Minneapolis has become a war zone for federal immigration agents—JD Vance is marching straight into the breach.

On Thursday, the vice president will kick off his trip in Toledo, Ohio, spotlighting President Trump’s pledge to slash costs, boost wages, and unleash a manufacturing renaissance across the Midwest.

Then it’s on to Minneapolis—ground zero for anti-ICE violence, deliberate chaos, and Democrat-driven sanctuary policies. Vance will convene with community leaders, address the carnage of lawlessness, and stand shoulder-to-shoulder with ICE officers who face daily threats on our nation’s streets.

Minnesota’s Democratic leaders have turned a blind eye to brazen attacks on federal agents and open defiance of immigration law. Their policies have transformed Minneapolis into a haven for criminal illegal aliens and a staging ground for violent anarchists. Vance will call them out by name.

He’ll celebrate the indispensable work of ICE men and women who have removed dangerous offenders, shattered human-trafficking rings, and defended our borders when local politicians refused to do their duty.

In Toledo, Vance will detail the new Assistant Attorney General role at the Justice Department—charged with rooting out fraud in taxpayer-funded programs. This nationwide watchdog will start its work in Minnesota, where abuse of childcare, welfare, and unemployment benefits by foreign nationals has run unchecked.

This administration is done standing on the sidelines while Democrats sacrifice public safety for political correctness. Vance’s visits send a clear message: law and order are non-negotiable, criminals will be expelled, and hardworking Americans will get every dollar they deserve.

JD Vance’s mission is simple: restore security to our streets, accountability to our institutions, and prosperity to the American heartland. That mission starts now.
