Kristi Noem Calls On Minneapolis Residents To Stop Obstructing Murders

WASHINGTON—Urging locals to “fully cooperate” with federal agents, Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem called on Minneapolis residents Monday to stop obstructing murders.

“The brave men and women of ICE and the U.S. Border Patrol are doing their best to carry out these executions in a safe and professional manner,” said Noem, who emphasized that public safety depended on the ability of federal immigration officers to kill unimpeded.

“These are official, state-sanctioned murders, and it’s not your place to interfere. Our agents need to be able to do the job they were hired to do. And if you do choose to resist being murdered, well, you shouldn’t be surprised by what comes to you.”

The DHS secretary went on to condemn the media for “depicting these murderers as Nazis.”

Go back to where you came from, some little town in SD where nobody goes on purpose.
