A 'Terrifying Line Is Being Crossed,' Warns Minneapolis Mayor as More ICE Horror Stories Emerge
"Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey is warning that the Trump administration has crossed a 'terrifying line' with its use of federal immigration enforcement agents to brutalize and abduct people in his city."
"In an interview with the New York Times published Saturday, Frey described operations that have taken place in his city as 'marauding gangs of guys just walking down the street indiscriminately picking people up,' likening it to a military 'invasion.' "
"During the interview, Frey was asked what he made of Attorney General Pam Bondi’s recent offer to withdraw immigration enforcement forces from his city if Minnesota handed over its voter registration records to the federal government."
“ 'That is wildly unconstitutional,' Frey replied. 'We should all be standing up and saying that’s not OK. Literally, listen to what they’re saying. Active threats like, Turn over the voter rolls or else, or we will continue to do what we’re doing. That’s something you can do in America now.' "
