All hell continues to break loose in Minneapolis and Saint Paul as the Trump regime's Metro surge continues to escalate. Donald Trump's Gestapo, his SS, his paramilitary forces, ICE, and Border Patrol are continuing to terrorize communities there. We have the receipts, we have the photos, we have the videos. We've been working with an incredible organization called Status Coup. They have reporters on the ground, and they've been getting exclusive footage that's leading the news cycle in what's taking place that you're not going to see anywhere else. Make sure you subscribe to the Status Coup YouTube page. Make sure you subscribe to the Status Coup sub stack. They've been doing incredible work, and it's been an honor to work with them. Let me show you what's really going down right now as Trump's Gestapo is terrorizing these communities. Right here, you have, there There he is, the border chief, Greg Bovino, with his goons, with his SS, with his Gestapo. And you'll see the protesters are saying, You coward, you chicken shit, you F-word. And they're yelling that at Bovino as Bovino and his gang, his roving SS, the paramilitary right there, just go around and they harass people and terrorize people.
I mean, just take a look at what they're doing here. Play this clip.
Brown shirt. Get it out of the road. Out of the road now. Out of the road. Hey, jump that photo. You all fucking pretend. Colored chicken shit, fucks. You are not a soldier.
Next, I'll This clip brought to you by Status Coup. Ice agents arrest a protester outside the Minneapolis federal building as an agent dressed in soldier fatigues, points his gun at protesters. Stand real big with your effing weapon, the protester say. It's negative nine degree wind chill. Watch what happens. Play this clip.
Moving up here at the enemy. All right, where are you at?
Patrol and ICE that are terrorizing the communities there. You effing Nazis. You don't effing care about the law. You're effing degenerates. The Minneapolis ICE protestors yell at the sworn of ICE agents lineup. Protesters are out in the bitter cold. Brought to you by Status Coup. Here, play this clip.
Starting to line up like toy soldiers, at least not exactly in a... Something the military would find acceptable, but at least a little bit better than the usual mob assembly that they had before. Are fucking Nazis. Why is that?
Now, this next one doesn't come from Status Coup, but it's important to share with you. New footage from Minneapolis shows a border patrol agent kneeling a man in the face as he's pinned down. It's clearly excessive force right here. Watch what goes down, play this clip.
Oh, Stop. Jesus. Stop being in the face. That's his face. Stop it.
Here's another video right here. Ice claimed this video was edited. It's not. Dhs had been asking people to take it down. People refused. Agents are brutally detaining a US citizen community volunteer, kneeling on his head and neck. Here, play this clip right here.
You fucking asshole. You fucking bitch. Why did I get that put in in your face? You fucking bitch. You fucking asshole. You You're not fucking resistant. You're not fucking resistant. Fuck you.
In this next video, you're going to see, it's a new video out of Minneapolis showing the the truth that ICE does not want you to see GZF in Congress doing a great job here bringing this to you. What you'll see here is a traffic stop without any cause at all. Show us your ID. It's just people who have brown skin are being racially profiled. And then, fortunately, it's on camera because another ICE Gestapo, our Border Patrol Gestapo, they wear masks, so it's hard to even distinguish who's who there in terms of the Gestapo, starts banging, almost to break the window down on the passenger side in an effort to try to escalate. And then if people get freaked out, then they use the force and either try to kill the person or severely injure the person and then say, Oh, you were resisting. You were resisting. Here, play this clip.
How's it going, sir? Good, sir. Can I see your ID, please? Can I ask why I was bored? Do me a favor, turn off the table. Sure, no problem, sir. I'll get out. Sure. We're cooperating. Do me a favor, I need to see your ID. Do you mind if you take off your face mask? Just to make-No, sir. I need your ID. You're okay. Hold on. Let me make sure. Hey, don't be hitting my shit, motherfucker. I appreciate you not having a mask on while you do your fucking stuff. All right? Well, you're fucking fired. Are you in danger, sir? Are you escalating shit? I don't know. Handle. Are you escalating shit? All of this because you can't pay back your fucking bonus, you bitch. Okay, great. Relax, motherfucker. Six-week training, this is what the fuck... This is what they're paying you to do, escalate shit? Hey, dude. You're safe. Are you feeling unsafe or uneasy? I don't know, man. Okay, you're doing what the I got one with the master. How many guns are around me? How many guns do I have around me? How many guns? No, you calm down, sir. I need him to stop banging on my shit.
Am I asking for a lap? Am I asking for a lap? I'll get off the vehicle. I'll let you guys do. We will both get off the vehicle.
