Minnesota is home to the nation’s largest Somali population, mostly in the Twin Cities. News about the discovery that the the Minnesota taxpayer had become the largest funder of the Somali jihad terror group al-Shabab remains a paramount concern to patriotic Americans. Minnesota has also been in the news as a major flashpoint for the immigration conflict in America, highlighting everything that is wrong with open-door migration policies and the stark lawlessness that accompanies them. Minnesota’s far-left authorities have been rotting the state from the inside out. Minneapolis was also where an ICE agent shot anti-ICE activist Renee Good. Good had hit the agent with her car; he suffered internal bleeding as a result.
It suffices to say that law-abiding American patriots in the city would be furious as they have sought to take back America from the thugs that form the red-green alliance.
This was the scene over the weekend as protesters confronted anti-American hooligans:
WATCH: Conservative Activist Jake Lang was attacked at Minneapolis City Hall today.
A violent mob was allowed to drag him through the streets and he was reportedly also stabbed.
Where was law enforcement?
Time for the Insurrection Act.

But given the demographics of the city, combined with the 85% Democrat support, emboldened leftists overwhelmingly outnumber patriots:

Note: in every left-leaning publication, the usual smearing of patriots as “far right”:
“Protesters for and against the Minneapolis immigration crackdown face off,” by Jack Brook, AP, January 18, 2026:
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Hundreds of counterprotesters drowned out a far-right activist’s attempt to hold a small rally in support of the Trump administration’s latest immigration crackdown in Minneapolis on Saturday, as the governor’s office announced that National Guard troops were mobilized and ready to assist law enforcement though not yet deployed to city streets.
There have been protests every day since the Department of Homeland Security ramped up immigration enforcement in the Twin Cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul by bringing in more than 2,000 federal officers.
Conservative influencer Jake Lang organized an anti-Islam, anti-Somali and pro-ICE demonstration, saying on social media beforehand that he intended to “burn a Quran” on the steps of City Hall. But it was not clear if he carried out that plan.
Only a small number of people showed up for Lang’s demonstration, while hundreds of counterprotesters converged at the site, yelling over his attempts to speak and chasing the pro-ICE group away. They forced at least one person to take off a shirt they deemed objectionable.
Lang appeared to be injured as he left the scene, with bruises and scrapes on his head.
Lang was previously charged with assaulting an officer with a baseball bat, civil disorder and other crimes before receiving clemency as part of President Donald Trump’s sweeping act of clemency for Jan. 6 defendants last year. Lang recently announced that he is running for U.S. Senate in Florida…

Once the Muslims no longer need their leftist idiots it will be Iran in the early 80s all over again. They never learn from history.

Most likely, tharmon.

Good for Jake Lang. Hope he recovers quickly
Not against burning qur’ans, but he & his group should definitely burn Somalian 🇸🇴 and Palestinian 🇵🇸 flags

Obviously the twin cities are in open rebellion against federal authority. Yeah we can send in troops, more FBI etc., but all these people that get arrested are going to be found not guilty doing to the insurrectionist judges and juries. I don’t know how we win this
Westman says
Does it seem that the common bond running through illegal Somali immigrants, Antifa, and protesting leftists is they are ungovernable? In fact, do any of them have loyalty to the nation, or only loyalty to open-ended freedom, without limit or responsibility, for themselves? Do they see law as a tool to control people who don’t agree and when that fails, they cover their faces and ignore law?
Will enforcement of insurrection or sedition acts change their behavior? Not likely. There aren’t enough police and soldiers in the US to dissuade the sense of self-entitlement that runs through leftists and Muslims. At least Muslims didn’t dream up that superiority notion by themselves – it’s in the Quran. For leftists, it was the liberal or absent parents, schools, leftist media, and the Universities.
We’ve been here before, today is a rhyme.
It’s always the big cities where the ideas begin that people are entitled. We were there in the roaring 1920s and the behaviors in the cities led to depression while more than half the population were still on farms. Despite the reforms and a, “chicken in every pot”, it was WW2 that pulled the US out of the depression.
Nothing quite sobers the mind like knowing you’ll be shot at sunrise. Americans were never closer or better behaved toward each other while sharing the burdens and grief of that war. They understood the consequences of losing, even with the buffer of two oceans. There was no expectation of avoiding hard work, being underpaid, or long hours because you had a certified brain. It was the survival of your family and nation at stake.
A nation conditioned by that experience could only thrive when it was over as long as the citizens had unity in behavioral standards and regard for each other – and in the great majority, the US did. Even Germany became a powerhouse after being helped to rebuild and the delusions which caused the war were discarded.
Here we are again, on shaky economic grounds, dissention in the society, immigrants who haven’t integrated, debt beyond repayment both private and government, corrupt government, ungovernable citizens, and two new factors – endless warring that gave power to war makers and providers and unaccountable “security” agencies becoming their own defacto governments and secret armies.
Whether we survive or not, I’m convinced that at some future time, world-level war is coming and it will result, if we survive, in the end of excess liberalism, and either Muslims willingly integrating or their expulsion from the West. It is not Muslim people who are the problem, it is the ancient INCOMPATIBLE ideology of Islam itself which takes over their lives.
ploome says
will our laws allow us to expel muslims or are their numbers and political influence and clout, increasing to a point, where they can vote to change laws?
Demography is destiny..I think we may be near some tipping point
James Lincoln says
Westman,
Overall, in my opinion, the greatest 20-year period in the United States was postwar 1945-1965.
I lived through part of it and – if I could – I would return in a heartbeat.
Life wasn’t perfect, but it was one heck of a lot better than we have now.
somehistory says
I read last night that Mr. Lang had to receive stitches to his head and another man was injured by the thugs.
And the politician thugs are grinning ear-to-ear as they believe they are winning. When thugs run the country, no one ‘wins.’
John1 says
Not just the Minnesota taxpayers got robbed. The federal government which is all of us pays 80% of many of those programs.

Just sickening. I hope Jake Lang recovers soon and that his attackers are caught.

Funny how these peace loving all inclusive left always revert to violence when confronted about their movement and ideology.
