Trump Caves in Minnesota as Massive Protests Spread
About this episode
Popok reports on Trump succumbing to public outrage and the changed political calculus following the execution of Alex Pretti, a US Citizen, on the streets of Minneapolis by Border Patrol, caught on video. It's now a battle between Trump's chief of staff Susie Wiles to get Trump to get out of Minnesota, and Steven Miller his immigration policy czar and hardliner to get him to stay. And it looks like Wiles is winning with new reporting that Trump called Rupert Murdoch's WSJ for a fast inverview before sending Border Czar Tom Hollman to Minnesota to clean up Trump's mess.
