Star Tribune has been covering these protests more than national news.
But yeah, early reports say 50,000 people, but the videos look much more like 100,000, and just in the main area.
Plus Minnesotans are actually organizing and they have rapid response teams to pick people up in the woods as ice beats them, tortures them, and then leaves them to die in -30C, often naked in the woods. Media doesn’t cover that either.
Plus, there are aid teams organizing food, diaper, and supply runs and distribution to at-risk population. A lot of people are working hard to keep people fed and alive while it is -30C outside
Plus they have ICE locating teams that follow ice as pass news on to different neighborhood when ICE is going there and pass out instructions.
Plus, smaller scale, but Minnesotans are starting to come out and have armed guards for neighborhoods against fascist occupation.
This is compared to in Texas and a lot of the South (famously “you can’t push us around, we all are armed”) where there was the most ICE activity for all of 2025, and they just bent over and took it while licking the boot on the other end.
this right here. every news source is refering to that crowd as “thousands”. most protests dont even get a mention in local papers.
