Just as ICE and CBP have no legitimate role in "election security" neither does the head of DHS. The mere existence of this press conference should be a scandal, much less this tone-deaf comment.

The judge pointed to a letter from Bondi to Minnesota that tied federal immigration enforcement to demands for voter data as the smoking gun.
A federal judge in Oregon issued a sweeping rebuke of the Justice Departmentโs nationwide push to seize state voter rolls, ruling that the department can no longer be presumed to be acting in good faith and warning that its conduct threatens voters and statesโ rights.

I've been sent video from the end of the ICE raid at the Zipps on 32nd and Shea.
It shows protesters -- on the sidewalk, impeding no one -- getting drive-by maced by an ICE agent from a truck as it rolls away down the road.

Minneapolis shooting: What we know about Alex Pretti, the man killed by Border Patrol agent
Alex Pretti, a 37-year-old ICU nurse, was fatally shot Saturday morning by a Border Patrol agent in Minneapolis.
US citizen. Public servant. Licensed to carry a firearm but had no weapon in hand when killed. Attacked by ICE agents with chemical munitions for no reason, then shot.
The time for talking is over. If you are an elected leader you have to tell us *now* what you are doing to end this nightmare ASAP.
