"[Frey's] talking about our democracy. Well, part of our democracy is we have elections and we pass laws, and the Executive branch enforces the laws. And he's using his authority to prevent the law from being enforced. It's a complete subversion effort by him and Governor Walz the likes of which we have not been seen probably since the Civil War where the state is basically saying, Hey, this is a no-go zone for immigration law enforcement.'"
"And both Walz and Frey have said that, and that's remarkable. The president not only to has a responsibility just for the immigration law, but for all laws in general to not let that stand. Fahey added, You can't have a state, you can't have a politician, and you can't have some activists decide what federal laws get enforced and where they get enforced. It's really outrageous conduct."
Jonathan Fahey condemned Governor Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey for actions that hinder federal immigration enforcement and described those actions as a subversion of law enforcement authority. Fahey characterized the conduct as outrageous and compared it to behavior not seen since the Civil War, saying state officials are effectively declaring no-go zones for immigration enforcement. Frey described anti-ICE protests as peaceful and urged removal of ICE and Border Patrol agents after a protester was shot. A Border Patrol agent shot and killed Alex Jeffrey Pretti. Fahey served as acting ICE director for two weeks in late 2020 to early 2021.
