'I'm not going anywhere': Despite Musk exit, protests continue at Tesla dealership
A crowd of roughly 150 people protested for an 18th consecutive weekend outside Tesla's Golden Valley, Minnesota, car dealership Saturday. Across the street, a group of about 20 supporters of President Donald Trump and Elon Musk also held signs — playing music and standing in support of Musk. Musk, who announced his departure from the Trump administration this week, is set to return his focus to business holdings. Both groups Saturday say they're not convinced his work with the federal government is over. "I don't believe that for one second," said Bill Henson of Minneapolis, who says he's been at nearly every Saturday protest outside of Tesla's dealership since February. "In fact, Trump made a statement contradicting Elon and saying he's still going to be in the administration, he's still giving guidance — he's still going to be involved." Despite the juxtaposition of the two groups, both sides remained peaceful — at times crossing the street to talk or debate with one another. "I'm just here to support Elon, support President Trump, and support our country," said Becky Gee, a pro-Trump demonstrator. "We can co-exist. You can stand next to us and you can say, well I don't like this that they did in the government this week. And we can say — well, we don't like this part of it, but here's the bigger picture." Anti-Musk protestors say they're committed to staying put each Saturday for the time being. "This is a long game. This is not something where, oh, Elon steps away, it doesn't matter," Henson said. "I'm here for the long haul. I'm not going anywhere."

Milford student speaks out after friend is detained by ICE agents two days before high school graduation
Four Milford High School students were on their way to volleyball practice on Saturday when one of them was taken into custody by ICE agents. WBZ-TV spoke to one of the students in the car, who is also undocumented. He asked to remain anonymous. The student said that they were heading to practice when three unmarked vehicles pulled up behind the car. The agents interrogated them about their documentation before taking the 18-year-old driver into custody. The student said he was not taken into custody by ICE because he is underage. Student describes ICE arrest "An ice officer had stepped out of his vehicle, walked over to us, and knocked on the window. And they asked him what his documentation was," the student continued. "That's kind of when emotion hit, and I began crying. No facial expressions, just tears started coming down my eyes." The student said that his friend, the driver, had been in the country since he was a young child. He said that they weren't doing anything wrong to warrant being pulled over. "I didn't see him run a red light, or I didn't see him do anything that was necessarily illegal. We were just on our way." The group of students is set to graduate on Sunday. The student WBZ-TV spoke to says that he feels afraid that everything he and his friend had worked for is in jeopardy. "I always knew that this was a system where it could get people who were undocumented and committed bad things, but now it's turning into a system that just kicks everybody out based on your status," he said. The 18-year-old who was detained is also a member of the school band, who was set to play at the graduation ceremony. Town responds to student being arrested by ICE Milford Public Schools said ICE had detained several parents of students in recent weeks. "We are all distraught by this news," Superintendent of Milford Public Schools Kevin McIntyre said in a statement. "The Milford Public Schools play no part in immigration enforcement and support all of our students and families, including those who are immigrants to the United States. They are members of the community, students in our classrooms, athletes that compete representing Milford, musicians, artists, friends, and neighbors." Milford Police say they were not informed that ICE would be conducting this operation. The town is outraged and terrified by the string of ICE arrests hitting Massachusetts and their own residents. A protest is planned for Sunday after the Milfrod High School graduation.

16th Street in Denver comes alive for Kickoff to Summer Festival after years of construction
After years of detours, dust, and delays, Denver's 16th Street welcomed summer and the return of its vibrant atmosphere with a festival on Saturday. The Kickoff to Summer Festival marked the completion of a multi-year construction project to reshape the heart of downtown Denver. The celebration drew hundreds of residents and tourists alike who strolled through reopened walkways, enjoyed live music, browsed local vendors, and collected free merchandise. CBS For many Denverites, the day was a nostalgic return to what once was, and an exciting look ahead. "Growing up, 16th Street was kind of the place to be," said one attendee, recalling the area's former energy. But the fanfare wasn't universal. While the street pulsed with renewed life, some local businesses along its edges are still recovering from the impact of years of disruption. Arlet Alvarez, manager of Dragonfly Noodle at the corner of 16th and Market, says the construction significantly affected foot traffic and their bottom line. CBS "This block opened up last August, and we're still not where we want to be," she said. "We've been having to cut a lot of labor hours, so we're struggling with that too." Just a few doors down, the Colorado Artisan Center faced similar challenges. "There was so much construction no one could cross the street," said Cayley McAllister. "We just lost out on a lot of sales because no one could physically get to our store." Despite the difficulties, there's growing optimism. With construction now complete and the street once again buzzing with activity, many businesses are hopeful the crowds will return for good. CBS "We've been waiting for this day going on three years now," said Museum of Illusions General Manager John Campbell. "So we're super excited to have business coming back downtown." As summer begins, the city and its small businesses are ready to turn the page.
