This is smart law enforcement, not less law enforcement.
Citing improved cooperation between the feds and the local law enforcement in Minnesota, Border Czar Tom Holman revealed that the administration is calling a bit of an audible as it works to find and deport criminal illegal aliens in Minnesota.
Holman insisting that with over 2,000 plus agents still on the ground, a drawdown of about 700 people doesn't mean a pullback.
Holman credits the newfound cooperation from local counties, which are now turning over jailed illegal immigrants to ICE instead of just releasing them.
Meanwhile, President Trump said he approves of the new approach, noting that a softer touch is possible while still being tough.

My goal with the support of President Trump is to achieve a complete drawdown and end this surge as soon as we can.
But that is largely contingent upon the end of the illegal and threatening activities against ICE and its federal partners that we're seeing in the community.
More officers taking custody of criminal aliens directly from the jails means less officers on the street doing criminal operations.
This is smart law enforcement, not less law enforcement.
It's safer for the community, safer for the officers.
and safer for the alien.
We will not draw down on personnel providing security and responding to hostile incidents until we see a change in what's happening with the lawlessness of the impeding and interfering and assaulting of ICE and Border Patrol officers.
The roadblocks being set up, you're not going to stop ICE.
The only thing you're doing is irritating your community and want to go get groceries or pick the children.
Homan said he's looking to end the operation, but... That depends on people that want to intimidate and interfere and put hands on ICE officers.
