Since December, thousands of federal agents have arrived in Minneapolis as part of the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown. The city has been shaken by the killings of two American citizens at the hands of ICE and Border Patrol agents and by the footage captured by bystanders of those deaths. “Imagine if we didn’t have some of these recordings,” said Jacob Frey, the mayor of Minneapolis. “Imagine if the shooting that took place recently of Alex Pretti was not recorded for everybody to see. Then we’d be running with these garbage narratives that are created by the federal government that are false, and we’d all be living in a lie.” On the “The Interview,” Frey spoke with Lulu Garcia-Navarro about where the conflict might be headed, as well as the long-term impact on his city — and the country.
