The strain was evident when Trump made a leadership change by sending his top border adviser to Minnesota to take charge of the immigration crackdown. Immigration enforcement operations and confrontations with activists continued Wednesday in Minneapolis and St. Paul. A group of protesters blew whistles and pointed out federal officers in a vehicle on a north Minneapolis street. The enforcement extended to the city’s Ecuadorian consulate, where a federal law enforcement officer tried to enter before being blocked by employees. Meanwhile, Trump said in a social media post that the mayor was “PLAYING WITH FIRE” by not participating in the enforcement efforts.
