Homan argued that allowing ICE into jails would let agents arrest suspects in a controlled,safe environment rather than searching neighborhoods,and he <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >criticized sanctuary city\/state policies<\/a> that refuse to hold people for federal immigration pickup. The agency has reportedly sent about 3,000 personnel to the Twin Cities after a large fraud inquiry tied mainly to Somali immigrants, and Homan said ICE has arrested roughly 2,400 people, including individuals accused of serious crimes. Tensions in Minneapolis have risen following recent shootings involving ICE personnel and protests against federal immigration operations. Rep. Tony Gonzales,on a call with homan,framed the events as an inflection point for support of law enforcement and urged backing for ICE.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Tom Homan offers to pull ICE from Minneapolis &lsquo;real quick&rsquo; upon access to jails<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_2473280\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>President Donald Trump&rsquo;s border czar, Tom Homan, said he would consider pulling <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/ICE\/\">Immigration and Customs Enforcement<\/a> officers out of <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/minneapolis\/\">Minneapolis<\/a> if Minnesota Democrats allow the agency access to its jails.<\/p>\n<p>Homan, the former acting director of ICE, said on Thursday evening that Gov. <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/tim-walz\/\">Tim Walz <\/a>(D-MN) and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey&rsquo;s demands that federal agents and officers leave their communities could be resolved &ldquo;real quick&rdquo; if the city agrees to let ICE into its jails so that it may take custody of illegal immigrants with criminal records in a safe setting.<\/p>\n<div class=\"recommended-stories\">\n<h2>Recommended Stories<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/white-house\/3847973\/what-is-the-insurrection-act-trump-national-guard-troop-deployment\/\">What is the Insurrection Act, the law at the center of the debate over Trump deploying the National Guard?<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/white-house\/4419819\/trump-threatens-minnesota-insurrection-act-second-federal-shooting-reignites-protesters\/\">Trump threatens Minnesota with Insurrection Act after second federal shooting reignites protesters<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/crime\/4419671\/federal-officer-shooting-venezuelan-minneapolis\/\">Federal officer shoots illegal Venezuelan immigrant in Minneapolis, DHS says<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"article-paywall\">\n<p>&ldquo;Minnesota, the mayor and the governor, could fix this real quick,&rdquo; Homan said during a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/swing-district-dem-says-partys-stimulus-spending-drove-inflation\/\" title=\"Swing-District Dem Says Party\u2019s Stimulus Spending Drove Inflation\">telephone town hall<\/a> with Rep.
