The group known as the \u201cMinnesota 15\u201d is primarily linked through Direct Action MN, a loose group of Twin Cities residents that provided community defense during the ICE surge.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">According to the 94-page indictment, the defendants\u2019 charges stem not from one specific incident, but from coordinating with rapid response groups to alert people to ICE agents and organizing blockades at the city\u2019s ICE headquarters. Prosecutors have characterized the group as affiliated with \u201cantifa\u201d, a decentralized group of people against fascism, which the Trump administration named a domestic terror organization last fall.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"dcr-vyhg7z\"><\/span><span class=\"dcr-1cipnsy\">Direct Action Minnesota forms a blockade in March.<\/span> Photograph: DoJ<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">\u201cThese are teachers and nurses and electricians,\u201d said Kelly Peterson, a Minneapolis organizer. \u201cThey just have to keep going to work, knowing that they did what 100,000 other people did, and that they got charged for it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">The case is the latest attempt by Trump\u2019s Department of Justice to criminalize resistance. Protesters in Chicago and Spokane, Washington, faced the same charges as the Minnesota 15, with mixed results; the Chicago case was tossed for prosecutorial misconduct, while the Spokane protesters, accused of forming a human wall to block an ICE bus, were convicted and face a maximum of six years in prison. Last month, protesters in Prairieland, Texas, dubbed part of a \u201cnorth Texas antifa cell\u201d by prosecutors, received sentences ranging from 30 to 100 years \u2013 one for simply moving a box of zines.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">\u201cThis is naked political repression, part of a nationwide trend,\u201d Isaac Sant, the lead defendant in the Minneapolis case, told the Guardian.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">Legal experts say the Minneapolis case is akin to Prairieland in its use of conspiracy law to target so-called antifa and in turn chill the resistance. But the charges in question are far less severe.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">Organizers in Minneapolis, meanwhile, have said they are not deterred.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">\u201cThey\u2019re trying to stop us and silence us and scare us,\u201d Treasure Thoreson, one of the Minneapolis defendants, told the Guardian. \u201cI\u2019m not going to let them scare me.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"an-expanding-dragnet\" class=\"dcr-8418j6\">An expanding dragnet<\/h2>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">In January, nearly 4,000 immigration agents flooded the streets of the Twin Cities for Operation Metro Surge, the largest immigration operation in national history. Residents responded quickly, bringing food and essentials to people in hiding and forming neighborhood-level watch groups to track ICE vehicles and alert neighbors to their presence. ICE agents pulled people from cars, forcefully entered homes and repeatedly teargassed observers. Two residents who had been monitoring ICE activity, Renee Good and Alex Pretti, were shot and killed by federal agents. No one<a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theatlantic.com\/ideas\/2026\/07\/alex-pretti-renee-good-accountability\/687792\/\" data-link-name=\"in body link\"> has been charged<\/a> for their deaths.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">Federal conspiracy charges were first brought against Minneapolis organizers in January during the height of Operation Metro Surge. Nine activists and journalists, including the former CNN anchor Don Lemon, were charged with conspiracy to impede religious freedom in connection with a protest at a church where a pastor is a field director for ICE.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">Following the formal end of Operation Metro Surge, another 30 people were indicted for the same protest. Monique Cullars-Doty, one of the defendants, spoke at a rally for the Minnesota 15 last week: \u201cWhile some of us might be a bit out of commission, it\u2019s up to you to continue to stand up and hold the line in Minnesota for our immigrant neighbors, our union workers and in solidarity with all those who are oppressed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"dcr-vyhg7z\"><\/span><span class=\"dcr-1cipnsy\">Federal agents use teargas on protesters in Minneapolis in January.<\/span> Photograph: Adam Gray\/AP<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">Legal experts and local organizers who spoke with the Guardian said the Minnesota 15 indictment was not a surprise. Three days after the Trump administration designated \u201cantifa\u201d a terrorist group in September, it released a memo directing the FBI\u2019s joint terrorism taskforce to target \u201cviolent and terroristic activities under the umbrella of self-described \u2018anti-fascism\u2019\u201d.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">According to Rachel Cohen, a Chicago-based attorney, the administration is trying to \u201cbuild this narrative \u2026 that there is some defined antifa group that exists in the United States, when there very much is not\u201d.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">One defendant in the Minneapolis case, Kyle Wagner, self-identifies as antifa. The prosecution appears to be using his association to apply the label to the entire group, Doyle said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">While the Minnesota 15 do not currently face terrorism charges, the indictment does call the group \u201cantifa\u201d, claiming the conspiracy was carried out using \u201cforce, intimidation, and threats\u201d \u2013 language Khalid interprets as a signal that prosecutors will seek a terrorism enhancement, which would increase the sentencing guidelines. Currently, the principal conspiracy charge in the case carries a maximum of six years. Two defendants are also charged with destruction of government property, which carries a 10-year maximum.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">In the Prairieland case, eight protesters were convicted of providing \u201cmaterial support to terrorists\u201d; part of the federal government\u2019s evidence of \u201cconspiring\u201d to support \u201cterrorism\u201d including owning a \u201cprinting press\u201d and distributing political zines. The judges in the case gave the defendants the harshest possible sentences, including for other defendants who took non-cooperating plea deals.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">\u201cThe same theory that they used to apply that enhancement in Prairieland, they could have used for all 1,500 of the January 6 protesters,\u201d Sufia Khalid, a defense attorney on the case, said. \u201cThey did not.