President Trump Threatens to Invoke Insurrection Act and Deploy Troops to Minnesota
President Donald Trump is threatening to use the Insurrection Act to send U.S. troops into Minnesota amid escalating protests over federal immigration enforcement in Minneapolis. The move comes after the fatal shooting of Renee Nicole Good by an ICE agent and rising tensions around immigration operations. Trump says deploying troops would restore order, calling out “professional agitators” and local officials for failing to act. Minnesota leaders, including Governor Tim Walz and Mayor Jacob Frey, strongly oppose the move, warning it could escalate violence. Experts note the Act has rarely been used, most recently during the 1992 Los Angeles riots. Get everything you need to be an expert on this by listening in NOW to San Antonio's First News.
National Correspondent Rory O'Neil
National Correspondent Rory O’Neil joins 1200 WOAI to break down two major developments involving President Trump: his recent threat to invoke the Insurrection Act amid rising unrest in Minnesota — a move that could authorize military deployment in response to protests — and his high‑profile meeting with Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado at the White House. O’Neil puts both stories in context, explaining what Trump’s Insurrection Act comments mean for local and national politics, and what the symbolic sit‑down with Machado — who even presented Trump with her Nobel Peace Prize medal — could signal about U.S. influence in Venezuela’s future.

As tensions simmer with Iran and the U.S. continues to exert muscle in places like Venezuela and even talks about Greenland, a new wave of polls shows Americans are sharply divided — and in many cases uneasy — about where the country should be headed abroad. From mixed views on military action in Venezuela and widespread opposition to using force over Greenland, to deep skepticism about intervention in Iran and broader foreign entanglements, the public mood is shifting. National Correspondent Rory O’Neil joins San Antonio’s First News to break down what these new attitudes really mean for U.S. policy, the president’s global posture, and why this matters here at home — keeping you informed with the expert analysis that makes us the #1 destination for real news information.
Immigrant Rams Into ICE vehicles in San Antonio, Injuring Officer
