The Spin

Right narrative

Outnumbered and facing hostility, pro-ICE demonstrators exercising their First Amendment rights were violently attacked by a mob of counter-protesters who chased, assaulted and stabbed organizer Jake Lang. The violent counter-protest that left people injured demonstrates the dangerous radicalization of left-wing activists who cannot tolerate opposing viewpoints. The chaos highlights the failure of local authorities and urgently calls for the invocation of the Insurrection Act to restore order.

Left narrative

Minneapolis residents and anti-ICE activists united to defend their diverse community by chasing away far-right provocateur and pardoned Jan. 6 rioter Jake Lang, who arrived to incite division through hate speech and threats to burn a Quran. The largely peaceful counter-protest prevented neo-Nazi agitators from exploiting tensions over federal immigration tactics that killed Renee Good, a U.S. citizen and mother of three who carried only a whistle while masked agents had guns.
