Democrat mayor SMIRKS as he defends 'doxing' ICE agents

A Democratic mayor is defending the public release of names of federal immigration officers involved in mass migrant round ups, claiming that the real concern isn't their safety, but that masked agents are 'whisking people' away.

Names of agents from Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) were posted to online by the City of Nashville, as part of a public records request that mandates information about immigration be posted online to a city website.

Mayor Freddie O'Connell is currently under investigation by two Congressional committees for allegedly helping illegal immigrants in Music City evade deportations.

'I understand the concerns but it's not a process that I would characterize as doxing,' O'Connell told reporters at a press conference Wednesday.

'It was an unintentional release of names that was already part of a public record.'

However a local Republican Congressman who is leading the investigations against the mayor slammed O'Connell on social media.

'ICE agents and their families are not safe because of Freddie's reckless actions,' Tennessee Rep. Andy Ogles tweeted.

'He's not even sorry. The pushback was so intense, O’Connell had to abruptly end the press gaggle. This investigation is far from over. Stay tuned.'

Identities of federal agents, which are protected in certain situations by law, were posted online, but later taken down after push back from the the Department of Homeland Security (DHS.)

'We've obviously had some concerns from DHS about releasing those names. They would still be discoverable, but that was not an intent of an executive order,' the mayor explained.

'It wasn't an intentional process. Using multiple local departments, we've had multiple people whose names have been there, but again, this is something new. We're reviewing it.
