Just days after the killing of a Mexican immigrant in Texas, immigration agents fatally shot another immigrant, also driving to work, this time in a small town in southern Maine. Joan Sebastián Durán Guerrero, originally from Colombia, was 26 years old and the father of a 3-year-old daughter. He was reportedly authorized to work in the United States, had been issued a Social Security number and was not the target of any warrant. The Department of Homeland Security has defended the shooting, saying that ICE fired on Guerrero in his car out of fear for "public safety." Witnesses say they say they saw agents dragging Guerrero from the car after the shooting as he told them that he had been trying to "stop." For more, we speak to Biddeford, Maine, resident Eisha Khan, the wife of the town's mayor, Liam LaFountain, about the community's "shell-shocked" response to Guerrero's death.

We get an update on elections and voting rights in the United States from Mother Jones's national voting rights correspondent, Ari Berman, who warns of President Donald Trump's escalating attempts to "try to claim dictatorial power" and commit an "unprecedented intervention" into the 2026 midterm elections. Whether it takes the form of claims of foreign interference, canceling mail-in voting or requiring proof of citizenship, "[t]he bottom line here is they keep lying about the 2020 election so that they can justify massive interference in the 2026 election," says Berman. "That's something that we all need to be very vigilant about."
