700 ICE officers will leave Minnesota immediately, border czar says
· Global News
Approximately 700 Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers are set to immediately withdraw from Minnesota, according to an announcement by former Acting ICE Director Tom Homan, who currently serves as a border czar advising the Trump administration. The move signals a significant operational shift in the state as federal resources are redirected.
Homan linked the decision to President Donald Trump's broader immigration enforcement agenda, stating the president "intends to achieve mass deportation" and emphasizing that such operations would persist daily. The withdrawal follows heightened tensions over immigration policies in Minnesota, where local authorities have occasionally clashed with federal enforcement priorities. While specific reasons for focusing on Minnesota were not detailed, the redeployment aligns with the administration's recent emphasis on accelerating removals of undocumented immigrants nationwide.
