A rights group says the unrest has killed more than 500 people so far.
Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell says the Fed has been served with grand jury subpoenas by the Department of Justice. Powell confirms officials threatened criminal charges tied to his June 2025 Senate testimony. Powell denies the probe is connected to that testimony, saying the threat stems from the Fed’s handling of interest rates.
Federal immigration enforcement is ramping up in Minnesota. DHS Secretary Kristi Noem says hundreds more agents are arriving after about 2,000 were sent to the Twin Cities. The surge follows a January 7th fatal shooting involving an ICE officer, sparking large protests.
