ICE Mistakes Native Tribe Members for Illegal Aliens, Demands Treaty Deals Instead

KEY POINTS

•Oglala Sioux Tribe president Frank Star Comes Out emailed Interior Secretary Doug Burgum and Kristi Noem demanding release of four detained tribal members.
•The detained men were homeless and living under a Minneapolis bridge near Little Earth housing; ICE offered information only if tribe signed an agreement.
•The tribe refused the agreement citing treaty violations and called for aggressive legal action, with other tribes possibly joining the fight.

In a plot twist so confused even a Marvel timeline couldn’t explain, ICE decided detaining four Oglala Sioux Tribe members—homeless guys living under a Minneapolis bridge near Little Earth housing—was somehow a great idea. Tribe president Frank Star Comes Out fired off a memo to Interior Secretary Doug Burgum and Kristi Noem (who the tribe recently banned from Pine Ridge Reservation for 'cartel' comments) demanding their immediate release. ICE’s response? They’d share info only if the tribe signed a cooperation deal—requests politely declined due to pesky things called 'treaties.' Meanwhile Fort Snelling, site of the Dakota 38+2 executions, hosts these very citizens, making the whole scene a historical bronze medalist in ridiculous irony.

ICE holding US citizens illegally, then demanding signed agreements to discuss it—reminds me of an evil landlord threatening to disclose your eviction if you pay rent twice.

The only thing ICE’s missing is a welcome mat saying 'No Native American Inside Without Permission' while simultaneously arresting citizens for unauthorized citizenship.
