Trump Acknowledges Possible ICE Errors as DOJ Subpoenas Minnesota Officials

The action follows the fatal ICE shooting of unarmed Renee Good in Minneapolis, a case challenged by published video.

Overview

  • President Donald Trump called Good’s death a tragedy and said ICE officers sometimes make mistakes, marking his first public admission of possible errors in the operation.
  • The Justice Department issued grand-jury subpoenas to Governor Tim Walz, Attorney General Keith Ellison, and Mayors Jacob Frey and Kaohly Her seeking records on cooperation with federal immigration authorities since early 2025.
  • Officials said the subpoenas demand documents rather than personal appearances, and legal analysts noted the inquiry may raise constitutional concerns about protected political activity.
  • A federal judge last week curtailed ICE tactics in the region, ruling that peaceful protesters and motorists may not be arrested or dispersed with pepper spray.
  • Video from the shooting appears to contradict the administration’s initial self‑defense account, and some outlets report the FBI has not opened a probe into the shooter even as public protests and calls for accountability continue.
