=== Somali Neighborhood ICE Raids (05:14) ===

[00:00:00]  So this Somali girl claims the ICE agents beat the hell out of her and called her the horrible N-word.
[00:00:08]  That's totally credible.
[00:00:10]  Check this out.
[00:00:11]  Protect.
[00:00:12]  But now I would like to call Nasser Ahmed for her to test him in.
[00:00:17]  See if she works.
[00:00:18]  Does this mic work?
[00:00:19]  Yes, it works.
[00:00:20]  Hello.
[00:00:21]  You can see my feet.
[00:00:22]  Okay, yeah.
[00:00:22]  This mic works.
[00:00:24]  You're at a press conference with a mic in front of you.
[00:00:26]  Does this mic work?
[00:00:27]  The dude was just talking.
[00:00:29]  He's probably nervous.
[00:00:31]  Hi, hello.
[00:00:32]  I am very grateful to have this opportunity to speak in front of everyone.
[00:00:38]  And thank you to my senator for representing me and the people behind me for representing me.
[00:00:42]  I can never be more grateful than I am right now.
[00:00:46]  I'm not used to the attention and the fame, unwanted fame that I am receiving right now.
[00:00:56]  My image is out there, but it's an image for a reason.
[00:01:01]  It's an image that I will carry for the rest of my life.
[00:01:06]  And I am proud.
[00:01:08]  I am proud to say that I've survived ICE.
[00:01:12]  I'm proud to say that I stood up for what is right.
[00:01:16]  And people are saying...
[00:01:18]  She's talking like she just went to war.
[00:01:21]  Like she came face to face with the Klan.
[00:01:24]  People are, many people are saying, including my family and friends, that I will go down in history.
[00:01:29]  And I will carry this on my shoulders.
[00:01:32]  Yeah, so I got kidnapped by ICE.
[00:01:37]  So now we're going to get into the story.
[00:01:41]  I'm sorry, I don't find you credible when you say things like kidnapped because that's a left-wing talking point.
[00:01:46]  Yeah, you got detained by ICE.
[00:01:47]  Nobody kidnapped you.
[00:01:49]  If someone kidnapped you, that's breaking the law.
[00:01:52]  But people can detain you.
[00:01:54]  Yeah.
[00:01:54]  Law enforcement can detain you.
[00:01:56]  I got kidnapped.
[00:01:58]  Yeah.
[00:01:58]  Made me stand here today.
[00:02:01]  So that story is I got kidnapped by ICE.
[00:02:06]  So ICE came to my neighborhood where my neighborhood is a very Somali neighborhood.
[00:02:13]  It's a predominantly Somali neighborhood.
[00:02:15]  There's many Somalis that live here.
[00:02:18]  And they kidnapped me.
[00:02:20]  They took me.
[00:02:21]  They arrested and detained me for two days.
[00:02:23]  And I was put in county jail.
[00:02:26]  Then there was this ICE agent who called me a racial slur.
[00:02:33]  So with my skin color and me being a black person, I, in America, I go through a lot.
[00:02:42]  I go through a lot.
[00:02:43]  I see a lot.
[00:02:45]  I've experienced a lot of things.
[00:02:49]  Maybe she should have Somali.
[00:02:51]  And I'm going to say right now that even though people see me as Somali, I'm still a black person.
[00:02:58]  No, really?
[00:02:59]  Nah, I didn't know that.
[00:03:00]  Man.
[00:03:01]  So ICE agents are going up to people.
[00:03:07]  Praise me!
[00:03:12]  I do not believe that.
[00:03:13]  That is crazy.
[00:03:14]  Okay, man, God, mask.
[00:03:15]  Ice agents come up to you, calling you the N-word.
[00:03:19]  I can say if it was 1930.
[00:03:21]  Yeah.
[00:03:21]  Or maybe 1950 or the 60s.
[00:03:23]  Yeah, but come on.
[00:03:24]  Come on.
[00:03:25]  2026.
[00:03:26]  Ice agents are calling black people the N-word before they detain them.
[00:03:31]  And I can't separate the two.
[00:03:33]  My skin is still dark.
[00:03:35]  I'm still a black person.
[00:03:37]  And like, I'm just a black person of Somali descent.
[00:03:41]  My ethnic origin is Somali, but I'm black.
[00:03:44]  I'm a person who's black under America.
[00:03:48]  So I still experience racism.
[00:03:51]  I still experience many things that black Americans face.
[00:03:56]  And the two cannot, the two can exist.
[00:04:01]  And many people don't really realize that because what they see is they see, oh, Somalis can't be black and they can't be, you know, Somali, but that's not the case.
[00:04:10]  You know what she's saying, though?
[00:04:12]  She's trying to prove her case that she faces racism.
[00:04:14]  Yeah, a lot of Somalis don't consider themselves black people.
[00:04:17]  Yeah, they don't.
[00:04:18]  They call themselves Somalis.
[00:04:19]  Yeah.
[00:04:20]  Which is not a race.
[00:04:21]  Yeah.
[00:04:21]  Yeah.
[00:04:22]  That's why she's going through all that.
[00:04:25]  Stupidness.
[00:04:26]  She's trying to prove her case that she faces racism.
[00:04:28]  You should, I mean, you look black.
[00:04:29]  You Somalis look black.
[00:04:30]  You are black.
[00:04:31]  Yeah.
[00:04:32]  Y'all are black with that.
[00:04:34]  Yeah, so I was called a racial slur by this ICE agent, and this ICE agent was igniting racial violence towards me.
[00:04:41]  He was inciting racial violence.
[00:04:45]  And he was targeting these two Somali men.
[00:04:49]  They were following these two Somali men who ran out the car.
[00:04:53]  And when they ran out the car, what happened was I was walking towards that area that these two men were, they were holding the door for me.
[00:05:03]  And I believe these men were Somali.
[00:05:05]  I'm not sure if they were some other group, but they were like a different East African descent.
[00:05:12]  What I've seen is that they were Somali.

