US Border Security Chief Withdraws 700 Agents from Minnesota

Tom Homan, the US border security chief, announced a drawdown of 700 immigration enforcement personnel in Minnesota, citing increased cooperation with local authorities following the controversial killings of two US citizens by immigration agents. Despite this reduction, Homan affirmed that immigration enforcement will continue, targeting those deemed “public safety threats.” Protests have erupted over the administration’s tactics, which critics describe as excessively aggressive and violative of constitutional rights. A recent poll indicated widespread disapproval of ICE’s actions, particularly among Democrats, while support remains strong among Republicans.
