Trump Takes Control: Walz Reaches Out and Agrees to Cooperate After Homan Deployed to Minneapolis
President Trump has moved decisively, dispatching former ICE Acting Director Tom Homan to Minnesota to take direct command of immigration enforcement amid escalating unrest following two fatal shootings involving federal agents. Homan will report directly to the president, replacing Border Patrol Commander Greg Bovino on the ground, and housing agents at Fort Snelling as operations intensify. Trump called Homan “tough but fair,” saying he was sending him in to restore order, while Republicans quickly rallied behind the move. Texas Rep. Chip Roy praised the deployment as necessary to calm the situation, Senate Majority Leader John Thune called it a “positive development,” and Sen. Lindsey Graham said Homan brings the experience and authority needed to de-escalate tensions and regain control. With protests growing more aggressive — including blockades, assaults on agents, and federal use of less-lethal munitions — Homan is tasked with coordinating enforcement, working with local officials, and reasserting federal authority as Minnesota braces for further confrontation between ICE and organized resistance.
On the ground, Homan will replace Border Patrol Commander Greg Bovino.
Trump’s decision to send Border Czar Tom Homan to Minnesota appears to be forcing a strategic recalibration between the White House and Governor Tim Walz amid the ongoing crisis following multiple fatal shootings involving federal immigration agents. Trump confirmed that he and Walz spoke by phone in a “very good” conversation, with both leaders acknowledging a tentative alignment on how to de-escalate federal enforcement operations in Minneapolis — a notable shift from prior public sparring. Trump said he instructed Homan to reach out to Walz to coordinate federal efforts, and Walz’s office said Trump agreed to consider reducing the number of federal agents in the state as part of easing tensions. The improved tone came as some Border Patrol agents, including senior commander Gregory Bovino, prepared to leave the area, a move local leaders hope will help calm protests sparked by the controversial shootings.
What a “coincidence” that Tim Walz called President Trump to work together on the riots only *after* the Signal-gate chats were exposed.

Republicans are rallying behind Homan: Some Republicans on Capitol Hill expressed relief after President Donald Trump announced Monday he would send border czar Tom Homan to handle immigration enforcement in Minnesota after Department of Homeland Security agents shot and killed a second U.S. citizen there…. Senate Majority Leader John Thune called the move a “positive development,” while Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) also offered praise Monday, saying on X “we need a new set of eyes and someone with his experience to help turn around the problems of the moment and the future. Tom is the right man to find a way to de-escalate the situation,” Graham added (Politico).
