The killing of Alex Pretti by Border Patrol agents upended a federal spending deal at the last minute, virtually guaranteeing a partial shutdown.

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer of New York says he'll vote against DHS funding after federal agents fatally shot Alex Pretti in Minneapolis.

Bets on a government shutdown happening by Jan. 31 are now at 78%, spiking over the weekend following another civilian death in Minnesota.

Democratic senators are vowing to oppose a funding bill for the Department of Homeland Security following the shooting death of a 37-year-old Minnesota man, a stand that increases the prospect of a partial government shutdown by the end of the week.

The U.S. government may partially shutdown on Saturday months after a record 43-day closure in 2025.

"1. ICE must leave Minneapolis. 2. Congress should not fund this version of ICE - that is seeking confirmation, chaos and dystopia."

"No work, no school, no shopping." Anti-ICE efforts continue to ramp up Minneapolis, coordinated by a coalition of socialists, communists, and labor unions.

The January 23 Day of Action is framed as a statewide pause for nonviolent moral reflection and collective action, culminating in a peaceful march and rally in downtown Minneapolis at 2:00 pm. While participation levels remain uncertain, organizers argue the scope of coordination already represents a turning point.
