As immigration operations continue in Minnesota, the left has created a more and more tense situation, which seems to have culminated in the shooting of Alex Pretti this past weekend.

There will be an investigation into the shooting, and I sincerely hope anyone who acted wrong is punished to the fullest extent of the law, but that no one gets railroaded just to provide a scapegoat.

That said, the left’s mob mentality has continued, and even as Walz and Trump have reached an agreement that seems to be holding, with some federal agents leaving the city, the reality is that the left is the reason this operation can’t afford to stop.

Ever.
