Are there things, do you think it's legitimate to deport immigrants who commit crimes?

Which is, again, the core justification that ICE is offering.

That's not obviously the only thing they're doing.

But when ICE says we're deporting this person who had a drunk driving infraction, do you think that's a legitimate function of government?

Yeah, well, that's obviously something that we're going to continue having a political debate about for some time to come.

I just want to say before I let you go that I sincerely wish you good luck in keeping people on the streets of Minnesota safe.

And Francisco Segovia, thank you so much for joining me.
