Trump FINALLY Surrenders AND RUNS AWAY from DEFEAT!!!

What this episode is about

The content highlights the controversial actions of Wisconsin Senator Ron Johnson, who blames Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison for the deaths of individuals during an ICE operation, while emphasizing ongoing tensions and fears surrounding law enforcement's presence in Minnesota. Despite claims of reduced ICE activity, local reports suggest that the situation has worsened, leading to increased community anxiety and efforts to hide vulnerable individuals from enforcement actions.

Key takeaways

• When politicians blame others for tragedy, remember: gaslighting often masks their own failures.
• ICE agents intimidating hospital staff? Just another example of governmental overreach in the name of 'public safety.'
• Generational trauma doesn't end with policy changes; it's a lasting scar on communities affected by violence.
• ‘Cooperation’ is a buzzword for complicity when authorities refuse accountability for lives lost in their operations.
• Trust but verify—that's the mantra for communities weary of promises from governments that have failed them repeatedly.

Full transcript with timestamps

0:00 as a governor official would have said, "Back off. Let us work with ICE. Let's cooperate with them. Let's let's see if we can't deescalate this." But Attorney General, you did the exact opposite. And two people are dead because you encouraged them to put themselves into harm's way. And now you're exploiting those two martyrs. That was a tragedy. That was Wisconsin fascist Senator Ron Johnson trying to gaslight the ever living out of us by blaming Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison that it was Ellison's fault that Renee Nicole Good and Alex Prey were killed by ICE goons during Operation Metro Surge. Hi, my name is Siri Crowe and you are watching the Midas Touch Network. in public safety threats and other priorities since this search operation began, as well as the unprecedented levels of coordination we have obtained from state officials and local law enforcement.

0:57 I have proposed and President Trump has concurred that this surge operation conclude.

1:03 Well, despite what Hamad said, Minnesota is not okay. Many of the cameras, reporters, and eyes of the nation moved on to other stories, and some of those stories were really worth attention. But the state regime occupation of Minnesota never slowed down. And in fact, motans have been telling me they don't believe that Trump and Hman ever withdrew the 700 ICE agents that they claimed they did. In fact, motans have been telling me that the ICE occupation in that state got much worse.

1:35 And in St. Paul, we are at the point where people are starting to be hidden in other people's homes. I had been wondering like when this would happen and I was talking to someone on Friday and they shared that they are doing this and that they know that they're not the only ones. And so I don't share this to like spread more fear. But I just if you're waiting for the bottom to fall out like I think we're really close and I can feel the eyes on our cities leaving and I just share this to try to bring them back because the stakes are so high and while there might be a narrative that things have gone softer that it's less hostile, that it's less dangerous.

2:36 Um, that is not what we are experiencing here. So, now we have this statement or claim that DHS is drawing down the numbers of ICE agents there. Motans tell me that they will believe it when they see it. But even if that is the case, the damage is already done.

2:56 And I guess they'll go wherever they're going to go. But the fact of the matter is they left us with deep damage, generational trauma. They left us with economic ruin in some cases. They left us with many unanswered questions. Where are our children? Where and what is the process of the investigations into those that were responsible for the deaths of Renee and Alex?

3:26 Ah, yes. Renee and Alex. Remember last week when we heard that the Trump regime was going to cooperate and share information and evidence on the scenes of both of their murders? That's my word. Yeah. Well, it hasn't happened. I've been uh talking to the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension, also known as BCA, and as of February 12th, BCA tells me that there investigators have yet to receive access to any crime scene evidence by the FBI or DHS. But sure, it's all Attorney General Keith Ellison's fault, right, Senator?

4:00 Let us work with ICE. Let's cooperate with him. Let's let's see if we can't deescalate this. But Attorney General, you did the exact opposite. And two people are dead because you encouraged them to put themselves into harm's way and now you're exploiting those two marts.

