Trump’s threats raise fears in Minnesota’s Somali community

Season 2025 Episode 339 | 7m 09s

President Trump has taken aim at Minnesota’s Somali community, with xenophobic remarks and calls for their removal from the U.S. It coincides with a new ICE operation in the Twin Cities targeting Somali immigrants. Special correspondent Fred de Sam Lazaro reports on the community’s response and how we arrived at this point, including a sweeping fraud scandal that has gripped the state.
