St. Paul’s Mentally Challenged Lawsuit with NO Precendent: Stop Feds from enforcing Federal Law
from News For Reasonable People · host Sean Reynolds
The Mayor of St. Paul just sued the federal government to stop federal agents from enforcing federal law. Let that sink in. No legal precedent? No problem—she'll just create one, apparently. Yet another performative lawsuit burning through taxpayer dollars while ICE carries out deportations of criminal illegal immigrants who already have deportation orders.We break down the embarrassing CNN interview where she admits there's zero legal precedent for this case, explain why every administration has conducted local deportations (because geography exists), and explore the chaos in Minnesota following Operation Metro Surge's 2,500+ arrests. Meanwhile, six federal prosecutors resign after being asked to investigate domestic terrorism connections. The wheels are coming off in Minneapolis, folks.Is this what "resistance" looks like in 2025—lawsuits without legal standing and prosecutors rage-quitting? How long can sanctuary city officials keep pretending federal law doesn't apply to them?
