On Monday, WCCO's Esme Murphy reported that the agents were seen taking the woman from Karmel Mall in Minneapolis.
"People were screaming to let her go," Murphy said.
"We kept yelling, she's pregnant, she's pregnant, she's pregnant," one witness recalled, "they put their knees in her, and we kept telling them she can't breathe, let her up, let her up."
According to Murphy, the woman "who was handcuffed was suddenly being dragged by one arm as the angry crowd threw snowballs and screamed at the federal agents."

Nobody in control serms to have passion for higher ideals, just money.

I really think the reason that Trump and Republicans are trying so hard to get their dirty hands on voter information is to sic ICE on Democratic voters before an election. What ICE does to migrants can easily be done to citizens. In close elections, you only need to detain a few hundred to throw an election to Republicans. We are living in an unknown universe here, and three more years of Trump may turn the country into a living hell,
