Anti ICE and Antifa thugs stalk, attack, harass, and dox ICE agents during the commission of their law enforcement. Those crimes have consequences.
Border czar Tom Homan told reporters that over 150 people had been arrested for trying to thwart United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers. ICE had taken over 250 criminals into custody during its operations.
Becky Ringstrom was heading home after following federal immigration officers in her gray Kia SUV in suburban Minneapolis when she was suddenly boxed in by unmarked vehicles. At least a half-dozen masked agents jumped out to arrest her, one knocking on her windshield with a metal object as if threatening to use it to break her window.
After the arrest, captured on bystander video verified by Reuters, the 42-year-old mother of seven later said she was transported to Bishop Henry Whipple Federal Building in Minneapolis where an officer gave her a citation charging her under a federal law that criminalizes impeding law enforcement. The official said her name and photo would be added to a government database.The arrest of Ringstrom became the latest detention of one of thousands of local activists for violating Title 18, Section 111 of the U.S. Code, a catch-all charge for anyone who “forcibly assaults, resists, opposes, impedes, intimidates, or interferes” with a federal officer conducting official duties. The statute can be charged as a felony or misdemeanor. As a felony, it carries up to 20 years in prison, but penalties beyond eight years are reserved for people who use “a deadly or dangerous weapon” or cause an injury.
A Reuters review of federal court records found that the Trump administration has prosecuted at least 655 people under that charge across the U.S. since a series of city-focused immigration crackdowns began last summer. That’s more than double the prosecutions during the same period in 2024-2025, according to a review of publicly available criminal filings in Westlaw, a legal research database owned by Thomson Reuters.
Good. Turn the tables on these malfeasants who impede the apprehension of illegal alien criminals IAW the federal laws.
ICE is arresting murderers, violent child rapists, and gang members, along with the foreign nationals who are getting deported for being in the country illegally. They were working to arrest convicted pedophiles and murderers while Renee Good tried to run over one of the officers, and Alex Pretti showed up with a gun while interfering with law enforcement and resisting arrest.
They’re also arresting Somali nationals who commit murder, billions of dollars in welfare fraud, and fund the Al-Shabaab terrorist group.
The anti-ICE mob isn’t interested in the facts. They are crisis actors for the Left. Violence and chaos are the methods.
The violence and rhetoric against ICE agents simply doing their job has skyrocketed, mostly in the Dem-ruled anti-ICE/Antifa enclaves of Portland, Oregon and Minneapolis, Minnesota.
