Girl Scouts moving cookie sales online in response to ICE actions
Twin Cities Pioneer Press ^ | February 11, 2026 | Talia McWright

It’s that time of year that some people forget about, until it happens: A young girl wearing a badge or tie appears at your door or in the grocery store sporting a cheerful smile and offering the treat you suddenly crave: Girl Scout Cookies.

Yes, it is indeed Girl Scout Cookie season, but this year will look different as many scouts will be selling cookies online rather than knocking door-to-door.

“Given the community unrest and the instability in our communities, many of our Girl Scouts are choosing not to sell cookies in person,” Girl Scouts River Valley chief experience officer Susan Andersson said.

From now until March 29, Girl Scouts River Valleys’ cookie program will go digital. That includes 49 counties in Minnesota and Wisconsin plus Osceola County in Iowa.

Yes it's biased reporting, yet I'm thinking there's a real story in there somewhere.
But what is it?

Are the Girl Scouts harboring illegal aliens?
Or rather they just don't want to get caught in the middle of a riot?

The real story is that liberals poop on everything in order to impose their values on the rest of us.

I guess they don’t mind not getting 90% of their cookie sales.

Well, the lesbos have taken control of the cookie girls so I’m not surprised. I won’t be buying any anyway so what the heck. I don’t care.

The Girl Scout sales child labor racket was contributing to abortion via PP until recently

Of course they’ll be in favor of harboring illegal aliens by use of minors and their dumb parents

I’m hoping this means I don’t have to see them anywhere What a treat. We don’t purchase anything to eat that has a paragraph for an ingredient it’s besides

The little girls accosted me outside of Kroger this week. As I did LAST year, I told their mothers that GS is pro-abortion and pro-gay. They didn’t believe me, same as last year. I told them to dig deep into the GS website, same as last year.

The girl scouts don’t have time to sell cookies when they’re on the streets “protesting” with their pack leaders. Whatever they’re called. Either way. I won’t buy their cookies until they allow MEN dressed as women in their ranks.

The real story is the same story it’s been forever: GSA doesn’t want their scouts near trouble. They will stop going to certain neighborhoods because of stranger-danger or high rates of crime. Unless someone shows some proof that it’s specifically an ICE problem, they’re just doing what they always do and playing it safe.

Girl Scouts support abortion.

Been tempted to call Girl Scouts peddling cookies outside stores “Baby Killers”.

Or ask them why their organization supports killing babies

Ppl need to wake up to the evil before their eyes and running their lives.

The story is that the Girl Scouts have not been selling cookies door to door for at least a decade.

But now they are cooking up some excuse to officially end it.

“””Put the Girl Scouts out of business.”””

Yup. They just use the girls to rake in millions of dollars so they can support their liberal causes.

I don’t recall ever buying any even though I have been accosted by them many times at stores.

The only time I buy anything from any kids organization like Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts or a school sports team is if the kids are selling the product themselves. The young girls were out in 25 degree weather in front of the supermarket in my community two weeks ago and I bought five boxes. But online sales? No thanks. And when the email goes around work to buy something for a colleague’s kid’s sports team, no thanks. The kids need to go door to do or set up a stand themselves.
