Frontlines TPUSA reporter Jonathan Choe covered a series of anti-ICE demonstrations that broke out Wednesday evening in Seattle, Washington.
These protests come in the aftermath of a fatal confrontation in Minneapolis, Minnesota, between a protester, Renee Good, and a group of ICE agents. The confrontation escalated when Good drove away from the agents, who appeared to be in the process of detaining her. The Department of Homeland Security claims that Good drove into an officer who was in the pathway of her automobile, which prompted the officer to shoot her in self defense, stating the car was being used as a weapon. The shooting resulted in her death.
Some protesters went to a Seattle federal building and demonstrated outside of it, chanting Good’s name, and promoting the abolition of ICE by holding up a banner with that message.
A group of protesters were found batting around a piñata of an ICE officer. Others were walking around with metal canes, though not struggling while walking, indicating their possible use as decoyed weapons.
Upon recognizing Choe, some protesters began to shout and chant loudly, and sometimes inaudibly, about Charlie Kirk.
“They’re disrupting their own protest to come after me. It’s incredible. I own these people,” Choe remarked laughingly as the protesters yelled. Choe was also chased down by protesters who challenged him to fight them.
At one point Choe encountered a group of older activists who planned on attending the protests which they believed were conducted by Indivisible, the organization that ran the “No Kings” protests in 2025, only to discover the ones they encountered were being run by far-left activists. These activists turned away and left the protests, they told Choe.
