White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said in a Monday press briefing that the US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) would be pulled from supporting Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents in Minnesota if lawmakers in the state, such as Governor Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey, implement "common sense cooperative measures."

Leavitt noted a Monday morning phone call that Trump had with Walz, during which he "outlined a clear and simple path to restoring law and order in Minnesota."



"Number one: Governor Walz, Mayor Frey, and all Democrat leaders should turn over all criminal illegal aliens currently incarcerated in their prisons and jails to federal authorities, along with any illegal aliens with active warrants or known criminal histories for immediate deportation," Leavitt said, outlining a plan released by Trump on Sunday evening.



"Number two, state and local law enforcement must agree to turn over all illegal aliens who are arrested by local police," she continued. "And then, thirdly, local police must assist federal law enforcement in apprehending and detaining illegal aliens who are wanted for crimes, especially violent crimes."

"If Governor Walz and Mayor Frey implement these common-sense cooperative measures that I will add have already been implemented in nearly every single other state across the country, Customs and Border Patrol will not be needed to support ICE on the group in Minnesota. ICE and local law enforcement can peacefully work together, as they are efficiently doing in so many other states and jurisdictions."

In his post on Sunday outlining the plan, Trump wrote, "All of these requests are rooted in COMMON SENSE, and will provide the best possible circumstances to, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN! The Trump Administration is standing by, and waiting for ANY Democrat to do the right thing, and work with us on these important matters of MAKING AMERICA SAFE like it is in all sections of our Country where we are, together with Local Leadership, participating and involved."
