周一，[总统唐纳德·特朗普]在去年年底明尼苏达州联邦移民执法人员大规模增派行动后，首次显露出退缩迹象——他撤换了当地镇压行动的负责人，并暗示愿意与该州的民主党民选官员展开合作。
然而，这些举措——正值人们对亚历克斯·普雷蒂（Alex Pretti）被枪杀事件的反对声浪不断升级，且特朗普政府曾试图将这名ICU护士错误地贴上“国内恐怖分子”标签——并未阻止政府继续试图转移责任，这引发了人们对实地行动究竟会发生多大变化的质疑。
周二可能将迎来第一次考验。三位熟悉相关讨论的消息人士告诉CNN，在特朗普派遣边境事务负责人汤姆·霍曼（Tom Homan）主持引发明尼阿波利斯动荡的实地执法行动后，边境巡逻队主管格雷戈里·博维诺（Gregory Bovino）及其部分特工预计最早将于周二离开该市。撤换博维诺可能预示着政策将偏离他所倡导的强硬路线。

领导层的变动让美国国土安全部的一些人松了口气，他们认为霍曼凭借多年联邦执法经验，比前负责人更胜任。这一变动也得到了国会山共和党领袖的赞扬。
一位熟悉对话的人士表示，甚至在周六普雷蒂被枪杀引发对不断扩大的影响的紧急应对之前，包括特朗普在内的一些白宫官员就已对围绕政府移民政策的公众叙事感到不满。
周一，特朗普与明尼苏达州州长蒂姆·瓦尔兹（Tim Walz）通了电话，搁置了与这位民主党人的长期争执，推动加强协调，并考虑从该州撤出至少部分联邦特工。
“这是一次非常愉快的通话，事实上，我们似乎想法一致，”特朗普在Truth Social上写道，他最近几个月曾斥责瓦尔兹为“腐败”和“严重无能”。

当天晚些时候，特朗普还与明尼阿波利斯市长安德鲁·雅各布·弗雷（Jacob Frey）进行了通话，他称这次对话“非常愉快”，并在事后写道“取得了很大进展！”
综合来看，这些举动是白宫首次公开正视这一行动所导致的后果——行动中每天都与抗议者发生对峙，暴力场面甚至让部分政府官员和特朗普的亲密盟友感到不安。
“你会犯错，会有混乱，但我认为[国土安全部]可能没有尽到最大努力，”倡导有限移民政策的移民研究中心主任马克·克里科里安（Mark Krikorian）批评了将普雷蒂迅速定性为袭击者的做法，“这是在有实际证据的情况下才会说的话。”

在普雷蒂被枪杀后，熟悉相关对话的人士表示，共和党议员和盟友在公开和私下场合都对政府提出了反对意见，警告称危机不断加深可能破坏白宫更广泛的移民政策，并给共和党造成无法弥补的损害。
除了对实地可能发生更多暴力的担忧加剧外，消息人士还表示，共和党人发泄称，继续此类执法行动将在政治上适得其反——不仅会掩盖他们试图扩大的欺诈丑闻（该丑闻最初促使政府向明尼苏达州增派联邦特工），还会进一步复杂化特朗普其余议程。事实上，参议院民主党人现在威胁要反对国土安全部的一项拨款法案，这引发了几天内再次发生不可预测的政府停摆的可能性。
此后，包括特朗普坚定盟友在内的几名共和党议员呼吁对枪击事件展开调查，一些人甚至推动举行国会听证会。
“政治家、抗议者和执法人员都有责任缓和明尼苏达州的局势，”南达科他州议员达斯蒂·约翰逊（Dusty Johnson）在X平台上写道，“与任何涉及官员的枪击事件一样，这需要彻底调查。”
政府官员周一也明显改变了对普雷蒂的初始描述——即他是一名向联邦特工挥舞枪支的袭击者——尽管他们仍坚持认为是普雷蒂“引发了致命冲突”。
白宫新闻秘书卡罗琳·莱维特（Karoline Leavitt）表示，特朗普并未将普雷蒂定性为“国内恐怖分子”，但她拒绝解释为何包括国土安全部部长克里斯蒂·诺姆（Kristi Noem）在内的其他政府官员声称他符合这一定义。她强调，联邦各机构已就此枪击事件展开调查。

