Minneapolis Mayor Frey calls out 'deep mistrust' around ICE shooting investigation: Full interview

Published | Video Starts at 05:16

You warned before this deadly shooting, quote, somebody's going to get seriously injured. Would you go so far as saying that you would support abolishing ice? Well, first off, I did not say that ICE enforcement was unconstitutional. What I said is the way that they are doing it is unconstitutional. You can't come into a city and discriminate solely on the basis of, are you Latino or are you Somali? And then randomly pick people up off the street after that. (05:16–06:26)

CLAIM

Clarifies that the method of ICE enforcement is unconstitutional, not the enforcement itself.
