Donald Trump has agreed to pull ICE agents out of Minnesota and allow local cops to investigate a protester's killing by federal agents, Tim Walz said.

The President held a phone call with the state's governor on Monday following the death of 37-year-old Alex Pretti, an ICU nurse who was shot dead by agents during protests against the immigration crackdown in Minneapolis on Saturday.

Walz's office said: 'The President agreed that he would talk to his Department of Homeland Security about ensuring the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension is able to conduct an independent investigation, as would ordinarily be the case.

'The President also agreed to look into reducing the number of federal agents in Minnesota and working with the state in a more coordinated fashion on immigration enforcement regarding violent criminals.'

Yeah. He may have said it, but does he mean it?

I call bullshit. This is a 'media placation move' to get them to be more 'equitable' in their reporting.
