Minneapolis has a long tradition of coordinated violent unrest.
- 1934 Teamsters strike, 4 killed in separate incidents. Mobs of 20,000. [1]
- 1935 5,000 strikers surround plant, 2 killed. [2] (The same building was burnt down in the George Floyd riots).
- 1983 thousands surround hotel where President Reagan was attending a fundraiser. I was there. I am an eyewitness. I saw the organization. Of course, no one could answer what they planned to do with President Reagan when he tried to leave the hotel. But that was the organizers stated attempt.
- 2020 George Floyd riots. Gov. Tim Walz & Rep. Ilhan Omar daughters' part of chat group coordinating riots. [3]
- For those of you not familiar with the Twin Cities, the hotels being attacked are in the far suburbs, the so-called "white areas" (Wayzata in the far west, Maple Grove in the far east, etc.) This means hotel personal are part of the DFL terrorist organization. In the case of James O'Keefe, the car rental agency had to be in on the death threats texted to his driver. RobSAbnormal is fine. Stupid isn't. 01:51, January 28, 2026 (EST)
- The DFL terrorist organization functions like the E4 mafia. RobSAbnormal is fine. Stupid isn't. 01:58, January 28, 2026 (EST)
If reports are true that Dems are demanding judicial warrants for all ICE arrests as part of DHS funding bill, that will take a massive amount of targets off the board for ICE. They would only be able to go after illegal immigrants who have committed a new *federal* crime *after* entering the U.S. illegally.
State & local crimes would not apply. (Feds don’t enforce state & local). [4]
- ‘Unlike Anything I’ve Ever Lived Through Before’: Labor’s Role in Minnesota’s ICE Resistance, A conversation with Kieran Knutson, president of CWA Local 7250 in Minneapolis, January 28, 2026.
- "My pet theory is that if you look at the history of Minneapolis and compare it to the histories of other American cities that have similarly become hotbeds of left-wing radicalism and anarchy—say, Seattle—there are real commonalities. Both cities have a long history of powerful organized labor movements, factions of communist sympathizers, and a tradition of industrial-frontier progressivism. Each city also has a high density of Scandinavians. There’s something about Scandinavian transplant cultures that simultaneously brings an over-empathizing element—bring in as many Somalis as you can, don’t ask any rude questions about what they might be up to—and also a more militant, socialistic, progressive, and activist element."
