Republicans Call on Trump To Arrest Walz

Conflict After an ICE Shooting

Following the fatal shooting of a Minnesota woman by a federal immigration agent —

one of at least two such deadly incidents in Minneapolis this month — tensions have surged.

These events sparked protests and criticism of federal immigration enforcement efforts.

Walz’s Response

Governor Tim Walz has prepared the Minnesota National Guard,

issuing a warning order to make troops ready in

response to rising unrest and federal activity in the state.

Walz said, in effect, that “we do not need any further help from the federal government,”

calling for peace and urging federal agents to leave.

Republican Lawmakers’ Reaction

Some Republican lawmakers have sharply criticized Walz’s stance.

There have been calls from GOP members for President Trump to take strong action,

including potentially invoking the Insurrection Act

a rare authority that could allow the

federal government to use military forces domestically — in response to Walz’s comments.

Ongoing Investigation and Uncertainty

The Justice Department is investigating whether Walz and

Minneapolis officials impeded federal immigration

enforcement through their rhetoric and public actions.

Meanwhile, protests and debates continue,

reflecting deep disagreements over state

versus federal authority on immigration.

and how it would work in this situation.
