ICE is running a “conveyor belt” of illegally detained Minnesota families.
Agents are arresting entire families with legal status and immediately shipping them off to Texas to deny them legal representation and avoid the federal courts in Minnesota.
The cruelty is endless.

Minnesota National Guard members have arrived at a federal building and were directed to distribute donuts, coffee, and hot chocolate to anti-ICE protesters. Guard members were issued reflective vests so they would not be mistaken for federal agents.

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security has released the names of only about 240 immigrants who it arrested, and a close review of thousands of pages of court documents, prison logs and other public records shows a more complicated picture.
The Trump administration calls them the ‘worst of the worst.’ Here’s what we found.
The federal government has identified only a fraction of the immigrants it has detained. Many have violent criminal records, but few were wanted by police.
