Per BBC Gov Walz said his call with Trump was productive

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz says his phone call with President Donald Trump on Monday was "productive".

During the call, Walz "made the case that we need impartial investigations of the Minneapolis shootings involving federal agents, and that we need to reduce the number of federal agents in Minnesota", the governor says.

Walz says that Trump agreed to "talk to his Department of Homeland Security about ensuring" that state police are allowed to participate in the shooting investigations.

"The President also agreed to look into reducing the number of federal agents in Minnesota and working with the state in a more coordinated fashion on immigration enforcement regarding violent criminals," he says.
