Far Leftist Are Now Stalking And Freaking Out Average Americans In Minneapolis Thinking They Are ICE Agents

A Minneapolis woman says she and her companion were stalked by anti-ICE activists for more than an hour after being falsely flagged in a local activist “ICE Database,” according to a viral post she shared on X.

Hailey West’s account of what happened reads like something out of a political thriller. West says that while she was driving through Minneapolis, multiple vehicles began following her and occupants aggressively insisted she was an Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent — even after she repeatedly insisted she was not.

“We were followed by multiple vehicles for over an hour,” West wrote. “We were told that we came up in the local ICE Watch group’s ‘ICE Database.’”
She added that at one point the group even demanded to see their IDs to prove they weren’t federal agents.

West’s experience is far from isolated. Across Minneapolis, anti-ICE networks have been actively tracking and confronting anyone they believe to be associated with federal immigration enforcement, often based on unverified tips and scans of license plates. What activists call “rapid response” isn’t just watching federal activity; it’s a self-organized dragnet. The groups deploy a network of chat rooms and local “dispatch” channels that activists use to share suspected sightings and coordinate confrontations.

Anti-ICE activists in Minneapolis have openly embraced aggressive tactics, calling themselves rapid responders, neighborhood observers, and plate checkers, terms that speak to a militant grassroots effort to militarize civilian tracking of law enforcement.
