On Wednesday, Border Czar Tom Homan announced that 700 federal law enforcement agents are leaving Minnesota, citing increased cooperation between ICE and local law enforcement.

From The Epoch Times:
The reduction was made possible due to the “unprecedented cooperation” with local counties on honoring Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detainers on illegal immigrant prisoners, Homan said at a press conference in Minneapolis. ICE detainers ask jails to notify federal authorities before an illegal immigrant prisoner is to be released, so federal agents can detain them for removal.
“This is smarter enforcement, not less,” Homan said.
…
The Trump administration’s goal is to end the surge of federal agents in the city, Homan said. But this will depend on continued cooperation with local authorities, and a decrease in attacks and hateful rhetoric against ICE and border patrol agents, he added.
According to The Hill, 2,000 federal law enforcement officers remain in the state. The Trump administration’s goal is to bring staffing down to the level it was at before Operation Metro Surge began. This would leave Minnesota with 150 federal officers.
Homan also called on protestors to stop impeding law enforcement operations. While he acknowledged that “everyone has a constitutional right to peacefully protest,” he also stressed that “professional law enforcement officers should and need to be able to perform their sworn duties without being harassed, impeded, or assaulted.” The border czar added that, of the 700 officers that left Minnesota, the administration did not draw down on personnel providing security for immigration enforcement.
This move comes as ICE has faced increased scrutiny following the deaths of Renee Good and Alex Pretti. The Times notes that lawmakers on Capitol Hill are currently debating continued funding for DHS, with Senate Democrats demanding changes and more accountability as a condition for voting. President Trump even acknowledged a need for change, admitting on NBC Nightly News that ICE could use a “softer touch.”
Attacks against federal law enforcement are continuing, but it seems that the Trump administration may have finally reached a compromise with Minnesota’s and Minneapolis’ leaders. Let’s pray that Minnesota and states like it would support law and order and work with ICE officers, not against them!

There is so much that goes on in those peak times of ‘peaceful protest’ that is unknown to people watching the scene unfold; actions and reactions compound based on each person’s experiences. What we see after the fact is compounded by thoughts, feelings and actions of the people reporting what they saw. Our and their greatest weapon is Holy Spirit and the angels being released through prayer for protection, provision and ultimately truth to be seen and heard. We must keep praying, covering ICE and protesters in prayer; trusting Jesus to continue to reveal truth, and open blinded eyes on both sides of the aisle. Jesus, thank you for working in this and many other situations, bringing beauty from ashes, truth from lies. Help us all to keep our eyes on you, pray for these situations but not be distracted by them, in Jesus’ name….
I can only pray that this works our satisfactorily, and that ICE is able to do their job, without any interference of these “protestors”. I hope that this move by Thomas Homan and President Trump will bring about a more positive level of coordination of the efforts of ICE and the local law enforcement in Minneapolis, and all of Minnesota.
There wouldn’t be a need for ICE if….
But there IS a justifiable need. Protect the good people from dangerous illegal’s that the state is refusing to deal with. Waltz must be held accountable.
Thank you Lord for showing us a weak point that needs improvement. Exposing is only half the job, Lord put the correct people in correct positions move mightily on this issue.
In Jesus name
But no accountability from and no arrests of Walz, Frey and other Democrats who instigated this mess, ‘who made the masses fanatical, to make them instruments of’ their ‘policies’. During Obama administration, ICE were heroes, but, because the Left and Democrats hate Pres. Trump, ICE is now the enemies and easy to scapegoat, like the police were during the George Floyd debacle. 🤦♀️
Almighty, in Jesus’ name, please help clear this mess and bring justice and change, where and when necessary. Thank you and amen.
I wonder if someone talked with President Trump about changing his views on ICE, as in the deep state . . . .
An answer to prayer.
While it is definitely difficult for me to have compassion for Muslims, I realize that it is all in God’s hands. We see the most tyrannical Islamic country, Iran, turning away from Islam. Many are seeking Christ. This should offer encouragement to all of us. I pray that God will sweep the nations with the spiritual uplifting.
destroy the leftys power in Minnesota so law can be pushed to it thorough capacity.
