Protesters swarm Tim Walz's office after he signals willingness to work with Trump

Protestors were seen gathering outside of Minnesota Governor Tim Walz’s office in the state capitol building on Tuesday afternoon, coming after Walz met with border czar Tom Homan and spoke with President Trump.

The crowd was heard shouting "justice delayed, justice denied," and held signs that included sayings such as "justice for Alex Pretti" and "f*ck ICE."

On Tuesday morning, Walz met with Homan, with the Minnesota official saying that the two agreed to "ongoing dialogue." Walz’s office said in a statement to NewsNation, "Governor Walz met with Tom Homan this morning and reiterated Minnesota’s priorities: impartial investigations into the Minneapolis shootings involving federal agents, a swift, significant reduction in the number of federal forces in Minnesota, and an end to the campaign of retribution against Minnesota."

The office added, "The Governor and Homan agreed on the need for an ongoing dialogue and will continue working toward those goals, which the President also agreed to yesterday. The Governor tasked the Minnesota Department of Public Safety as the primary liaison to Homan to ensure these goals are met."

Two fatal shootings involving anti-ICE agitators have taken place in Minneapolis in January, with the deaths of Renee Good, who rammed an ICE agent, and Alex Pretti, who was shot by Border Patrol after federal agents said he was armed. 

Walz and Trump participated in a call on Monday, with Walz writing in the aftermath, "I had a productive call with President Trump earlier today. I told him we need impartial investigations of the Minneapolis shootings involving federal agents, and that we need to reduce the number of federal agents in Minnesota. The President agreed to look into reducing the number of federal agents in Minnesota and to talk to DHS about ensuring the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension is able to conduct an independent investigation, as would ordinarily be the case."
