Own It

When federal immigration enforcement finally wrapped up its operation in Minnesota this week, you might have expected humility from state and city leaders who spent months resisting it. You might have expected a sober acknowledgment that things went sideways. You might have expected, at minimum, a recognition that cooperation could have spared everyone a lot of pain.
Instead, Governor Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey chose entitlement.
They demanded reimbursement from the federal government.
Let that sink in.
After obstructing federal law enforcement, after refusing basic cooperation, after fueling tension with reckless rhetoric, and after helping turn a law enforcement effort into a prolonged public spectacle, they now want taxpayers to foot the bill.
The audacity is breathtaking.
