Dramatic standoff in Minnesota as federal agents with weapons drawn square up to Ilhan Omar's 'woke army' with tensions set to boil over
Daily Mail UK ^ | January 10, 2026 | Alyssa Guzman

Tensions in Minnesota reached a boiling point Saturday as Representative Ilhan Omar faced off with agents just four days after 37-year-old mother Renee Nicole Good was shot dead by ICE during a protest.

Omar, 43, was flanked by Representatives Angie Craig and Kelly Morrison outside an ICE detention facility around 9am on Saturday as they attempted to gain access for a tour, but were denied entry, according to Axios.

They arrived to the Whipple Federal Building in St. Paul after Omar said she had called to tell the agency she and the two others would be arriving.

They were initially let into the facility, before being swiftly led out after 'two officials then got the message' of their arrival, Axios said.

Omar, who was elected in the House of Representatives in 2018, said she saw two planes departing the facility, but she was told they were not deportation flights. The aircraft reportedly were taking detainees to other facilities.

Politicians are allowed to visit ICE buildings, but the federal agency has attempted to limit access and have accused Democrats of using the visits as political theater.

Omar and the other representatives said the visit was part of an oversight visit and that they were invited by invited former acting director, The Minnesota Star Tribune said.

'We were initially invited in to do our Congressional oversight and to exercise our Article I duties,' Omar said.

'Shortly after we were let in, two officials came in and said they received a message that we were no longer allowed to be in the building and that they were rescinding our invitation and denying any further access to the building.'

While inside, Omar said the trio saw around 20 people being detained, The Star Tribune reported.

The Daily Mail has contacted DHS for comment.

It is a Muslim thing where Somali men let their women do the public protesting.

Haven’t noticed any Somali men on the front lines.

> attempted to gain access for a tour <

These Democrats amaze me, and not in a good way. They evidently think that a detention facility is something like a museum. Check in at the front desk, then wander around and look at all the exhibits.

And maybe visit the gift shop on the way out.

And I think the policy should this: the house members can come in one a time. That way no political theater happens.

Send all the ‘RAT delegation to the El Salvador prison before a communist judge can put a stay on the process.

Does the facility have its own airport?

Did you SEE the Somali Muslim men? They look like they couldn’t find their way out of a closet.

“The Democrat Party stands with the criminals.”

Criminals are their donors and their base.

In a way, the Democrat party is truly representing their constituency.

The only thing that could stop them is the criminal justice system which is clearly being paid to look the other way.

“said she saw two planes departing the facility”
This is a lie! The facility is next to the MSP Int’l Airport. She may have see two flights depart, but she had no idea where they came from. May have been democrats going on taxpayer funded vacations, for all she knew.

“Did you SEE the Somali Muslim men? They look like they couldn’t find their way out of a closet.”

Maybe that is why the daycare had a hole behind the water heater in the closet? The man was trying to find his way out?

It is 21F in St Paul right now.

Water cannons would be sufficient.
