5,000 ICE goons in Minneapolis? I've lived in TOWNS that didn't have a population of 5,000.

For me to see 5000 Proud Boys (or whoever the fuck these assholes are under the masks) sent into ONE city and even BEGIN TO THINK THAT WAS "REASONABLE," that city would have to be in FLAMES, it would have to be the darkest of dark John Carpenter's "Escape From New York" dystopian hell on EARTH, rather than a city that Trump simply chose as his target of choice.

On Monday, Trump said he spoke with Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey, both Democrats. Details of the call shared by all three parties suggested that the Trump administration would start reducing the number of immigration officers in the city.

During a town hall on Tuesday, Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) said there were about 5,000 agents in the city. About 800 have departed since last weekend, she added.

A Google search on "how many people has ice deported in minnesota" will reveal that.

The response I got is too contradictory and vague to warrant sharing it here.
