White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller claims that local and state police in Minneapolis have been ordered to “stand down and surrender” to the feds.
The baffling statement, which seems to deliberately ignore the fact the federal government has no authority over local law enforcement, came in response to a social media post from New York Post columnist Miranda Devine, who wrote that “local cops have gone AWOL” in the face of anti-ICE protests in the city.
“Only federal officers are upholding the law,” Miller replied. “Local and state police have been ordered to stand down and surrender.”
