Cedrick Frazier is running for Hennepin County Attorney, i.e. head prosecutor covering Minneapolis. He's probably the choice of most progressive folks already, and has made public statements about prosecuting ICE agents. As a caucus-goer, I got a letter with a contact number and asked him about it:

Guillotines are the moderate solution
On Thanksgiving, the immigrant children held at the Dilley detention center gathered in the gym for what they thought was a holiday feast.
The kids salivated over a spread of turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, a family told me.
But the food wasn’t for detainees — it was for the staff.

This is the way. I mean, wear a mask when you do it, but this is the way.

statement from minnesota lt gov and US senate candidate peggy flanagan on tom homan’s announcement of the ICE surge ending soon
![Statement from Lt. Governor Peggy Flanagan on White House Border Czar Tom Homan Saying ICE Surge in Minnesota Will Soon End
ST. LOUIS PARK, MN [02/12/26]—Lt. Governor Peggy Flanagan released the following statement after White House Border Czar Tom Homan said ICE Surge in Minnesota will soon end:
“I’m relieved that this violent paramilitary force will be removed from our streets, but I won’t believe it until they're actually gone. Minnesotans stood together against this chaos and cruelty. We never gave up on our neighbors.
But I will never — EVER — forget nor forgive the fear, violence, and chaos the federal government has laid on our doorstep. ICE has killed two Minnesotans, Renee Good and Alex Pretti. and harmed so many more. Our children, like little Liam and Chloe have been targeted and traumatized. I will never forget the terrified looks on their faces. Our schools, our small businesses, and our churches have been targeted, closed, and harmed forever.
This is the first step in many to truly get justice for Minnesota. We must rip apart this agency that operates outside the law. The government must restore and repair what’s been broken. Minnesotans deserve justice and accountability, and I won’t stop until we get it.”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:o6b6p7w54st6r7ze6nmjv4it/bafkreidw3lmpuazr36nmxoauyiqjtaiq7btte6vch7ks7x65wuuwlvjgiy@jpeg)

Don’t believe the hype about them, leaving Minnesota, either.

Is that so hard to say? All the Dems should be saying some version of this.
Rep. Delia Ramirez to DHS officials: "I have as much respect for you as I do for the last white men who put on masks to terrorize communities of color. I have no respect for the inheritors of the Klanhood and the slave patrol. Those activities were criminal and so are yours."
