Hi there,

We need independent media more than ever. When we cover war and peace, we’re not brought to you by the weapons manufacturers. When we cover the climate catastrophe, we’re not brought to you by the oil, gas and coal companies. When we cover inequality, we’re not brought to you by the banks and other financial institutions. We’re brought to you by you, the listener, the reader and the viewer. If you want Democracy Now! to keep bringing you the stories that matter most, please donate today. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much!

ICE Points Guns at Crowd Protesting Arrest of Student at Augsburg University in Minneapolis

HeadlineDec 09, 2025

In Minnesota, students and staff at Augsburg University in Minneapolis say federal immigration agents pointed guns at a crowd that gathered to protest the arrest of an undergraduate student on Saturday. In a statement, the university wrote that the ICE agents lacked a signed judicial warrant, which is required for them to enter private buildings. It was just one of several reports of ICE agents physically threatening and wrongfully detaining people swept up in what ICE is calling “Operation Metro Surge,” targeting Minnesota’s Somali community, which President Trump described in a racist tirade last week as “garbage.”
