The riot brigades cruising the Twin Cities look like an organized effort of the ICE resistance. The coverage available on X far exceeds anything I can find in the mainstream media and the nothing that is available at the Star Tribune site. The scene below depicts the Canopy by Hilton on South 3rd Street in downtown Minneapolis’s Mill District, about a block from US Bank Stadium.
Minneapolis (Jan. 9) — Violent far-left rioters gathered at the Canopy by Hilton Hotel to try to storm it, believing ICE to be inside. They were held back by security. A female rioter spat on a security guard’s face when he wouldn’t let her rush in. pic.twitter.com/3Yi5fKroov
