January 2026 — More arrests outside the Bishop Henry Whipple Building. From what i’ve seen, it looks like the Border Patrol officers around it have been swapped out with those from the United States Bureau of Prisons along with the Department of Homeland Security police. The building was reportedly on a list last year to be sold off by the General Services Administration. At the time, this news prompted Senator Amy Klobuchar and Tina Smith to write a letter to GSA stating “If this building is abruptly closed, it will cause immediate harm to Minnesota veterans and military readiness”. It’s now being used as an ICE detention and enforcement facility. Yesterday, US Representatives Ilhan Omar, Jackie Craig and Kelly Morrison visited the facility only to be asked to leave and blocked from access shortly after arriving.
