Dem governor in deep-red state calls for ICE pullout, triggering clash over enforcement authority
Fox News
Kentucky Attorney General Russell Coleman fired back at Gov. Andy Beshear's comments calling for ICE agents to be "withdrawn from every city."

Coleman, who spoke to Fox News Digital from the sheriff’s office in Daviess County — home of NASCAR legend Darrell Waltrip and one of several Kentucky jurisdictions that work with ICE — said his take is "not a political one" and that ICE also has the backing of those lawmen he was meeting with after the interview. He joined Fox News in 2013 as a writer and production assistant.
"My view as the chief law enforcement officer of this commonwealth, someone that's carried a badge and a gun, someone that has been a federal prosecutor, [is] that statement that the governor made was absurd," Coleman said.
