President’s border tsar meets with Minnesota governor Tim Walz in bid to calm tensions after two gun deaths caused by immigration troop
The move to install Mr Homan in charge of the operation in place of border patrol official Gregory Bovino, who sources said was leaving after having led most of Mr Trump’s crackdowns in Democratic-led cities, is part of a broader reset by the president to soften his administration’s aggressive posture in Minneapolis.
Some advisers are concerned Saturday’s killing of 37-year-old Alex Pretti by federal officers, which sparked national outrage, could derail Mr Trump’s immigration agenda.