但莱维特仍指责民主党人和当地抗议者制造了易燃环境，导致本月早些时候联邦特工开枪打死了雷尼·古德（Renee Good），现在又导致普雷蒂死亡。
“这场悲剧是由于明尼苏达州民主党领导人蓄意和敌对的抵抗行为造成的，”莱维特特别点名批评了瓦尔兹和弗雷。
试图在缓和政府言论的同时避免直接承担责任，凸显了其面临的挑战——这种动荡局面可能吞噬特朗普的移民议程，并进一步削弱他在这一曾是其最大政治优势问题上的地位。
近几个月的民调显示，对美国移民和海关执法局（ICE）及其实地策略的反对情绪不断上升，甚至在那些支持政府最初南部边境安全举措的人群中也是如此。
自雷尼·古德被枪杀事件引发广泛关注后，这些数字进一步恶化——很少有人支持政府关于这是“适当使用武力”的说法。本月早些时候发布的一项CNN民调显示，56%的受访者认为这是“不适当的”，仅有26%认为是“适当的”。
熟悉对话的人士表示，在特朗普的核心圈子和国会山，一些共和党人认为任命霍曼是为了稳定一个在诺姆和博维诺领导下失控且适得其反的行动。

“这是一个积极的进展——我希望这能降低紧张局势，恢复明尼苏达州的秩序，”参议院多数党领袖约翰·图恩（John Thune）在X平台上写道。
作为ICE的资深官员，霍曼一直倡导对非法移民采取强硬态度。但与博维诺主导的、导致与抗议者发生冲突的大规模扫荡行动不同，霍曼通常主张更专注于针对性行动。
霍曼抵达明尼苏达州后，计划与瓦尔兹和弗雷会面，但目前尚不清楚实地情况会有哪些变化。白宫表示希望州和地方官员在驱逐无证移民方面提供更多合作，而瓦尔兹和弗雷则坚称他们已经在与联邦政府合作。
不过，盟友们表示，霍曼最紧迫的任务将是缓和数周来积累的实地紧张局势——而这些紧张局势现在正引起越来越多反对特朗普及其驱逐行动的民众的关注。
“从某种意义上说，每一天都是选举日——你不能说我们在这个平台上获胜了，现在就可以在未来两年为所欲为，”克里科里安表示，“如果人们不喜欢，你就得继续说服他们。”

White House shows first signs of retreat as backlash grows over Minnesota killing

[President Donald Trump] on Monday showed his first signs of retreat since surging federal immigration agents in Minnesota late last year — replacing the leader of the crackdown on the ground and signaling new willingness to cooperate with the state’s Democratic elected officials.
But the moves — which came amid an effort to contain the backlash over the fatal shooting of Alex Pretti and Trump officials’ early efforts to falsely brand the ICU nurse as a “domestic terrorist” — didn’t stop the administration from continuing to try to shift blame, sparking questions about how much would change on the ground.
The first test could come Tuesday. Border Patrol chief Gregory Bovino and some of his agents are now expected to leave the city as soon as then, three sources familiar with the discussions told CNN, after Trump dispatched border czar Tom Homan to run the on-the-ground enforcement operation that has roiled Minneapolis. Sidelining Bovino could herald a move away from the heavy-handed approach that he had encouraged.

The leadership change came as a relief to some at the Department of Homeland Security, who view Homan as a more experienced hand given his years in federal law enforcement. It also won praise from GOP leaders on Capitol Hill.
Some White House officials, including Trump, had grown dissatisfied with the public narrative surrounding the administration’s immigration efforts even before Pretti’s killing on Saturday sparked a scramble to contain the widening fallout, a person familiar with the conversations said.
On Monday, Trump spoke with Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, setting aside his long-running feud with the Democrat to push for greater coordination and weigh potentially pulling at least some federal agents out of the state.
“It was a very good call, and we, actually, seemed to be on a similar wavelength,” Trump wrote in a Truth Social post about the governor he had derided in recent months as “corrupt” and “grossly incompetent.”

