The Minneapolis businesses that exploit illegal migrants should be compensated by ordinary Americans for economic losses amid the federal enforcement of popular immigration and civil rights laws, according to Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz.
“They left us with economic ruin,” Walz complained after White House advisor Tom Homan said on Thursday that he is withdrawing most ICE officers after arresting more than 4,000 illegal migrants in Minneapolis.

“Many Minnesota businesses – especially small businesses — are facing economic hardships that may prove insurmountable” because of the federal enforcement, said Matt Varilek, an economic development manager for Walz.

Eff off retard. Walz is really stupid.
This was the Confederate’s argument, too, about taking their slaves.
Democrats never change.
FAFO
That’s like suing the government over a military base closure because it devastated your liquor and prostitution industries.
What an idiot - they should fine them $$$$$
Pretty cool. Wish I had time to learn how to do that kind of AI work.
How about instead of compensating these companies, their owners get charged with Federal crimes for employing illegals? That sounds better.
This bastard, Walz, was nearly Vice President.
Inanity piled upon a total lack of sense of proportion or logical thought. If people thought Tim Walz was an empty suit, now the suit is turning into gossamer.
The ultimate Invisible Man, the never was and never shall be significant in any way, shape, form, or manner.
Timmy Walz is the quintessential
corrupt, Insurrectionist Democrat
Natasha Owens does great stuff.
I listened to some Minneapolis talk radio this morning. They think they should be reimbursed for every dime of damages incurred in the protests because of their root cause. Oh, and the ongoing costs of providing and delivering staples to those (”neighbors” and citizens) who are too frightened to leave their homes to shop or earn a living.
Walz can take a hike. Methinks everyone here knows what I really want to say!!
WTF is all this “gimme dat” money?!
No - they hired illegal immigrants at probably cheaper rates than actual citizens. It’s on them.
I thought this was a Babylon Bee article. Wow. What is in the food up there. It makes me want to build my business using illegal immigrant labor and when the authorities arrive to remove my labor force, I should expect a big check from the government.
Who thinks that way?
Putz started the anti ICE insurrection with his call to Portland, LA and Chicago Antifa to rally to MN. The left organized an impressive revolutionary mob. The left got new martyrs. Altogether I think the MN insurrection was a stand off. Trump’s approval rating wasn’t hurt.
Uh, drop DEAD, Walz. Your Minnesota companies chose to break the law by hiring illegals. We don’t owe them SQUAT.
Well, officials of those companies that hired illegal immigrants should indeed be rewarded.
They should receive a term of years in the federal prison system.
