I don't want to go tinfoil hat on this. But these scumbags ARE the most "willing" to suit up for Trump, and he DID tell them to "stand by."Immigration enforcement in Minnesota

St. Peter police chief intervenes, prevents federal agents from arresting resident
https://www.mprnews.org/story/2026/01/30/st-peter-police-chief-intervenes-prevents-federal-agents-from-arresting-resident
MPR News has learned that the police chief in the small southern Minnesota city of St. Peter intervened Thursday afternoon to prevent federal immigration agents from arresting a local resident.
The resident, a woman, had been observing and recording video of immigration enforcement actions from her car when agents removed her from her car and took her into custody.
*****
The woman, who did not want to be identified because she fears for her safety, is a U.S. citizen and a resident of St. Peter. She told MPR News in an interview that she was out in the community in her car, tracking the movements of federal agents, and recording them on a dash cam.
She shared that video with us. Agents in three vehicles began chasing her and trying to force her to pull over. Eventually they box her in, three agents get out of the car in front of her, with their guns drawn and try to force her out of her vehicle.

In a few pictures from yesterday and today, some of the guys in masks aren't white. You can see the color of their skin in the eye holes and mouth holes of their ski mask hats.
I think a collection of really bad individuals have descended upon us like a swarm of pigeons from hell.

(21,582 posts)6. Fully agree.
I feel THIS should be ONE of our arguments as to WHY are they should NOT be allowed to wear masks.
