Everyone deserves representation, blah, blah, but nobody wants Alan Dershowitz as a governor, either.
And here's a link to a story about ChongLy Scott Thao. The person ICE claimed to be looking for was in prison.

But at least he got this right:
โNational Republicans have made it nearly impossible for a Republican to win a statewide election in Minnesota,โ he said.
Madel's epiphany is baloney or another word that starts with 'B.'

As a criminal defense lawyer, Madel knows that the violent immigrants are either locked or have been turned over to ICE. We got a glimpse of that in the case of ChongLy Scott Thao. The remaining few who might be at large would be better handled by the US Marshall's Fugitive Task Force, not 3K ICE.
