  "account": "In Minneapolis, immigration agents amassed at the Bishop Henry Whipple Federal Building for a prolonged deportation operation. Protests erupted, with two individuals losing their lives in the city's streets prior to Trump's intervention. The immigration debate has introduced a new division in Minnesota's Democratic Senate primary, pitting establishment-backed U.S. Rep. Angie Craig against more progressive Lt. Gov. Peggy Flanagan. Craig's vote backing tighter enforcement measures in 2025 has become a contentious issue, as she has since expressed regret over her decision. Flanagan has emphasized this divide during the campaign, highlighting Craig's earlier vote while touting her own progressive credentials.",
