US border czar defends bringing in federal ‘security’ | ABC NEWS
US President Donald Trump’s border czar Tom Homan says immigration enforcement will reduce the number of officers in Minnesota but suggested that it would happen only after “cooperation” from state officials.
Mr Trump sent Mr Homan to Minnesota in the wake of the Saturday shooting of a protester at the hands of Border Patrol.
Mr Homan doubled down on the need for local jails to alert Immigration and Customs Enforcement to people in their custody who ICE can remove from the country.
