FBI seeks agents for Minneapolis amid unrest after officer-involved shooting.

Amid increased tensions after Renee Good was shot and killed by a police officer on January 7, the FBI reportedly asked agents nationwide to volunteer for temporary duty in Minneapolis. The Department of Justice and Homeland Security will be more visible as part of a larger federal response. Officials mention efforts to prevent violent unrest and look into funding networks, though specifics regarding the assignments are still unknown. President Trump has threatened military deployment, but no troops have been sent, and a federal judge recently ruled against retaliation against peaceful protestors. Even though the FBI's involvement is restricted to immigration-related tasks, it nonetheless represents a substantial federal effort to reestablish order.
