U.S. Border Patrol commander Greg Bovino said on Tuesday that federal immigration operations in Minnesota were "lawful" and focused on public safety, rejecting criticism from local officials and police chiefs.

He also criticized Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey for his rhetoric. "Don’t fall victim to the heated rhetoric and those lies that are often spouted by, say, Mayor Frey. Mayor Frey actually told his police force to fight federal agents in the city. And you should have even seen the look on O’Brien’s face."

ICE Executive Associate Director for Enforcement and Removal Operations Marcos Charles urged Minnesota state and city leaders to cooperate with federal authorities and transfer detained undocumented immigrants to ICE custody.

“We are calling on Governor Walz and Mayor Frey to turn these criminal illegal aliens directly over to ICE to keep Minnesota residents in our community safe,” he said.
