Sort of gives away the lie that they're arresting hardened criminals who are drags on society when they're setting up traps to lure in Good Samaritans
CCTV footage appears to show DHS agents posing as people having car trouble in order to lure a target out of his house before arresting them. The target comes out and starts helping them before 3 vehicles surround the scene. The car "experiencing" trouble then drives off with them.

Mexican ships carrying humanitarian aid enter Havana Harbor
Two Mexican-flagged ships loaded with humanitarian aid entered Havana Harbor early on Thursday, a Reuters witness said, as Cuba's long-time ally made good on a promise to assist after Washington threatened tariffs on countries that send oil to Cuba.

Apparently, Laura Ingraham thinks about 70% of the people of Minneapolis are crazed radical socialists hellbent on the radical overthrow of the US Government. Mostly, they're Lutherans who are concerned about what is being done to their neighbors.
Laura Ingraham described anti-ICE protesters as radical socialists who are hellbent on overthrowing the U.S. government. There is no viable communist party in the U.S. and the protesters aren't an armed militia but that won't stop Ingraham from promoting the new red scare.
