On Wednesday, I had an in-depth discussion with Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty. Overseeing a jurisdiction that includes Minneapolis, Moriarty had significant information to share and a lot of important thoughts about the past year — and the past month.

Physical intimidation and assaults are explicitly barred. If agents ignore these rules, they won’t be protected they’ll be arrested.

Way to go, Philadelphia! The city has introduced new legislation putting real limits on ICE activity. Federal agents will no longer be allowed to operate anonymously no masks, visible identification required, and arrests must be backed by warrants signed by a federal judge.
