America’s largest immigration enforcement operation brought 3,000 federal agents to Minneapolis, prompting coordinated state and federal responses. The Minnesota National Guard stood by as the force outnumbered the city’s 800-officer police department during the immigration enforcement operation. The Pentagon put 1,500 soldiers on standby after President Trump threatened to invoke the Insurrection Act. Judge Menendez questioned the administration’s labeling of Renee Good as a “domestic terrorist,” while a New York Times inquiry reported no evidence an agent was run over. The FBI declined to investigate agent Ross as prosecutors pursued Good’s widow and activist networks; six federal prosecutors resigned. Protests were largely peaceful, Governor Tim Walz declined federal military assistance, and related legal challenges continued.
