When federal government decisions inflict such devastating blows on local communities, people have every reason to question who will bear the consequences. Accountability should not merely remain at the political level; it must entail genuine responsibility and tangible remedies.

He literally says in this clip that ICE will keep in Minnesota “quick reaction forces” — a military term — to go after “agitators.” Remember that those on the ground in MPLS have spent more than a week trying to tell everyone that Trump’s prior “deescalation” was a ruse and ICE is still operational
