At a Minneapolis hearing on Operation Metro Surge, a federal judge weighed whether Trump’s threats and Bondi’s directive letter show the surge is coercive rather than strictly immigration enforcement, with Minnesota arguing it violates the 10th Amendment and seeks to end the operation, while federal lawyers maintain it’s a lawful response to crime and unrest, and Trump has signaled de-escalation in talks with Gov. Walz.
