The Trump administration has pointed to that fraud as the reason for its surge of federal agents to the state.

The Minneapolis police chief said Thompson's resignation will deal a major blow to that fraud investigation.

Meanwhile.

Tensions are still high on the streets in Minneapolis, where federal immigration agents have continued to carry out aggressive operations.

Videos verified by The Times show them smashing car windows, deploying tear gas and detaining U.S.

As part of the crackdown, agents have arrested dozens of refugees who entered the country lawfully.

According to lawyers and immigration rights advocates, the group is mainly from Somalia and includes children.

As part of their immigration process, they'd previously passed extensive security screenings and background checks.

Most of the detainees have now been flown from Minnesota to facilities in Texas.

Federal officials did not respond to a request for comment, but the Trump administration has vowed to re-examine the status of thousands of refugees.

Now, three quick updates on the Trump administration's foreign policy.

Today at the White House, Vice President Jadie Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio will sit down with the foreign ministers of Greenland and Denmark as the administration has ramped up its threats to take over the territory.

Ahead of the meeting, Greenland's prime minister reiterated that the island is not for sale and said his people want to stick with Denmark, which currently oversees the territory, and the European Union.

Also, in Gaza, as soon as today, the U.S.

could announce a committee of Palestinians who will be put in charge of running daily life there.

Under the U.S.

plan for Gaza, that committee would be apolitical and mostly focused on providing public services.
