Trump says ICE ‘will leave’ Minneapolis as clashes break out
The Telegraph via Yahoo ^ | January 26th, 2026 | Iona Cleave

Donald Trump has said Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents will leave Minneapolis, after clashes broke out following the shooting of a protester.

The US president did not give a timeline for the withdrawal of federal officers, but promised: “At some point, we will leave. We’ve done, they’ve done, a phenomenal job.”

The White House is under pressure over the killing of Alex Pretti, a 37-year-old nurse, on Saturday.

Mr Trump twice refused to answer whether the officer who shot Pretti had done the right thing. “We’re looking,” he told the Wall Street Journal. He said his team was “reviewing everything and will come out with a determination”.

Granted he did not say they are leaving right away.

However, the longer POTUS allows this insurrection to fester the worse it will be for the country.

International communism is STILL at war with the US and they intend to win. I don't see the will to win by our side.

What does that have to do with POTUS quotes and the subject at hand?

If he gives in to these POS, he is done in my book and so is the GOP. Take it all, Frankly, I don’t give a damn if those entrusted with keeping the republic don’t care either.

He took a gun to a “peace Protest”. Someone saw it and yelled ...”GUN!” Now he is dead.
Reminds me of a scene in LETHAL WEAPON in which under cover cop Mel Gibson dressed as a bum sitting in a police station removes his firearm from his pocket. Someone sees it and screams “GUN!” and all he!! breaks lose .
In REAL LIFE, Mel would have been dead within a few seconds.

Retreat is not what is needed becasue it will encourage them to do more of their insurrection and it will spread.

Our idiot governor Stitt didn’t help matters one bit.

It seems Minneapolis has a shadow police and woke-brownshirt SS political street-action force - highly trained and highly organized to protect the interests of thieving local Democrats

Pull them back ten miles from Walz’s house and then nuke it.

They are coming unhinged because the Abe Lincoln is in range of their friends now.

And, the fraud issue is getting bigger.

“At some point, we will leave. We’ve done, they’ve done, a phenomenal job.”

Ya, sure ... obviously.

That's a really weak statement, though.

You're AT WAR, Donny Boy! Act like it.

Telegraph just stirring the pot with their specious headline.

Correct. Because police training sucks.

I believe your comment is shared by a lot of MAGA. The GOP can kill the midterms goodbye.

“If he gives in to these POS, he is done in my book”

I’m sick of him doing nothing. “Ballroom.” “NFL.” They aren’t important. America First is important and he, Bondi, and Patel are failing bigly.

For Trump to send Holman to Minnesota this is going to play out 2 ways, either Trump is sending the word to Tampon Timmy you stop or else or Trump is caving.

POTUS is not Emperor.

If the majority of his party is not behind him there’s nothing he can do unless he wants to declare martial law and take over everything.

We’re getting the government we elected.
