President Donald Trump’s border czar, Tom Homan, announced Thursday that Operation Metro Surge is coming to an end in Minnesota. Homan told reporters the operation successfully reduced threats to public safety by detaining undocumented immigrants with criminal records. He cited "unprecedented levels of coordination" between state officials and local law enforcement as a key factor in the decision.

The conclusion of this controversial surge comes after weeks of protests in Minneapolis and other cities over ICE’s tactics, as well as tense congressional negotiations over funding for the Department of Homeland Security.

Jonathan Fahey, an attorney and former acting ICE director, joins us to explain what led to Homan’s decision, why he views the operation as a success, and why he believes Democratic demands to reform ICE are impractical.
