Kristi Noem has been left utterly humiliated as her hard-charging ICE agents were given new rules last night to ignore 'agitators' and only arrest 'criminal' migrants as part of Trump's new deportation agenda.
***
Trump appointed Homan to take command of immigration enforcement in Minnesota. Homan is a longtime rival of Noem and her rumored lover, Corey Lewandowski. [Ed. note: gratuitous, superfluous]
'This is common sense cooperation that allows us to draw down the number of people we have here. Yes, I said it. Draw down the number of people here,' Homan told reporters.
New guidance for ICE directs agents to only target immigrants who have criminal charges or convictions, avoid confrontation with protesters and 'verbalize every step of the arrest process.'
The Homan-led drawdown hinges on local officials agreeing to help capture criminals. Homeland Security has sent approximately 3,000 immigration agents to the Minneapolis area.
The constraints on ICE mark a complete departure from the broad immigration enforcement tactics that have seen two protesters shot dead this month.
*** 'DO NOT COMMUNICATE OR ENGAGE WITH AGITATORS,' read an email to ICE agents in the Twin Cities obtained by Reuters. 'It serves no purpose other than inflaming the situation. No one is going to convince the other. The only communication should be the officers issuing commands.'
Under the new guidance outlined in the email, ICE officers will receive megaphones so that they can issue commands to the public and 'need to verbalize every step of the arrest process.' The guidance does not describe what sort of actions would trigger commands or what officers should do if commands are ignored.
***
‘We are moving to targeted enforcement of aliens with a criminal history,' it read. 'This includes arrests, not just convictions. ALL TARGETS MUST HAVE A CRIMINAL NEXUS.'***

If true, Noem is toast.
First of all the draw down is the result of Minnesota agreeing to arrest protesters who interfere.
These articles are sickening, bringing Corey Lewandowski into the story as her supposed lover?
BS The situation required an adjustment and that’s what they did. The Daily Mail is nest of Trump hating a-holes.
I do not see any change, really. Going after illegal alien criminals is what the officers have been doing all along.
You can only ignore the commies up to a point. When they assault officers, they have to be taken down. That will not and must not change.
I’ve not seen videos of the officers responding to the taunts of the commie rabble. They have stoically held their ground under unimaginable abuse.
[Ed. note: gratuitous, superfluous]
Fake news. No change in policy. Minneapolis agreed to allow ICE to take custody in prisons & jails. That agreement means less personel will be needed.
so local police will be there to arrest the Lemmings after they confront ICE ?
“new rules last night to ignore ‘agitators’”
That’s all sunshine and roses, EXCEPT that the agitators are physically attacking ICE. They’re not supposed to defend themselves?
take the daily mail with a grain of salt. they are here to stir up crap on us. they should be called: the dailyfail. yawn. think for yourself.
Good thing I listened to the news conference as it is not how DM is spinning it.
Good luck ignoring the “agitators” while they block your vehicles, make noise to give away your position to perps and take pot shots at you.
Lol.
“ If true, Noem is toast.”
**********************
LOL Noem is most certainly NOT toast. Remember the mainstream media is constantly trying to advance their agenda.
Depends on what your goals are. Efficient and effective deportations? Show of military style force to satisfy egos and have fun while splitting wigs?
That is not exactly an accurate report. He was asked if he would arrest people whose only crime is coming here illegally. He said he would, but known criminals would be the priority.
DHS has to find the spies inside the DHS that are leaking info
Yes. Anyone who is disheartened by any mouthpiece of the British needs a wakeup call.
I would not trust the Daily Mail to report anything in a way that is not sensationalized. I doubt that ICE was performing its duties in a way that provoked confrontation before this. I also don’t think they were prioritizing illegal immigrants who did not commit other crimes. Noem is not humiliated but she has been sidelined from managing immigration law enforcement. Homan is and always was the better person to do that and frankly, I thought that was his job to begin with.
I didn’t know there was a problem between Homan and Noem.
There’s a “high-stakes” cabinet meeting going on now. I wonder if this will be an issue.
🤞 Maybe he’ll announce a new AG appointment. 🤞
There has been a clip shown of one driving a government vehicle wearing a North Face balaclava with the window open debating with the commies. He looks Asian.
