Former Attorney General Bill Barr is applauding Minnesota business leaders for refusing to buckle under activist pressure and instead supporting federal immigration enforcement as President Trump's mass deportation operation faces fierce resistance from the radical left.
Responding to an open letter from the Minnesota Chamber of Commerce urging cooperation between federal and state authorities, Barr told The Daily Wire on Tuesday that he was "encouraged" by the business community's willingness to stand with law enforcement rather than cave to the anti-ICE mob.
The chamber's letter comes as leftist agitators have launched coordinated protests against Immigration and Customs Enforcement operations across the country, desperately trying to obstruct Trump's promise to remove criminal illegal aliens from American communities.
"It's refreshing to see business leaders who understand that the rule of law matters more than appeasing activists who want open borders," a source familiar with Barr's comments said.
This backbone from Minnesota's business community stands in stark contrast to the usual corporate cowardice we've seen over the past several years, where companies routinely surrendered to woke pressure campaigns rather than defend basic American principles.
Patriots vs. The Resistance
The Minnesota Chamber of Commerce's support for federal-state cooperation represents exactly the kind of leadership America needs as Trump implements his America First agenda. While Democrats and their media allies shriek about "family separation" and "raids," real Americans understand that enforcing immigration law protects communities and upholds the Constitution.
Barr's praise highlights a growing divide between patriotic Americans who want secure borders and the radical left's "resistance" movement that seems more interested in protecting illegal aliens than American citizens.
As Trump's deportation machine ramps up across the country, will more business leaders find the courage to stand with law enforcement? Or will they continue letting activist mobs dictate policy in America?
