Borders are Tom Homan met with Minnesota Governor Tim Walz Tuesday morning after being sent by
President Trump to oversee ICE operations in the state. Walz's office says after the meeting
the governor and Homan agreed on the need for an ongoing dialogue and will continue working
toward those goals which the president also agreed to yesterday. Homan also met with Minneapolis
Mayor Jacob Fry. Fry posted on X today Chief O'Hara and I met with Borders are Tom Homan
and had a productive conversation. I reiterated that my main task is for Operation Metro Surge
to end as quickly as possible. City leaders will continue to stay in conversation with Mr. Homan
and his team. President Trump also comments on the meetings. Tom is fantastic. Tom is a tough guy
but I've watched over the years and he's gotten along with governors and he gets along with mayors.
Now I spoke to the mayor and to the governor yesterday. We had a very reasonable conversation,
very good conversation. If you believe the conversation he'd like to get this thing
over with. And the Department of Homeland Security says it's investigating a woman
after she attempted to buy a gun for the purpose of killing ICE agents. The DHS says that the woman
who is a U.S. citizen quote attempted to purchase a firearm on two separate occasions and stated she
wanted to buy a gun to protect herself from ICE agents and also to kill ICE agents. DHS Assistant
Secretary Tricia McLaughlin says every day there are more assaults, more vehicle ramming attacks,
more attempts to kill our officers. Now we have an American citizen purchasing
a gun with the intent to kill our officers. We've seen an 8,000 percent increase in death
threats. We're also seeing that their family members, where their children go to school,
where their spouses work, that's being doxed online and they're being targeted too. The DHS
also shared an audio recording of a threatening phone message sent to a Minnesota-based ICE agent.

I hope your wife dies. I hope your mom and dad die. I hope everything wrong that could go in
your life happens. I hope you have the most miserable life. I hope you get hit by a bus.
In response, the DHS says quote the men and women of ICE are fathers and mothers,
sons and daughters. They get up every morning to try to make our community safer.
The violence and dehumanization must end. Jason Blair, NTD News.
