wtf??????
The US Department of Justice said Sunday it is investigating a group of protesters in Minnesota who disrupted services at a church where a local official with US Immigration and Customs Enforcement apparently serves as a pastor.
The protesters allege that one of the churchs pastors David Easterwood also leads the local ICE field office overseeing the operations that have involved violent tactics and illegal arrests.

(10,351 posts)There was not any evidence mentioned that the guy actually was an ICE agent. That doesn't mean that there is not any, just that they never offered any.
But, if he is one of them, well... payback is a bitch, isn't it?
