Anti-ICE Action

The Department of Justice announced Tuesday that 15 Antifa-affiliated defendants have been charged with conspiracy to impede or injure federal officers, along with several other charges related to the violent anti-ICE uprising in Minneapolis earlier this year.

A federal grand jury in Minnesota indicted the agitators for plotting violence against ICE officers during the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown in the Twin Cities, dubbed “Operation Metro Surge.”

During a press conference announcing the indictment, U.S. Attorney for Minnesota Daniel N. Rosen declared that “political violence is the scourge of our times” and said that federal law enforcement is dedicated to combatting that violence.

Independent journalist Andy Ngo has been fearlessly covering the activities of the group of vicious little fascists ironically claiming to be anti-fascist, Antifa. In some of his latest, Mr. Ngo brings us a look at the Antifa goblins gathering outside the St. Paul Federal Building as 15 of their fellow travelers are inside being charged with multiple crimes.

A Portland Antifa-affiliated rioter has been sentenced to 30 months in prison followed by three years of supervised release for assaulting a US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent during a violent June 2025 riot at the ICE facility in Portland, Oregon. Robert Jacob Hoopes, 25, of Portland, threw a large rock at an ICE agent’s head after breaching the federal building in concert with black-clad anarchists, leaving the officer bloodied and injured.

Brendan John Geier, a 26-year-old resident of Madison, New Jersey who allegedly sank his teeth into the arm of a federal agent during violent riots outside the Delaney Hall detention facility in Newark, was previously accused of distributing child pornography.

On the evening of May 28, ICE deportation officers were conducting security and crowd-control operations near the facility. A large group of demonstrators, including Geier, was blocking a roadway used for vehicles entering and leaving the site.

One agent, identified by prosecutors only as Victim-1, moved toward Geier, causing him to lose his balance. Geier allegedly kicked Victim-1 in the leg. In response, the officer struck Geier’s leg with a baton.

A rioter was charged Friday “for allegedly kicking and biting ICE officers” at a New Jersey illegal immigrant holding center on Thursday, acting Attorney General Todd Blanche said on X. Another individual was arrested after threatening to murder an immigration officer and his family, Blanche said Friday. The Department of Homeland Security arrested at least six rioters last Wednesday alone for allegedly assaulting law enforcement, while others were arrested in the subsequent days, ABC 6 reported.

The attacks took place outside an Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility in New Jersey called Delaney Hall. Fox News reported that “agitators…were seen establishing a highly organized logistics and support operation before protests began at the site. Stockpiles of masks, duct tape, hard hats and medical supplies were laid out near the facility.”
