A top US immigration official is expected to leave the US city of Minneapolis in what may mark a shift in the White House’s tone after the fatal shooting of a second US citizen by federal officers over the weekend.
As Border Patrol Commander Gregory Bovino and some immigration agents depart, “border tsar” Tom Homan will begin leading on-the-ground efforts in the Minnesota city after the shooting of Alex Pretti on Saturday escalated tensions.
The decision by Donald Trump may indicate the administration’s interest in walking back more aggressive federal action in his nationwide immigration crackdown.
Despite the announcement, online tracking of immigration raids shows the administration’s efforts have still continued.
None of this matters. It’s all just optics to make the general public think the “problem” is taken care of.
The real problem is Peter Thiel (and his bitch Vance), Stephen Miller, Marc Andreeson, Elon Musk, and Donald Trump, in that order.
I agree. Trumps on his Weekend At Bernie’s phase. These robber barons co-opted the coup that Bannon initiated.
Put Bannon in there some where. He’s also one of the most dangerous.
Yeah, there are about 2 dozen that need to be handled as the real problems. I would put Bannon in the top 10 for sure.
I’ll believe they’re trying to tone it down when I see it. And essentially everything I’m aware of at this point indicates that they have no intention of toning it down whatsoever.
Well fuck.
Homan is a very bad person who was already threatening to arrest local elected officials for not cooperating with ICE several months ago.
Whatever happened with that whole him getting caught taking a bag of cash scandal?
Wasn’t it the feds that caught him and then the doj dropped the corruption/bribery investigation?
Pathetic attempt to distance themselves from their guy. The guy they supported and empowered and let loose on civilians. Trump and whole team are responsible for this homicidal maniac having that position. No faulty judgment defence can be made. They are fixed with knowledge by thier own statements
Quick, somebody offer him $50k in cash for ICE to leave the state, we know that’s his going rate for bribes
Sounds like an escalation to me. They are both horrendous.
And now they are going to use a military base https://archive.ph/2026.01.26-202720/https://www.sfchronicle.com/us-world/article/minneapolis-immigration-hegseth-base-21315889.php
