Either the federal government exercises authority over immigration enforcement or the state of Minnesota does.
It has been disconcerting to watch Minnesota governor Tim Walz and Minneapolis mayor Jacob Frey go out of their way to defend not only the violent actions of illegal aliens residing in their state but also the criminal behavior of citizens who endanger the lives of law enforcement officers and everyone around them by obstructing necessary arrests.
The Department of Homeland Security has been spectacularly transparent about the targets of its operations in the North Star State. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents are going after vile human beings who should not be walking freely on American streets. Men accused or convicted of murder, child rape, and other horrific violence have fled their home countries and now call Minnesota (and other “sanctuary” jurisdictions) home. If they were white, Anglo-Saxon Protestants -- or could otherwise be quickly dismissed by prominent news personalities as just “privileged white boys” -- nobody would be defending these scumbags. Because Walz, Frey, and the propaganda press describe them as part of the “immigrant community,” middle-aged Minnesota women are willing to risk their lives to keep men who rape and murder women and children from being detained. The whole scene is sad, disturbing, and discouraging.
To be sure, what’s unfolding in Minnesota and other Democrat-controlled cities and states in response to President Trump and DHS Secretary Kristi Noem’s immigration enforcement operations has many moving parts. Information warfare is a permanent component of the modern battlespace. When almost every person on the planet has a pocket computer that also makes phone calls and social media sites are constantly pinging those pockets with targeted news stories, bits of information behave like bullets directed to shape or destroy the minds of those in the crosshairs.
