and disruption and trauma the federal government is raining down upon our communities. Two to three thousand armed agents of the federal government have been deployed to Minnesota. Armed, masked, under-trained ICE agents are going door to door, ordering people to point out where their neighbors of color live.

Woman shot dead by US immigration agent

The victim of this incident was 37-year-old Renee Good. Now officials say that she was not the target of immigration enforcement activity at the time. How can there be two very, very different characterizations of the events that took place, when even the video evidence that you suggest, it can be interpreted surely in only one way, no?

Well, that's right. There are two starkly contrasting accounts of what happened, Chris. The mayor of Minneapolis, Jacob Fry, has accused those federal agents of sowing chaos in the city. The Minnesota Democratic governor, Tim Walz, blamed the incident on a federal administration that seeks to, as he put it, ferment fear, headlines and conflict. And Donald Trump weighed in as well, claiming...

Mr. Trump goes on, these incidents are happening is because the radical left is threatening, assaulting and targeting our law enforcement officers and ICE agents on a daily basis. But it's true that hundreds of immigration enforcement agents have been sent to the state of Minnesota in the last month.

As part of this nationwide crackdown brought into effect by the Trump administration on illegal immigration has taken place. And another 2,000 federal agents are due to arrive this very week in the state, that state of Minnesota. And that has led to tension with local residents, as a result of which the governor, Tim Walz, has put the National Guard on standby in the event that protests break out there.

The White House says that Mr. Trump and his advisers are considering what it calls a range of options in that regard, including the possible use of military force. But Wall Street Journal newspaper here says that the Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, informed lawmakers on Capitol Hill that the Trump administration would much rather buy Greenland

US-Venezuela: Trump's largest warship arrives in Latin America region

Well, I think it suggests that he believes he has to sue Anker in order to protect his reputation, and that he is determined to treat the BBC no differently than the American media, despite the fact that it is a foreign broadcaster. He says he believes that he has an obligation, in his words, to sue, because the Panorama program had butchered, I use his words again there, his speech, leaving the BBC alone.

and asserted that his client's intention to sue the corporation for no less than a billion dollars was real if he didn't receive a retraction, an apology and compensation by this Friday.

Although one key thing that his lawyers would have to prove if the case came to court was that the documentary had been available to watch here in the United States. And they would also have to show that the president suffered significant financial harm as a result of the Panorama broadcast. And of course in order to get the sort of payout information,
