We don't know where the status of that investigation is right now, but we know they were on the scene.

And behind me here, this visual has grown quite large in size here.

This morning, it was just a few dozen people.

Now, you know, it's upwards of 100 people.

And it's really a point of reflection.

This community, as I was mentioning earlier,

has really gone through a lot.

There's a lot of post-traumatic stress here.

They have been in the nexus of this largest federal immigration operation.

And it's not just here, it's really scattered all over from St.

Paul, Bloomington, the neighboring communities, elementary school kids just too afraid to go to school.

uh they've gone to remote learning in some places in other places teachers are actually walking students to class because of what happened this past week to five-year-old liam ramos they're asking their teachers is that me is that going to be my fate next just a short time ago uh you know while a couple of your other guests were talking they were starting to repeat the names of those individuals who have been shot and killed by police and it goes i mean we should mention 66 of the homicides

in the city this year are at the hands of federal immigration officers here in Minneapolis.

This is supposed to make people safer, right?

Trump did this, the president did this because he wanted to make America safer.

The amount of federal officers here on the streets have made people here feel less safe.

I mean, consider that.

Think about that irony, and that's what they're out here protesting.

Yesterday, they were really upset to see what appeared to be the local police protecting the feds.

You saw, you know, state troopers out here, conservation officers.
