Caption: Trump Pushes Power Limits as Minnesota Resists Immigration Crackdown. Tensions are escalating in Minnesota as President Donald Trump presses ahead with a hardline immigration crackdown, testing the limits of federal power - According to BBC. With up to 1,500 troops reportedly on standby, protests have intensified in Minneapolis and St Paul, where residents say even migrants without criminal records – and some US citizens – are being detained. Local volunteers now patrol their own streets, tracking ICE agents to document arrests. One observer, using the pseudonym Sunshine, says it’s about protecting neighbours from what she calls racial profiling. Clashes have erupted, prompting a federal judge to restrict how ICE can police peaceful protests. The crisis deepened after a fatal shooting by an ICE agent, now under FBI investigation. As Trump threatens to invoke the Insurrection Act, Minnesota finds itself at the centre of a growing national confrontation.
