DHS says an undocumented Ecuadorian man with prior sexual‑assault convictions escaped custody two days ago and ran into Ecuador’s consulate, where consulate staff allegedly sheltered him. DHS alleges ICE was present at the consulate during the incident and that the individual remains at large, posing a public‑safety threat. The department says it is investigating and coordinating with local and federal partners. Critics and some officials have demanded the consulate be shut down for allegedly shielding a dangerous suspect; Ecuador’s government and the consulate have not issued a public response. Authorities say updates will be provided as the investigation continues soon.

Today the U.S. Supreme Court, in a 6–3 decision, allowed Texas’s controversial 2026 congressional map to stand for the 2026 elections, staying a lower court’s order that had blocked the map as a likely racial gerrymander. The map, drawn in 2025 and signed by Gov. Greg Abbott, is engineered to net Republicans five additional House seats and reshape several urban districts. The ruling clears the way for the new lines to be used while litigation continues, putting vulnerable Democrats — including Reps. Jasmine Crockett and Al Green — at risk of losing their seats. The three liberal justices dissented strongly. (washingtonpost.com)

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers in Minneapolis tried to pursue a man with a criminal history who fled into the Ecuadorian consulate, but consulate staff physically blocked agents from entering. Ecuador’s foreign ministry called the incident an “attempted incursion,” released video showing the confrontation, and lodged a formal diplomatic protest with the U.S. embassy in Quito. ICE said officers were conducting a targeted enforcement operation and were focused on public safety; it denied entering the consulate. The episode, amid a large ICE deployment in Minneapolis, has drawn criticism and raised legal and diplomatic concerns, and the suspect remains at-large. (theguardian.com)
