The Trump administration has announced a significant reduction in the number of immigration agents stationed in Minnesota. White House border czar Tom Homan revealed that 700 federal agents will be withdrawn from the state.

President Donald Trump had previously increased the number of armed immigration agents in and around Minneapolis earlier this year, a move that sparked protests. The decision to scale back comes amid ongoing debates over federal immigration policies.

Critics of the President's policies argue that these actions exacerbate tensions and compromise community relations, urging a reevaluation of immigration enforcement strategies.