I want to show you an example where they then went and attacked somebody. Here is a protester who's out there. You'll see his black eye. You'll see the bruises. He talks about how an ICE officer charged him with pepper spray, clocked him in the eye, knocked off his glasses, then clocked him again, pepper sprayed him more, then arrested him. Again, these are obviously illegal tactics. This person was just an observer there with his whistle, allowed to be there, non-violent, brutalized by the ICE Gestapo. Here, play this clip.
What happened? I was in the signal group to observe ICE, and We were called in because one of our observers was being pepper sprayed, and they had just arrived watching ice. Ice was door knocking in the neighborhood, and I pulled up, I started honking my horn. I got out with my whistle, and I was holding my hand up to show that my hand had nothing in it, and I was blowing with my whistle on my other hand. The officer charged me with pepper spray, sprayed himself in the face first, unfortunately for him. Then he charged me again with more pepper spray and then just clocked me in the eye, knocked off my glasses. I didn't do anything aggressive towards him at all. I was 20 or 30 feet away from him. Then he clocked me again with more pepper spray and punching me. Then they arrested me. He said that I assaulted him. I had done nothing. I had just been using my whistle and showing my open palm to the officer. The judge's order just came down, and there was a federal injunction saying that they cannot do specifically what you just said they did.
They did exactly all We have observers that I hope recorded it all.
Next, you'll see an ICE protester telling Zack Roberts. Zack Roberts is the reporter out there with Status Coup. He goes, We're protesting fascist. Even when it's cold, we protest fascists. Here, play this clip.
Yeah, no. We had a couple of fires going to keep people warm because obviously we're protesting fascist. It's a day and night thing, even when it's cold as hell. They decided to show up to make sure that we Fuck you. To make sure that we put out our fires. They had about 17 police officers show up, not to protect us from the Nazis 30 feet away, but to put out our fires. That's the issue right now. That's what everyone needs protected from. These isolated fires that we had in Medaltons, Jesus Christ, that you cannot trust these people. They're all doing the same thing. They're all out here. They're out here to agitate us. That's what police officers just showed up to do. They were begging. They had their pepper spray out already. They were begging to fucking hit us. We obviously didn't give them reason to because we're out here for fucking Nazis. If they want to claim that they're with them, then they're with them. We're protesting them as well. What do you have to say to your elected officials? Honestly, at this point, grow a spine. These people are kidnapping people in masks.
They're murdering people in the streets without any due process, anything, really. There's no red tape for these people doing it. The person who just murdered Renee Good raised about to keep sitting on his ass doing fucking nothing. We know where our elected officials stand. They stand with the Nazis right now. They don't think- He made a phrase that he was abolishing ICE. What the fuck is up with that? That's what I mean. They can't say they'd Abolish these Nazis. They'd abolish this Gestapo group. They can't even say that. These people that are, again, kidnapping and murdering in mass right now with absolutely no oversight whatsoever because they feel like it, because someone has brown skin. It's ridiculous. Acting as if we need to be peaceful these people is ridiculous. They're murdering people in the streets.
Here you'll see the community, the camaraderie of the protesters. With arms linked and snow falling, Minneapolis ICE protesters dance as ICE agents retreat back. Na, na, na, na, na,
Hey, hey, hey.
Goodbye. No, no, no. No, no.
Also, Pickle Rick was able to speak with Status Coup, play this clip.
So what brings you out again tonight? This is what I have to do when I have spare time. I have to be out for my community in every way I can. I think it is probably about 20, 30 degrees colder than it was last time we talked. I guess what keeps you coming out here every night? This is Minnesota spring. We're used to this. So this keeps me warm and it keeps me engaged. It lets me talk to people like you and yell at some of these fucking assholes that are terrorizing my city, our state, and fucking all of the US. We got to an end to it because it will be coming to other towns. They're not just going to stop here. Have you been out here when they raid across the street and they pepper spray and attack everyone? Yeah, a few times. I think it's hilarious when they're pushing a guy in a pickle. It's like, I am so scary, a guy in a freaking pickle costume. Does the costume provide any protection? It does. I could see it may be helpful. Do you have anything that you'd want to try to tell people that maybe aren't coming out?
Just something that is a little bit understandable tonight, but that aren't coming out and to get them motivated to get out of the streets? Yes. I'm talking to the geek community in Minneapolis and the surrounding areas. Come out dressed up as your favorite cosplay. Show them what they're really up against. Show them what real cosplays look like instead of the bullshit fake costumes they have on. Let your geek flag fly. This is the place to it.
