State of Minnesota: Bovino leaves, Feds prepare security forces
Two Minnesotans, Renee Good and Alex Pretti, were killed by Trump loyalists under the command of Greg Bovino during his short stint in the state.
MINNEAPOLIS — Greg Bovino’s short stature, jacked up mouth and inability to run longer than 5 yards failed to save his job as the on-ground commander for President Donald Trump’s loyalist forces within the Department of Homeland Security. While it’s a good thing dipshits like Bovino are removed from power, the federal government’s ongoing campaign to punish Minnesota continues.
Bovino has been the figurehead of the federal paramilitary forces, consisting of a wide range of federal agencies, that came into Minnesota to further the Trump regime’s ethnic cleansing program.
However, due to his brutality of leadership following several high profile failures in the state, which include the relentless observer documentation, mocking and outright hostility toward federal agents, he has been relegated back to his former position in California.
That brutality, often with the help of local cops, included attacking civilians across the Twin Cities metro area on several occasions with the use of tear gas, pepper spray, pepper balls and firearms.
@reportermark Community members responded to an attempted ICE abduction in Minneapolis, Minn. on Dec. 9, 2025. Like most ICE operations, it was a bumblefuck. Trump isn't sending his best and brightest. Agent Short Stack makes several appearances. #minnesota #ice #dhs #minneapolis

Two Minnesotans, Renee Good and Alex Pretti, were killed by Trump loyalists under the command of Bovino during his short stint in the state.
Federal authorities denounced both Good and Pretti as domestic terrorists and vowed to continue their terror campaign.
Video analysis by Bellingcat, an online investigative news organization, shows that the Trump’s regime’s claims about Pretti’s death, specifically that he threatened agents with a gun, are lies.
Meanwhile, Bovino went on a social media tour of Richfield, Minn. following the killing of Renee Good.
Gov. Tim Walz has since called out his local militia, the Minnesota National Guard, for a hearts and mind campaign at the Bishop Henry Whipple Building, the de facto ICE headquarters for the Midwest, at Ft. Snelling. The site has seen some of the most organized but unhinged attacks by Trump’s loyalist forces against civilians.
@reportermark This is only a fraction of the violence Department of Homeland Security agents, including ICE and Border Patrol, inflicted on civilians over the course of several days at the Bishop Henry Whipple building located in Ft. Snelling, Minn. The Whipple building is the de facto federal HQ in Minnesota, with several other agencies, including the FBI and the Federal Bureau of Prisons, stationing paramilitary forces loyal to President Donald Trump there. Following this violence, the Hennepin County Sheriff's Office has taken frontline command of the public area next to the Whipple building. Public works employees erected concrete barricades and high fences around the roadway next to the building. Trump's loyalist forces are now mostly seen driving out of the building's parking lot with their faces covered. Since the Sheriff's Office has taken over crowd control, DHS has ramped up it domestic terror campaign against the people in Minnesota. #borderpatrol #minneapolis #ice

Guard members handed out donuts and hot coffee to protestors; however, their orders about what to do in case of another uprising are unknown.
Local state militia leaders, along with the Minneapolis Police Department, another local security force whose loyalty remains in question, also set up check points across the Minneapolis neighborhood where Pretti was killed by federal agents under the guise of keeping the peace.
Please enjoy the video below of me making fun of ICE agents and their collaborators.
While state and local security forces have given lip service to investigating the killing of two civilians by federal agents, no arrests have been made for the killings nor for the ongoing obstruction and cover-up by the feds.
Earlier this week, Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey said they had good conversations with Trump, who said on social media that he and Walz are on a “similar wavelength,” regarding Trump's loyalist forces in the state.
Despite Frey saying some federal agents will leave the state, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has approved a DHS request to use all of Ft. Snelling for the retribution campaign against Minnesotans.
Ft. Snelling is a decommissioned military base once used for the United States' ethnic cleansing program against Minnesota’s native population.
Rumors of active duty troops being readied to deploy to Minnesota continue to be spread around the state and country.
In addition to the physical violence by federal security forces, two prominent civil rights leaders in Minnesota are facing federal charges for protesting a local pastor who also leads a local ICE field office.
While local and state leaders in Minnesota continue to bumblefuck their way through the ongoing occupation, residents have banded together by observing and tracking federal agents, as well as providing mutual aid like groceries, rides and escorts to the state’s immigrant population.
Here are some ways to support Minnesotans affected by ICE.
Whether the feds leave or not is anyone's guess, but here are some cheaper options for buying a gun. If Trump’s loyalist aren’t violating your civil rights now, they will be at some point.
@reportermark Buy a gun. Train with it. This nonviolent stuff will get you killed. ice #minneapolis #stpaul #secondamendment
