James Comer Calls on Trump to Pull ICE Out of Minnesota

“House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer suggested on Sunday that President Donald Trump should pull back the thousands of federal officers deployed to Minneapolis, becoming the first prominent Republican to urge Trump to consider local officials’ requests for respite from the aggressive immigration crackdown that has led to two deaths, multiple shootings by federal immigration agents and widespread protests,” NOTUS reports.

Said Comer: “If I were President Trump, I would almost think about, OK, if the mayor and the governor are going to put our ICE officials in harm’s way, and there’s a chance of losing more, you know, innocent lives or whatever, then maybe go to another city.”

Applegrove: "or whatever" .... he can't quite call out bad shootings. What a cult. You have to tip toe around Trump who is hurting Americans. Comer makes it about the people of Minneapolis who should stand up against their elected officials and Governor. That is the angle the right wing in Congress and Senate are going to use. "Or WHATEVER". Not even calling out the administrations lies. Or the unlawful killing of two people.
