US EditionFederal authorities announce an end to the immigration crackdown in Minnesota
- On Thursday, Feb. 12, Tom Homan, White House Border Czar, announced Operation Metro Surge in Minnesota will end, and President Donald Trump concurred.
- After the Dec. 1 deployment, outrage grew over federal immigration raids that resulted in the deaths of Renee Good and Alex Pretti, sparking protests in Minnesota.
- Earlier this month Homan said roughly 700 agents were sent home, leaving about 2,000 still deployed, with numbers expected to return to about 100 agents plus some investigators and a small closing footprint.
- Gov. Tim Walz will hold a Thursday news conference to announce a relief package, and officials say security teams will stay to respond to agitators as Homan oversees the drawdown into next week.
- Homan said, 'We have a lot of work to do across this country to remove public safety risks who shouldn't even be in this country, and to deliver on President Trump's promise for strong border security, mass deportation,' as critics call for ICE reforms and a recent AP‑NORC poll shows most Americans believe Trump's immigration policies have gone too far.
