Pardoned Jan. 6 Rioter's Pro-ICE Rally Chased Off in Minneapolis

  • On Jan. 17, Jake Lang led a pro-ICE, anti-Islam rally outside Minneapolis City Hall that was cut short after counterprotesters overwhelmed and chased his group off the street, with Lang claiming he was stabbed and appearing bloodied as he left.

  • Beyond the downtown clash, the demonstrations intensified local-federal disputes with lawsuits and subpoenas involving Minneapolis's Somali American community and state officials.
