ICE again last night launched another barrage of flashbang grenades and chemical gas as unarmed Minneapolis protesters duck and run for cover. And of course, this follows what took place last night as the ICE and Border Patrol paramilitary Gustapo, the SS, this group of people who can only be described as Nazilike invasion of American cities. They shot two motans last night and then they unleashed this bizarre this barrage of chemical warfare against the people there. Here, play this clip.
Watch out. Okay, we're running. Yep. Behind your car. Behind your car. [snorts] which really icy again instigated by nothing. There's only a handful of people standing around talking to each other, maybe sharing some words to the off ICE to the uh border patrol officers
and munitions were sorry. And next we have footage from status coup of these ICE Gestapo, these SS, these paramilitary forces arresting two teenagers in Minneapolis after they shot people in Minneapolis. You'll see that ICE continues to attack the peaceful protesters and their behavior continues to escalate. Let's play this clip. I got you. I got you. Come on, man. Are you joking? Yep. I see him.

So I think they were the ones who threw the firecracker. I'm not sure yet. So but
I wouldn't say anything that we're not sure. We're not sure of anything yet, but they we do know that they did just take a 14 and 15year-old.
Yep. They released the kids. That's the good thing here. They were teenagers that
Yeah, they were teenagers. 14 and 15. They released them in their back home. So
So likely they like if they would they probably likely wouldn't have released if they had any evidence that they did anything.
Yeah. Exactly. Yeah. But also they just it's you know the they they seem to just
Why are we handcuffing our children? Why why is that necessary? Like what the [ __ ] We could Dude, come on. They have nothing on them. He's in a hoodie when he was taken. How is that a threat? [clears throat]
This one's not taken from Status Coup, but I just want you to see the aftermath. This is from the Minnesota Star Tribune as some protesters reported being hit with these rounds. You'll see right over here this area on West 25th in Lindale A. You'll see the chemical irritants and the people of Min Minneapolis choking. Watch what happens here. Here, play this clip right now.

So then let me show you what was t taking place during the day yesterday. So ICE agents were crashing their vehicles intentionally into other motorists who were just driving around Minneapolis. So they would crash their cars into people and the people would be hit and they'd usually have like whiplash and then the ICE agents would just pummel them on the floor. They would just haphazardly beat down on peaceful people. People are saying he did nothing wrong. You just hit him with your car. What the hell are you doing?
Then ICE would take out their gas and their noxious spray and they'd start pointing it and they start pointing their weapons right in the people's faces and they'll start saying things like, "You see what we did to that other lady? This is your last warning. You see what they did? We had uh someone we interviewed status coup interviewed where they said, "You see what we did with that lesbian [ __ ] That's going to be like you. You see what we did with that lesbian [ __ ] That's what these ICE Gestapo, these SS, these disgusting, vile paramilitary forces are saying here. Play this clip.
We are pressed. We are pressed. We are pressed. Back up. Back up. BACK UP. BACK UP. BACK UP. GO.
And here they are again on scene in Minneapolis as shots were reportedly fired last night by ICE. One resident told the folks at Status Coup, "ICE shot a kid. He was just trying to run away from them and they started shooting at the kids. They started shooting at the children." Here, play this clip.
Not quite sure what the situation is there. They they were there when we arrived. They seem to be seem to be cuffed.
So, what do you know what happened on the ground here? I think that they shot a kid. They shot a kid. They was trying to run away from them
and they shot at them. They shot at them. That's why we here right now because it's unacceptable that they they start shooting kids now. They start shooting kids from the back. Now we can't [ __ ] let this happen.

