ICE Arrests 150 People After DHS Surges 2,000 Agents to Minnesota

HeadlineJan 07, 2026

The Department of Homeland Security says it arrested 150 people Monday in Minneapolis following a surge of 2,000 ICE agents to Minnesota to probe alleged fraud at child care facilities. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem accompanied ICE officers during an arrest. In the video, she tells the handcuffed man, “You will be held accountable for your crimes.” Minnesota’s Democratic Governor Tim Walz said that the ICE officers were not cooperating with local authorities and were simply a “show for the cameras.”
