'No agency is perfect - we have recognised certain improvements could and should be made'
Tom Homan, the border czar, has been deployed to Minneapolis to restore order to federal immigration operations, vowing to remain until the situation is resolved.
His involvement follows the fatal shootings of Renee Good and Alex Pretti, which resulted in CBP Commander Greg Bovino being stood down earlier in the week.
Homan pledged to restore safety and uphold the administration's mission, while acknowledging that improvements could be made within the agency.
He appealed for greater understanding of the pressures faced by immigration forces, insisting that ICE operates within the law and urging peaceful protest.
Homan argued that improved cooperation with ICE would reduce the number of agents required on the streets, highlighting that hostility towards federal forces strains law enforcement.
