Pete Hegseth praises ICE while demeaning the people of Minnesota

Pete Hegseth praises ICE while demeaning the people of Minnesota

This is an actual post from Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth: Praising ICE after Alex Pretti was killed, blaming the Democratic leadership of Minnesota, and writing that ICE is greater/better than Minnesota.

He is actively demeaning the people of Minnesota just hours after Pretti was murdered.

Horizons

Traditions I keep
take hold in this soil slowlyβ€”
home grows fainter still
                           until
distant slopes briefly
make me forget where I am,
re-etch longing.
