Minneapolis Withdrawal: 700 Agents Leave

Minneapolis saw 700 ICE agents walk out after a January shooting spree that left two U.S. citizens dead. Bovino, the former border patrol chief, called the withdrawal a "surrender" and slammed the lawsuits filed by the victim's family. The lawsuits name Bovino and agent Jonathan Ross, accusing them of creating an "unprecedented environment for state-sponsored violence." Trump's administration pulled roughly 700 agents, sparking protests after video footage showed officers being shot. Bovino, who was removed after the shootings, now says the agents were the "real victims" of the operation. White House spokespersons called the lawsuits "baseless," while the victim's lawyers accuse Bovino of "spewing propaganda." The withdrawal also ended Bovino's tenure, which the administration replaced with White House "border tsar" Tom Homan. Bovino hinted at a 2028 run, saying politicians must step up or face "total spectrum enforcement." The case remains unresolved, with the family awaiting depositions while the administration defends its actions as a cut in immigration.
