Political analysts and observers were stunned on Monday after details of a call between President Donald Trump and a Democratic mayor were released.

Trump spoke with Minneapolis mayor Jacob Frey on Monday, two days after immigration agents shot and killed Alex Pretti, a 37-year-old ICU nurse who was attending a protest as a legal observer. The call happened on the same day that Trump spoke with Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, also a Democrat, in a move that one of Trump's closest allies saw as a U-turn on a winning issue for the administration.

"I just had a very good telephone conversation with Mayor Jacob Frey of Minneapolis," Trump posted on Truth Social. "Lots of progress is being made! Tom Homan will be meeting with him tomorrow in order to continue the discussion."

Frey added that his "main ask is that Operation Metro Surge needs to end."

"The president agreed the present situation can’t continue," Frey said in a statement.

Frey and Trump have clashed several times in the past, with Trump calling him a "radical Left lightweight." The docile tone of Trump's statement stood out to observers.

"Feels like Trump is pretty much unconditionally surrendering as support collapses," Will Stancil, a Minnesota attorney, posted on Bluesky.

The Trump administration has faced significant scrutiny over the actions of its immigration officers in Minneapolis. There have been two high-profile killings over the last month since the administration surged resources into the city, as well as a number of reported shootings involving federal agents.

"This has been a consistent pattern, strategic retreat when things get too hot, return when it fades," David Dayen, executive editor of The American Prospect, posted on Bluesky.

"For now, until they can convince enough Senate Dems that DHS is in retreat. Once they're funded again, the terror will resume somewhere else," political writer Joan McCarter posted on Bluesky.

Whales Dump 200 Million XRP in Just 2 Weeks – Is XRP’s Price on the Verge of Collapse?

Whales Dump 200 Million XRP in Just 2 Weeks – Is XRP’s Price on the Verge of Collapse?

Whales offload 200 million XRP leaving market uncertainty behind. XRP faces potential collapse as whales drive major price shifts. Is XRP’s future in danger after massive sell-off by whales? XRP’s price has been under intense pressure recently as whales reportedly offloaded a staggering 200 million XRP over the past two weeks. This massive sell-off has raised alarms across the cryptocurrency community, as many wonder if the market is on the brink of collapse or just undergoing a temporary correction. According to crypto analyst Ali (@ali_charts), this surge in whale activity correlates directly with the price fluctuations seen in the past few weeks. XRP experienced a sharp spike in late July and early August, but the price quickly reversed as whales began to sell their holdings in large quantities. The increased volume during this period highlights the intensity of the sell-off, leaving many traders to question the future of XRP’s value.

Can XRP Recover or Is a Bigger Decline Ahead? As the market absorbs the effects of the whale offload, technical indicators suggest that XRP may be facing a period of consolidation. The Relative Strength Index (RSI), currently sitting at 53.05, signals a neutral market stance, indicating that XRP could move in either direction. This leaves traders uncertain whether the XRP will break above its current resistance levels or continue to fall as more whales sell off their holdings. Source: Tradingview Additionally, the Bollinger Bands, suggest that XRP is nearing the upper limits of its range. This often points to a potential slowdown or pullback in price, further raising concerns about the future direction of the XRP. With the price currently around $3.02, many are questioning whether XRP can regain its footing or if it will continue to decline. The Aftermath of Whale Activity: Is XRP’s Future in Danger? Despite the large sell-off, XRP is not yet showing signs of total collapse. However, the market remains fragile, and the price is likely to remain volatile in the coming days. With whales continuing to influence price movements, many investors are watching closely to see if this trend will reverse or intensify. The coming weeks will be critical for determining whether XRP can stabilize or face further declines. The combination of whale offloading and technical indicators suggest that XRP’s price is at a crossroads. Traders and investors alike are waiting for clear signals to determine if the XRP will bounce back or continue its downward trajectory.
