DNC Violence

Blurb:

The Minnesota National Guard has been caught handing out coffee and donuts to anti-ICE mobs after being deployed to the state, raising serious questions about whose side state authorities are on as federal law enforcement faces escalating violence.

Instead of maintaining order or protecting federal property from the lawless mobs that have besieged Minneapolis, Guard troops are now appearing to cater to the very protesters disrupting immigration enforcement operations.

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz activated the National Guard weeks ago as protests surged following intensified federal immigration operations in the Twin Cities.

Evening news coverage of the continuing unrest in Minnesota focused nearly exclusively on the death of Alex Pretti and subsequent fallout, including personnel changes as far as who is in charge of immigration enforcement operations. But two out of the three major broadcast networks neglected to cover the destruction of the lobby of a hotel suspected of harboring government personnel.

This act of vandalism was only mentioned on the NBC Nightly News, leading into a spotlight report on Pretti. Watch:

Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes (D) spurred outrage this week after suggesting during an interview that residents may use lethal force against masked Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents using the state’s “Stand Your Ground” law.

Arizona’s largest police organization blasted her comments on Friday, calling them “reckless, irresponsible and dangerous to the safety of all law enforcement professionals in this state.”

During an interview with 12 News anchor Brahm Resnik earlier this week, Mayes stated that the law allows individuals to defend themselves with lethal force if they reasonably believe their life is in danger, particularly when facing unidentifiable individuals in plain clothes wearing masks.

Anti-ICE agitators who stormed a Minneapolis-area church in January terrorized worshippers, blocked parents from reaching their children and forced congregants to flee during a Sunday service, according to a newly filed federal affidavit.

The affidavit, submitted last week by a Homeland Security Investigations agent, details the Jan. 18 invasion of Cities Church in St. Paul, where a left-wing mob disrupted services while protesting Immigration and Customs Enforcement operations.

According to the filing, the agitators “intimidated, harassed, oppressed, and terrorized the parishioners, including young children,” turning a worship service into what witnesses described as a frightening and chaotic scene.

A coordinated network of far-left activist organizations played a central role in the street confrontation and nationwide unrest that followed Saturday’s fatal shooting of anti-ICE agitator Alex Pretti by Border Patrol agents in Minneapolis, according to a detailed investigation.

The investigation by Fox News Digital found that agitators were already mobilized and actively tracking federal immigration agents minutes before the shooting occurred, using encrypted messaging platforms, live street alerts, and a shared database designed to monitor alleged ICE vehicles.

The 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals granted the DOJ a stay of a lower court’s order that restricted agents in Minnesota, finding the limits were too broad and vague.

Judge Raymond Gruender partially dissented.

The stay will remain in effect until the Eighth Circuit fully reviews the case and issues its final decision. I don’t know when that will happen, but I read that the court expedited the case.

While anti-ICE insurgents stormed into Cities Church in St. Paul on Sunday, there was another anti-Christian disturbance happening outside of a church in Washington, D.C., where leftist agitators screamed obscenities and threatened young Christian families as they left Sunday services.

At roughly the same time on Sunday when the hoard of disrupters — including Don Lemon — burst into a worship service in St. Paul, agitators in D.C. were screaming “F-ck off, Nazi scum” at moms and kids as they left Christ Church on Pennsylvania Avenue. Christ Church in D.C. is an offshoot of Christ Church in Moscow, Idaho, which is led by Pastor Doug Wilson. The D.C. congregation has routinely garnered the attention of left-wing agitators since its first worship service last year, which was attended by Secretary of War Pete Hegseth.

A mob of protesters smashed and crashed their way into a Minneapolis hotel on Sunday night as the city continued to be roiled by mob violence aimed at U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

Some at the scene alleged that Minneapolis police were slow in responding.

The hotel’s windows were smashed and anti-ICE graffiti was painted onto windows because protesters believed federal agents were staying at the Home2 Suites by Hilton Hotel, according to the New York Post.

