Border czar Tom Homan has announced that President Donald Trump has agreed with his proposal to conclude a federal immigration enforcement surge in Minnesota. Homan’s announcement came less than three weeks after Trump deployed him to Minnesota to run immigration operations there.

Homan said that a “small footprint” of personnel will stay in the area “for a period of time” to transition command back to a local field office, and to ensure “agitator activity” does not flare back up.

Minnesota has been a hotbed of contention between ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) and those who consider themselves “anti-ICE” protestors. Murders have been committed by ICE enforcers, and it’s creating a rift in American culture that will be difficult to overcome at this point.

Homan replaced Border Patrol commander at large Gregory Bovino three weeks ago, according to a report by CNBC.

Last week, Homan announced a drawdown of 700 agents from the area encompassing Minneapolis and St. Paul, a roughly 25% pullback that still left about 2,000 officers in place.

“We’ve seen a big change here in the last couple of weeks,” Homan said at a press conference in Minneapolis. “All good changes.” He added earlier this morning that the withdrawal of enforcers will continue into next week.  Homan also touted a recent de-escalation in tensions, crediting improved coordination between the federal government and state and local leaders since he took over.

“With that, and success that has been made arresting public safety threats and other priorities since this surge operation began, as well as the unprecedented levels of coordination we have obtained from state officials and local law enforcement, I have proposed, and President Trump has concurred, that this surge operation conclude,” Homan said.

The border czar added that Trump will continue to remove large numbers of undocumented immigrants. “For those who say we are backing down from immigration enforcement or the promise of mass deportations, you are simply wrong,” he said.
