Papers, please — in Minnesota. Masked Border Patrol agents surrounded a U.S. citizen in the snow, demanding ID, birthplace, and a “citizenship check” as she calmly refused and walked away. This is what cruelty looks like when it’s dressed up as procedure: intimidation first, rights second. confirms: ethnicity, accent,... show more

Ramon Menera is a U.S. citizen. Federal agents detained him outside his own home, in front of his child, after citing his accent and demanding ID. explains: Accent is not evidence. Citizens do not have to carry citizenship papers. Minnesota is not a “show me your papers” state. This was not public safety. This was racist profiling. FIGHT ICE:

🚨BREAKING: In Minneapolis, ICE/Border Patrol agents are caught on video openly admitting they are demanding proof of citizenship from U.S. citizens, with no legal basis. In the video, an agent approaches a man who is filming and asks where he was born. The man answers, Somalia. The agent immediately responds, “Somalia? Do you have your ID on you?” The man says yes. The agent follows up by asking, “What do you have, a passport card?” … an especially revealing question, since obtaining a U.S. passport already requires proof of U.S. citizenship. When the agent asks to see it, the man pushes back, asking why. The agent’s answer is blunt and incriminating: “To verify your citizenship.” This is not routine enforcement. It is racial profiling, plain and simple. U.S. citizens are not required to carry proof of citizenship, and agents do not have the authority to demand it based solely on someone’s place of birth, accent, or appearance. This is what “papers, please” looks like in real time, and it’s exactly what this administration’s policies are enabling. Today it’s someone filming in Minneapolis. Tomorrow, it’s anyone who doesn’t look “American enough.”

Government-backed racist masked militias are roaming worksites looking for brown-skinned workers to detain for a bonus. ICE can fuck off and leave these people to build America. A private construction site does not become a public space just because there is no fence. If the public is not allowed there, ICE does not get to wander in without consent or a judicial warrant. U.S. citizens do not have to carry, show, or hand over ID just because ICE demands it. Filming may have saved this citizen from unlawful detention. helps citizens and immigrants know their rights, record encounters, document agents, and preserve evidence before it disappears. A badge is not evidence. Record everything. KEEP PAXIS FREE:

🚨BREAKING: Border Patrol just illegally arrested a U.S. citizen… a TEENAGER… in Richfield, Minnesota. The teen was working at Target when agents tackled him and arrested him, while his passport was in his pocket, fully identifying himself as a U.S. citizen. None of it mattered. Why? Because he looked Latino. When a coworker asked who to call, he said, heartbreakingly: “my mom.” Think about that. Your teenage son goes to work, and Border Patrol kidnaps him. This isn’t an isolated incident. ICE and Border Patrol have repeatedly illegally arrested U.S. citizens, especially in Minnesota. And after agents murdered a U.S. citizen who tried to drive away from illegal detention, this should outrage every single American. U.S. citizens do not have to prove their citizenship. Yet, ICE and Border Patrol agents are routinely violating the Constitution, demanding proof anyway… and even refusing to accept drivers licenses or real IDs. And now? Even a passport doesn’t matter. This isn’t enforcement… it’s targeting Americans based on fear and appearance, treating citizens like criminals in their own country. When will this end? When will the government stop stripping citizens of their rights and labeling them terrorists for simply existing?

🚨Another day, another video of ICE agents illegally demanding a U.S. citizen prove their citizenship, in Brownsville, TX. In the video, ICE agents have a U.S. citizen boxed in with their vehicles. After demanding that he show his ID, the U.S. citizen asks if he is free to go, and then tells them to get the F away from his car. Instead of going back to their own cars, the agents tell him to “chill”… after they had already illegally detained him and demanded identification. The U.S. citizen then gets out of his car, to record the agents’ license plates, and one of the ICE agents has the audacity to say: “Sir, please don’t interfere with our investigations.” Interfere with what investigation? He WAS the investigation. If they’re letting him leave, then there is nothing left for him to “interfere” with. Recording government agents, in public, is protected by the First Amendment, and they don’t get to invent an “investigation” to discourage someone from filming. And this is becoming a pattern. ICE agents are stopping whoever they want… and demanding papers. But that is not how constitutional rights work. ICE didn’t have reasonable suspicion that he had committed an immigration violation… since he is a U.S. citizen. So, detaining him, and demanding that he identify himself, violates his Fourth Amendment rights. U.S. citizens are not required to prove their citizenship, to any law enforcement, simply because they were stopped and questioned. And that’s what makes these encounters so dangerous. When U.S. citizens refuse to comply with these unlawful demands, we’ve repeatedly seen ICE agents escalate the situation with physical force. Citizens have been shoved, dragged from vehicles, pinned to the ground, and pepper sprayed after refusing unlawful demands, or asserting their constitutional rights. And a right isn’t a right if exercising it means you risk being assaulted by the very government that’s supposed to protect it. This isn’t just about immigration anymore. It’s about whether every American can exercise their constitutional rights without fearing they’ll be met with intimidation, violence, or retaliation from federal agents. If federal agents can stop U.S. citizens, demand they prove who they are without lawful justification, and then escalate when people refuse… Then nobody’s constitutional rights are safe.

