Vance traveled to Minneapolis to hold a private roundtable with ICE leaders and local officials.

Vance says better cooperation with state and local authorities would calm tensions.

In response to reporter questions, Vance vouched for an internal agency memo that appears to authorize ICE entry into homes without court-approved warrants.

Vance also pushed back on claims that a five-year-old boy was detained to be used as bait to lure his immigrant father from a home for arrest.

Vance says agents were concerned about the child being left out in the cold.
