Open Letter to All Minnesotans: Don’t Let the DSA Racketeers Turn Our State into Their Personal Chaos Factory

Dear Fellow Minnesotans,

Today, January 20, 2026, right here in the heart of our constitutional republic, a crew of professional agitators is hosting what they call a “No-Work Workshop” under the banner of “Strike ICE Out of Minnesota.” This is no innocent gathering—it’s a calculated ploy to whip up fear, spread bald-faced lies, and bait hardworking folks into a so-called “general strike” on January 23. No work, no school, no shopping, they say. Sounds noble? Hardly. It’s a recipe for economic sabotage and street-level mayhem, all to protect the very criminal networks that have been looting our state for years. Let’s drag this into the light, spell out who’s really pulling the strings, and expose how these demons exploit the vulnerable—including innocent migrants trafficked here as pawns—to keep their grift machine humming.

First, the acronyms they’re hiding behind, because transparency isn’t their game. ICE stands for Immigration and Customs Enforcement, the federal agency tasked with upholding our nation’s laws by targeting convicted criminals—rapists, murderers, drug traffickers, and fraudsters who’ve broken into our country illegally. Not the boogeyman they’re painting. DSA is the Democratic Socialists of America, a radical outfit pushing full-throated socialism while embedding themselves like ticks in Minnesota’s political swamp. Their Twin Cities chapter is the local arm, masquerading as “multi-racial working-class power builders” while endorsing and propping up DFL syndicate players. EWOC? That’s the Emergency Workplace Organizing Committee, a volunteer front cooked up by the DSA and the United Electrical, Radio and Machine Workers of America (UE)—essentially a strike-training mill designed to grind businesses to a halt under the guise of “worker protections.” And DFL? Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party, Minnesota’s twisted version of the national machine, but let’s call it what it is: an organized crime syndicate blending political hacks, nonprofit grifters, corporate enablers, and street-level operators who’ve turned our taxpayer dollars into their personal ATM.

Who’s orchestrating this farce? Look no further than the Twin Cities DSA crew, who’ve been flooding X with fear porn for weeks—posts screaming about “federal agents terrorizing communities,” “kidnapping neighbors,” and “murdering” folks like Renee Good. Reality? ICE ops are laser-focused on scum like convicted child predators and gang members, with over 500 arrests in Minnesota this month alone. But these DSA propagandists twist a self-defense shooting—where Good reportedly tried to ram an agent during a takedown—into “ICE murder” to rile up crowds. Their “workshop” today? It’s a how-to on ditching your job, complete with “protections” that conveniently ignore the fallout: lost wages for families, shuttered small businesses, and chaos that echoes the 2020 riots they helped fuel. And the unions they’ve roped in? Outfits like SEIU Local 26, ATU Local 1005, UNITE HERE Local 17, and others are jumping on board, but don’t kid yourself—these are the same players who’ve long cozied up to the DFL racket, turning a blind eye to billions in stolen funds while chanting “solidarity.”

Here’s the raw truth: These demons don’t give a damn about you, your family, or the innocents they’re exploiting. They’re using fear—“ICE is coming for your roof!”—and lies—“evict ICE, not us!”—to create an environment ripe for violence, all while shielding their thieving empire. Remember the Feeding Our Future scam? That’s $250 million in federal COVID relief vanished into ghost kitchens and luxury cars, funneled through Somali-run “nonprofits” that the DSA orbits like moths to a flame. Broader picture: Over $1 billion in Minnesota welfare fraud, including daycare rip-offs and election shenanigans, now under federal probes that have Trump halting $129 million in funding. DSA-endorsed slugs like State Senator Omar Fateh? He’s knee-deep—his wife’s “housing” gig poised to cash in on his own bills, all while he dodges exposés on program fraud. These networks aren’t “community builders”; they’re racketeering operations laundering cash, some allegedly trickling to overseas terror groups like al-Shabaab. And the migrants? Many trafficked here against their will, crammed into exploitative jobs or fraud schemes, used as human shields and vote-harvesting fodder. The DSA syndicate pretends to “protect” them, but it’s cover—keep the borders porous, keep the grift flowing, and to hell with the human cost. Dark twist: Nothing screams “workers’ rights” like calling a strike to defend the fraudsters who stole meals from starving kids. Makes you wonder if their “no shopping” edict is just to hide the empty shelves their policies created.

As a lifelong Minnesotan, farmer, father, retired Navy intel officer, and faithful servant of Jesus Christ I know evil when I see it. Scripture tells us to expose the deeds of darkness (Ephesians 5:11), and this is it: a cabal that preys on the weak to line their pockets, sowing division and destruction in our great state. They don’t care about the trafficked souls dying in the shadows or the families bankrupted by their chaos. It’s all about power, control, and the next billion-dollar heist.

Minnesotans, don’t buy the bait. Stand for truth, law, and order. Reject this strike nonsense—go to work, send your kids to school, support our constitutional republic by holding these crooks accountable. In 2026, let’s dismantle this syndicate once and for all. Join me in the fight; the guilty are already sweating.

In Christ’s truth,
