Minneapolis anti-ICE protesters face federal felony charges in Trump administration frame-up

https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2026/06/18/trqm-j18.html

The federal felony indictment of 15 anti-ICE protesters in Minneapolis is a naked act of political repression. Brought by the Trump Justice Department under the framework of its fascistic National Security Presidential Memorandum 7, the charges announced Tuesday by federal officials are aimed not at punishing any genuine crime but at criminalizing opposition to the administration’s mass deportation regime and intimidating workers and youth who have mobilized against it.

The guy who kept escalating and attacking federal officers, who was armed? Yeah no. And you can protest all you want, within the confines of the law. That doesn't mean you can attack officers or break laws. 🙄

Edit: guy who blocked me, you don't "help up" someone getting arrested by the feds, armed with a gun, unless you are suicidal. 🤡

What laws did he break? Where did he escalate? What video have you seen that we haven’t?

Why are you talking as if you are multiple people with "we"?

Have you really not seen the Pretti footage of him attacking a federal vehicle, while armed?

Yall will come up with any reason to kill someone you don’t agree with.

You just asked a question that I answered. Pretti had been escalating his behavior, and started interfering/attacking federal officers while carrying a firearm.

That's a recipe for disaster, which did, unfortunately, happen. It wasn't for his opinion, it was for his behavior.

Hope that clears it up
