Gov. Tim Walz said that President Donald Trump pledged to “do things differently” on the federal immigration surge during a Monday morning call.
“Whether it was morality or bad optics and poll numbers, whatever has happened here there’s a definite change of tone. There’s definitely a more collaborative tone. I’m going to take them for their word right now,” since Saturday’s killing of Alex Pretti by a federal agent in Minneapolis, Walz told MPR News host Clay Masters Monday afternoon.
He said Trump agreed to consider reducing the number of immigration enforcement agents in the Twin Cities and ensure the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension could conduct independent investigations into the killings of Pretti and Renee Macklin Good.
