A pastor at a Minnesota church has found himself at the centre of a growing national controversy after activists accused him of playing a dual role in both the pulpit and federal immigration enforcement.
David Easterwood, a pastor at Cities Church in St. Paul, is also the acting director of US Immigration and Customs Enforcement's St. Paul field office. That overlap sparked protests on Sunday, when demonstrators interrupted a Sunday service, accusing Easterwood of preaching Christian compassion while overseeing immigration operations linked to alleged violence in the Twin Cities.
