Federal law enforcement agents shot and killed a man in Minneapolis on Jan. 24 according to local police officials. DHS told Fox News that the man was “armed with a gun”. A video of the shooting appears to show that a gun was taken from the man before the first shot was fired. x.com/BillMelugin_...

Our initial analysis is up. The video footage appears to show that the gun was taken away from the man before he was shot. He was UNARMED before any of the shots were fired.

Preparedness tips National Weather Service is asking media partners to pass along for both the snow/ice and cold.

To break down these divisions and the different ways that religious leaders in and beyond Minnesota are responding, Vox correspondent @christianpaz.bsky.social spoke with @jackjenkins.me, a national reporter for the Religion News Service.

If you live in the Twin Cities metropolitan area, I hope you’ll see your story reflected in @taylorcarik.bsky.social’s. Enough that when people outside the area reach out to try to get you to describe it, you can just point them here www.liberalcurrents.com/so-hows-the-...

Its not that the media is not covering what is happening, but it does feel like the military occupation of an American city should be treated as a national crisis.

Sorry, Elon Musk — it’s looking like the rupture between President Donald Trump and Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) might actually be the messiest breakup of Trump’s second term.

There’s an open question hanging over both parties when it comes to Latino voters right now: How should they talk about the second Trump administration’s ongoing campaign of mass deportations?

On what we can actually learn about Hispanic and Latino voters from Tuesday's elections, with @carlosodio.bsky.social: www.vox.com/politics/467...

The slate of Republican losses — and the magnitude of Democratic wins in New Jersey and Virginia, especially — suggest not just that the Democratic backlash to Trump has finally arrived, but that a key part of Trump’s majority — Latino voters —might not actually be loyal Republican voters after all.

Will Latino Trump voters who regret their vote for the Democrats again? www.vox.com/politics/466...

I have some new reporting out from NEW JERSEY, where Latino voters stand to offer some lessons to both parties about post-2020 politics. Read it here www.vox.com/politics/466...

The answer to the question of whether Latino voters have soured on Trump is, pretty clearly, yes. But that just raises a new one: Has their increasing displeasure with Trump’s second term resulted in a new interest in the Democratic Party? @christianpaz.bsky.social went to New Jersey to find out.

For all that energy and enthusiasm of the No Kings protests, the anti-Trump resistance still faces a dilemma: Despite the protests and mass mobilizations of the first Trump term, he was ultimately reelected — with greater support.

Vox correspondent @christianpaz.bsky.social spoke with Theda Skocpol, the Victor S. Thomas Professor of Government and Sociology at Harvard University, to ask her about how effective organized protesting actually is. Read more of their conversation: www.vox.com/politics/465...

Republican elites have recently begun panicking about rising antisemitism among the conservative base. And they're right: this is a crisis. But it's one that is, in large part, of their own making www.vox.com/politics/466...

These videos, and the reactions to them, also point to a widening gap between red and blue America. Read more from @christianpaz.bsky.social:

Viral ICE videos are breaking into traditional and mainstream media, becoming one of the primary ways that different parts of the American public are seeing, processing, and forming opinions about the second Trump administration’s immigration enforcement campaign. voxdotcom.visitlink.me/G-65je

wrote about viral ice videos and the diverging realities they are helping create for different parts of america www.vox.com/politics/464...

Democrats, both in and outside of Congress, actually have tried to resist and obstruct the Trump administration’s second-term agenda. But they haven’t been flashy or high-profile.

The debate over ICE stands to explode during the midterms and the run-up to 2028 as Americans grow more positive on immigration and more negative on ICE.

When (if?) Democrats regain some power, what do they do about ICE? www.vox.com/politics/463...
