President Donald Trump has threatened to invoke the Insurrection Act and deploy troops to quell persistent protests against Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers in Minneapolis. Trump made the threat Thursday. A day earlier, a federal officer in the city shot and wounded a man who had attacked the officer with a shovel and broom handle. Minneapolis has been on edge since an ICE agent fatally shot Renee Good in the head. Trump has repeatedly threatened to invoke the rarely used 1807 law to deploy the U.S. military or federalize the National Guard for domestic law enforcement, over the objections of state governors.
