Federal immigration enforcement in Minnesota, part of Operation Metro Surge, has sparked intense backlash after multiple fatal shootings involving federal agents, drawing protests and political criticism. Senator Amy Klobuchar blasted the expanded presence of ICE and Border Patrol, calling the operation a “shock and awe public spectacle” driven by figures like Kristi Noem and Gregory Bovino and demanded ICE leave Minnesota.

Federal guidance now directs ICE to avoid protester engagement and focus on criminal targets, while some agents and commanders begin leaving Minneapolis amid tensions. Critics argue the surge undermines civil liberties and constitutional rights, heightening calls for accountability and reform.
