Republicans are increasingly worried about immigration enforcement becoming a political problem in the upcoming midterm elections. Concerns have grown after two people were killed by federal agents during President Donald Trump’s crackdown in Minneapolis. Although few Republicans are willing to publicly break with Trump, criticism is mounting. Congress faces a funding deadline this week, and Democrats are ready to block money for Homeland Security. Some Republicans, like Sen. Thom Tillis, are urging a change in direction. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem is facing criticism, with some calling for her resignation. The situation is escalating as Republicans try to navigate the political fallout.
