Tim Walz Compares Trump's ICE Raids to Anne Frank Getting Arrested by Nazis
"Walz said kids who are either in the country illegally or are the children of illegal immigrants are terrified of going to school because of Trump's raids and that history will judge his administration harshly for it. Allow our children to go back to school. We have got children in Minnesota hiding in their houses, afraid to go outside, Walz said."
"Frank and her family were living in the Netherlands when they went into hiding to avoid the occupying Nazis; they were discovered and captured in 1944, and Frank died in a concentration camp at the age of 15 a year later. Her diary from her time in hiding was published a few years after World War II and became one of the defining accounts of living under harrowing Nazi occupation."
Governor Tim Walz compared President Trump's ICE and Border Patrol raids on undocumented immigrants to the capture of Anne Frank while urging removal of federal immigration agents after the shooting death of protester Alex Pretti. Walz said children who are undocumented or children of undocumented immigrants are terrified of going to school and that history will judge the administration harshly. Critics noted factual differences, including that Anne Frank had been a German citizen before Nazis stripped citizenship, that Frank and her family hid in the Netherlands and were captured in 1944, and that no U.S. policy resembles deportation to death camps. Walz called ICE a modern-day Gestapo, and other Democrats made similar Nazi comparisons.
