🚨Last night, in Minneapolis, federal agents fired green chemical gas into a residential neighborhood after community members showed up to document what was happening on their own block.
Let’s be very clear about what that means…
This wasn’t a federal courthouse.
This wasn’t federal property.
This was people standing in the streets where they live… streets lined with houses, apartments, kids, babies, and pregnant people.
That green gas didn’t just hit people outside. It spread through the neighborhood, into yards and homes.
Agents also threw flash bangs at a family trying to leave because of the smoke, even though they had small children, including a 6-month-old who was later taken to the hospital by ambulance.
And, the green gas matters. This isn’t “normal” tear gas.
That same green smoke has been documented before… in Portland… where it was used by federal agents to “protect” federal buildings.
Independent testing found it contained hexachloroethane, which produces zinc chloride smoke when deployed. The U.S. military stopped using it decades ago because of how toxic it is.
Exposure to this gas is linked to burning skin and eyes, coughing, vomiting, chest pain, and serious respiratory injury, with the risk of delayed and long-term lung damage. This is especially dangerous for infants, children, pregnant people, and anyone with asthma or other respiratory conditions.
Now, federal agents are using it in neighborhoods.
And on top of that… ICE and other federal agents are not supposed to be doing crowd control in residential areas at all.
Their authority is limited to specific federal functions. Crowd control in city streets is not one of them. They do not have blanket jurisdiction to gas neighborhoods because people are in their own neighborhood streets.
So what we’re watching is federal agents:
• acting outside their role
• performing crowd control where they have no jurisdiction
• firing toxic green gas into civilian neighborhoods
• and exposing families inside their own homes to chemicals that cause real physical harm.
This isn’t public safety.
This isn’t lawful enforcement.
This is the federal government treating American neighborhoods like hostile territory… and using chemical weapons to do it.
That should alarm everyone, because there is nothing stopping this from happening in your neighborhood next.
