What would Jesus do?
IF in the most recent American elections the majority voted for a
Republican administration, and allegedly or apparently a very large majority. And this administration also stood on a anti illegal
immigration ticket......
Also allegedly or apparently in the state of Minnesota the Republican Federal authorities have discovered massive welfare fraud to the tune of billions of dollars. And also the Governor and Mayor of Minnesota and Minneapolis have also been given a subpeana.
if the above two points are valid and true then surely the Federal government has the absolute right to apply the law in Minneapolis?
Or are indeed the current American administration a bunch of reckless hoodlums and thugs?

There's a middle ground. The government was elected with a mandate, but maybe the electorate was not expecting it to be carried out with such
zeal and cruelty.-a It reminds me a bit of Nazi Germany.
I don't think their president will ever willingly submit to an election
at the end of his term.

It is notable that Jesus had nothing whatsoever to say about political questions. He did not condemn the Roman occupation of Palestine or urge
His followers to resist the sometimes unjust actions of the Romans.
Indeed, His only comments that *might* have a bearing are broadly supportive. "If anyone compel thee to go one mile, go twain" is probably
a reference to the Roman law which allowed a soldier to force a civilian
to carry his pack for a mile. And when the Pharisees challenged Jesus
over Roman taxes, Jesus' reply was "Render under Caesar ..."

It will be interesting to see if their famed constitution can stand up
to Trump's shennanigans.
