Mayor of Minneapolis to ICE: "Get the fuck out"

Direct quote from his live press conference minutes ago. He also said he'd seen video of the shooting and that ICE's description of it as self-defense is "bullshit." Will update when there's a link.

Edited to add: probably no need to add a link, this is all over DU already.

Locals will be investigating. Most probably the BCA. The Feds will not be allowed to take over.

I'm not sure if it's a joint investigation or separate, but Trump's flying monkeys are involved too.

Have no fear, Kash is on the job, that's if he can tear himself away from his girlfriend (which I still don't believe he has).
