🚨BREAKING: DHS has been caught lying AGAIN. This time, by claiming that THEY are the ones taking the “worst of the worst” off Minnesota streets. When the truth is… Minnesota Department of Corrections are handing over the “worst of the worst” to ICE. “DOC quickly identified 68 cases in which individuals were lawfully transferred from Minnesota Department of Corrections custody directly to ICE, only for DHS officials to falsely claim these same individuals were “arrested” by waves of federal agents deployed into Minnesota communities.” DHS is not protecting communities or enforcing the law. They’re terrorizing children, families, and legal residents, violating constitutional rights, and trafficking people. This isn’t just propaganda. It’s an abuse of power used to justify a violent government takeover targeting POC. DHS calls it “removing criminals.” We call it human trafficking and constitutional violations.

Marcos Charles, a top deportation official in Minneapolis, accused state officials of failing to turn people over to federal custody, claiming there were more than 1,360 pending ICE detainers statewide. Paul Schnell, the commissioner of the Minnesota Department of Corrections, has called the claims "fundamentally false," saying his department routinely communicates with ICE in the weeks before an incarcerated person's release to arrange handoffs if a detainer is in place. CBS News' Nicole Sganga reports from Minneapolis.

Vance: “A lot of people in the media have said the reason why we made a change at DHS is because the Trump administration is backing off of its illegal immigration enforcement policy. That couldn’t be further from the truth. The reason that we’re making this change is because Kristi Noem has a great opportunity to serve in this new Shield of the Americas position.”

🇺🇸 VP VANCE: WE HAVE TURNED OFF THE MONEY SPIGOT IN MINNESOTA The Department of Health and Human Services has officially frozen all child care payments to the state of Minnesota following a viral exposé uncovering rampant fraud. The administration is moving to stop millions in taxpayer dollars from flowing to fraudulent daycare operators, implementing a new "defend the spend" system that requires strict verification for every dollar sent: “Turning off payments and forcing verification before taxpayer money flows out the door is one of the most important steps we can take to end the fraud in Minnesota. But there will be many more to come. We have frozen all child care payments to the state of Minnesota. You have probably read the serious allegations that the state of Minnesota has funneled millions of taxpayer dollars to fraudulent daycares across Minnesota over the past decade. Today we have taken three actions.” The Trump administration is declaring an end to the era of unchecked federal handouts. By demanding receipts, photo evidence, and a comprehensive audit of every suspicious facility, they are making it clear that accountability is no longer optional, it is the new standard.

Commissioner Paul Schnell of the Department of Corrections makes it very clear here. The DOC has a policy to work with ICE because it's good public safety policy. "And to be accused of harboring or not cooperating is not just untruthful, it's unfair," said Schnell.

Minnesota is truly one of the most beautiful places in the country. this narrative about it being “a shit hole, dangerous and scary” is just categorically false. the only thing more awe inspiring than Minnesota itself is our communities that continue to rise through tragedy.

BREAKING: Karoline Leavitt just CONFIRMED that ICE and DHS are not backing down in Minnesota! This is the SPINE we all voted for! "The deadly incident that took place in Minnesota yesterday occurred as a result of a larger, sinister left-wing movement that has spread across our country where our brave men and women of federal law enforcement are under organized attack." They are actually SURGING more agents into Minnesota! "The Department of Homeland Security will continue to operate on the ground in Minnesota, not only to remove criminal, illegal aliens, but all so to continue conducting door to door investigations of the rampant fraud that has taken place in the state under the failed and corrupt leadership of democratic governor Tim Walz, taxpayers have been ripped off to the tune of billions of dollars in this one state alone, and that is going to end and people our going to be held accountable." HUGE!

Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison said during a Senate Homeland Security Committee hearing on Thursday that the Trump administration's Operation Metro Surge "is contributing to violent crime" in the state. "Two of the three homicides committed in Minneapolis in 2026 have come at the hands of federal immigration agents," Ellison said during his opening statement. "Recently, the government has said the purpose of the surge is to gain cooperation from state and local officials and immigration enforcement, but the Minnesota Department of Corrections already follows state law that requires Minnesota to notify federal authorities when a non-citizen incarcerated for a felony," he added.
