MINNEAPOLIS (FOX 9) - Alleging constitutional rights have been violated by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and other federal agents, the Minnesota ACLU has partnered with several law firms to file a lawsuit against the federal government.

ACLU lawsuit challenges Trump administration

What we know: The lawsuit claims that ICE and CBP agents have unlawfully arrested Minnesotans, specifically targeting Somali and Latino communities without warrants or probable cause. The legal action aims to address alleged racial profiling and unlawful seizures.

The lawsuit highlights the experience of Mubashir Khalif Hussen, a U.S. citizen who was detained by ICE agents without being asked for identification or immigration status, according to the ACLU of Minnesota.

Both the MN & Cities and the ACLU suits will end up at the SCOTUS -- that's ruled for ACLU plaintiffs more than a few times -- SCOTUS being the only court this lawless administration obeys. The MN & Cities and the ACLU will win, imo.
