I read this article twice, and I didn't see anything that Kris Mayes said that was either untrue or objectionable. She has nothing to retract. Mayes apparently said that "the Trump administration has allowed Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents to act in ways that could lead to dangerous encounters." That's putting it mildly. When actions lead to the senseless killing of two citizen protesters, that definitely qualifies as dangerous. And when she mentioned our "stand your ground" law here in Arizona, I didn't see that as provocation of any sort, but rather as explaining the way things are here. I stand with Kris Mayes. Also, as stated in this very paper recently, if ICE's mission is to apprehend illegal immigrants, the "worst of the worst", they should have been sent to Texas and Florida, not Minnesota. We the people aren't naive enough to not know why Trump chose Minnesota instead of Texas or Florida.
