James O’Keefe was reporting live from Minneapolis when he was surrounded by hundreds of leftists and chased away.
“My team and I are in downtown Minneapolis right now. We still have undercover journalists inside the mob. I was at the scene of the shooting this morning and barely made it out alive,” said Mr O’Keefe.

He continued: “Hundreds surrounded us. They threw ice bottles and ripped off my bulletproof vest. They even followed us all the way back to our hotel.”

The activists have an ingenious system where they track cars they think are opponents and follow them. The driver receives death threats like this:

The activists have contacts inside the hotels who report on who is staying there and their movements. They simply want to chase people from the city that they don’t like, and the methods are such that people are intimidated. It’s a paramilitary state they’re building, like they started in Seattle and Portland in 2020. Minneapolis is a continuation.

It’s the collaboration between Antifa, the police, the governor, the mayor and the district attorneys that makes it reasonable to talk about a parallel state. It is founded on violence.

HASTER: I’ve never experienced anything like this in my life. I’ve had contact with the cartel and witnessed some crazy things in the desert in ’24. But what strikes me is how organised these Minneapolis agitators are. They have observers all over the city and suburbs, on street corners, even 30 minutes away from downtown. They have people in hotels working with them and giving them signals, which made it hard for us to shake off the stalkers when my cover was blown. Usually, I shook off my pursuers. Not this time. We switched places THREE times. I recorded and posted this while leaving Wayzata, while they were STILL watching us. We all agreed that we needed to publicise the threats as soon as possible, even though we still had people in the field with hidden cameras.

Earlier around noon, while @camhigby was publishing his report on the Signal threads, I found myself inside what appeared to be a completely autonomous zone. No police present. The police were asked to leave. I identified myself as press people, and they said they would kill press people and not let me go. My skin was completely covered because it was so cold. But because they couldn’t verify who I was, they screamed and started throwing ice bottles at us. One hit @SKRUCHTENMMA, a marine who was with me. They patted him down as if THEY were the authorities and tried to confiscate any weapons. They were intent on destroying our vehicle before we even got to it. I will have a full video report soon.

But the bigger picture here is more important. I am angry. But not at the agitators. I’m already angry at people who don’t understand what we’re dealing with and won’t do anything about it. When I got to the suburbs, I felt like I was in a simulation.

I think the American people need to wake up. This moment is a warning of where we’re headed. Fear makes people only care about their money and their families – I understand that. But when fear turns inward, when self-preservation and greed replace moral courage, evil goes unchallenged.

And history shows that what we ignore today will affect us all tomorrow.

Ironically and amazingly, I see that these communists do not fear death in the same way that most good people seem to do. The only thing they fear is being found out. And that’s good news, because it may be our only chance.

I’m serious about investigating prosecutors myself if they don’t hold these fraudsters and violent gangsters in Minnesota accountable for what they do. Stay tuned for the videos.