🚨Another day, another video of ICE/Border Patrol agents illegally detaining a U.S. citizen, in Escondido, CA. In the video, a group of masked agents racially profile and surround someone walking outside a building… demanding they prove their citizenship. And for those who don’t know… You do not have to “prove” your citizenship to federal agents just for existing in public. That’s not how the Constitution works. The Fourth Amendment protects you from unreasonable searches and seizures… which includes being stopped, surrounded, and interrogated without reasonable suspicion of a crime. And no… “you look like an immigrant” is not reasonable suspicion. That’s racial profiling. But, it gets worse… When the agents realize someone is watching, they move their truck to BLOCK the view. And everyone needs to ask themselves why? If everything they’re doing is legal… why are they hiding it? The person filming drives around to keep eyes on the situation… and points out that the agents don’t even have license plates on their truck… Then, the agents let the person go, because there was never a legal basis to detain them in the first place. That’s the part people need to understand… This isn’t “law enforcement.” This is intimidation… fishing for compliance… hoping people don’t know their rights. This is what it looks like when federal agents believe constitutional rights are optional. And once some lose their constitutional rights, we all do.

THIS IS WHAT TRUMP’S MASS-DEPORTATION POLICY LOOKS LIKE. Brian Morales was born in Denver. He produced his Colorado birth certificate, Social Security card and hospital birth record. But after a traffic stop, ICE refused to let him retrieve his documents, accused him of lying, threatened him with prison, moved him through five facilities and deported him to Mexico. “As a U.S. citizen, how can they treat me like this, just because I only speak Spanish?” This was not simply a clerical error. It was the predictable result of a system built on racial profiling, coercion and speed instead of evidence, due process and truth. More than 170 U.S. citizens were reportedly detained by immigration agents during the first nine months of Trump’s second administration. If the government can make Brian’s citizenship disappear, it can make yours disappear too. helps immigrants and citizens prepare for encounters with ICE and other federal agents, understand their rights, ask for a lawyer before signing anything, document abuse and preserve evidence for legal action.

REMEMBER: FEDERAL IMMIGRATION AGENTS MAY LIE OR EXAGGERATE THEIR AUTHORITY TO MAKE YOU COMPLY. In Aurora, a masked Border Patrol agent accused a woman of “erratic driving,” demanded her ID and vaguely called himself an “officer of the law”—creating the impression that he possesses general police powers. He does not. PAXIS confirms: ICE and Border Patrol agents are not state or local police.

What law do you suspect I violated? Am I free to leave?” helps immigrants and citizens understand their rights, document federal agents and preserve evidence. A badge is not evidence.

ICE agents stopped an off-duty police officer, a U.S. citizen, and demanded she show her papers. She was not under arrest. There was no articulable suspicion of wrongdoing. 🚨 provides a constitutional breakdown of this incident in Minnesota: She attempted to record the stop—a protected First Amendment right. Agents hit the phone from her hand and drew their guns before she identified herself as law enforcement. This conduct violates: • 🔹 The Fourth Amendment — bans arbitrary stops and seizures • 🔹 The First Amendment — protects the right to record public officials • 🔹 Public trust — eroded when federal agents target citizens without cause This was not a checkpoint. It was not a warrant-based stop. It was a random demand for citizenship papers—a move without legal basis under U.S. law.

🚨Another day, another video of ICE agents illegally detaining a U.S. citizen and demanding “proof of citizenship,” in Minneapolis. In the video, you can see agents stop a car and immediately demand ID, without a warrant or probable cause. That is illegal. After running the ID, the agents get back in their vehicle and leave, because they never had the right to stop the person in the first place. This is what the Trump administration is trying to normalize… Masked agents pulling people over at random, demanding papers, and kidnapping U.S. citizens who don’t have their IDs, or if the agents aren’t able to identify them in their system. That is not legal. That is a direct violation of the United States Constitution… And it should terrify anyone who still cares about freedom.

Another day, another video of ICE and Border Patrol racially profiling a US citizen and illegally detaining them in Charlotte, NC, simply for looking Latino. In the video, a man is surrounded by agents while bystanders record what’s happening. People filming say the man was just walking when agents stopped him, demanded to know where he was born, and insisted on “proof of citizenship” with no reasonable suspicion and no legal basis. For the record, US citizens do not have to carry identification while walking down the street (as the person filming points out). You are not required to prove your citizenship on demand. ICE does not get to detain you because of your skin color, your accent, or their personal assumptions. And yet, here we are again. Another unlawful stop, another person harassed, another community forced to witness federal agents treating brownness as a crime. This should not be normal, and the fact that it keeps happening says everything about the agency.

🚨BREAKING: Border Patrol agents are caught on camera unlawfully stopping and threatening a U.S. citizen at a gas station, with zero legal basis. In the video, a Border Patrol agent approaches a man who is simply pumping gas into an unmarked vehicle and immediately demands, “Let me see your ID.” The man correctly responds, “I don’t have to show it to you.” Instead of stating any lawful reason for the stop, the agent escalates and asks, “How do I know you’re a U.S. citizen?” That question alone exposes the violation. The man is wearing normal clothing, committing no crime, not crossing a border, not driving, and not suspected of anything. There is no traffic stop, no reasonable suspicion, no probable cause, and no legal authority to demand proof of citizenship in this context. So, what the agent is really saying is this: If you don’t look white enough, you must prove you belong. That is racial profiling. It is unconstitutional. And it is illegal. The agent then issues a threat: “This can go two ways. I can take you in, or you show me your ID.” That is not a choice, it’s coercion. Faced with the threat of unlawful detention, the man is forced to hand over his identification, surrendering his rights under duress. This is exactly how constitutional rights are stripped away, not by law, but by intimidation. If Border Patrol can demand “proof of citizenship” from Americans at a gas station with no cause, then no one’s rights are safe.
