Judge curbs federal crackdown as Minnesota protests hinge on ICE shootings

A federal judge in Minnesota issued a preliminary injunction restricting agents in Operation Metro Surge, barring arrests or the use of pepper spray and limiting crowd-control measures against peaceful protesters. The order, applicable only in Minnesota and to the current operation, also blocks stop-and-detain actions without reasonable suspicion. The ruling comes as protests continue after two ICE shootings in Minneapolis, including the fatal shooting of Renee Good, and as the DOJ investigates Gov. Walz and Mayor Frey for possible obstruction of federal law enforcement.

3rd Circuit Reverses Khalil Release, Keeping Palestinian Activist in Immigration Detention

A three-judge panel of the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals reversed a lower-court decision releasing Palestinian activist Mahmoud Khalil, ruling that immigration challenges must be filed as a petition for review of a final removal order in an appeals court, not a habeas petition, effectively moving Khalil closer to detention and potential deportation with the Trump administration pushing to remand the case.

Mississippi synagogue arson suspect: 19-year-old student-athlete linked to antisemitic posts

A 19-year-old identified by the FBI as the arson suspect in the burning of Mississippi’s Beth Israel Congregation in Jackson posted antisemitic content beforehand, traveled from his Madison County home to the synagogue, and acted alone. Investigators found a burned phone, a torch, and GPS/text evidence tying him to the early-morning blaze; he now faces federal arson charges with a potential five- to 20-year prison term if convicted.

Arson at Mississippi's oldest synagogue spurs federal and state charges against 19-year-old

Authorities say a 19-year-old man set fire to the Beth Israel Congregation’s library in Jackson, Mississippi, causing extensive damage; investigators say he confessed after his father alerted the FBI and evidence, including Life360 location data, corroborated the confession. He faces a federal arson charge and a state hate-crime enhancement, with potential prison time if convicted. The fire was classified as incendiary and started in the library, forcing the synagogue to remain closed for up to a year while repairs are planned. The attack is being treated as antisemitic violence, with community support and local churches offering space as the congregation rebuilds.
