James O’Keefe Goes Undercover Inside Minnesota Mob: Leftist Agitators Admit Who’s Funding Anti-ICE Protests (VIDEO)
January 28, 2026BREAKING: The Democrat Party just erupted in a MASS PANIC after they learned that Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard is personally involved in the investigation into 2020 Fulton County, Georgia voter fraud

A former Special Forces Warrant Officer witnessed organized resistance firsthand around the globe. What is going on in Minnesota isn’t a “protest,” it’s an insurgency.
An individual on Twitter reported a couple of days ago that he/she had obtained access to Signal and had “the sole intention of tracking down federal agents and impeding/assaulting/and obstructing them.”
In response to this, a former Special Forces Officer shared his observations and a warning (emphasis added):

As a former Special Forces Warrant Officer with multiple rotations running counterinsurgency ops—both hunting insurgents and trying to separate them from sympathetic populations—I’ve seen organized resistance up close. From Anbar to Helmand, the pattern is familiar: spotters, cutouts, dead drops (or modern equivalents), disciplined comms, role specialization, and a willingness to absorb casualties while bleeding the stronger force slowly.
What’s unfolding in Minneapolis right now isn’t “protest.” It’s low-level insurgency infrastructure, built by people who’ve clearly studied the playbook.
Signal groups at 1,000-member cap per zone. Dedicated roles: mobile chasers, plate checkers logging vehicle data into shared databases, 24/7 dispatch nodes vectoring assets, SALUTE-style reporting (Size, Activity, Location, Unit, Time, Equipment) on suspected federal vehicles. Daily chat rotations and timed deletions to frustrate forensic recovery. Vetting processes for new joiners. Mutual aid from sympathetic locals (teachers providing cover, possible PD tip-offs on license plate lookups). Home-base coordination points. Rapid escalation from observation to physical obstruction—or worse.
This isn’t spontaneous outrage. This is C2 (command and control) with redundancy, OPSEC hygiene, and task organization that would make a SF team sergeant nod in recognition. Replace “ICE agents” with “occupying coalition forces” and the structure maps almost 1:1 to early-stage urban cells we hunted in the mid-2000s.
The most sobering part? It’s domestic. Funded, trained (somewhere), and directed by people who live in the same country they’re trying to paralyze law enforcement in. When your own citizens build and operate this level of parallel intelligence and rapid-response network against federal officers—complete with doxxing, vehicle pursuits, and harassment that’s already turned lethal—you’re no longer dealing with civil disobedience. You’re facing a distributed resistance that’s learned the lessons of successful insurgencies: stay below the kinetic threshold most of the time, force over-reaction when possible, maintain popular support through narrative, and never present a single center of gravity.
I spent years training partner forces to dismantle exactly this kind of apparatus. Now pieces of it are standing up in American cities, enabled by elements of local government and civil society. That should keep every thinking American awake at night.
Not because I want escalation. But because history shows these things don’t de-escalate on their own once the infrastructure exists and the cadre believe they’re winning the information war.
We either recognize what we’re actually looking at—or we pretend it’s still just “activism” until the structures harden and spread.
Your call, America. But from where I sit, this isn’t January 2026 politics anymore.
It’s phase one of something we’ve spent decades trying to keep off our own soil.

The far-left, the Deep State, and Globalists are running an operation in the US similar to what they did in many places before. President Trump destroyed their efforts overseas by claiming we were now focusing on the Western Hemisphere, and the Deep State doesn’t like it.

FOX News reported that the “protesters” were very well organized.
It appears likely that Minnesota is just the beginning. The Deep State is desperate, with the players in place to destroy America.
The former USAID worker Rachel Sayre now works in Minneapolis. She was in locations around the world where the US partook in color revolutions. She appears to be doing the same in Minnesota.
Rachel Sayre is the City of Minneapolis Director of Emergency Management. She was previously a Senior Fraud Distributor with USAID.
Today, she called the lawful ICE operation in Minnesota an act of terrorism and compared the scene in Minnesota to what she claims she saw in Syria under ISIS.
Democrats are not living in reality.

