Donald Trump is pulling his top Border Patrol official in Minneapolis out of the city, as scrutiny over the administration's actions in the city turns into outrage.

Trump says government will ‘de-escalate’ in Minnesota following Pretti shooting

Getty Images President Donald Trump said his administration was "going to de-escalate a little bit" in Minnesota, after the second fatal shooting of a US citizen by federal immigration officers there. "Bottom line, it was terrible. Both of them were terrible," he said in a Fox News interview on Tuesday. In early January Renee Good was fatally shot by an immigration officer, followed by Alex Pretti, who was killed after being stopped by border agents this past weekend.

Wall Street cashes in as Donald Trump ‘chickens out’ on Greenland

Donald Trump has retreated on his ambitions for Greenland, instead announcing an unspecified "framework of a future deal" for the island.

"This solution, if consummated, will be a great one for the United States of America, and all NATO Nations," Trump wrote on his social media platform Truth Social.
