FBI Raids Homes of Anti-Israel Activists From University of Michigan
“Crowds gathered at two of the locations to call the police Nazis.”
Some truly outrageous things have happened in Michigan over the last year and a half. That is why this was necessary.
The College Fix reports:
FBI raids homes, briefly detains UMich anti-Israel protesters following vandalism incidents
The FBI and local law enforcement raided three homes and briefly detained University of Michigan anti-Israel protesters Wednesday.
The raids took place in Ann Arbor, Ypsilanti, and Canton in relation to “reported crimes committed in the City of Ann Arbor as well as other jurisdictions,” a spokesperson for the Michigan Attorney General’s office told MLive.
He also told the outlet officials are “not discussing the nature of the investigation at this time,” but “there is no immigration enforcement angle to the execution of these search warrants.”
“One raid took place around 8:30 a.m. in the 200 block of North Summit Street in Ypsilanti. A second raid took place in the 50000 block of Scarborough Road in Canton, with roughly 20 people gathered outside around 10:40 a.m. It is unclear where in Ann Arbor the other raid took place,” MLive reported.
Steven McGuire, a fellow in campus freedom at the American Council of Trustees and Alumni, reported the news in a post on X showing a video of FBI agents holding the suspects outside their home.
He also reported that “Crowds gathered at two of the locations to call the police Nazis.”
A pro-Palestinian advocacy group called the TAHRIR Coalition posted a video to Instagram showing FBI agents breaking down the door of one home.
BREAKING: The FBI raided three homes of University of Michigan anti-Israel activists today, briefly detaining and questioning some of them while reportedly seizing electronics.
Recall that the homes and offices of several UMich Leaders have been vandalized in recent months.

Held them briefly? Why only briefly? What was the point then?
They obviously didn’t find what they were looking for.
Or had planted all the surveillance they brought in with them.
Not necessarily. The purpose of the raid may have been to gather evidence.
Did they seize computers and cell phones? Documents? Other physical evidence?
The brief detention of individuals during the execution of a search warrant is common and their subsequent release is not evidence that the Agents “didn’t find what they were looking for”
Jackbooted dawn-knocking FBI stormtroopers have been Nazis for years. What the Democrats don’t like is that they are no longer THEIR Nazis,
Demos were quite content with FBI anti-Trump actions in previous years.
Good, and about time, that the shoe is on the other foot. Time to put the fear of God into these people and let them know there will finally be some consequences for their actions.
Might be this time around, the cops couldn’t find enough evidence for an arrest, but now they know that they are no longer getting ignored. Maybe they will start to think all that money they are getting from Soros and some of the other groups that are paying them might just not be worth it after all…
