00:00We've seen a big change here in the last couple of weeks.
00:04And it's all good changes.
00:08I'm also pleased to report that we're seeing a notable
00:11decrease on unlawful agitator activity here in Minneapolis and overall throughout the
00:16state. This is great news from Minnesota communities
00:19that have been adversely impacted by the lawlessness and chaos in the street.
00:24We have what we call here QRFs, Quick Response Force,
00:28security teams that get called out when ICE
00:31officers are out doing operations. If they get into trouble, if agitators get out of control,
00:35if there's a danger and public safety is at risk, these
00:39QRFs respond to help these officers get off
00:43the X and get out of that situation. I asked the day
00:47when I got here, I want to know what the QRFs call outs are,
00:51what their deployments are. I want to know every time a QRF is called out.
00:56The QRF deployments have dropped dramatically
00:59because we have less of that occurring,
01:01less of the agitator that crossed that line.
01:04That is a good thing. That is a win for everybody.
01:07Not just for the safety of the law enforcement officers,
01:09it's a win for this community.
01:14With that, and success that has been made
01:17arresting public safety threats and other priorities
01:19since this surge operation began,
01:21as well as the unprecedented levels
01:23of coordination we have obtained
01:25from state officials and local law enforcement,
01:27I have proposed,
01:29and President Trump has concurred,
01:30that this surge operation conclude.
01:36A significant drawdown has already been underway this week,
01:40and will continue through the next week.
01:45We have a lot of work to do across this country
01:47to remove public safety risk
01:51who shouldn't even be in this country.
01:54And to deliver on President Trump's promise
01:56for strong border security and mass deportation,
01:59law enforcement officers drawn down from this surge operation
02:02will either return to the duty station
02:04or be assigned elsewhere to achieve just that.
02:10We will continue to enforce Title A immigration law
02:13throughout this nation.
02:17Prioritizing national security threats
02:19and public safety risks makes sense.
02:21But I will continue to say over and over again,
02:24if you are here in the country illegally,
02:26you are not exempt from our immigration laws.
02:29If we encounter you,
02:30we will take appropriate enforcement action.
02:34For those that say we are backing down
02:37from immigration enforcement
02:38or the promise of mass deportations,
02:40you are simply wrong.
02:42Look at the data.
02:44Record number of arrests and deportations
02:46under President Trump's first year.
02:48And we will continue that effort.
02:52Prioritizing public safety threats
02:53and national security threats
02:54doesn't mean we forget about everybody else.
02:57We will take action on everybody else.
03:01That's just a stone cold fact.
03:04A small footprint of personnel will remain
03:07for a period of time to close out
03:08and transition full command and control
03:10back to the field office.
03:12As well as to ensure agitator activity
03:15continues to decline.
03:16And that state and local law enforcement
03:19continue to respond to ensure officer
03:21and community safety.
03:23Additionally,
03:24federal government personnel assigned to conduct
03:26criminal investigation into the agitators,
03:29as well as the personnel assigned here
03:31for the fraud investigations,
03:32will remain in place until the work is done.
03:37I will also remain on the ground for a little longer
03:39to oversee the drawdown of this operation
03:42and ensure its success.
03:45In closing, I want to thank the leadership
03:48and senior management that I've worked with
03:50for your efforts into these issues,
03:52determine deficiencies and challenges,
03:54present solutions and implement improvements
03:56that will benefit how operations are run
03:58and executed nationwide.
04:01God bless the men and women of ICE,
04:04the men and women of the Border Patrol.
04:06Appreciate everything you've done for us.
04:09Also with sincere gratitude,
04:11President Trump and I want to thank
04:12the men and women of ICE and CBP
04:13and partner agencies who have been assigned
04:16here during Operation Metro Surge.
04:17You achieved a great success for the Minnesota
04:19communities.
04:21Thank you to your families as well,
04:22because I know they sacrificed also.
04:25Thank you President Trump for your vision,
04:27as well as your support and confidence in these brave
04:29dedicated patriots that work hard
04:32to deliver on your strong commitment
04:33to law and order, public safety,
04:36prosperity for American communities.
04:38Today we have the most secure border
04:40in American history.
04:42We are seeing record numbers of people
04:44being arrested and deported.
04:46Your promise to make America safe again
04:48is being played out every day
04:50on the streets of this country.
04:52I've said it many times,
04:53I worked for six different presidents,
04:55ten different administrations.
04:56No one has done it better
04:58than President Trump.
05:01God bless this great country.