4:18 Oh, so it's all about cooperation. Is it Senator Johnson? as the Trump regime has shown itself to be so willing to do. You see, the Republicans are fascists. They are not our friends. And we need to continually remind our elected representatives of that that there is no more friends across the aisle. And no better example of of the congressional hearings we've seen lately with people like Ron Johnson and others just absolutely gaslighting and ignoring the atrocities happening in America. And you know on the same day that these metro surge drawown statements went out, motans tell me that ICE agents were seen crawling all over the Henipin County Medical Center, even refusing to leave critically ill patients bedsides, standing there armed, which is a violation of HIPPA. Healthcare workers describe feelings of intimidation and fear, as you can imagine, of just trying to go to work at the hospital to care

5:17 for, you know, sick people. For example, this is from uh Minnesota public radio. One hospital worker said that concerns were so grave that she started to carry her proof of identity on her. She um tells NPR that she's been carrying her documentation in a Ziploc storage bag since February of 2025. And she says, "I have my blood papers. I have my tribal papers. I have my birth certificate. I'm literally indigenous to this land, but I have to carry all of my documentation because I know they will take me, too." This is an indigenous woman. like she is the first American. Her people are the first Americans. And these ice goons have been kidnapping Native Americans going in and kidnapping them away from tribal areas. They want to go right in onto the the uh tribal areas and remove them to to where this is where they come from. They literally come from North America. I mean, it just makes my blood

6:24 boil. And it's just overt white supremacy, which is what this regime and everyone who supports it is all about. Trying to kidnap indigenous Americans off their own land that Europeans stole is just some absolutely crazy insane work. Bottom line, you know, it's great news that Governor Walls and DHS say that the ICE occupation is ending in Minnesota, but what's that phrase? once occupied by a violent thug army. Twice shy. So, we'll wait and see if this is actually true. Either way, we know that these terror squads are not going away.

7:01 Trump and Steven Miller will dispatch them to the next blue state and they are going to release the Kraken come November. Trust and believe me, this is Trump's voter intimidation squad. So, stay woke. and motans are really hurting right now. Whether or not the ICE occupation does disperse many of these families, parents and um folks haven't gone to work. Their kids haven't been able to go to school because they have been so afraid to leave the house if they're even hiding in their own homes. As you heard earlier, many of them are hiding in other people's homes just to avoid, you know, being kidnapped. And so they're hurting financially. They are short on rent, uh groceries, etc. So, they really need a lot of help in Minnesota. So, I've got a screenshot here if you're listening. Um, you can come back later or pause it and take a look here. Too many organizations for me to name all off, but these are all

7:58 organizations, mutual aid and nonprofits that are helping motans right now. And in fact, um, many of them also help other states across the country. And just to read a couple off, there is the Minnesota Immigrant Rights Action Committee. Um there's the immigrant defense network which is a critical area because so many of these immigrants desperately need legal counsel and legal defense and we know for a fact that DHS at these so-called detention centers is not giving them access to legal representation which is against the law by the way. There's the immigrant law center. Um there's the advocates for human rights just a whole slew of them there and again you can take a look at that screenshot or go with stand or go to the website standwithmininnesota.com but please let's pour into these people they have been traumatized as governor wall says uh this has caused generational trauma for people uh

8:54 children and you know from children to the elderly can you imagine being hunted like this when you're in your late late 70s or 80s my god many of these people escaped authoritarian regimes and they come here uh to the land of the not so free. It's really horrific. So I I really want to amplify that and boost these organizations and um let's do our best to lift up motans because we know there is going to be a need you know possibly in my state or yours next. And I'll leave you guys with this statement from Minnesota Jenny who says if I does leave Minnesota they might come to your state next. This isn't over for our country, just our state. The rest of the US, we wrote the playbook. Now it's your turn to rise up. I couldn't say it any better. You guys, motans have shown us the way. And I mean, enormous love. Can I make a big heart? You guys have just been fantastic. The courage and bravery

9:55 that you have shown standing up to these fascist monsters has been inspirational not just to those of us here in the United States but across the world. So, um I stand on you. I'm sending lots of love and healing vibes your way. And um let's just remember to stick together because that's the only way that the motans made it through. they would not let go and unlink of each other's arms. So, my prayers are with you and I'm praying for justice for the families who have been so deeply deeply hurt um by the Trump regime. All right, I will see you guys back here soon. Remember to follow my socials below and um as always, hold on to your peace.