House Speaker Mike Johnson said he was surprised by Republican Texas Rep. Wesley Hunt’s decision to miss a critical vote Thursday while Republicans work to pass their agenda with a razor-thin majority.

Hunt, who is vying in a brutal three-way Texas Senate primary, was absent while House Republicans advanced a rule teeing up votes on four appropriations bills, including a measure funding the Department of Homeland Security. Though House Republicans did not end up needing Hunt’s vote to advance the funding bills, Republican leadership has voiced irritation about the Senate hopeful’s frequent absences while he campaigns ahead of the March 3 primary.

Democrats have every intention of restarting lawfare against President Donald Trump and his allies the very moment he leaves office, and Republicans need to start taking that threat seriously.

At a Thursday hearing of the House Judiciary Committee, where the sole witness was get-Trump lawfare specialist Jack Smith, the former special counsel who brought bogus charges against Trump twice, Rep. Hank Johnson, D-Ga., said the quiet part out loud in an exchange with Smith.

“Those indictments have been dismissed. Can they be re-brought or resurrected after this, after Trump leaves office?” Johnson asked.

“If you go and storm a church, if you go and assault a federal law enforcement officer, we’re going to try very hard. We’re going to use every resource of the federal government to put you in prison.”

Vice President JD Vance gave a clear warning Thursday as the Trump administration moved to arrest multiple anti-ICE, far left activists who stormed a Christian church in St. Paul, Minnesota. Vance said anyone who assaults federal officers or disrupts worship will face the full force of the federal government.

The co-hosts of “The View” were exhilarated by the presence of newly inaugurated New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani (D), but Whoopi Goldberg topped them all with her praise of his policies.

Mamdani was swept into office on the promise of higher rent controls and redistribution of wealth, but he also benefited from opposition that included a scandal-plagued former governor and an unpopular incumbent mayor.

Her comments were met with thunderous applause from the audience.

The Daily Signal’s Virginia Correspondent Joe Thomas is out with a new podcast breaking down Virginia Democrats’ effort to redistrict the commonwealth.

Now that Democrats are fully in control of the commonwealth, they are moving forward with a plan that could add four Democrat seats and ultimately determine the balance of power in Washington after the 2026 midterms.

Thomas called the move, which could change the Virginia congressional delegation from six Democrats and five Republicans to 10 Democrats and just one Republican, “reactionary.”

Jane Fonda, while wearing a shirt saying “resit,” has appointed herself as the authority figure on right versus wrong. The only problem with that is that she had a lot of feelings, but they were all based on lies.

You may recall the time the Trump Administration deported legal American citizens. And if you don’t recall that, it’s because it never happened. It only happened in Fonda’s imagination, which is where the left often comes up with their “facts.” You may also recall the time ICE kidnapped a bunch of people, and if you don’t, it’s because it only happened in Fonda’s mind.

To her credit, there was a shooting, as she said, “They’re shooting people.” The only problem with that stance is that she failed to say that the shooting happened as a response to someone allegedly committing assault with a deadly weapon. Unclear what she would do if someone tried to run her over, but you do the math.

An appeals court on Wednesday reversed a lower court decision in Minnesota that placed severe restrictions on federal immigration agents when it comes to handling violent and disruptive agitators.

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit issued an administrative stay, pausing a lower court’s preliminary injunction that had limited the tactics used by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents against protesters and “observers.”

Wednesday’s decision comes amid Operation Metro Surge, a large-scale immigration enforcement initiative launched by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) in early December 2025, which has deployed over 3,000 federal agents to the Twin Cities area of Minneapolis and St. Paul. The operation has resulted in the arrest of more than 10,000 individuals, according to U.S. Border Patrol officials.

The Trump administration indicated that it has picked a country to send one of the most well-known foreign student agitators accused of sympathizing with Hamas.

