Notice Anything Familiar About These Participants at CNN's MN Town Hall? The Trump White House Recognized It.

Townhall ^ | 01/28/2026 | Matt Vespa

mean, this is unsurprising, but sort of hilarious that the network tried to cast this as some ordinary citizen town hall event. CNN held one with Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey and others, during which they took audience questions about the city's situation regarding the Trump administration’s deportation agenda. Two people, Renee Good and Alex Pretti, have been killed as they recklessly interfered in police actions.

Good rammed into an ICE agent and got shot on January 7. Pretti tussled with Border Patrol agents on January 24. Both were left-wing activists and agitators whose own actions got them killed. Did they deserve to die for having horrible opinions on the issues? No, but assaulting federal officers can get you killed. I don’t know what else today. There are choices and consequences, and both of these clowns chose poorly.

So, given that this city is a deep blue cesspool, it’s not shocking that its participants were all on the ActBlue registry. Trump White House Communications Director Steven Cheung was keeping score:

This CNN Townhall is a joke. They stacked the audience with Democrat donors and liberal activists.

Jacob Frey claims to have never seen 1/13 video, rushes to dismiss. MPD Chief O'Hara slams CBP/ICE procedures and tactics on the streets. pic.twitter.com/nalQAXo4Nf— Jorge Bonilla (@BonillaJL) January 29, 2026

Also, Mayor Jacob Frey knows the Pretti narrative is cooked. He wasn’t some kind nurse and good neighbor. The man was a lunatic who was ready to throw down with the Feds, as seen in the new January 13 footage, where he spat on agents and kicked the taillight off a federal vehicle. He suffered broken ribs from a previous confrontation before being shot on January 24. So, yeah, again, another liberal narrative burned to ash.

Minnesota, the land of a million dykes ...

[PGR88]

DC deep-state MSM propaganda used to be much more subtle

Now its approaching Soviet levels of undisguised absurdity

[bray]

Bet Antifa had guards at the door to make sure no Repubs got in.

[ProgressingAmerica]

This is how left wing media control the narrative, is by creating the narrative.

[TigersEye]

Like Tom Homan said about the street agitators; “We’re gonna make you famous!”

Keep doing this to all the commie rebels.

They're stuck in their own echo chamber. They do not know a person who is "far-right" in their own social circle. So no one is telling them that the whole thing is ridiculous.

[McGruff]

Good catch.

ActBlue is a major online fundraising platform for
<><> Democratic candidates,
<><>progressive crap,
<><>and nasty left-leaning garbage.

A “nonprofit,” it has faced scrutiny and investigations
regarding its operations and handling of donor data.

[Liz]

ActBlue is currently under investigation by House committees and several state attorneys general, including Texas, focusing on potential fraud, illicit foreign donations, and weak donor verification practices.

Lawmakers issued subpoenas for ActBlue documents and FBI briefings in 2025.

"DC deep-state MSM propaganda used to be much more subtle Now its approaching Soviet levels of undisguised absurdity"

That indicates that the leftist filth doesn't care that we know what they're up to. The mask is off and I guarantee that once the Left again seizes power in America, normal folks will be made to suffer like never before.

Persecutions of non-leftists and especially White Trump supporters, will be epic. And this time, if the degenerate left seizes power, it will seize it for good.

[Rocco DiPippo]

Sick freaks and envious losers.

Minnesotans, no not you paid bused in wackos and not you low IQ somalis 'smallies'.

ICE is looking to remove the scum who have invaded the USA.

Remember what these people are, these are the cast offs of mexico, central and south America and the third world as well as china, africa, india and many enemy moslem nations and groups paid for by soros like billionaires using their money to attack the American people in an undeclared war. And to be sure it is a war with real causalities (VICTIMS OF ILLEGAL ALIENS MEMORIAL) http://ojjpac.org/memorial.asp.

These cowardly attackers are assisted by our own quislings, collaborators who are paid and self retarded idealistic fellow travelers. Many are communists, "ANTIFA", socialists, Burn, Loot and Murder "BLM", and or just plain fascists.

That includes the woke, demoRATs, Lip service liberals the soso-socialists and the NGO's that until recently were funded by usaid and the democratic party.

Take you and your families protection in to your own hands. Arm your selves my friends, CCW, get pepper ball gun, pepper spray, bear, carry a pocket knife, a belt knife, be ready and when one of these barely human monsters try to attack you or your family or friends; let them be met by a hail of bullets fired in self defense.

The governor of Minnesota and the mayor of Minneapolis as well as other leftists are screaming for a war, do not think that they will not go after the average citizens, women, children, the elderly are fair game to them, the have swarmed and assaulted a church, they have menaced children.

We are a hands breath away from riot and ruin. Be hyperventilate protect your self and your family.

The lame stream media has ignored it and memory holed it but we must remember, we must band together for our own protection and stand again the tyranny of the the vicious left.

[Kudsman]

Today is the big national strike day? Can’t wait to see how this will be ginned up by the lamestreams. A day of doing nothing to honor child sodomizers won’t be the headline though, can’t have the truth make an appearance.

Your comment shows you are wanting to try to stir up fear or at least doom and gloom.
If you cared at all about the country you’d post ways or ideas of what to do to not allow more harm to come to innocent US Citizens.

Paul Revere didn’t just give words to Citizens, but showed and took action. As did many decent towns people.
What are you doing or suggesting to help?

[Adder]

Paul Revere didn’t just give words to Citizens, but showed and took action.

Well, I don’t have a horse but I can shout “Sick freaks and losers are coming!”

People attacking ICE aren’t “innocent American citizens”.

Time may tell that all of the Town Hall attendees were all on the DOJ list of fraudsters receiving stolen taxpayer funds
