Trump criticizes the governor and mayor of Minnesota for not protecting ICE agents, accusing them of inciting insurrection and fraud.

In a post on Truth Social, Donald Trump launched attacks against the governor of Minnesota and the mayor of Minneapolis, accusing them of "inciting insurrection" and neglecting the protection of ICE agents. Trump shared a photo of a recovered weapon and questioned why local police did not intervene to protect the ICE officers, whom he called "patriots" in the fight against violent immigrants. He suggested that local authorities are distracting from a fraud scandal and called for the billions of dollars he believes were stolen from the state to be recovered. His message came in the context of a recent incident in which a man was killed by ICE agents in Minneapolis, marking the second similar incident in less than three weeks. Trump emphasized that 12,000 foreign criminals have been arrested and called for ICE agents to be allowed to fulfill their duty.
