Text from article:
Photographic evidence from the shooting scene of a Venezuelan man by federal agents last month in Minneapolis supports the account of witnesses there — and appears to undercut the narrative provided by federal officials.

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security has repeatedly claimed that an officer fired a single shot in self-defense during a violent encounter involving a shovel and a broom on Jan. 14, shortly after a man fled from a traffic stop during a targeted enforcement effort.

But at a federal court hearing in St. Paul on Tuesday, an attorney for one of the men accused of assaulting that officer showed a federal judge and several reporters photographs on his laptop depicting a single bullet hole through the front door of the north Minneapolis home. Additional photographs show damage consistent with a bullet fragment lodged in a bedroom wall down the hallway — suggesting it traveled between a mattress and a portable crib in a room where several small children sleep.

That supports what family members have said all along: A federal agent shot at them through the front door, striking 24-year-old Julio Cesar Sosa-Celis in the thigh, while they were inside the threshold of the residence.

New activist checklist for anyone working to hold immigration agents accountable. I haven't read it yet (pretty overwhelmed with other stuff right now), but I have it on good authority that it's up-to-date and useful.

House passes bill to reopen government, sending it to #Trump.

Catie Edmondson, Feb. 3, 2026, 12:39 p.m. ET

"The House on Tuesday passed a spending package to end the partial government shutdown and keep the Department of Homeland Security running while Democrats and President Trump negotiate over restrictions on the administration’s immigration crackdown.

"The vote was 217 to 214 to send the measure to Mr. Trump’s desk, where he was expected to quickly sign the agreement to reopen major parts of the government since funding lapsed on Saturday But under the deal, the money for the Department of Homeland Security lasts just through the end of next week."

This analyis of the #AlexPretti murder by #CBP agents calls it a "systems failure" and misses the key factor: The agents' complete indifference (at best) to the lives of Pretti and other protesters. Yes, they clearly had no idea how to manage the situation in a safe way, but that's because THEY DIDN'T CARE. medpagetoday.com/opinion/secon

"The VP took to X to respond to RI Rep S Magaziner, who argued that🚨many of the families #ICE & #CBP are detaining are #immigrants who entered the country legally.

Vance🚨attacked thešŸ’™family of #Liam Conejo Ramos, the 5-yr-old who was detained by federal immigration agents in Minnesota along with his father, falsely claiming that the family entered the US unlawfully."

ā€œIt’s unlikely that #Congress would want to leave a patchwork of different #state regulations & different remedies,ā€ Vikram Amar said.

Link to 1987 law review article ā€œOf Sovereignty and Federalismā€ by Akhil Reed Amar∶ akhilamar.com/wp-content/uploa

As for the part of the #law that lets people sue #federal agents for violations of the #Illinois #Constitution, the 2 professors wrote, ā€œthat provision won’t standā€ under the #SupremacyClause.

Still, Vikram Amar said, such #StateLaws can serve a larger purpose.

ā€œIn the spirit of #federalism. Not only can #states experiment in this way, but doing so would likely lead #Congress to address the problem,ā€ he said.

Citing Professor Amar’s article, Judge Walker concluded that ā€œnothing would stop a #state from creating a new cause of action allowing plaintiffs to directly allege federal constitutional violations.ā€

The #Illinois #law did that, but in imperfect fashion, acc/to a critique from Vikram David Amar, a law professor at UC Davis (& Akhil Amar’s brother), & Jason Mazzone, a law professor at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign.
