Americans woke this week to the grotesque spectacle of self-styled “anti-ICE” agitators barging into a church service in St. Paul and celebrating the chaos as if it were a badge of honor. Far from noble defenders of the downtrodden, these protesters disrupted worship, harassed congregants, and turned a sacred space into a political theater — and the liberal media treats it like a victory parade.
The incident at Cities Church on January 18, 2026, was not a spontaneous outpouring of civic concern but a coordinated action livestreamed and amplified by celebrity journalists and radical organizers. Videos show the group chanting “ICE out” and accusing church leaders of ties to immigration enforcement, while shocked worshippers fled as the noise and intimidation drowned out prayer.
Now the Department of Justice has opened an inquiry under the FACE Act, which exists precisely to protect houses of worship from intimidation and interference, and rightfully so — nobody should have the First Amendment weaponized to trample another’s religious liberty. Conservative Americans demanded this response the moment clips of the intrusion went viral; law and order must be blind to the political allegiances of the perpetrators.
One of the men at the center of the disruption — identified online as William Kelly, who goes by “DaWokeFarmer” — is not some humble citizen exercising free speech but a veteran agitator with a history of vulgar attacks and harassment at other religious services. Reports show he has previously targeted congregants and even confronted parishioners at Secretary of War Pete Hegseth’s church, which should make anyone skeptical of the celebratory coverage from the left.
Meanwhile the same media that profits from outrage rushed to lionize and sanitize the behavior of these radicals, with livestreams and sympathetic profiles portraying thuggery as righteous dissent. When journalists abandon neutral reporting to embed with and amplify lawless mobs, they betray their profession and the public trust — and they help create a permissive culture where disruption is rewarded.
If charges under federal statutes are pursued, it will be a needed rebuke to the permissive left that applauds profanity and intimidation when aimed at lawful institutions or private citizens. These are not “heroes” but political operatives who invade sacred spaces and egg each other on while the rest of us clean up the social and civic wreckage they leave behind.
Patriots who believe in free worship, strong communities, and the rule of law should be clear-eyed about what happened in St. Paul: the liberal establishment is busy elevating vulgarity and disorder into virtue. We should demand accountability, insist the law protect worshippers from political intimidation, and stop pretending that chaos equals courage simply because it serves a fashionable narrative.
