DHS says ICE agent defended himself from 'domestic terrorism'; a similar claim in Chicago was dismissed
An attorney, whose client was shot by a federal agent during a recent immigration enforcement operation in Chicago, sees direct parallels to the deadly encounter in Minneapolis on Wednesday and is skeptical of the Trump administration’s portrayal of the shooting as an act of domestic terrorism.

Can ICE agents shoot at moving vehicles? Yes and no.
ICE and other immigration agents are “generally" prohibited from firing at moving vehicles. But the policy includes an exception for when agents feel someone is “threatening deadly force" and "no other objectively reasonable means of defense is available."

Some ICE agents wear body cameras...but not everywhere
Bystander videos showed an ICE agent shooting and killing a driver in south Minneapolis. It is not clear whether the ICE agent had a body-worn camera that recorded what happened right before the shooting.

H&H Podcast: Vikings’ turnaround, Wolves warning signs & Flores head coach debate
In this week’s episode of the H & H Podcast, Ahmad Hicks and Henry Lake break down the current state of the Minnesota Timberwolves following a stretch of big wins mixed with some tough losses. While acknowledging the positives, both hosts also point out key areas of concern that could impact the Wolves moving forward. On the gridiron, the Vikings are riding a season-high four-game winning streak and have an opportunity to close the year strong with a rivalry matchup. Hicks sees the turnaround as an encouraging sign for a team that struggled early, crediting the defense for leading the resurgence. Lake goes a step further, arguing that defensive coordinator Brian Flores has done enough to earn another head coaching opportunity. Hicks pushes back, questioning whether Flores’ ongoing lawsuit against the NFL could stand in the way of him leading a team. The Gophers football program added another bowl win under P.J. Fleck, but neither Hicks nor Lake were particularly impressed with the performance. Meanwhile, Minnesota’s basketball programs are gaining momentum—especially the women’s team, which sits at 10–3 on the season and is preparing for a challenging stretch against ranked opponents.
