Conservatives are celebrating Donald Trump’s decision to dispatch border czar Tom Homan to Minnesota to oversee immigration enforcement operations in the Minneapolis area, in what was widely seen as an attempt to sideline Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem.

Trump’s decision comes just two days after a Border Patrol agent shot and killed 37-year-old Alex Pretti in Minneapolis. While Noem subsequently claimed that Pretti had “arrived at the scene to inflict maximum damage on individuals and kill law enforcement,” footage of the incident contradicts her description of it.

On Sunday, conservative radio host Erick Erickson suggested that Pretti’s death and tense atmosphere in the Gopher State were attributable to Noem’s leadership.

    If he’s an adult and in Trump’s cabinet he should be utilizing the 25 amendment, just like everyone in Biden’s admin and Trump’s first one should have.

    We haven’t had a single adult in any presidential administration for a decade now, and it’s showing.

    Just grifters who want to amass as much wealth from bribes as possible.
