Mayor of Minneapolis to ICE: "Get the fuck out"

Direct quote from his live press conference minutes ago. He also said he'd seen video of the shooting and that ICE's description of it as self-defense is "bullshit." Will update when there's a link.

Edited to add: probably no need to add a link, this is all over DU already.

Or will they conduct their own investigation and supply statements?

AG Ellison may not have a name to list on an indictment

Locals will be investigating. Most probably the BCA. The Feds will not be allowed to take over.

I'm not sure if it's a joint investigation or separate, but Trump's flying monkeys are involved too.

Have no fear, Kash is on the job, that's if he can tear himself away from his girlfriend (which I still don't believe he has).

These masked "agents" are nothing more than terrorist goons. Literally the psychopathic dregs of our society masquerading as LEO.

President maybe, as he's infinitely more qualified than what Putin installed.
