Minneapolis Mayor Has Mic Drop Response To Pearl-Clutching After He Dropped F-Bomb On TV

During a CNN appearance, Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey had pointed words for those who have a bigger issue with him telling ICE to "get the f**k out of Minneapolis" than they do with ICE's fatal shooting of Renee Nicole Good, a mother of three, in Minneapolis on Wednesday.

Department of Homeland Security (DHS) spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin claimed the woman “weaponized her vehicle, attempting to run over our law enforcement officers in an attempt to kill them.” But Frey pushed back against this narrative considering witnesses described seeing the woman in the vehicle trying to flee officers when she was shot.

Immediately after the shooting, Frey said ICE is "ripping families apart, sowing chaos in the streets and, in this case, quite literally killing people," adding:

"I do have a message for our community, for our city, and I have a message for ICE. To ICE: get the f**k out of Minneapolis. Your stated reason for being in this city is to create some kind of safety and you are doing exactly the opposite."

"People are being hurt. Families are being ripped apart. Long-term Minneapolis residents who have contributed so greatly to our city, to our culture, to our economy, are being terrorized, and now somebody is dead."

"That's on you and it's also on you to leave."

Speaking to CNN's Kaitlan Collins, Frey dismissed critics who, Collins pointed out, have said his use of strong language is “escalating tensions":

“I’m so sorry if I offended their Disney princess ears, but here’s the thing: if we’re talking about what’s inflammatory, on the one hand you’ve got someone who dropped an F bomb, and on the other you’ve got someone who killed somebody else."

“F bomb. Killing somebody. I think the more inflammatory action is killing somebody. And so, once again, let’s be real and just honest and straight up about what’s happening here."

"This is not OK. The way they’re coming into cities, not just Minneapolis, but around the country, is not OK.”

Many concurred.

That's how it's done, Mayor.
