Send a text A student at the University of Minnesota tells Alpha News she had to take part in what her professor called an "'ICE drill" during class. The student said it was meant to teach students how to respond if ICE ever came to the class—and how white students needed to use their bodies to "cover" and "shield" other students who may be likely targets of immigration enforcement. The student, who initially did not want to be anonymous but did so to protect family and friends, said ...

Hopefully your guest will be successful in extracting the child from that situation and redirect his upbringing to build a stable citizen, who aids in the success of our future society, but given the perverse regulations paired with rebelious judicial activists grinding the wheels of justice in MN, this will be likely be a daunting battle.
Great coverage of the purchased performative neo-confederate insurrection in support of slave wage labor. And of course the ongoing probing revolution against Our Republic. Great conversation with a knowledgeable guest who even through cancelation adversities sees and understands the present hazards. The iron triangle of propaganda is at work and being utilized to perfection by the paid theatrical activists, #LeftWingLegacyMedia, and corrupt politicians in MN. Will we lear our lessons?
Yep, it's set up to facilitate wide spread fraud. The dims like it that way, and rely on it.
It is shocking the types of idiots that are allowed to influence students by attempting indoctrination within the established educational industrial complex. Thanks for this story.
Elections with DFL involvement in MN has been crooked since the Coleman election was hijacked.
More MN graft. Will the governing leadership of the state not ever lear?
More nonsense out of the juvenile governance from the petulant children in charge of governing MN. Hopefully timpon and his corrupt team of dimocrat imbeciles will we removed and replaced by common sense adults.
Maine has learing centers too. Common threads, dimocrat politicians and foreigner controlled taxslave funded 'charity' entities. Everyone except the taxslaves get a cut of the graft. Foreigners fund their homeland causes and recycle a tithe to elect their benefactor politicians including helping to fund their enabling politicians favorite agitating activist groups.
Very accurate recounting of events! Thank you!
More "learing" centers for fraud?
Wow! Deport her now! Has anyone bothered to verify Ilhan is present in this nation and grifting in Congress legally? Changing her birth year is a red flag? I wonder about marrying her husbro? Is tax fraud also a criminal act for this #dimocrat super citizen?
Wow! US citizens can't even move ten thousand dollars within their banks with out special paperwork and Timpon's Ilhan army moved millions through MSP with out any scrutiny whatsoever.
1:30 obligatory disclaimer to avoid cancellation, which is likely already in the works.
More MN fraud picking the pockets of #taxslaves? With this much fraud, one must start to question if those on the inside are taking a taste? Merry Thanksgiving!
Good reporting on a bad situation where a man was railroaded by leftist manufactured creative "justice".
Acces to property taxes allowed by some counties funding unaccountable NGO's without oversight?
Good work!
C'mon man, those are dudes! Any sentient human being could tell...
@8:30 SooFalls has its own problems with the #criminalinvader influx, but not near the dangerous deranged #Transtifa mental illness mindset that exist in the cities
Truthful perspective based in reality. You can say what you want to say, but you're not entitled to taxpayer handouts to do it.
