It cites a screenshot posted to X by a townhall columnist showing Minneapolis City Attorney Kristyn Anderson inviting staff to a quiet, supportive space with therapy animals. The piece frames the city&#8217;s response as misplaced amid protests and confrontations that followed the Jan. 7 death of Renee Good during an interaction with an ICE officer.it accuses left-leaning agitators of harassing federal agents, faults state and city Democratic leaders (including Gov. tim Walz and Mayor Jacob frey) for not deescalating,and raises concerns about alleged fraud tied to Somali-run daycares. The author uses sarcastic commentary to argue the city&#8217;s priorities are wrong and suggests that more &#8220;labor-intensive&#8221; work, like caring for goats, would be more productive for some employees.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>Minneapolis, Minnesota, has its priorities out of order.<\/p>\n<p>As chaos unfolds due to leftist agitators and rioters harassing Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers trying to apprehend illegal aliens, city officials are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/as-ice-officers-get-beaten-while-arresting-pedophiles-minneapolis-makes-baby-therapy-goats-available-for-some-overstressed-city-staffers\/\" title=\"As ...s Get Beaten While Arresting Pedophiles, Minneapolis Makes Baby &#039;...&#039; Available for Some Overstressed ...ers\">offering employees healing circles<\/a> and baby &ldquo;therapy goats.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>In an  screenshotted and uploaded to social media platform X on Thursday, Minneapolis City Attorney Kristyn Anderson announced that a healing circle would be provided &ldquo;as a quiet, supportive environment for connection and presence.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>After mentioning the goats were also available, she warmly told her colleagues they are &ldquo;welcome to simply sit, listen, and be in community with another.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">&#128680; BREAKING: Minneapolis City Attorney&rsquo;s Office ed staff inviting them to a &ldquo;healing circle&rdquo; with &ldquo;therapy goats.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>While Democrats fan the flames against ICE agents.
