US backs Pakistan’s right to defend itself amid cross-border strikes on Afghanistan

Washington publicly backed Pakistan’s claimed right to defend itself after Pakistan bombed Afghan cities amid escalating border clashes, while Kabul said it sought dialogue; Pakistan declared an ‘open war’ and accuses Afghanistan’s Taliban government of sheltering militants, a charge Kabul denies. The EU and UK pressed for de-escalation and renewed talks, and past mediation attempts—including a Qatar-brokered ceasefire in 2025—have yet to yield a lasting peace.

Corporate leaders face tipping point after Minnesota shooting

After Alex Pretti’s death at the hands of federal officers in Minneapolis, corporate leaders wrestle with when and how to speak out. A group of Minnesota-based CEOs released a joint letter calling for de-escalation but stopped short of specific actions, while other executives spoke out more quickly and employees circulated an open letter condemning the killings. Experts say CEOs act at ‘tipping points’ and that collective action matters more than loud individual statements, weighing reputational and talent risks against activism and public pressure.

Trump aides backtrack on Border Patrol defense after Minneapolis shooting, fueling debate over policy shift

After Border Patrol agents fatally shot a Minneapolis nurse, Trump administration officials softened their defense and signaled de-escalation, but there is no clear policy rollback yet. Federal enforcement remains in Minnesota with agents on the ground and a reassessment of tactics, leaving observers to question whether the shift is genuine policy change or tactical damage control amid public outrage.

Trump’s Minnesota de-escalation fizzles in under 48 hours

Trump renewed verbal attacks on Minnesota leaders within 24 hours of a de-escalation push, targeting Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey over immigration enforcement and Rep. Ilhan Omar after a town hall incident, signaling a quick return to confrontation even as some federal agents begin to depart and Tom Homan takes over oversight. Gov. Tim Walz expressed guarded optimism about a path forward but said progress was limited to a tone change, while White House officials criticized local leaders for the crisis.

Trump’s Iran strike won’t deliver his aims, ECFR argues

ECFR contends that any major US strikes against Iran are unlikely to topple the regime or produce a decisive outcome, risk blowback and wider regional war, and mirror failed interventions in Libya and Syria. Iran’s size, resilience, and regional alliances make a quick military victory improbable; Western powers should instead pursue de-escalation through diplomacy, sanctions, protection of civilians, internet access for Iranians, NGO funding for rights monitoring, and coordinated regional efforts to press Tehran and Washington toward de-escalation.

Border Patrol Chief Defends Agents as Victims in Minneapolis Shooting

CBP Commander Gregory Bovino framed the Minneapolis shooting as the agents’ act of duty, calling the agents the victims while defending their training and de-escalation tactics, even as video and independent analyses have questioned whether the suspect, Alex Pretti, was armed and whether the operation unfolded as stated amid the broader immigration crackdown.

Preventable Death: ICE's Tactical Lapses in Renee Good Case

Preventable Death: ICE's Tactical Lapses in Renee Good Case

The author argues Renee Good's death at the hands of ICE was preventable, driven by a series of unprofessional, poorly planned actions—from failing to de-escalate and approaching the vehicle in unsafe ways to delaying medical aid and violating internal policies—raising questions about ICE conduct and accountability regardless of whether the deadly force was legally justified.