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"the-prosecutors-darling\" class=\"dcr-8418j6\">\u2018The prosecutor\u2019s darling\u2019<\/h2>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">What set the Prairieland case apart from other protest cases, many legal experts say, was that a protester shot an officer during the Fourth of July noise demonstration. After setting off fireworks in solidarity with detainees in the Prairieland facility, some protesters broke off and vandalized employees\u2019 cars and security equipment.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">When a police officer arrived on the scene and drew his gun, an armed protester shot her rifle, hitting the officer in the shoulder. He survived. The protester was sentenced to 100 years. Others who left before the shooting were sentenced to 50 years.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">\u201cThe allegations here are much lower level than the most serious allegations in Prairieland,\u201d Jordan Kushner, a lawyer on the Minnesota 15 case, said. \u201cThere was no violence committed. No one was hurt.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">The Prairieland defendants were also tried in one of the country\u2019s more conservative federal districts; the Minnesota 15 will face jurors from a far more liberal region \u2013 one shaped by the aftermath of George Floyd\u2019s murder and years of sustained protest over state violence.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"dcr-vyhg7z\"><\/span><span class=\"dcr-1cipnsy\">Protesters hold signs in support of the Prairieland defendants in Texas.<\/span> Photograph: Dallas Morning News\/Hearst\/Getty Images<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">\u201cIt\u2019ll be much tougher for Minnesota to get a jury that\u2019s overwhelmingly receptive to what the government is doing,\u201d Kushner said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">Another thing that could change the course of the case is if any defendants take plea bargains, Xavier de Janon, a Prairieland defense lawyer, said. In the Prairieland case, five of the 22 Prairieland defendants <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.keranews.org\/criminal-justice\/2025-11-19\/prairieland-detention-center-shooting-defendants-alvarado-plead-guilty-federal-terrorism-related-charge-antifa\" data-link-name=\"in body link\">took plea deals<\/a>. Cooperating defendants received lighter sentences than those who did not, ranging from 22 months all the way to nine years.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">\u201cThe reason why the Prairieland prosecutions happened was because so many people talked to the government,\u201d De Janon said. \u201cIf the government gets anyone to cooperate and talk [in Minneapolis], the government won.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">The common thread between the two cases, though, is conspiracy. \u201cConspiracy is usually called the prosecutor\u2019s darling because it doesn\u2019t take a lot of evidence to prove,\u201d said De Janon. \u201cThe element of a conspiracy is that there was an agreement to commit a crime. And that\u2019s it.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"were-still-gonna-be-out-there\" class=\"dcr-8418j6\">\u2018We\u2019re still gonna be out there\u2019<\/h2>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">Despite the charges, Minneapolis organizers are not backing down. \u201cAny time that you\u2019re involved in a really heightened moment of resistance to a regime like this, you know that there\u2019s a possibility that infiltration is happening,\u201d Doyle said. \u201cYou can\u2019t be frozen by that fear.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">Increasingly, encrypted messaging apps such as Signal are appearing in protest prosecutions. In the Minnesota 15 case, the prosecution has 15 to 16 terabytes of Signal chats, which have not been made available to the defense. In the Prairieland case, the FBI made copies of messages that had appeared on a defendant\u2019s lock screen even after the app was deleted. Apple has since <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.404media.co\/apple-fixes-bug-that-let-fbi-extract-deleted-signal-messages-after-404-media-coverage\/\" data-link-name=\"in body link\">patched<\/a> that security bug.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">Signal should be treated as if it is or could be public information, said organizers who spoke to the Guardian. \u201cYou have to assume that it is all being recorded and can all get read back to you in an indictment,\u201d Jonathan, an organizer who asked his last name not be used.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">The government maintains its investigative methods are <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/abcnews.com\/US\/drones-deployed-marches-spy-protesters-authorities\/story?id=71165057&amp;utm_source=chatgpt.com\" data-link-name=\"in body link\">lawful<\/a>. Whether those powers have become too expansive, however, remains a point of contention. States, even blue ones, have \u201creally sharpened surveillance\u201d in recent years, De Janon said, including under the Biden administration. Tools such as geofencing (a digital boundary to identify who is in an area), social media monitoring, <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/sahanjournal.com\/public-safety\/minneapolis-police-drone-program-city-council-privacy\/\" data-link-name=\"in body link\">drones<\/a>, <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.npr.org\/2026\/02\/23\/nx-s1-5722988\/dhs-lawsuit-biometrics-domestic-terrorism\" data-link-name=\"in body link\">facial recognition<\/a>, and digital forensics form a broad web of surveillance.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">\u201cTools were sharpened, and sharpened, and sharpened,\u201d he said, \u201cand now they\u2019re in the hands of this federal government that isn\u2019t afraid to use all of them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">While some organizers the Guardian spoke with were anxious upon learning of the indictment, most are aware of the risks of protesting. \u201cIt was always something you could get killed doing,\u201d Jonathan said, in reference to the deaths of Good and Pretti. \u201cThey shot someone, and then I still went and [protested].\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">ICE agents remain in Minneapolis, organizers say, and as long as they do, people will be out protesting and protecting their neighbors.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">\u201cI don\u2019t see our case as Trump\u2019s revenge for the resistance during Metro Surge,\u201d Doyle said. \u201cI see it more as the government attempting to break the resistance so that they can come back and do another round of spectacular violence in our community and claim victory.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">\u201cBut the resistance here was leaderless,\u201d he added. \u201cIt was mass resistance.
