting, President Trump ordered special forces commanders (JSOC) to draw up a plan for the invasion of Greenland. The order was reportedly motivated by policy hawks around the president, including Stephen Miller, who were emboldened by the capture of Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro and sought to seize the island before Russia or China could. The Joint Chiefs of Staff resisted the order on grounds that it would be illegal and would not be supported by Congress. Trump was reportedly motivated in part by a desire to distract American voters from poor economic performance before mid-term elections.

• ICE officer Jonathan Ross fatally shoots Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis — Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent Jonathan Ross shot and killed Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis. Vice President J.D. Vance subsequently stated the ICE officer is "protected by absolute immunity" and was "doing his job," implying state prosecutors lack jurisdiction. Legal experts and Minnesota officials disputed Vance's characterization, noting that federal Supremacy Clause immunity is limited and applies only when officers act within lawful federal authority using necessary and proportionate force. Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison and Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty launched a state investigation, asserting the officer does not have "complete immunity."
• ICE agent Jonathan E Ross shoots and kills Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis — On Wednesday, an ICE agent identified as Jonathan E Ross shot and killed Renee Nicole Good, a 37-year-old mother of three, during a confrontation outside an ICE facility in Minneapolis.

• ICE agent fatally shoots Minneapolis resident during immigration enforcement operation — An ICE agent fatally shot Renee Nicole Good, a Minneapolis resident, on or around January 12, 2026, during an immigration enforcement operation.

• FBI assumes sole control of Minneapolis ICE shooting investigation, blocking state access to evidence — Following the shooting death of Renee Nicole Good by ICE agent Jonathan Ross in Minneapolis, the U.S. Attorney's Office reversed course and transferred the investigation solely to the FBI, removing the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension (BCA) from the case and denying state investigators access to evidence, scene materials, and forensic findings. State and local officials, including Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey and Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty, expressed alarm that the federal investigation cannot be fair given prior statements by Trump, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, and Vice President JD Vance prejudging the case and the agent's conduct.
• FBI limits cooperation with local law enforcement in ICE shooting investigation — The FBI has taken the unusual step of restricting cooperation with local Minneapolis law enforcement agencies regarding the investigation into Jonathan E Ross's shooting of Renee Nicole Good. This limitation prevents local authorities from accessing evidence needed to file potential criminal charges against the federal agent, effectively consolidating investigative control within federal authorities and reducing the possibility of independent accountability.
• Senator Smith questions legitimacy of Trump administration investigation — U.S. Senator Tina Smith (D-Minnesota) publicly questioned the legitimacy of the Trump administration's investigation into the ICE shooting, citing the administration's strategy of excluding state investigators and controlling the narrative. She expressed concern that the public would not accept the federal government's version of events, particularly given video evidence contradicting official claims.

The escalation occurred amid widespread protests across the US. Door-to-door raids began Sunday with heavily armed agents; some protesters were hit with chemical spray. Over 2,000 immigration arrests have been made in Minnesota since the operation began in early December.
• Secretary Noem asserts state prosecutors lack jurisdiction in ICE shooting investigation — Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem stated that state-level prosecutors "don't have any jurisdiction in this investigation" of the ICE shooting. This assertion blocked Minnesota state officials from participating in the inquiry, centralizing control of the investigation within the federal government despite local concerns about impartiality.
• FBI excludes Minnesota state investigators from Renee Good shooting investigation — The FBI and Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension (BCA) initially agreed to conduct a joint investigation into Renee Good's death, standard procedure for officer-involved shootings. This agreement was quickly rescinded. The BCA lost "access to the case materials, scene evidence [and] investigative interviews necessary to complete a thorough and independent investigation." The FBI, run by Kash Patel—a Trump partisan who wrote children's books referring to Trump as a "king"—will lead the investigation exclusively. Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison stated the federal government was undermining "a fair, transparent investigation" and that the FBI investigation "will look simply like a whitewash."
• Federal agents removed Renee Good's vehicle before state examination — Federal law enforcement removed Renee Good's vehicle from the crime scene before state investigators could examine it. Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty revealed this removal. Good's car is a key piece of evidence because it could help definitively establish whether ICE agent Ross was struck in any way, making its removal before independent examination a critical loss of evidence integrity.
• Federal law enforcement selectively leaked evidence to partisan outlet — Since asserting control over the investigation, federal law enforcement selectively leaked evidence to ideologically friendly publications. A 47-second video of the incident was shared with Alpha News, a right-wing outlet in Minnesota, before being released by DHS the next day. Vice President Vance amplified the video. This selective leaking to partisan outlets undermines the integrity of the investigation and shapes public narrative through controlled information release.
• DOJ blocks state and local authorities from participating in FBI investigation of ICE shooting — The DOJ blocked state and local authorities from participating in the FBI's investigation into the fatal shooting of Renee Nicole Good by an ICE agent in Minneapolis. Senior federal officials, including the president, had already characterized Good as a domestic terrorist who threatened the ICE officer's life and was shot in self-defense, foreclosing any genuine federal inquiry into the agent's conduct.

Federal investigators report no surveillance or video footage exists of the incident.
• DHS makes unsubstantiated claims of massive increases in assaults and threats against immigration officers — The Department of Homeland Security claimed in a press release that immigration enforcement agents face a "1,300% increase in assaults," a "3,200% increase in vehicular attacks," and an "8,000% increase in death threats." The agency provided no evidence to support these claims. Court records reviewed by the Los Angeles Times showed agents left most alleged attacks uninjured, and immigration officers made false and misleading statements about protesters in Los Angeles.