=== East African Descent Arrests (05:47) ===

[00:05:14]  And so when they came, they were following these two men.
[00:05:18]  And I was waiting for these two men to hold the door for me.
[00:05:21]  And I told them, hey, hey, can you hold the door for me?
[00:05:23]  And I walked right in the middle.
[00:05:25]  And when I was in the middle, I saw ICE came.
[00:05:28]  They came out of their cars.
[00:05:30]  They asked me to see my ID.
[00:05:32]  And while they were asking me to see the ID, they just decided it was nice to be racist and say really nasty things.
[00:05:41]  Give me the ID.
[00:05:42]  Yeah, we got some new here.
[00:05:46]  Come on, man.
[00:05:47]  It did.
[00:05:48]  It couldn't have happened that way.
[00:05:49]  Yeah.
[00:05:50]  It couldn't have.
[00:05:51]  I could see it happening if you're like fighting ICE agents.
[00:05:54]  Yeah.
[00:05:55]  And then you punch one of the ICE agents.
[00:05:57]  You're like, oh, oh, it's like that.
[00:06:01]  I could see that.
[00:06:03]  And even in that circumstance, is it justified or not?
[00:06:07]  Yeah, but it's going to happen.
[00:06:08]  We're all human.
[00:06:09]  It's still unbelievable, though.
[00:06:10]  Yeah, I don't find it.
[00:06:12]  No way.
[00:06:12]  No ICE agent, no federal police officer, no local municipality, no judge is going to call you the N-word nowadays.
[00:06:19]  It's just crazy.
[00:06:20]  Yeah.
[00:06:21]  They'll do it behind closed doors, though.
[00:06:23]  Yeah.
[00:06:24]  Like, I say it all the time.
[00:06:25]  I don't say that in public.
[00:06:27]  Things to me.
[00:06:28]  And yeah, that man, he called me, he called me the N-word.
[00:06:33]  And I'm going to say it's the book that's the word that's in the to kill a mockingbird.
[00:06:39]  If you've ever read that book, it's the word that's in that book.
[00:06:41]  You've never read it.
[00:06:42]  And he called me that, and then he arrested me.
[00:06:44]  They arrested me.
[00:06:44]  It was multiple people.
[00:06:46]  They used a lot of force to arrest me.
[00:06:48]  I actually got a scab that was healing while I was in jail.
[00:06:55]  What?
[00:06:56]  But I got a scab while it was.
[00:06:59]  She said it wasn't healing well.
[00:07:01]  So she got, she said, let me put this big, fat, wet band-aid over me.
[00:07:05]  That was healing while I was in jail.
[00:07:08]  But they pushed me hard.
[00:07:10]  They used a lot of violence.
[00:07:11]  My body's...
[00:07:12]  I wonder what it looks like when you take that band-aid off.
[00:07:14]  What do you think, sir?
[00:07:17]  Probably some pimples.
[00:07:18]  That's about it.
[00:07:20]  Because if this actually happened, I'm taking that band-aid off.
[00:07:23]  Yeah, I'm going to show my battle scars.
[00:07:25]  Yeah.
[00:07:25]  I'll be willing to show that.
[00:07:27]  But you covered up.
[00:07:28]  If you, in my opinion, if I'm trying to sell something that didn't happen, I'm going to put some band-aids on.
[00:07:34]  Yeah.
[00:07:34]  You remember when Trump almost got assassinated?
[00:07:36]  He was walking around with a bandage.
[00:07:38]  Yeah, but he was actually claiming that it was fake and all that.
[00:07:41]  Even though everybody saw what happened while he's on stage, his ear was bleeding.
[00:07:45]  The bullets struck his ear.
[00:07:46]  Yeah.
[00:07:48]  I don't know if ICE agents were wearing their body cams or even if ICE agents wear body cams, but I hope they do because her story doesn't sound credible.
[00:07:56]  And she's, I would, come on, I would take those band-aids off to prove my point.
[00:08:01]  Yeah.
[00:08:01]  Yeah.
[00:08:02]  Still hurts.
[00:08:02]  I got a concussion.
[00:08:03]  It's really hard for me to speak because of that concussion.
[00:08:06]  Okay.
[00:08:08]  They were just using a lot of force to arrest me.
[00:08:11]  And I was screaming.
[00:08:12]  I was crying.
[00:08:14]  I was so scared.
[00:08:15]  I've like never used force when you resist.
[00:08:19]  Yeah.
[00:08:19]  They're just going to come up to you and slam you on the ground and call you N-word for no reason.
[00:08:24]  Yeah.
[00:08:24]  And then which I seriously doubt they called it.
[00:08:27]  Especially on a woman.
[00:08:28]  They're not going to do that.
[00:08:30]  I've been arrested in my life.
[00:08:32]  I've never, I don't have like a criminal record.
[00:08:35]  And if you show your ID, it doesn't even go that far.
[00:08:38]  If you ask an American citizen and you give them your ID, they can look it up quickly.
[00:08:43]  Yeah.
[00:08:43]  Yeah.
[00:08:45]  They didn't have to come to that.
[00:08:46]  Yeah, it doesn't have to come to that.
[00:08:47]  It was just, and then that detainment, I was detained.
[00:08:50]  Detainment.
[00:08:51]  I thought you was kidnapped.
[00:08:52]  I was literal cuffs to put on my legs, cuffs on my hands.
[00:08:55]  And during the detainment center is Wolfville.
[00:08:59]  She shattered.
[00:09:00]  Fort Snelling used to be historically, it used to be a concentration camp for Native Americans.
[00:09:08]  And they were actually this.
[00:09:10]  They called her N-word.
[00:09:12]  They beat the hell out of her.
[00:09:13]  Then they took her to a concentration camp that wanted to take a bunch of native hurts.
[00:09:19]  She's hitting all the key buzzwords.
[00:09:21]  Yeah, all the thoughts.
[00:09:22]  Seems fake, right?
[00:09:23]  Yeah.
[00:09:24]  It was this Native American place where they detained, where they, the concentration camp was, excuse me, but the concentration camp was a place where they kept many Native Americans.
[00:09:35]  And they marched those Native Americans and they killed them.
[00:09:38]  They killed them.
[00:09:39]  They murdered them.
[00:09:40]  What is this?
[00:09:40]  A history lesson?
[00:09:41]  Bishop Whipple, Henry Whipple, I believe.
[00:09:44]  Hopefully I'm getting my facts correct.
[00:09:46]  But that man was a bishop who actually spoke for Native Americans.
[00:09:50]  And I was actually detained with a Native American woman.
[00:09:54]  She's still doing it, huh?
[00:09:55]  God bless her heart.
[00:09:56]  She went through a lot too.
[00:09:58]  She was also detained by ICE and she was also a U.S. citizen and like me.
[00:10:02]  And she had gashes on her face.
[00:10:04]  They shattered her windows.
[00:10:07]  She had blood on her.
[00:10:08]  They only shatter your windows when you won't get out the car or wind up.
[00:10:12]  Yeah.
[00:10:12]  Yeah.
[00:10:14]  You only get scuffed up or, you know, manhandled if you resist arrest.
[00:10:20]  And she had gashes on her face.
[00:10:22]  They shattered her windows.
[00:10:24]  She had blood on her jeans, her corduroy jeans.
[00:10:28]  And she was crying because she was so scared that, because she was with her dog, she was so scared that her dog got hurt.
[00:10:33]  She was so scared for her life.
[00:10:35]  We were both crying together.
[00:10:36]  We were holding each other tight.
[00:10:38]  And I'll never forget the fear that we both felt in our hearts that day.
[00:10:43]  And like.
[00:10:45]  Where the tears at?
[00:10:47]  Where the tears at?
[00:10:50]  Just a strong black woman.
[00:10:52]  Strong black women don't share.
[00:10:53]  I'm sorry if I'm getting a little emotional, but thank you.
[00:11:01]  That was fake.

