This is why it’s so important to see all the video you can before making a judgement (looking at you DHS). Video appears to show the victim trying to protect another person & being pulled down by agents. There needs to be a credible investigation, not one by CBP/ICE www.reddit.com/r/minnesota/...

Atlanta friends, this is a great piece on the issues at stake in the PSC election this fall AND how dumb our state election systems and laws are.
