Angie Craig is cooked in this city for that Pro ICE vote.
Klob got half the votes in a straw poll where she was the only candidate.
People HATE ICE. I had to ask a neighbor to quit asking every candidate mid speech to arrest ICE.

This is an absolute threat. “You’re not going to stop ICE. You’re not going to stop Border Patrol.”

ICYMI: The US is currently holding three times as many people in immigrant detention as were detained in the Nazi concentration camp system in spring 1939 — six years into the Third Reich, and just before the start of World War II.

Woman with legal status taken from her family home in St Paul by ICE, flown to Texas, held for two weeks before being ordered released by a judge. She lost her job. She's afraid to go outside because agents keep coming to her home.

After ICE release St. Paul woman, she says agents keep returning to her home
Thi Dua Vang legally came to the U.S. two years ago. So when ICE showed up, she thought it must have been a mistake.

Republicans condone ICE & CBP abductions, executions, and unconstitutional actions. Republicans that don’t are complicit.
Minnesota Republican lawmakers largely supported federal immigration enforcement in the state, and did not directly criticize the killings of two civilian observers. A few broke ranks by calling for an end to Operation Metro Surge.
Here’s where Minnesota Republicans stand on immigration, Good and Pretti killings
Here's where 112 Minnesota Republicans in the Legislature, governor’s race and Congress stand on immigration, Renee Good and Alex Pretti.

Boy the "City of Minneapolis" account sure loves to tell us where the mayor is but never seems to share where the city council members are while they're actually in the streets "standing up for our immigrant and refugee neighbors and friends"
In a powerful speech at the @usmayors.org Conference of Mayors this week, Mayor Frey told the nation that you, our community, are standing up for our immigrant and refugee neighbors and friends.

ICE has now purchased at least 1,639,595 sq feet of warehouses in Texas they plan to use as camps. One just 20 minutes from my house.
And that’s just two articles I’ve seen this week.
They are not changing course.

The killing of Alex Pretti and the grotesque lying was an overreach by the administration. They've paid a price and had to pull back a bit. But it's when there's some disarray that the democratic opposition needs to intensify the offensive, and turn a marginal tactical success into a major victory.

Hey, here’s a great idea: passing state laws to prevent ICE agents from holding law enforcement jobs in the future.

What does it take for you to vote no on ICE funding and stick with it? Senate Democrats, do you think ICE is not coming to NV, VA, NH, PA & more? They will violate the constitution every day. They will murder. When Trump orders ICE to seize voting machines, you think they won’t? (1/2) #ICEOUT
