This is another piece on what's happening in MN with ICE. It's a bit more amusing though. It's about the irony of refusing to serve ICE in the local businesses.

David Hollis is
feeling angry in Minneapolis, MN.
MAGA is having a full-on toddler tantrum because some hipster coffee shops and breweries in Minneapolis are slapping "NO ICE SERVED HERE" signs in their windows like it's the new "No Shirt, No Shoes, No Service" rule. And the meltdown? Chef's kiss levels of delicious irony.
These are the same people who spent YEARS screaming from the rooftops: "Businesses have RIGHTS! They shouldn't be FORCED to bake cakes or design websites for people whose lifestyles offend their delicate sensibilities! First Amendment! Religious freedom! SCOTUS said so in 303 Creative! WOOHOO!"
They popped champagne when the Supreme Court basically gave a golden high-five to any creative business owner who wanted to say, "Sorry, my deeply held beliefs mean I can't serve you." They called it liberty. They called it winning. They called anyone who disagreed a communist tyrant.
Fast-forward to 2026: ICE agents are rolling through Minneapolis like it's a Call of Duty map—smashing car windows, detaining folks, tragic shootings (RIP Renee Good and others caught in the crossfire), schools locking down, businesses bleeding customers because nobody wants to shop next to masked feds with guns.
And now? Local spots are like, "Nah, bro. No warrant? No latte. No judicial signature? No craft IPA. Private property, baby—your rules, remember?"
And suddenly the same crowd that cheered "let bakers be bakers" is clutching their pearls: "This is DISCRIMINATION! Boycott these woke fascists! How DARE they refuse service to hardworking law enforcement!" Ted Nugent's out here funding DoorDash for ICE like it's a GoFundMe for persecuted heroes. Influencers are filming themselves getting turned away at Hilton desks, crying into their phones about "the rule of law" while conveniently forgetting they spent half a decade arguing the exact opposite.
Bro.
You literally sued for the constitutional right to tell certain people "no thanks" based on your beliefs. You won! You got the green light from the highest court in the land! And now that the shoe is on the other foot—except this time it's not about who someone loves, it's about who someone works for—you're losing your minds? You're melting down harder than a snowman in a sauna?
This is peak 2026 energy. You asked for businesses to have the freedom to discriminate on principle. You got it. Now businesses are using that freedom to say, "Principle: We don't vibe with masked dudes raiding our neighborhoods and shooting unarmed locals. Door's that way." And you're mad? Cry me a river of Freedom Fries, my dudes.
You can't have it both ways. Either private businesses get to say "no" when it offends their conscience... or they don't. Pick a lane. Because right now, the only thing melting faster than your outrage is your credibility.
Keep seething. The popcorn's on me.
