Operation Metro Surge in Minneapolis has ended — and both sides are claiming victory.

Federal officials point to deportation targets removed and new cooperation from local authorities.

Minnesota Democrats say public resistance forced ICE to retreat.

So who’s right?

And more importantly: what lesson does this outcome teach activists, law enforcement, and elected officials across the country?

In this analysis, Minnesota State Representative Walter Hudson examines what really happened during the ICE surge operation, the claims from Tom Homan and the Trump administration, and the response from Governor Tim Walz, Attorney General Keith Ellison, and Secretary of State Steve Simon.

If coordinated obstruction of federal law enforcement leads to withdrawal without visible consequences, what precedent does that set?

Because authority ultimately rests not in statements — but in consequences.

And the end of Operation Metro Surge may carry implications far beyond Minnesota.

Racism doesn’t bother me.

That might sound shocking — especially coming from the son of a Black father and a white mother.

But hear me out.

In this episode, I break down the difference between racism as a belief and racism as institutional power — and why I believe we’re actually keeping racism alive by constantly amplifying it.

Why do fringe ideas stay culturally relevant?

Why does outrage often strengthen the very thing it claims to fight?

And what did Morgan Freeman mean when he said the way to stop racism is to stop talking about it?

This isn’t about denying discrimination exists.

It’s about reclaiming control over your identity and refusing to hand emotional power to people who don’t deserve it.

If you disagree — I want to hear why.

The left often labels "great replacement theory" as a racist conspiracy theory, discrediting anyone who raises the possibility.

But Democrat state representative Gene Wu just proved it, confessing that his goal is for non-whites to "take over" the country.

How did we get here? How can an elected official say something so objectively racist with no fear of repercussion?

The answer is telling.

Let's break it down.
