Democratic Gov. Tim Walz will give a statewide address on Wednesday night on "the federal government's ongoing presence" in the state amid Operation Metro Surge.

JD Vance and ICE are flipping the script on sanctuary politicians who accuse the agency of unleashing chaos, saying it is their rhetoric that is creating dangerous conditions.

Walz is speaking eight days after an ICE agent fatally shot 37-year-old Renee Good in south Minneapolis, and after the U.S. Department of Homeland Security has deployed thousands of federal agents to Minnesota as part of the Trump administration's Operation Metro Surge.

The men leading the Vikings' operations don't sound ready to give up on quarterback J.J. McCarthy, but neither are they speaking like they're satisfied at the position.

President Donald Trump's administration is also lashing out at the state by threatening to withhold billions in federal money, much of it intended to help low-income families with food aid, health care and child care — and with a new lawsuit against the state.

As immigration enforcement actions have ramped up in Minnesota, people of faith have been at the forefront of the response to ICE detentions and the killing of Renee Macklin Good by a federal agent.

The deployment of thousands of federal agents could result in a federal presence larger than many local police forces combined.

A video circulating on social media shows federal immigration officers putting a worker into a gray pickup truck in a parking lot behind General Mills’ Chanhassen manufacturing facility in the second week of January.