Later in the day, he also spoke with Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey in what he called a “very good” conversation, writing afterward that “lots of progress is being made!”
Taken together, the moves represented the first time the White House publicly reckoned with an operation that has resulted in daily confrontations with protesters and violent scenes that have unsettled even some administration officials and close Trump allies.
“You’re going to have mistakes, you’re going to have messiness, but I think [Homeland Security] probably hasn’t handled it as well as it could have,” said Mark Krikorian, executive director of the Center for Immigration Studies, which advocates for limited immigration, criticizing the rush in particular to cast Pretti as the aggressor. “That’s the kind of thing you say when you have the actual evidence.”

In the wake of Pretti’s killing, Republican lawmakers and allies raised objections to the administration in both public and private, people familiar with the conversations said, warning the deepening crisis threatened to undermine the White House’s broader immigration efforts and cause irreparable damage to the party.
Even beyond the intensifying fears of more violence on the ground, the people familiar said, Republicans vented that continuing such enforcement would backfire politically — overshadowing their efforts to amplify the fraud scandal that prompted the administration to surge federal agents into Minnesota in the first place, and further complicating the rest of Trump’s agenda. Indeed, Senate Democrats have now threatened to oppose a funding bill for the Department of Homeland Security, raising the prospect of another unpredictable government shutdown in a matter of days.
Several GOP lawmakers, including ardent Trump allies, have since called for investigations into the shooting, with some pushing for congressional hearings as well.
“Politicians, protesters, and law enforcement all have an obligation to deescalate the situation in Minnesota,” Rep. Dusty Johnson of South Dakota wrote on X. “As with any officer-involved shooting, this demands a thorough investigation.”
Administration officials on Monday also shifted notably away from their initial portrayal of Pretti as an attacker who brandished a gun at federal agents — though they maintained that he had invited the fatal encounter.
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said that Trump had not characterized Pretti as a domestic terrorist, even as she declined to explain why other administration officials — including Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem — had claimed he fit the definition. She emphasized that various federal agencies have since begun investigations into the shooting.

But Leavitt still faulted Democrats and local protesters for creating the combustible environment that led to federal agents shooting Renee Good earlier this month, and now Pretti.
“This tragedy occurred as a result of a deliberate and hostile resistance by Democrat leaders in Minnesota,” Leavitt said, specifically naming Walz and Frey.
The attempt to moderate the administration’s rhetoric while still avoiding direct culpability underscored the challenge it faces in managing a volatile situation that threatens to consume Trump’s immigration agenda and further dent his standing on an issue that had once been his greatest strength.
Polling in recent months has found growing disapproval of Immigration and Customs Enforcement and its tactics on the ground, even among those who supported the administration’s initial efforts to secure the southern border.
Those numbers have only worsened since the fatal shooting of Good, which garnered widespread attention among Americans — relatively few of whom sided with the administration’s contention it was a proper use of force. A CNN poll published earlier this month showed 56% of those surveyed saw it instead as “inappropriate,” while just 26% viewed it as “appropriate.”
Within Trump’s circle and on Capitol Hill, some Republicans viewed Homan’s appointment as an effort to stabilize an operation that had spiraled out of control and grown counterproductive under Noem and Bovino, the people familiar with the conversations said.

“This is a positive development — one that I hope leads to turning down the temperature and restoring order in Minnesota,” Senate Majority Leader John Thune wrote on X.
A veteran ICE official, Homan has advocated a strident approach to illegal immigration. But rather than the broad sweeps overseen by Bovino that have led to clashes with protesters, Homan has generally favored a greater focus on more targeted operations.
Homan is set to meet with both Walz and Frey once he arrives in Minnesota, though it’s unclear what might change on the ground. The White House has indicated that it wants greater cooperation from state and local officials in deporting undocumented immigrants. Walz and Frey have insisted they’re already working with the federal government.
The most immediate task facing Homan, though, allies said, will be easing tensions on the ground that have accumulated for weeks — and have now drawn the scrutiny of a nation increasingly turning against Trump and his deportation campaign.
“Every day is Election Day in a sense — you can’t just say we won on this platform and now we can do whatever we want for the next two years,” Krikorian said. “If people don’t like it, you’ve got to keep persuading them.”
