Vice President J D Vance visited Minnesota yesterday and called for more local help for ICE operations.
What were the key points of the House Judiciary Committee’s questioning of Special Counsel Jack Smith?
The vice president's message in Minneapolis to local and state officials is to work with ICE, saying the chaos would go way down in the twin cities. That were not seeing the level of violence over ICE action in other states like we're seeing in Minnesota.
Maybe the problem is unique to Minneapolis, and we believe that it is, and it's a lack of cooperation between state and local law enforcement and federal law enforcement.