Former Special Forces Officer: What’s Unfolding in Minneapolis Isn’t a “Protest,” It’s an Insurgency
January 27, 2026 by Joe Hoft
A former Special Forces Warrant Officer witnessed organized resistance firsthand around the globe. What is going on in Minnesota isn’t a “protest,” it’s an insurgency.
An individual on Twitter reported a couple of days ago that he/she had obtained access to Signal and had “the sole intention of tracking down federal agents and impeding/assaulting/and obstructing them.”
In response to this, a former Special Forces Officer shared his observations and a warning (emphasis added):

As a former Special Forces Warrant Officer with multiple rotations running counterinsurgency ops—both hunting insurgents and trying to separate them from sympathetic populations—I’ve seen organized resistance up close. From Anbar to Helmand, the pattern is familiar: spotters, cutouts, dead drops (or modern equivalents), disciplined comms, role specialization, and a willingness to absorb casualties while bleeding the stronger force slowly.
What’s unfolding in Minneapolis right now isn’t “protest.” It’s low-level insurgency infrastructure, built by people who’ve clearly studied the playbook.
Signal groups at 1,000-member cap per zone. Dedicated roles: mobile chasers, plate checkers logging vehicle data into shared databases, 24/7 dispatch nodes vectoring assets, SALUTE-style reporting (Size, Activity, Location, Unit, Time, Equipment) on suspected federal vehicles. Daily chat rotations and timed deletions to frustrate forensic recovery. Vetting processes for new joiners. Mutual aid from sympathetic locals (teachers providing cover, possible PD tip-offs on license plate lookups). Home-base coordination points. Rapid escalation from observation to physical obstruction—or worse.
This isn’t spontaneous outrage. This is C2 (command and control) with redundancy, OPSEC hygiene, and task organization that would make a SF team sergeant nod in recognition. Replace “ICE agents” with “occupying coalition forces” and the structure maps almost 1:1 to early-stage urban cells we hunted in the mid-2000s.
The most sobering part? It’s domestic. Funded, trained (somewhere), and directed by people who live in the same country they’re trying to paralyze law enforcement in. When your own citizens build and operate this level of parallel intelligence and rapid-response network against federal officers—complete with doxxing, vehicle pursuits, and harassment that’s already turned lethal—you’re no longer dealing with civil disobedience. You’re facing a distributed resistance that’s learned the lessons of successful insurgencies: stay below the kinetic threshold most of the time, force over-reaction when possible, maintain popular support through narrative, and never present a single center of gravity.
I spent years training partner forces to dismantle exactly this kind of apparatus. Now pieces of it are standing up in American cities, enabled by elements of local government and civil society. That should keep every thinking American awake at night.
Not because I want escalation. But because history shows these things don’t de-escalate on their own once the infrastructure exists and the cadre believe they’re winning the information war.
We either recognize what we’re actually looking at—or we pretend it’s still just “activism” until the structures harden and spread.
Your call, America. But from where I sit, this isn’t January 2026 politics anymore.
It’s phase one of something we’ve spent decades trying to keep off our own soil.

The far-left, the Deep State, and Globalists are running an operation in the US similar to what they did in many places before. President Trump destroyed their efforts overseas by claiming we were now focusing on the Western Hemisphere, and the Deep State doesn’t like it.

FOX News reported that the “protesters” were very well organized.
It appears likely that Minnesota is just the beginning. The Deep State is desperate, with the players in place to destroy America.
The former USAID worker Rachel Sayre now works in Minneapolis. She was in locations around the world where the US partook in color revolutions. She appears to be doing the same in Minnesota.
Rachel Sayre is the City of Minneapolis Director of Emergency Management. She was previously a Senior Fraud Distributor with USAID.
Today, she called the lawful ICE operation in Minnesota an act of terrorism and compared the scene in Minnesota to what she claims she saw in Syria under ISIS.
Democrats are not living in reality.

