Hi, everyone. It's 4 o'clock in New York. What Donald Trump and his administration started, the people of Minneapolis have finished.

Donald Trump's borders are Tom Homan announcing today that the deployment of thousands of federal agents in Minneapolis is coming to an end.

That announcement comes after more than two months in which Minneapolis in the entire country

witnessed scenes of brutality by federal agents on the streets of an American city and including

the shootings of three people, including the killing of Renee Nicole Good and Alex Pretty.

American people also witnessed a city, an American

city rising up in protest, inspiring a nationwide outcry and backlash to Donald Trump

bigger than anything else he has endured in his second term as president. As with anything,

Donald Trump or his administration says, the news of a drawdown is being taken with a grand assault by many in Minneapolis.

The president of the Minneapolis City Council had this to say, quote, I will believe it when I see it, end quote.

But other officials are sounding a little more optimistic that the brutal federal presence may actually be coming to an end.

Minneapolis mayor, Jacob Fry, said this in a statement, quote,

they thought they could break us, but a love for our neighbors and a resolve to endure

can outlast an occupation.

These patriots of Minneapolis are showing that it's not just about resistance.

Standing with our neighbors is deeply American.

And here's Minnesota's governor,

Tim Wals. Minnesotans never wavered. And for that, I will be forever grateful. I think it's probably safe to say the rest of the country will be forever grateful because they showed what it means

to stand up for what's right, to stand up for the true principles of this country, to stand

with the Constitution and to stand with human decency. And so I want to note that the announcement today by Mr. Holman, we are cautiously optimistic,

as we've said, and that this surge of untrained, aggressive federal agents are going to leave Minnesota.

As the governor noted there, the acts of bravery by the people of Minneapolis, including the tens of thousands of people who went out to protest day after day in bitter cold temperatures have inspired a nationwide movement.
