Vice President JD Vance traveled to Minnesota for a high-profile appearance amid intense protests over federal immigration enforcement. The federal government deployed several thousand ICE agents who have repeatedly clashed with angry residents. Tensions escalated after the fatal shooting of 37-year-old Renee Good by an ICE officer, prompting residents to demand that ICE leave the state. Vance defended the ICE agent involved and blamed "far-left people" and some state and local law enforcement officials for the turmoil. Governor Tim Walz accused the federal government of causing the confrontation and urged targeted enforcement of violent offenders. ICE actions included the recent detention of a 5-year-old boy taken with his father to a detention facility in Texas.
