ICE Detaining US Citizens

Friday, January 23, 2026

A St. Paul woman who is a U.S. citizen was illegally detained last week by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers, she said Wednesday at a news conference at the Minnesota Capitol. Nasra Ahmed, 23, said she had stepped out of her St. Paul apartment on Jan. 14 when several ICE officers surrounded her and demanded her identification. State Rep. Samakab Hussein, a St. Paul Democrat who was also at Wednesday's news conference, said similar calls about such ICE activity are flowing in from the community.

Anyone still defending ICE would have defended Nazis.

Trump and Republicans are literally using Hitler's playbook.

#3 The reality is, Clown, that they are still defending Nazis.

1933-1945 Nazis.

Today's Nazis.

I once had a neo-nazi client ask if he could crash at my house while his jury trial was ongoing. I told him that I vigorously represent him in court but that does not mean I like him or want anything to do with him. He still thanked me profusely when the jury found him not guilty of the most serious charges.
