Independent journalist Andrew Mercado is LIVE ON-THE-GROUND in Minneapolis as protesters march downtown (watch stream above) to voice their opposition to local sheriffs and police collaborating with and protecting ICE as Trump's agents continue to terrorize innocent people across Minnesota. SUBSCRIBE to Mercado Media on YouTube.
The protest is part of a week-long series of actions to continue to demand ICE get out out of Minnesota.
Despite the Trump administration’s declaration that it was ending its Minnesota terror campaign and removing 3,000 agents, there are still hundreds of ICE agents conducting raids. In fact, the main difference now between the worst of the ICE terror campaign in January and now is simply ICE and Border Patrol have moved further out of Minneapolis and St. Paul and are now mainly operating in the suburbs.
