Milwaukee Mayor calls out ICE agents ignoring no-mask mandate

The thing that really concerns me, though, is from the still pictures that I saw, is that some of these ICE officers were wearing face coverings. Again, We passed an ordinance saying that law enforcement officers should not be wearing face coverings. I mean, it's like 90 degrees out here. There's no reason to be wearing a face covering. And I don't think that anybody who has police powers in the United States of America should be having face coverings like that. (00:08–00:13)
