Trump Administration Faces Legal Challenges Over Immigration Enforcement, While Former Prince Andrew Relocates
The Trump administration faced legal challenges over its immigration enforcement policies in Minnesota, while in other news, former Prince Andrew moved out of his royal residence.
In Minnesota, educators filed a federal lawsuit Wednesday seeking to restrict federal agents from conducting immigration enforcement near schools and bus stops, according to The New York Times. The lawsuit, brought by Education Minnesota, a teachers union group, and the school districts in Duluth and Fridley, a Minneapolis suburb, names the Department of Homeland Security and other federal agencies and officials as defendants. The education groups accuse the Trump administration of unlawfully sending federal agents to schools and bus stops in Minnesota, making arrests near schools and creating an atmosphere of fear for native-born citizens, naturalized citizens and legally present immigrants alike. The lawsuit challenges a Trump administration policy that rescinded federal protections for these sensitive locations.
President Trump addressed the situation in an interview with NBC News, stating he made the decision to pull hundreds of federal law enforcement agents from Minneapolis after the fatal shootings of two city residents last month, according to Fox News. Trump noted the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) could "use a little bit of a softer touch." White House border czar Tom Homan announced earlier Wednesday that 700 federal agents would be departing the Twin Cities, with the end goal of a "complete drawdown."
Meanwhile, in the United Kingdom, Prince Andrew, formerly known as Prince Andrew, has moved out of his royal residence, Windsor's Royal Lodge, ABC News confirmed. Mountbatten-Windsor, the younger brother of Britain's King Charles III, is no longer living at Royal Lodge, a 30-room mansion on the grounds of Windsor Estate, where he has lived for over 20 years. Mountbatten-Windsor will now live permanently on the king's privately owned Sandringham Estate in Norfolk, England, over 100 miles away from his previous home. Buckingham Palace has not commented on Mountbatten-Windsor.
