Hey, Congress. You know that there are Republicans in Minnesota, right? You understand that, if you are visiting any US city with your kids, grandkids, whomever, where ICE has a presence that your family is in danger? Time to impeach him yet?

Something that keeps sticking with me. I spent a decade and a half as a reserve with the DC Metropolitan Police Department. If you ever deployed OC pepper spray on the streets of Washington, DC, that was a use of force. Full stop. You wrote it up.

Frey: "I've seen conduct from ICE that is disgusting & intolerable. If it were your city, it would unacceptable there too. ICE can leave & this massive deployment can come to an end. We have filed litigation to hopefully make it so, but I'm deeply concerned we don't have that kind of time."

But Minnesota will remain an island of decency, of justice, of community, and of peace.
