Recent court documents reveal extensive surveillance conducted by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) during a surge of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) activity in Minnesota. Eleven faith groups have accused the Trump administration of violating court orders by spying on churches, and judges are now demanding the federal government justify these actions. Religious organizations are calling for the Department of Justice to be held in contempt for undercover operations that allegedly targeted worshippers at Minneapolis churches. Community leaders and activists, including labor unions, have condemned the federal surveillance efforts, likening them to a broader attack on dissent. Incidents include undercover agents attempting to provoke activists into violence and the recording of church services without consent. In a growing backlash against these practices, various groups are imploring corporations to denounce the surveillance, signaling a potential confrontation between community advocates and the federal government.
