US Edition'Unify.' Melania Trump calls for peace in Minneapolis in rare statement
Melania Trump called for unity and peaceful protests after two fatal federal agent shootings sparked unrest; over 3,000 immigration agents involved in enforcement operations, officials said.
- On Jan. 27, First Lady Melania Trump issued a rare political statement calling for unity and urged to `Make it peaceful and without riots` on Fox & Friends.
- After ICE descended on Minneapolis in December, protests intensified following the Jan. 7 and Jan. 24 shootings of Renee Nicole Good and Alex Pretti, amid a Department of Homeland Security operation involving 3,000 agents.
- Verified video evidence appears to contradict the official account, as Department of Homeland Security and Border Patrol said agents fired defensive shots while Alex Pretti held only a phone and was pinned without pulling a weapon.
- Top Minnesota officials said some federal agents will leave Jan. 27, and White House border czar Tom Homan was dispatched to oversee enforcement, while Gov. Tim Walz called for impartial investigations after a productive call with Trump.
- Legal battles and public outrage have followed, with more than 3,000 detained undocumented immigrants and judges ordering ICE director to explain due process violations.
