Trump Should Talk To Angel Parents Before He Takes ICE Out Of Minneapolis
M.D. Kittle
The father of a woman killed by a drunk illegal alien says appeasing sanctuary mayors and violent radicals will make more victims.
The Wall Street Journal Editorial Board is preaching the policy of appeasement these days. It’s like Neville Chamberlain is running the Murdoch family-owned publication.
In an editorial over the weekend, Journal editors urged President Trump to cave to the anarchists roiling Marxist Minneapolis and “pause ICE enforcement” in the Twin Cities. Doing so, the editors insist, would “ease tensions” while the president considers “a less provocative strategy.”
Enforcing immigration laws is “provocative” to a faux-conservative publication that has long endorsed open-border policies. In the editorial published on Sunday, the day after a 37-year-old nurse/agitator was very much in the wrong place making some very bad decisions at a very bad time, the board concedes the problem with surrender.
“Yes, many on the left would conclude that their civil disobedience has paid off,” the editors admit.
This ceased being mere “civil disobedience” not long after ICE and Border Patrol first came to town last month. It’s open rebellion. Federal law enforcement’s departure would signal to the left — and to the world — that Trump can be kowtowed by a paramilitary mob, the street warriors of the Democrats’ extended campaign to depose a duly-elected president.
Sounds like Trump is listening to the “Get the f – – – out of Minneapolis” crowd.
‘Never Acceptable’
On Monday, president posted on Truth Social that he had “a very good telephone conversation” with Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, the same far-left politicians who have likened Trump to Hitler and federal immigration law enforcement agents to his Gestapo. Walz, caught up in a massive welfare fraud scandal that seems to have all but disappeared from corporate news coverage in the smoke of the Twin Cities upheaval, likened ICE to Nazis hunting down Jews in war-torn Europe.
“Many of us grew up reading the story of Anne Frank. Somebody is going to write that story about Minnesota,” the failed vice-presidential candidate shamefully said.
