Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey has finally broken his silence on the shocking invasion of a local church by criminal illegal immigrants - and his pathetic response is exactly why President Trump's aggressive ICE enforcement surge couldn't have come soon enough.
The Democrat mayor's delayed and watered-down statement comes after days of silence while his city's residents demanded action against the brazen criminals who violated the sanctity of a house of worship. But instead of strong leadership, Frey delivered another masterclass in liberal weakness that puts criminal aliens before law-abiding Americans.
This is the same Jacob Frey who has consistently rolled out the red carpet for illegal immigrants while his own constituents suffer the consequences. Time and again, he's chosen to protect those who have no right to be here over the safety and security of Minneapolis families.
Trump's ICE Surge: Vindication in Action
Frey's inadequate response serves as a perfect reminder of why President Trump made mass deportation a cornerstone of his second-term agenda. While Democrat mayors like Frey fiddle around with politically correct nonsense, criminal illegal immigrants are literally invading churches and terrorizing communities.
The church invasion incident - which Frey initially ignored - represents everything wrong with the Biden regime's open-border disaster. These weren't asylum seekers looking for a better life. These were criminals who felt emboldened by four years of Democrat policies that treated America like a dumping ground for the world's problems.
"This is exactly why we need strong leadership in Washington, not weak-kneed local politicians who care more about their progressive credentials than protecting their own people," one Minneapolis resident told local media.
President Trump's ICE surge, led by his America First administration, is already showing results across the country. But mayors like Frey continue to obstruct federal law enforcement at every turn, creating sanctuary cities that become magnets for criminal activity.
How many more churches need to be invaded? How many more American families need to suffer before Democrat mayors start putting their own citizens first? Frey's weak response tells us everything we need to know about where his priorities lie - and it's not with the people who elected him.
