Minneapolis is bracing for another tense chapter.
Why? Because the Trump administration says it’s sending “hundreds more” federal officers into the city.
Just days after Renee Nicole Good, 37, was shot and killed by an ICE agent.
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem says the move is about safety.
“If people impede our operations, that’s a crime,” she warned, promising swift consequences.
The extra officers are expected to arrive within days.
The deployment comes as protests swell nationwide. Tens of thousands marched in Minneapolis over the weekend.
With similar anti-ICE demonstrations erupting in New York, Seattle, Austin, and Los Angeles.
Investigation Sparks Divide
Mayor Jacob Frey called the Minneapolis rally peaceful, even as police confirmed 31 arrests across two nights.
At the heart of the unrest is a sharp dispute over what happened. Federal officials insist the ICE agent acted in self-defence.
Noem has even described Good’s actions as “domestic terrorism.” Frey strongly disagrees.
“Anybody can see this victim was not a domestic terrorist,” he told CNN, saying she appeared to be trying to escape.
Democratic Senator Tina Smith accused the White House of a cover-up — a claim the administration flatly denies.
With the FBI investigating and Minnesota launching its own inquiry, one question looms.
Will more badges calm the streets — or only deepen the divide?