=== Fear and Tears During Detention (01:14) ===

[00:11:02]  I don't believe any of that.
[00:11:03]  Yeah, where the tears at?
[00:11:05]  I mean, if you're really breaking down, you would have tears.
[00:11:08]  Yeah.
[00:11:08]  I know, I mean, I know it's kind of, what's word looked for?
[00:11:12]  Kind of mean to scrutinize people when allegedly they've been involved in a hate crime and being kidnapped and been called the N-word for whites.
[00:11:23]  I know it sounds horrible, right?
[00:11:25]  But I don't believe these people on left, they lie all the time.
[00:11:30]  Yeah.
[00:11:31]  Nothing they said.
[00:11:32]  It's not credible.
[00:11:33]  Yeah.
[00:11:34]  It's like she hit all the buzzwords, concentration caps, N-word, right?
[00:11:43]  Beat the hell out of her.
[00:11:45]  Yeah, hey, who knows what happened?
[00:11:47]  Yeah.
[00:11:48]  Nobody's gonna manhandle you if you're if you're not if you're resisting if you're not resisting you know I mean but seriously if I if I got my head busted wide open I'm showing everybody yeah I I want everybody to see that yeah especially if I got stitches under the underneath this but I don't even think you put band-aids over stitches yeah I think I man I don't believe her.
[00:12:12]  I just don't.
[00:12:13]  Sorry.
[00:12:15]  I may be a black man, but I ain't stupid.