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) plans to deport Mahmoud Kahlil to Algeria, DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin said during a Wednesday interview with NewsNation. Khalil, who established himself as the face of the pro-Palestinian student protests that rocked Columbia University in 2024, is closer to being re-detained by federal immigration authorities following an appeals court ruling earlier in January.

“It looks like he’ll go to Algeria,” McLaughlin said during the interview, confirming that the administration is preparing to take Khalil back into custody. “That’s what the thought is right now.”

NYPD detectives say they were treated with disrespect at a Brooklyn hospital after going to the emergency room for medical care following an on-the-job incident.

Police officials said the detectives arrived at NYU Langone Health in Cobble Hill but were confronted by security guards who questioned their identities and why they were there.

Sources told Eyewitness News the detectives were in plainclothes and explained that one of them needed treatment for a minor injury sustained during a scuffle with a suspect. Despite that explanation, they were allegedly detained, and one detective was initially refused entry because he was carrying his service weapon.

Less than two weeks into the new Virginia legislative session, and Democrats have unleashed one of the most aggressive progressive policy blitzes in the commonwealth’s history. Newly sworn-in Gov. Abigail Spanberger, Lt. Gov. Hashmi, and Attorney General Jay Jones — who swept into office on November 5, 2025, defeating Republicans in all three statewide races and picking up 13 seats in the House of Delegates — have wasted no time implementing their policy agenda.

Lest we forget the election controversy of Jay Jones, who it was revealed in 2022 that he had sent texts fantasizing about “two bullets to the head” for then-Republican minority leader Todd Gilbert, even musing about his children’s deaths.
He also allegedly made anti-police remarks and talked about urinating on his opponents’ graves. Spanberger called those texts “disgusting” but refused to withdraw her endorsement of Jones, but fast forward: Voters elected him anyway. Now he’s Virginia’s top law enforcement officer.

Tensions in the state have escalated, with protests denouncing the killing of Renee Good by an ICE officer she hit with her SUV earlier this month.

The agency’s detention of four children in the Columbia Heights Public School District has further fueled anger against ICE officers. Superintendent Zena Stenvik told reporters Wednesday that nearly a third of students in her district have stayed home in recent weeks out of fear of the operations.

School officials said two children were taken on Tuesday, including a 17-year-old boy on his way to classes. Later that afternoon, Liam Ramos was also taken. Critics say ICE used the 5-year-old as “bait” to enter his parents’ house.

It’s been less than a week since Democrat Abigail Spanberger was sworn in as Virginia’s governor, and already her unhinged liberal policies are poisoning the state, says BlazeTV host Sara Gonzales.

“She’s a deranged, liberal, white woman, so she’s handling it about how you would expect,” she sneers.

As one of her first actions after being sworn in, Spanberger signed an executive order rescinding her predecessor Glenn Youngkin’s directive that required state law enforcement, including Virginia State Police and corrections, to cooperate with Immigration and Customs Enforcement on immigration enforcement.

“I’ve explained this to you multiple times,” says Sara. “They want the criminals.”

Virginia Democrats have been in total control of the state for less than a week and one of their primary focuses has been to protect criminals generally and illegal immigrants specifically, even illegals who commit crimes in addition to being in the country unlawfully.

One of the first things Gov. Abigail Spanberger, D-Va., did when she took office in Richmond was to repeal an executive order from her predecessor, Republican Glenn Youngkin. The order had directed state and local law enforcement to cooperate with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and other immigration enforcement agencies. “State and local law enforcement should not be required to divert their limited resources to enforce federal civil immigration laws,” Spanberger said about signing Executive Order 10.

A Texas math teacher was recorded, I guess “teaching,” a lesson in how to demonize ICE, and coaching students to ignore law enforcement, while also implying ICE was super duper raaaaaaaacist. And I know what you’re thinking, “Hey Brodigan, I thought you were not supposed to mess with Texas.” I had heard that, too, but it turns out you can mess with Texas all you want during the school day.

Others of you might feel bad because it looks like Machine Gun Kelly has fallen on hard times and is struggling to make ends meet. It’s an easy mistake.

