Border Czar Tom Homan says mistakes were made in Minneapolis, mass deportations will continue

The Minneapolis City Council is expected to cast a final vote on a bill that would ban assault weapons in the city. On Tuesday, the council unanimously approved the passage of the assault weapons ban as parents of students at Annunciation Catholic Church and School watched. If passed, the bill would be largely symbolic. Minnesota law prevents city governments from enacting their own gun control ordinances.

A man accused of spraying vinegar on U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar is due back in federal court Thursday morning where he’s expected to enter a guilty plea.

Homan says the public will continue to see mass deportations, especially in sanctuary cities.
