In South Korea 🇰🇷, the solar panels in the middle of the highway have a bicycle path underneath - cyclists are protected from the sun, isolated from traffic, and the country can produce clean energy.

Reporter: ''So you agree that people who break in and vandalize a building should be prosecuted?'' JD Vance: ''Yes'' Reporter: ''Ok, I'm just checking, because you helped raise money for people who did so on January 6th''

Alex Pretti’s last words: “Don’t touch her!” “Are you okay?” Renee Good’s last words: “I’m really not mad at you dude…” And this administration wants you to believe these fellow Americans were “domestic terrorists.” This must end. Abolish ICE.

BREAKING: A video has leaked from an immigration detention center believed to be at 31 Hopkins Plaza, in Baltimore Maryland where legal immigrants are not even allowed to bath for over 10 days. The person speaking Spanish is saying the following: "Look at how they have us here. Look at how immigration is treating us. There are people here who are legal, there are people who are not legal, there are people who are losing their families. They are kidnapping us. They have us in a warehouse here in Baltimore. They beat us, they beat an older man. We can’t take it anymore. They have kept us here for more than 10 days without bathing and enduring hunger.”

This is amazing. MN's National Guard has arrived and are distributing donuts, coffee and hot chocolate to anti-ice protestors. They're wearing reflective vests so protestors know they're not Trump Troopers.

Nearly half of the mortality gap between Black and White adults can be traced to the cumulative toll of a lifetime of stress and heightened inflammation, a new study shows. wapo.st/4re3I9i

Breaking: Republican candidate for Minnesota Governor Chris Madel drops out of the race. “I can’t look my daughters in the eye and say I’m running as a Republican, when they’re pulling over Hispanics and Asians because of the color of the skin... I did not sign up for that.”

Thousands and thousands of people have poured into the streets for Minnesota general strike demanding ICE out of their state. Footage via @BTnewsroom.

Take a moment to look at the inhumanity captured in this extraordinary photo running on the front page of tonight's Minneapolis @StarTribune. It shows federal immigration agents immobilizing a protester on the ground and spraying chemical irritant directly into his face. The scene reminds me of the brutality used against civil rights protesters in the 1960s. We look back at those old photos and wonder how the authorities could have behaved so savagely; many years from now, young Americans will look at these photos from 2026 and wonder how anyone could have justified shooting a woman in the head as she tried to drive away, arresting 5-year-old schoolchildren on the street, or holding a man down and spaying chemicals into his face. Thanks to the Star Tribune reporters and photographers for documenting this work; they create accountability, they make democracy work, and they make all of us in journalism proud.

An Army veteran and Purple Heart recipient says that he was tackled and arrested by ICE agents in Minneapolis and held in a cell for eight hours without being allowed to contact an attorney or his family. abcnews.link/Z2qbcpP
