Trump Accuses Walz, Omar of Stoking Anti-ICE Protests To Hide Fraud

Omar has also opposed the ICE actions, saying they have caused fear in immigrant communities and raised concerns about civil rights. She has defended the protests as expressions of public concern and called for an independent review of the enforcement activity.

Trump’s comments come as demonstrations against ICE continue in parts of Minnesota and as political debate intensifies over immigration enforcement, public safety, and government oversight.

U.S. Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche told Fox News the duo’s anti-ICE rhetoric was teetering on a federal crime.

“When the governor or the mayor threaten our officers, when the mayor suggests that he’s encouraging citizens to call 911 when they see ICE officers, that is very close to a federal crime,” Blanche said.

Bondi added on X, “A reminder to all those in Minnesota: No one is above the law.”

Walz responded to the news on Friday by accusing the Trump administration of “weaponizing the justice system.”
