Trump Pulls 700 ICE Agents from Minnesota Amid Enforcement Shift

Trump Pulls 700 ICE Agents from Minnesota Amid Enforcement Shift

The Trump administration has ordered the withdrawal of 700 federal immigration agents from Minnesota, leaving around 2,000 officers in the state. Officials said the decision followed “unprecedented” cooperation from local sheriffs running county jails. Despite the drawdown, the White House stressed that immigration enforcement and deportations would continue nationwide. The move comes after weeks of protests and legal challenges from Minnesota officials over the surge in federal immigration operations.
