MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Minnesota and its two largest cities sued the Trump administration Monday to try to stop an immigration enforcement surge that led to the fatal shooting of a Minneapolis woman by a federal officer and evoked outrage and protests across the country.
The state, joined by Minneapolis and St. Paul, said the Department of Homeland Security is violating the First Amendment and other constitutional protections. The lawsuit seeks a temporary restraining order to halt the enforcement action or limit the operation.
“This is, in essence, a federal invasion of the Twin Cities in Minnesota, and it must stop,” state Attorney General Keith Ellison said at a news conference. “These poorly trained, aggressive and armed agents of the federal state have terrorized Minnesota with widespread unlawful conduct.”
It’s time to stop waffling and hoping. This is war. Send in the National Guard and clear ICE from Minnesota before more people are killed.
It’s inappropriate to call this an “immigration crackdown”.
Yes, this is pure Gestapo-like persecution, even of citizens.
It’s domestic terrorism, plain and simple.
Brought to you by the people who plastered “we are all domestic terrorists” across their foreheads.
Gotta give the administration infinite leeway. That way they don’t crack down on us and we stay profitable - the article writer
We all know how this will end.
One side is not afraid to break the national and international law daily and commit war crimes without any consequences. While the other still believes law and justice actually exists in the USA.
Who do you think will win?