ABLECHILD: Psychiatric Experimental Drug Cocktails on Trial in Massachusetts
CALIFORNIA: From a Constitutional Republic to Dysfunctional Direct Democracy – Here’s a Solution
January 27, 2026 by Joe Hoft
A former Special Forces Warrant Officer witnessed organized resistance firsthand around the globe. What is going on in Minnesota isn’t a “protest,” it’s an insurgency.
An individual on Twitter reported a couple of days ago that he/she had obtained access to Signal and had “the sole intention of tracking down federal agents and impeding/assaulting/and obstructing them.”
In response to this, a former Special Forces Officer shared his observations and a warning (emphasis added):

As a former Special Forces Warrant Officer with multiple rotations running counterinsurgency ops—both hunting insurgents and trying to separate them from sympathetic populations—I’ve seen organized resistance up close. From Anbar to Helmand, the pattern is familiar: spotters, cutouts, dead drops (or modern equivalents), disciplined comms, role specialization, and a willingness to absorb casualties while bleeding the stronger force slowly.
What’s unfolding in Minneapolis right now isn’t “protest.” It’s low-level insurgency infrastructure, built by people who’ve clearly studied the playbook.
Signal groups at 1,000-member cap per zone. Dedicated roles: mobile chasers, plate checkers logging vehicle data into shared databases, 24/7 dispatch nodes vectoring assets, SALUTE-style reporting (Size, Activity, Location, Unit, Time, Equipment) on suspected federal vehicles. Daily chat rotations and timed deletions to frustrate forensic recovery. Vetting processes for new joiners. Mutual aid from sympathetic locals (teachers providing cover, possible PD tip-offs on license plate lookups). Home-base coordination points. Rapid escalation from observation to physical obstruction—or worse.
This isn’t spontaneous outrage. This is C2 (command and control) with redundancy, OPSEC hygiene, and task organization that would make a SF team sergeant nod in recognition. Replace “ICE agents” with “occupying coalition forces” and the structure maps almost 1:1 to early-stage urban cells we hunted in the mid-2000s.
The most sobering part? It’s domestic. Funded, trained (somewhere), and directed by people who live in the same country they’re trying to paralyze law enforcement in. When your own citizens build and operate this level of parallel intelligence and rapid-response network against federal officers—complete with doxxing, vehicle pursuits, and harassment that’s already turned lethal—you’re no longer dealing with civil disobedience. You’re facing a distributed resistance that’s learned the lessons of successful insurgencies: stay below the kinetic threshold most of the time, force over-reaction when possible, maintain popular support through narrative, and never present a single center of gravity.
I spent years training partner forces to dismantle exactly this kind of apparatus. Now pieces of it are standing up in American cities, enabled by elements of local government and civil society. That should keep every thinking American awake at night.
Not because I want escalation. But because history shows these things don’t de-escalate on their own once the infrastructure exists and the cadre believe they’re winning the information war.
We either recognize what we’re actually looking at—or we pretend it’s still just “activism” until the structures harden and spread.
Your call, America. But from where I sit, this isn’t January 2026 politics anymore.
It’s phase one of something we’ve spent decades trying to keep off our own soil.

The far-left, the Deep State, and Globalists are running an operation in the US similar to what they did in many places before. President Trump destroyed their efforts overseas by claiming we were now focusing on the Western Hemisphere, and the Deep State doesn’t like it.

FOX News reported that the “protesters” were very well organized.
It appears likely that Minnesota is just the beginning. The Deep State is desperate, with the players in place to destroy America.

Rachel Sayre is the City of Minneapolis Director of Emergency Management. She was previously a Senior Fraud Distributor with USAID.
Today, she called the lawful ICE operation in Minnesota an act of terrorism and compared the scene in Minnesota to what she claims she saw in Syria under ISIS.
Democrats are not living in reality.
