Minneapolis: US citizen shot in the face "three, four times" by ICE

Trumptards seem to rather prefer that ICE beat down on peaceful protesters more so than any violent criminals. Cuz muh team

Those are state and local pd

[Blake]

Those are state and local pd

Oh that's right, you guys don't care what type of law enforcement beats down on peaceful protesters. As long as the lols keep coming, huh.

[Winehole23]

Those are state and local pdMinnesota trying to protect itself from the US government by oppressing its own citizens is an oppressive situation that DHS caused, not the other way around

[Winehole23]

Minnesota did not request relief from immigrants or social chaos, social disorder was imposed on Minnesota by the US government to remove immigrants who were already welcome, as underscored by the rate of naturalization.

A clear majority of Somalis in Minnesota are already US citizens and beloved community members.

[Winehole23]

Essentially, Trump is waging a war of internal counterinsurgency against blue states and cities, using immigration enforcement as a fig leaf

[Winehole23]

the counterinsurgency war doubles as ethnic cleansing that also tends to reduce nonwhite and naturalized Americans to second class status, stratifying status along lines of ethnic and racial caste

[SnakeBoy]

Oh that's right, you guys don't care what type of law enforcement beats down on peaceful protesters. As long as the lols keep coming, huh.

Correct

[Blake]

Correct

You aside, it's your team that ends up howling when the shoe's on the other foot.

Shit, you guys can't even figure out what to do with the 2nd Amendment any more lol.

[Winehole23]

Just post video evidence. Everyone has their phones out.Mike Teevee doesn't believe anything he unless he sees it on TV

Even after he watches it on TV

You're just another Republican liar, DarrinS -- you always have been

[Winehole23]

Essentially, Trump is waging a war of internal counterinsurgency against blue states and cities, using immigration enforcement as a fig leafbut also, Trump/Miller fully intend to alter the US racial mix with brisk police action

and to introduce ethnic/racial stratification of American society

[Winehole23]

This whole deal in Minnesota was prefaced by demonizing Somalis to favor Minnesota with federal occupation and a violent crime spree

Immigration thug-in-chief Tom Homan declares the end of the surge in Minnesota without any apparent concessions from Walz


The immigration enforcement surge in Minnesota is ending, said Tom Homan, the border czar for President Donald Trump.


“I have proposed, and President Trump has concurred, that this surge operation conclude,” Homan said. “A significant draw down has already been underway this week and will continue through the next week.”
https://www.mprnews.org/story/2026/02/12/tom-homan-federal-immigration-operation-minnesota-news-conference

[SnakeBoy]

Erika Zurawski, co-founder of the Minnesota Immigrant Rights Action Committee, said she was “sick to my stomach” after listening to the news conference. Citing Homan’s mention of “unprecedented levels of coordination” with state officials and local law enforcement, she accused Walz and other officials of “caving” to the Trump administration.

“Something needed to be done, but what needed to be done was not our leaders caving to racist immigration policies. That’s not what needed to be done. What needed to be done was our leaders standing up on behalf of our community members that have been under attack by vicious and brutal ICE agents,” she said.

[Blake]

ST. PAUL, Minn. (FOX 9) - Gov. Tim Walz says he's cautiously optimistic about the Trump administration announcing an end to the ICE surge in Minnesota but is demanding the federal government take accountability for what happened during the surge, including "the incredible and immense costs."

[Blake]

Oh looky to who caved to who


..The Trump administration said it will end the controversial immigration operation in Minnesota that sparked nationwide protests after federal agents shot and killed two U.S. citizens in January.

"I have proposed and President Trump has concurred that this surge operation conclude,” White House border czar Tom Homan said at a Feb. 12 news conference. “A significant drawdown has already been underway this week and will continue through the next week.”....

DOJ drops another case where the evidence didn't support DHS's story.

Seems whenever DHS shoots someone, they blame the person who got shot, regardless of the facts.




The charges against the man shot by a federal agent (https://www.kare11.com/article/news/local/ice-in-minnesota/dhs-identifies-man-shot-in-the-leg-by-federal-agent/89-52eb8b4c-9e4e-420f-be2f-767b04027eaa) on Jan. 14 in north Minneapolis will soon be dismissed, according to court documents.



In a motion filed Wednesday, Minnesota U.S. Attorney Daniel Rosen urged the court to dismiss with prejudice the complaint against Julio Cesar Sosa-Celis and Alfredo Alejandro Aljorna, saying that newly discovered evidence wasn't consistent with the allegations. A federal judge will need to sign off before the charges are officially dismissed.




Sosa-Celis and Aljorna were accused of striking an ICE officer during an attempted arrest in Minneapolis last month, leading the officer to fire his weapon and strike Sosa-Celis in the leg. The Department of Homeland Security said both men are in the United States illegally.

United States District Judge

Courts have ruled 4,400 times that ICE jailed people illegally. It hasn’t stopped.

WASHINGTON, Feb 14 (Reuters) - Hundreds of judges around the country have ruled more than 4,400 times since October that President Donald Trump’s administration is detaining immigrants unlawfully, a Reuters review of court records found.

The decisions amount to a sweeping legal rebuke of Trump’s immigration crackdown. Yet the administration has continued jailing people indefinitely even after courts ruled the policy was illegal.

"It is appalling that the Government insists that this Court should redefine or completely disregard the current law as it is clearly written," U.S. District Judge Thomas Johnston of West Virginia, an appointee of President George W. Bush, wrote last week, ordering the release of a Venezuelan detainee in the state.

Most of the rulings center on the Trump administration’s departure from a nearly three-decade-old interpretation of federal law that immigrants already living in the United States could be released on bond while they pursue their cases in immigration court.

rampant lawbreaking by DHS


These habeas cases come before the Court for the enforcement of the Court’s prior orders. In each case, the Court ordered the release of Petitioners, all of whom had been unlawfully detained by Respondents. Additionally, in each case, the Court ordered Respondents to return all personal belongings taken from Petitioners during their unlawful detention because Respondents have no lawful claim to such property.1 The property at issue includes personal belongings such as cash, cellphones, jewelry, driver’s licenses, work permits, passports, clothing, and other identification and immigration documents.

In light of Respondents’ numerous unlawful violations of court orders in these and other recent habeas cases, see, e.g., Juan T.R. v. Noem, et al., 26-CV-0107 (PJS/DLM), Doc. 10-1 (D. Minn. Jan. 28, 2026), on February 20, 2026, the Court ordered Respondents “to immediately return all property in their possession, custody, or control to Petitioner’s counsel” and to file declarations “by an individual with personal knowledge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1746 confirming that all property of Petitioner was returned to Petitioner and attaching documentation of that fact.” The Court notified Respondents that if they did not comply by 11:00 a.m. on February 25, 2026, they would face contempt proceedings. As of the date of this Order, Respondents have not complied. The Court cannot ignore Respondents’ unlawful conduct.
