The FBI opened a formal investigation into threats made against public officials and the individuals who accompanied 18‑year‑old Nolan Wells before his death, signalling heightened federal involvement in the case. Mississippi Governor Tate Reeves accused civil‑rights attorney Ben Crump and Rev. Al Sharpton of stoking hostility around the investigation.

Louisiana Congressman Cleo Fields announced he will not run for reelection to the U.S. House, choosing instead to seek his former seat in the Louisiana State Senate after his majority‑Black district was eliminated by a new redistricting map. President Donald Trump announced double‑digit tariffs on imports from 60 countries, citing forced‑labour violations; the measures affect more than 99 % of U.S. imports and replace earlier trade actions.

Illinois also held a tribute honoring civil‑rights icons Emmett Till and his mother, recognizing their role in the movement.
