Minneapolis to see surge of 1,000 federal agents: ‘Tim Walz and Mayor Frey are going to be LIVID’

January 10, 2026 | | Print Article

Minnesota’s tough-talking tag team was expected to be “livid” after riling up rioters justified in surging assets into the Twin Cities for the twofold task of immigration enforcement and investigating fraud.

Following a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officer’s use of deadly force in self-defense against an activist driving her vehicle at him, seething leftists had intensified their calls for federal officials to leave.

Now, despite Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey (D) joining in the gnashing of teeth, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced additional forces amounting to a 50% increase in presence on the ground.

Fox News correspondent Matt Finn reported Friday afternoon, “1,000 additional Border Patrol agents are scheduled to surge Minneapolis very soon, per DHS sources including a senior official. There’s currently about 2k agents on the ground. DHS is sharply placing its focus on [Minneapolis-St. Paul]. Border Patrol tells us more immigration agents free up HSI investigators to continue probing the fraud.”

Following Finn’s report, journalist Nick Sortor shared video of Border Patrol agents removing protesters from the street as he stated in part, “Tim Walz and Mayor Frey are going to be LIVID … The unruly ‘protests’ are BACKFIRING. FLOOD THE ZONE!”

While the elected leaders had called on federal officials to “get the f*ck out,” insistence from leftists that the ICE agent who fatally shot Renee Good was in the wrong had come with increased violence in Minneapolis.

In addition to an unlawful assembly being declared after activists hunted the city’s downtown area in search of the hotel where federal officials were staying, numerous videos were circulating on the internet of radicals suggesting their own intent or encouraging others to come face-to-face with ICE brandishing firearms of their own with threats to kill, asserting, “There’s no waiting to the ballot box. We need to get to the bullet box.”

Since the fatal incident, many have viewed Walz’s ardent focus as a desperate attempt to distract from his own alleged culpability in massive amounts of fraud being uncovered in Minnesota, including the hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars that had been funneled through the Somali community for, among other things, alleged childcare fronts.

As Democrats appeared to be operating out of the standard radical playbook, aiming to use Alinsky tactics to control the narrative during an election year that could mean all the difference for the remainder of President Donald Trump’s administration as well as the outcome of the 2028 presidential election, reactions on social media expected to see more of the same “trained disruption” taking place in Minneapolis.

At the same time that desires were expressed to see even more federal agents deployed utilizing crowd control tools that would dampen the spirits of even the best-paid activists, the Democrats were ridiculed as “shouting the F-word at Trump and ICE didn’t work …”