Here you'll see a Minneapolis protester say, We didn't fight wars just to see people grabbed off the streets here. Here, play this clip.
I live in Minneapolis. I'm from living in Minnesota most of my life, and I took a half day off of work just so I could be down here. I ride my bike around here just a couple of months ago, during the spring and summertime, I was riding my bicycle. This is a great area to ride around. There's all sorts of great trails in Minnesota, Minneapolis. If ICE goes home, we go home. It's that simple. We all have other things we could be doing. But defending America, it's ironic that we're right by the Veterans Administration Building because this is not why we fought wars. We didn't fight wars so we could have this happen in America. We're not in Venezuela, releasing people in Venezuela to be capturing people in Minneapolis, in America. We try to take care of each other the best we can. It's cold. When it's cold, you got to help each other out to stay warm, and you got to help each other out to make sure that people aren't just being kidnapped off of the street. I was out for Renee Goods march on her behalf a few days ago with thousands of people.
I was out of the state capital a year ago. It was negative or something like that right after the inauguration saying, This is a bad idea. I was saying at the Capitol, This is a bad idea a year ago. Coming up a year later, and it's a bad idea. It's not enough that they lost the election. They have to destroy the opponent. The fact that Walls is still out there talking, they want to punish us. The fact that Ilhan Omar is smarter than all these dumb baskets trying to interview her is causing issues for him, too. The President has said It's basically threatening to use the Insurrection Act on the city and the state. You could see thousands of troops on the ground. He basically can do anything he wants with what's within the realm of the presidential powers. What does it like to have that threatened by the President of the United States against a state, an American state? Yeah, it's intense. All of us have other things to be doing. What's going to is that Minneapolis is still going to take care of each other. We're still going to look out for each other.
I think it was Fray and the Minneapolis police chief were already saying that the Minneapolis PD is outnumbered 4: 1 as it is. We don't know what's going on, if they're going to actually have the National Guard. We saw last night in North Minneapolis that I saw on Status Coup was really disturbing, where we saw the state patrol with batons out. The state patrol wasn't obviously on the side of the people of Minnesota. It's It's not obvious that the Minneapolis PD is on the side of the people of Minnesota. They were out there, too. Yeah. This isn't COVID. This isn't George Floyd. This is an entirely new scenario.
And watch this as ICE detained a 50-year-old permanent resident and threatened to arrest the son when he tries to hand over legal documents. He pointed a gun at me, he said, for showing up with paperwork. The mother was followed, going to work and put in handcuffs, racially profiled. If I hadn't been 10 minutes away, she would have been gone, and I would have had no way of finding her. She was just going to work and not causing trouble, arrested for fitting the profile. The young man says ICE agents do not deserve his respect because they are racially profiling people. Play this clip.
Okay, uncouffer. What is it? Uncouffer, you fucking idiot. Hey, calm down, bro, or you're going to end up in cuff. Calm down. What are you going to arrest me for? Okay? I could arrest you for obstructing. For obstructing? Yes. I brought you my dad. Did I touch you? But calm down so we can work this out. Now, you heard me. I told him to take the cuffs off of her. So what did you wait for? Calm down. What did you waiting for? Go ahead, next time. He's a permanent rest. Don't tell me to come in the fuck down. You guys know what the fuck you guys are doing here. No, I do know what I'm doing. Yeah, a profile on her. No, she wasn't profile. Yes, she was. She was not. No, she wasn't. What did she do wrong? You think your kids are going to be proud of you guys? Don't do that. You think your kids are going to be proud of you guys? That's why you scared to cover your face because she's a fucking pussy. I need to keep it on. I need to keep it on. I'm really going to call myself home.
Yeah. Gracias. Go and get out of here. No. Fucking pussy. You're a cocksucker, man. So have a nice fucking day. Yeah? I'm the cocksucker? Have a nice fucking day. I'm the cocksucker? Fucking bitch. Fucking bitch. Yeah, you're a black man, too, bro. You should at least have some dignity of yourself. No, you don't. No, you don't.
And finally, I just share with you. Dhs posted this, but then took it down. Abc's story was, Two children, including a six-month-old, were hospitalized last night after federal agents deployed tear gas during Wednesday night's protests, according to the Minneapolis Office of Community Safety, to which Homeland Security responded, It is horrific to see radical agitators bring children to their violent riots. Please stop endangering your children. As Adam Cochrane writes, DHS had to delete this post because the family was driving home and got blocked. Ice deployed flashbangs and tear gas inside the car. The six-month-old child stopped breathing and had to be rushed to the hospital. Dhs did no investigation and rushed to lie to defend the officer. There you have it.
