US EditionTrump on pulling back federal presence in Minnesota: ‘Not at all’
Tom Homan will reduce ICE and Customs and Border Protection agents on Minnesota streets, shifting more to jails, depending on local officials providing access to undocumented detainees.
- On Thursday, White House border czar Tom Homan announced plans to draw down ICE and CBP operations in Minnesota, but President Donald Trump publicly contradicted this approach.
- Homan was sent in after two fatal shootings and a leadership change, replacing Greg Bovino as Operation Metro Surge deployed about 3,000 federal agents.
- Homan outlined specific operational shifts, saying there will be "more agents in the jail, less agents in the street" and arrests will prioritize undocumented immigrants with criminal records and public-safety threats.
- A federal judge temporarily barred DHS from arresting refugees in Minnesota, and Homan said any drawdown depends on cooperation from Gov. Tim Walz and Mayor Jacob Frey.
- The two-week DHS funding agreement creates a narrow window for policy negotiations amid Democrats' reform demands and over 150 House Democrats' impeachment efforts against Kristi Noem.
