Driscoll Statement RE: Minneapolis. I See Wrong. I Hear Anguish.

What I See is Wrong.

What I Hear is Anguish.

January 25, 2026

"Another person was killed in Minnesota yesterday. The federal government agents on the streets of Minneapolis need to stand down. They are not making things safer. In a rational world they would hit pause and reevaluate their operation but it is clear they don't care enough to do so.

I've spoken directly with friends that live in Minneapolis. They've confirmed ICE and CBP are terrorizing parts of Minneapolis. I can hear the fear and sadness in their voices on the phone with me. It's real. It’s heartbreaking.

The stories and videos out of Minnesota are outrageous.

This is not ok. This is not normal. The gestapo-like tactics must end."
