Barbarians at the Gate: What Leftist in Minneapolis Said As Rioters Attempted to Storm ICE Facility Proves We Need the Insurrection Act Now

In Minneapolis, we have one woman who tried to ram an Immigration and Customs Enforcement official with her SUV who has been shot dead. We now have another individual who has been shot after he and two others allegedly assaulted an ICE agent.
Vehicles used by the Department of Homeland Security and the FBI have been destroyed and rifled through by looters. Law enforcement officials have been doxxed on livestreams.[snip]

“We don’t have the numbers for this yet!”

Yet.

Let that word sink in. We have roving mobs who have decided the law doesn’t apply to them and they can decide which ones they can obey and for what reason. What’s more, Minneapolis has a mayor and Minnesota has a governor who have tacitly — if not explicitly — endorsed this notion of violent noncompliance.

“If the corrupt politicians of Minnesota don’t obey the law and stop the professional agitators and insurrectionists from attacking the Patriots of I.C.E., who are only trying to do their job, I will institute the INSURRECTION ACT, which many Presidents have done before me, and quickly put an end to the travesty that is taking place in that once great State,” he wrote via Truth Social on Thursday.

And the video outside of Minneapolis’s Whipple Federal Building, which is an ICE facility, on Friday is precisely the reason why this needs to happen.

They didn’t, but that didn’t stop another one of the thugs from saying that “they’ve destroyed lives, dude — it comes really easily from a white dude to say to keep the peace!”

WARNING: The following video contains vulgar language that some viewers will find offensive.

And if there’s anything that 2020 should have taught us, it’s that in left-run cities in general — and Minneapolis in particular — they will get the numbers and they won’t keep the peace.

“Simply by the numbers, we were going to be overwhelmed. It’s a matter of math, not planning,” Mayor Frey said of his decision to let the precinct burn. “Our resources were beyond tapped. We had around 30 to 50 priority one calls that weren’t being responded to at any given moment, on top of what was happening. We were overwhelmed. Every available officer was out.”

The Insurrection Act was designed to allow the president to deploy both the military and the state National Guard to quell a violent rebellion. And that’s what this is.

They don’t have the numbers to start burning down federal facilities… yet. If they don’t get those numbers, it won’t be for lack of trying.

America cannot afford another repeat of “fiery but mostly peaceful protests” designed to thwart law enforcement enforcing laws. President Trump has signaled that he’s willing to act boldly to end this bloody foolishness. Now that the barbarians are literally at the gates, it’s time.
