Wisconsin governor says he's not afraid after Trump official suggests possible arrest

Wisconsin Gov. Tony Evers says every American should be concerned about “chilling” suggestions from President Donald Trump’s top border adviser that he could be arrested over guidance the Democrat issued to state employees about what to do if confronted by federal immigration agents. Evers said Friday in the extraordinary video that he is “not afraid” or discouraged after the comments from Trump administration official Tom Homan. Homan told reporters “wait to see what's coming” when asked about the Evers memo on Thursday. The Evers guidance told state workers what to do if officers with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement show up at their offices.
