Trump did what today?

2/6/2026

Minneapolis now has daily deportation flights. One man has been documenting them

  • Nick Benson, a resident of Minneapolis, is documenting daily deportation flights at the Minneapolis-St. Paul airport.
  • He counts detainees being loaded onto ICE flights, revealing the opaque nature of deportation operations under the Trump administration.
  • In January alone, Benson estimated that 2,339 people were deported, with many being sent out of state within short notice after detainment.
  • Benson's tracking efforts provide important data in a situation often lacking transparency from the federal government.
  • He finds the experience emotionally heavy but feels it's crucial work and intends to continue.

Some Public Health Service officers deployed in detention centers suffer 'moral distress'

  • Nearly 400 officers from the U.S. Public Health Service are deployed to detention centers amid rising immigrant arrests.
  • Many officers report feelings of 'moral distress' as they feel they are facilitating inhumane operations rather than providing care.
  • Concerns over safety delays and overcrowding have led some medical professionals to resign.
  • Officers often feel conflicted about their role, as they are compelled to care for vulnerable populations created by policies they oppose.
  • The morale crisis within the service raises important questions about the future of healthcare in ICE facilities.

Poll: Two-thirds of Americans say ICE has 'gone too far' in immigration enforcement

  • A new poll shows that 65% of Americans believe ICE has gone too far with immigration enforcement, which has increased since last summer.
  • Following recent shootings by federal agents in Minnesota, disapproval of President Trump's handling of immigration policy is growing.
  • Democrats and independents express significant concern over ICE's tactics, with many believing they make the public less safe.
  • Despite heavy disapproval among certain voter demographics, Trump’s core base still supports his immigration measures.
  • The poll highlights a stark divide between Trump's supporters and those who oppose his immigration policies.

Trump officials propose testing a citizenship question amid a push to alter the census

  • The Trump administration suggests asking about U.S. citizenship in the upcoming 2030 census field tests.
  • This push aligns with Republican lawmakers' efforts to exclude non-citizens from census counts for political representation.
  • Court cases are ongoing as GOP-led states seek to challenge how census data is used, particularly regarding immigration status.
  • Many fear that a citizenship question will lead to undercounting historically marginalized communities, impacting resource distribution.
  • Previous Supreme Court rulings blocked a citizenship question in 2020, creating a complex legal landscape for future census actions.

Dog sled, ski ballet and other sports you could once see at the Winter Olympics

  • The upcoming Winter Olympics will feature 16 sports but exclude many former events like dog sledding and ski ballet.
  • These previous events often served as demonstrations to promote new sports but were discontinued after 1992.
  • Sports like curling, which started as demonstrations, have since gained official status in the Olympics.
  • Changes in Olympic sports reflect evolving interests and viewership trends, with the IOC focusing on inclusivity and cost.
  • Former demonstration sports contribute to the rich history of the Olympics, showcasing various cultural elements.
