A Minnesota county attorney may pursue charges against federal officers for alleged misconduct during an immigration crackdown in the Minneapolis area
A Minnesota prosecutor announced an investigation Monday that may lead to charges against federal officers, including Border Patrol official Greg Bovino, for misconduct during an immigration enforcement crackdown.
Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty said in a news conference that her office is already looking into 17 cases, including one where Bovino threw a smoke canister at protesters on Jan. 21. Another on Jan. 7 involved federal officers making an arrest outside a high school and deploying chemical irritants while students and staff were in the area.
“Make no mistake, we are not afraid of the legal fight, and we are committed to doing this correctly,” Moriarty said. “Operation Metro Surge caused immeasurable harm to our community.”



No, I just have a different opinion than you on what is strong if you’re not committing to violent revolution. To reject fascism means you need a) to follow the rule of law and b) not talk about shit you can’t actually achieve.
I am not committing to violent revolution. Not while we could salvage what we have. I’m in favor of a real opposition party and wildly stronger language from Democrats.
If your hopes rely on the Democratic Party, all is already lost.
My hopes lie on a restructured electoral process. Your pessimism only makes me stronger.
