INTELLIGENCE BRIEF – PUBLIC DISSEMINATION
From: Phillip C. Parrish, Retired U.S. Navy LCDR, 2026 Republican Candidate for Governor of Minnesota
Date: March 1, 2026
Subject: Operation Shadow Hunt Alert – Anti-ICE Syndicate Actively Piggybacking on Iranian Regime Chaos to Plot Domestic Disruption
Distribution: All Law Enforcement Partners, Operation Shadow Hunt, FBI Joint Terrorism Task Force (MN), DHS, Local Sheriffs, and Patriotic Minnesotans
Brothers and sisters in blue and those standing watch for this constitutional republic — stay frosty.
These anti-human, anti-American networks never sleep. While the United States and Israel just delivered precision strikes against the Iranian terror machine, the same Minnesota syndicate we exposed in January’s intelligence brief is already exploiting the moment. They are not “protesters.” They are coordinated racketeers treating foreign regime setbacks as fuel for domestic chaos, obstruction, and voter-bloc protection. Their goal: tie up ICE, radicalize the next wave, and keep the fraud pipeline flowing.
We are not calling for vigilantism. We are calling for law enforcement to hunt — lawfully, relentlessly, and without apology — every individual and entity planning harm under the cover of “resistance.” Name, location, pattern: documented below. The indictments from the Cities Church desecration (39+ charged and counting) were just the opening act. The sequel is live.
Active Nodes & Command Elements (Real-Time Indicators)
1. Melt the ICE MN Network
• Headquarters: South Minneapolis (Cedar-Riverside / Little Mogadishu corridor)
• Command platform: Closed Signal chats + melttheicemn.com
• Fresh activity: “Bring the Heat” Week just wrapped yesterday (Feb 25–March 1). Trained 2,000+ disruptors (hundreds imported from out of state) in rapid-response patrols, legal observing, and “ICE out” tactics. Organizers explicitly told trainees to “bring these lessons home” and tie them to “global struggles.” Translation: Iran chaos = new training oxygen.
2. ANSWER Coalition + Palestinian Youth Movement (PYM) – Twin Cities Chapter
• Operational hub: Minneapolis (coordinating with Twin Cities DSA at their regular meeting spots)
• Real-time move: Issued emergency “National Day of Action” calls the minute U.S.-Israel strikes hit Iran. Minnesota turnout framed as “ICE out + resistance to imperialism.” Same coalition that ran the January church storming and the Jan 30 national shutdown. Direct overlap with Melt the ICE trainings.
3. Twin Cities DSA
• Meeting locations: Standard south Minneapolis DSA hall + U of M campus chapters
• Chatter indicator: Hosted Melt the ICE training day (Feb 25) and immediately pivoted to co-sponsor ANSWER/PYM Iran-linked actions. Their platform still pushes “rapid response reserves” and “abolish ICE” resolutions for 2026.
4. COPAL MN, OutFront MN, CAIR-MN
• Base: St. Paul / Minneapolis nonprofit offices
• Role: Mutual aid, bail funds, and “Islamophobia” legal shield. Running the Immigrant Rapid Response Fund that bankrolled the trainings. CAIR-MN amplifies anything that smells like deflection when the fraud-terror pipeline gets poked.
5. Faith-Based Enablers (Isaiah Project & Multi-Faith Clergy Networks)
• Key site: Cities Church, Minneapolis (already desecrated Jan 18 — 30 fresh indictments just dropped)
• Current play: Suing DHS for “access” to detainees while the same clergy coordinate with the Signal chats. Over 100 arrested in prior actions; still filing paperwork to tie up ICE operations.
Puppet Masters Providing Political Oxygen (Cross-Referenced from January Accountability List)
• Gov. Tim Walz & Lt. Gov. Peggy Flanagan – Statehouse command
• AG Keith Ellison – Lead plaintiff in anti-ICE lawsuit
• Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey & St. Paul Mayor Melvin Carter – Co-plaintiffs, local protection
• State Reps. Alex Falconer, Brad Tabke, Athena Hollins, Liish Kozlowski – Publicly bragged about running ICE Watch shifts
• Amanda Koehler (Walz political strategist) – Documented Southside RR admin and Land Stewardship Project tie-in
These are the same players who slow-walked audits on the $1B+ Somali fraud rings while the money flowed overseas. Now they’re green-lighting the next round of obstruction by looking the other way.
Pattern of Exploitation
Every time Iran, Hamas, or their proxies take a hit abroad, these networks spin it into “no work, no school, no shopping” actions + fresh ICE Watch patrols at the Whipple Federal Building (ICE HQ, Minneapolis). They trained the next generation last week and are already exporting the playbook. This is not free speech — it is racketeering with a foreign-policy wrapper.
Operation Shadow Hunt directive:
Stay frosty. Monitor the Signal channels, the Melt the ICE site, ANSWER/PYM socials, and DSA event calendars. Document every coordination between foreign-regime cheerleading and domestic ICE obstruction. Build the RICO cases. Seize the bail funds and training grants. These networks have spent every minute of every day plotting harm — from church desecrations to terror-finance-adjacent fraud. Law enforcement has the tools. Use them.
We do this the right way — under the Constitution, under God, with truth and justice as our weapons. No vigilantes. Just relentless, lawful pursuit of those who intend harm to this republic.
The Minnesota we are fighting for:
A constitutional republic where churches are sanctuaries for worship, not riot staging grounds. Where ICE enforces the law without political handcuffs. Where fraudsters and their foreign-sympathizer enablers are in orange jumpsuits instead of luxury cars. Where our farmers, fathers, veterans, and families raise children in peace under the protection of real borders and real rule of law. A state that honors Jesus Christ, honors the Constitution, and makes the guilty sweat.
The networks are exposed. The indictments are rolling. The hunt is on.
Stay righteous. Stay frosty.
