Kansas City Star: Republicans ‘Lied’: Governor Exposes Trump Admin’s Threat

Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers has condemned the Trump administration for threats made by Border Czar Tom Homan regarding guidance issued to state employees on federal immigration interactions. Evers argues that the federal government should not misuse its power to intimidate citizens or arrest individuals who have not committed crimes. His criticism follows the administration’s investigation of local officials who do not support its deportation policies.

Evers said, “In this country, the federal government doesn’t get to abuse its power to threaten everyday Americans. In this country, the federal government doesn’t get to arrest American citizens who have not committed a crime. In this country, we don’t threaten to persecute people just because they belong to a different political party.”

Evers added, “But Republicans and their right-wing allies, including Elon Musk, lied about this guidance, spread misinformation, accused me of doing things I didn’t do or say, and fueled a fake controversy of their own creation.”
