Homan tells Minnesota leaders to say 'thank you' instead of demanding reimbursement as ICE operation ends
Walz proposed $10M emergency relief package while Minneapolis Mayor Frey claimed $203M economic impact in January

Border czar Tom Homan said Minnesota leaders should be grateful that the Trump administration made their state safer after some called on the federal government to reimburse damages they claim were caused during immigration enforcement operations.

"A lot of things were broken, but it wasn't because of Trump administration," Homan said Sunday on "Fox & Friends Weekend."

"The border — last four years, over 10 million illegal immigrants crossed that border. That was broken. Where were they then? Did Gov. Walz speak out against that, with the overdose deaths and the sex trafficking and... terrorists? No."

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey publicly requested federal funds after what they described as the major economic impact of recent immigration enforcement operations, while Homan argued the mission was a "great success" that made Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) arrests safer and reduced sanctuary-style barriers to cooperation.

Frey claimed his city sustained "$203 million in economic impact in just January alone."

"And so we're calling on the federal government to fully step up, to provide direct financial assistance to our city," he said at a press conference.

I have a feeling that's just the tip of the iceberg.

Agreed.  Unfortunately, we have no opposition party members in Congress who are willing to enforce this on Democrats.

Which makes me wonder how many of them benefit from this sort of crap, or what kind of dirt the Dems are holding on them to keep them tamed.

Minnesota Democrats demand reparations from ICE after losing $18 billion to Somali fraud

Tim Walz and Jacob Frey seek federal reimbursement as state faces scrutiny over massive social services fraud reportedly linked to Somali immigrant community

Top Minnesota Democrats are demanding the federal government "pay for what they broke" following weeks of DHS’ immigration enforcement surge — a demand that comes after fraudsters stole as much as $18 billion from taxpayers who funded the state’s social services programs under their watch.

Embattled Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz and Minneapolis Democratic Mayor Jacob Frey both made public overtures to the feds for reimbursement for usage of state and city resources and recouping of other alleged damages.

"The federal government needs to pay for what they broke here. There [is] going to be accountability on the things that happened, but one of the things is the incredible and immense costs that were borne by the people of this state," Walz recently said.

"The federal government needs to be responsible. You don't get to break things and then just leave without doing something about it," he said, adding that he will be asking Minnesota’s congressional delegation to be "doing the things necessary" — apparently for reimbursement claims.

Frey estimated economic and financial costs to his city to top $203 million, telling Minnesota Public Radio he would like to see the state and federal governments help pay.

"I’m not naive to think that we’re going to get the entire amount," Frey said, adding that about 76,000 Minneapolis residents require relief in some form or another.

Minneapolis estimated $47 million in lost wages for people "afraid to leave home" for work, $81 million in small business revenue losses and $4.7 million from hotel cancellations, according to the outlet.

The likelihood of federal reimbursement appeared grim after White House Border Czar Tom Homan appeared on "Fox & Friends."

"A lot of things were broken, but it wasn't because of Trump administration," Homan said Sunday.

They will get that and more when the Democrats take over soon.

Is it time to call in the air strikes yet?

What ever got 'broken' was a result of the Police not doing their job at the behest of Walz and Frey, and the "protests" they fostered and encouraged. (aside from the money laundromat they had going).
