Earlier today, reports emerged about a pre-dawn raid in Minneapolis that seemed to be part of the city’s ongoing efforts to enforce immigration laws. It has been revealed that the Department of Homeland Security was apprehending an self-described Antifa goofball who had threatened to dox and kill ICE agents. Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche reported the arrest on X:

The Justice Department with @ICEgov HSI arrested a self-identified anti-ICE Antifa TERRORIST in Minneapolis today. Conspire and threaten to assault, kill and doxx officers, and you’ll find yourself in federal custody facing the full force of justice.
The DOJ has identified the individual as Kyle Wagner, a 37-year-old resident of Minneapolis. According to Townhall, Wagner had been evading authorities since late January. He previously posted videos urging his followers to engage in armed resistance against what he referred to as “Nazi gunmen.”
In a more recent video, Wagner claimed that his Venmo account had been shut down and expressed the need for legal assistance, arguing that his speech had been unfairly labeled as “inciting violence.”
Self-identified Antifa member Kyle Wagner was arrested today on federal threat and cyberstalking charges following alleged murder and assault threats against ICE, announced United States Attorney Jerome F. Gorgon, Jr. Wagner, 37 of Minneapolis, is expected to make an initial appearance in federal court today.
“This man allegedly doxxed and called for the murder of law enforcement officers, encouraged bloodshed in the streets, and proudly claimed affiliation with the terrorist organization Antifa before going on the run,” said Attorney General Pamela Bondi. “Today’s arrest illustrates that you cannot run, you cannot hide, and you cannot evade our federal agents: if you come for law enforcement, the Trump Administration will come for you.”
“It’s no surprise that an Antifa terrorist is allegedly threatening to kill and assault federal law enforcement officers as they dutifully remove criminal threats from neighborhoods,” said Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche. “After all, this is what Antifa is about, lawlessness and violence. But under the leadership of President Trump and Attorney General Bondi, there is no safe haven for terrorists and no protection from the full weight of justice.
“We know that a ‘worthless man plots evil, and his speech is like a scorching fire.’ And Wagner’s alleged actions were an attempt to spread fire into our peaceful community. That is not going to happen,” said U.S. Attorney Gorgon.
There could not be a better example of the phrase, “Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.” This idiot’s unhinged rage will likely land him a nice, long prison sentence.

Meanwhile, Fox News correspondent Bill Melugin shared a picture of Wagner’s arrest – where he isn’t looking so big and bad:

In addition, he confirmed that the predawn raid mentioned in previous reporting was to apprehend this goofball:
We are told this was in connection to this video, where agitators showed up to curse at federal agents as they made this arrest. https://t.co/YTgwWGZxtS

Attorney General Pam Bondi also hailed the arrest, warning that anyone who would come for law enforcement that “the Trump administration will come for you.”
If you come for law enforcement, the Trump Administration will come for you.
Thank you to our outstanding agents for executing yet another arrest — this time, an Antifa domestic terrorist. https://t.co/QmpErJOpb3

Wagner is expected to make his initial appearance in federal court today, according to the Department of Justice.
For years, the Left has insisted Antifa doesn’t exist at all. Joe Biden famously dismissed it as merely “an idea.” When the Trump administration publicly labeled Antifa a terrorist threat and pushed for aggressive enforcement, the media and Democrats melted down. Chuck Todd even claimed he didn’t know what Antifa was.
Now reality intrudes.
A man covered in Antifa tattoos, wearing an Antifa hoodie, is arrested for threatening federal agents.
