Sen. Amy Klobuchar says warnings about ICE raids are 'about scaring everyone' and 'changing the news' and not about security as claimed. 'If you really wanted to go after security risks ... why would you alert them and say you're doing this on a Sunday?'
Sen. Amy Klobuchar D-Minn., said the Trump Administration announced Immigration and Customs Enforcement deportation raids in order to"make news" and scare the public.
The senator from Minnesota said ICE and White House officials aim to create fear, distract the public from other issues and use immigrants as"political pawns." On Friday, crowds were seen rallying across the country to protest the proposed mass roundup and detention of undocumented immigrants that President Donald Trump announced would commence over the weekend.
"I support different enforcement policies," Klobuchar said."But I don't support open borders and simply getting rid of this statute."Sen. Amy Klobuchar says Pres. Trump"likes to govern by tweet at 5 in the morning in his bathrobe."