Uh yeah, they just stopping people randomly on the streets and they they they were they were heading home and they start [ __ ] shooting at them because they were trying to run away from them. That's why that's why [screaming] [screaming]

Pepper spray was sprayed. Don't be a [ __ ] YOU [ __ ] LITTLE MAN. YOU'RE A [ __ ] LITTLE MAN.
Here's somebody on scene that Status Coup interviewed in Minneapolis who said the real criminals are ICE. Play this clip. The
real criminals is ICE. They're the real murderers. I mean, we don't have nothing to fend with. We don't have guns. They have the law protecting them. What do we have? What are they scared of? Why are they killing people? Why are they shooting people? We have nothing to fend with.
Uh what what brought you out here tonight? Are you part of one of the communities?
Because it's another person's shot. They're killing people. They're killing people. They're killing my people just because of their skin color. Even if we're citizens, they don't care. They're [ __ ] racist.
Here's another person that Status Coup was able to speak with who says, "They're coming in our neighborhoods. They're shooting us. They're killing us. The hell is happening here? supposed to be the United States of America. Watch this. Play this clip.
Did you get some chemicals, honey? A little bit. Went in just shooting right here. But you KNOW WHAT? [screaming] HEY, HEY, HEY, HEY, HEY, HEY, HEY. I WANT EVERYBODY TO LISTEN UP RIGHT HERE. THIS HAPPENED RIGHT HERE IN OUR OWN COMMUNITY ON 24TH IN LINDALE. THIS THE NORTH SIDE. THIS THE HEART OF THE COMMUNITY. YO, EVERYBODY SCREAMING OUT THIS AIN'T OUR [ __ ] PROBLEM. THIS IS OUR [ __ ] PROBLEM. THIS IS OUR [ __ ] FIGHT. THEY'RE COMING IN OUR NEIGHBORHOODS GOING DOOR TO DOOR AND THEY'RE SHOOTING AND THEY'RE KILLING US.
WHAT PART DON'T anybody understand? AND DON'T MATTER IF YOU'RE BLACK, WHITE, HISPANIC, MONK, SOMALI, THEY'RE KILLING US. I SHOULD NOT BE IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD. THEY SHOULD NOT BE IN OUR COMMUNITY. Then you have a Minneapolis protester in a pickle Rick costume saying they may have guns and pepper spray, but there's more of us out here. We're scared, but we're not backing down. Play this clip. A pickle Rick costume. Why is that? I'm wearing it because I'm showing them how absolutely silly this whole thing is. But I am also representing the Geek Society of Minnesota. All my friends from Convergence, we're coming out.
We're showing you what a Minnesota looks like. This is what Minnesota looks like. We are geeky. We are proud. AND WE'RE [ __ ] MAD AT ICE. I MEAN, YEAH, they've got guns and pepper spray, but there's more of us out here. And yeah, I admit we are scared, but we are not going to back down. And I know my community feels the same way. That's why they are out here.
We will protect our city. We will protect our neighbors. And we do remember at the end, Pickle Rick did win.
Well, Pickle Rick always wins in the end. And he learns his lessons, too. He makes mistakes, but he stands up against anarchy. Then there was a protest in front of the hotel where the ICE Gestapo are staying at, and the protesters were screaming, "Get out. F I F Ice." Here, play this clip right here.
We are right up against the doors. I think that the security has gone inside point. There's a uh a printed out sign on the uh one of the uh exits that reads, "We respect all parties parties rights to express their points of view in lawful and non-disruptive manners, and we are simultaneously committed to protecting our employees and guests safety and security. After 3 pm on January 13th, all guests must enter and exit through the west entrance located at the closest to the front desk. I I feel like they might have had This is a nicely printed out sign.
Feel like they might have known something like this was happening. [screaming] And I'll just show you what's going on across the country. I could show you numerous other examples like this, but this is from Mississippi where ICE just putting a minor child in handcuffs, a US citizen for speaking Spanish. So they report, "We were stopped by an undercover vehicle. The agent opened the passenger side door and forcibly removed my little sister. When she attempted to present ID, he snatched the documents from her hand." Here, play this clip right here.
You guys took her without even asking her. Literally literally took her without even asking for her documents. She's a minor. Literally, look at them. Baby got stopped supposedly because of a vehicle. Vehicle that is a rental. Make it make sense.
