White House doubles down on Minnesota Dems as Trump signals de-escalation after Walz call

The White House continues to blame Minnesota Democrats for the chaos after the Minneapolis shooting of Alex Pretti, even as Trump says he and Gov. Walz are on a similar wavelength and plans to ease tensions, including sending border czar Tom Homan to Minnesota; Walz criticizes federal officials in a WSJ op-ed, while administration officials portray Pretti as a violent agitator, a claim at odds with some video evidence, highlighting a tense federal-state clash over immigration enforcement and public safety amid an ongoing federal probe.
