Trump Ramps Up ICE Crackdown in Minnesota, Calls Somali Immigrants 'Garbage'

  • Trump referred to Somali immigrants as "garbage" and said they should be sent back to Somalia.
  • During a cabinet meeting, Trump targeted Somalis and Rep. Ilhan Omar, calling Somalia "no good."
  • Trump administration intensifies immigration enforcement against undocumented Somalis in Minnesota.
  • Operation involves ICE "strike teams" with about 100 agents brought in from around the country.
  • Minneapolis mayor Jacob Frey supports Somali community, stating commitment to stand with them.

Why it matters: Trump's rhetoric and ICE actions risk violating due process and detaining American citizens.
