President Trump has softened his tone and signaled a rollback of the federal crackdown following the public outrage sparked by the fatal shooting of ICU nurse Alex Pretti. The White House is now pointing to progress after high-level discussions with Governor Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey, with both leaders describing the talks as “productive”. Border Patrol commander Greg Bovino exit expected and the transfer of command to Border Czar Tom Homan is also reported. The move is being seen as a strategic shift aimed at de-escalating tensions while still maintaining federal enforcement priorities. WATCH
