Summary

This morning we’re continuing to follow the fallout after multiple federal shootings in Minneapolis, first Renée Good and then Alex Pretti. Both were killed by federal immigration agents, and the pushback is now coming from even within the Republican Party. Public outrage is growing, with protests spreading and polls showing increasing support for reining in ICE and ending aggressive federal enforcement. The Trump administration is visibly shifting tactics, dispatching Border Czar Tom Homan to Minnesota and sidelining some of the officials who defended the actions of agents, even as credibility questions mount. We’ll break down what this means for MAGA’s agenda, whether this growing rift could fracture the party, and the central question everyone is asking...will there ever be accountability for these atrocious acts?
