After conversations with White House officials, Gov. Tim Walz said Tuesday that the surge of federal agents in Minnesota could be winding down.
“It’s my expectation, and we will hear more from them in the next day or so, that we are talking days, not weeks and months, [remaining] of this occupation,” Walz said.
Walz said he spoke to White House border official Tom Homan on Monday and to President Donald Trump’s chief of staff, Susie Wiles, on Tuesday.
Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey also met with Homan on Monday and discussed a drawdown of federal agents in the coming weeks.
In another development, ex-CNN anchor Don Lemon will be represented by former acting U.S. Attorney Joe Thompson in his criminal case tied to an anti-ICE demonstration at a St. Paul church.
