Anti-ICE protestors clashed with federal law enforcement officers in Minneapolis on Thursday after a night of violent riots.
Riots erupted Wednesday night into early Thursday morning after an ICE agent shot a shovel-wielding Venezuelan illegal alien in self-defense.
The violence and chaos broke out after Minnesota’s Democrat Governor Tim Walz urged people to stalk, harass, and record ICE agents during a primetime address on Wednesday evening.
Multiple ICE vehicles were destroyed Wednesday night. Far-left rioters stole laptops, sensitive documents, a rifle, and ammunition from the vehicles.
“If you see these ICE agents in your neighborhood, take out that phone and hit record,” he said.
“Help us create a database of the atrocities against Minnesotans, not just to establish a record for posterity, but to bank evidence for future prosecution,” he said.
Walz also claimed ICE agents are going door-to-door and “ordering you to turn in neighbors of color.”
On Thursday morning, Tim Walz blamed President Trump for the riots.
“Let’s turn the temperature down,” Walz said.
