Trump Criticizes U.S. Immigration Policy, Singles Out Somali Arrivals

Former U.S. President Donald Trump has sharply criticized American immigration policy, stating he does not want people from Somalia entering the country. His comments come amid reports that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is preparing a large-scale operation in Minnesota, home to a significant Somali community. Speaking at a political event, Trump used harsh language to describe some immigrants. He claimed the United States will "go the wrong way if we keep taking in garbage into our country." Federal immigration officials are reportedly planning a major enforcement action in Minnesota. The operation would focus on arresting and deporting individuals who have final orders for removal from the country. Many of those targeted are expected to be of Somali descent. The former president's remarks and the reported ICE plans have heightened anxiety within immigrant communities. Advocacy groups are preparing legal support and warning residents of their rights.
