such a large law enforcement presence is because we can't go into those jails to target those criminals.
And so we have to really sweep the city and target them in place using intelligence, using our case analysis and make sure that we're going after these individuals.
So we've arrested, in just the last five weeks alone, 2,000 illegal aliens.
That includes child pedophiles, multiple, I would say, scores.
In fact, multiple murders, known and suspected terrorists, multiple gang members.
But we also, in Minneapolis itself, of course, we've seen a scourge of fraud, $9 billion.
But we think that that's just the tip of the iceberg.
So our Homeland Security investigators are
are on the ground there.
We've had about 300.
They're not doing immigration enforcement.
They're really looking at this fraud and white-collar crime.
In addition, we have about 1,000-plus ERO, which is ICE enforcement, those members on the ground who are really sweeping the city there.
And as well, we are also doing immigration fraud, high-level investigations with USCIS, which is the arm of DHS that
gives out visas, gives out green cards, but also does audits for fraud, like we're seeing in Minneapolis.
Well, I think that everyone's going into their different camps, and instead of waiting and looking at the true facts on the ground, of course, immigration enforcement is polarizing, particularly to those on the left.
But the truth of the matter is, this was the mandate that President Trump was given when he was elected into office.
The American people saw that crime was surging.
If you look at Minneapolis alone, since Governor Walz became governor,
Homicides in Minneapolis have increased 50%, but I think when you look at this particular incident, of course, any loss of life is tragic, and we pray for the deceased and her family.
