Minneapolis Residents Protest ICE Actions in Cold Weather

Protesters march in icy conditions to protest against the Trump administration’s anti-immigration policies, demanding ICE leave the city.

Thousands marched in Minneapolis, braving temperatures as low as minus 29°C to protest President Trump’s immigration policies and demand the removal of ICE agents. Many businesses closed in solidarity for a “general strike,” while clergy members were arrested for blocking roads at the airport, calling for accountability following the shooting of a US citizen by ICE. Organisers framed the event as a major protest against federal immigration enforcement, highlighting increasing tensions in the state. Critics assert that Trump’s aggressive tactics have intensified political polarization and community unrest.
