Obama condemns Minnesota ICE surge as un-American

Former President Barack Obama criticized the Minnesota ICE operation known as Metro Surge, calling the deployment of over 2,000 agents and tactics like pulling people from homes and tear-gassing crowds rogue and dangerous. He praised community resilience and peaceful action as the country’s real values, while noting the solution rests with the American people. A drawdown of agents was announced amid concerns about the operation and its guidelines.
