Tom Homan, President Trump's border czar, has announced the successful conclusion of a major ICE surge operation in Minnesota, yielding extraordinary results including the arrest of over 4,000 illegal aliens and the location of 3,364 missing unaccompanied alien children previously lost track of under the Biden administration.
The operation, ordered directly by President Trump, targeted convicted child rapists, sex offenders, and other dangerous individuals who had been released into communities under prior catch-and-release policies. Homan delivered on all objectives, demonstrating what the announcement described as real leadership in enforcing immigration law.
Responses from the political left have been intense, with teachers reportedly abandoning classrooms to protest federal agents by blowing whistles. Organized mobs stormed Target stores from Minneapolis to Manhattan, demanding that the retail chain prohibit ICE agents from shopping there. One video captured a mother instructing her young daughter to color obscenities on an anti-ICE protest sign while vulgar music played in the background.
The president of the Minneapolis Federation of Educators was recorded bragging about escalating tactics against corporations cooperating with federal law enforcement, specifically naming Target and Delta Airlines, along with their business partners, for "organized disruption."
Stephen Miller highlighted that Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison had issued an unlawful edict requiring all jails and prisons in the state to shield criminal illegal aliens from ICE. That policy has now been overturned.
Homan personally secured an agreement on the ground ensuring that these facilities will comply with federal law and hand over criminal aliens upon their release, effectively ending the shielding of such individuals.
Miller celebrated the operation's impact, noting the removal of thousands of pedophiles, rapists, gang members, and murderers from Minnesota communities. He credited President Trump with achieving the lowest murder rate on record nationwide.