No, this is not MGK. It’s Mr. Shearod, a math teacher in the Garland school district. Yes, Garland, TEXAS.

With the ascension of newly minted Gov. Abigail Spanberger, Democrats in the Virginia Legislature have lost no time in introducing a bill that, if enacted, would officially codify racism in the Old Dominion.

These legislators must have missed the day in school when we learned about the Civil War.

In any event, for those who may not be “in the know” when it comes to government contracting, governments consume goods and services, just as any other firm or institution does. This includes the relatively simple services like landscaping or janitorial needs, to the more specialized, like IT hardware and cybersecurity consulting.

An illegal alien and suspected human smuggler allegedly used his vehicle as a weapon while fleeing from federal immigration agents in southern California.

William Eduardo Moran Carballo, a Salvadoran national with a lengthy rap sheet who has been living unlawfully in the United States, rammed his vehicle into Customs and Border Protection agents during an operation Wednesday morning in Compton, California, according to the Department of Homeland Security.

The incident marks just the latest example of criminals weaponizing their vehicles against federal law enforcement.

Police have yet to identify the pro-Palestinian vandals who caused $7K worth of damage to the home of University of Washington’s former president, according to police reports obtained by The College Fix through a public records request.

The Fix recently obtained the police report and notes for Seattle’s investigation into the November 14, 2024 attack on Ana Mari Cauce’s home and car. This attack followed a similar pro-Palestinian vandalism at the university’s mansion, which is available for use by the school’s president on October 28, 2024.  Cauce retired last summer.

The vandals spray painted the front of her house and her car, then slashed three of her tires. They left messages including “FREE PALESTINE” and “ANA MARI COMPLICIT IN GENOCIDE,” among other pro-Palestinian messages,” The Fix previously reported.

“The movement will continue to apply pressure to Ana Mari until UW cuts ties with war profiteers such as Boeing, and divests from the Zionist entity,” one message also stated, referring to Israel. President Cauce supported a ceasefire in Gaza but opposed Israeli divestment, according to Fox 13.

Under Trump, the media elites treat the executive branch as an evil empire, but under Biden, journalists were so eager to help promote the Democrats that they sometimes offered their sources the ability to edit their articles to their liking.

New documents shared exclusively with MRC Business just exposed the latest example of elitist media hacks violating every modicum of journalistic integrity to genuflect to the Biden administration’s whims and wishes.

Forbes contributor Rhett Buttle and his associate Abdullah Kahn offered to delay a story schmoozing President Joe Biden’s Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Michael Regan on his “environmental justice” focus until his team had a chance to address the catastrophic February 3, 2023, train derailment in East Palestine, Ohio, according to emails obtained by the Functional Government Initiative.

The incident had led to a controlled explosion and the spewing of hazardous fumes into the atmosphere, with reports of groundwater damage, dead animals and health issues circulating. Both Buttle and Khan attempted to take some of the media pressure off of the Biden administration by postponing publication of the interview until the political heat died down, even though they had been in communication with the EPA about the interview since at least December 2022.

Sadly, we’re seeing a lot of reports about ICE and border patrol agents being denied service at places like Minneapolis Hilton Hotel locations – ostensibly over “public safety concerns,” as RedState previously reported.

There’s even one report from independent journalist Cam Higby about a Speedway gas station in Minnesota, where Border Patrol Commander at Large Greg Bovino was allegedly denied service by a man claiming to be a gas station attendant. As of this writing, Speedway has not confirmed if the man was or is an actual employee. But the video shows the scene very active with triggered anti-ICE agitators, and the man was seen trailing Bovino with a cellphone camera in hand in front of the store and near the gas pumps.

Hotels and gas stations are one thing. But hospitals, too? That’s a claim that has surfaced related to an incident in New York involving NYPD detectives who reportedly went to a Brooklyn hospital after one of them sustained an injury while trying to apprehend a suspect.
