#RedLake Passes Resolution Prohibiting #ICE From Entering Without Court Order

Jan 27, 2026 | By: Lakeland News

"The Red Lake Tribal Council has passed a resolution prohibiting Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers from entering the Red Lake Nation unless they have a specific court order signed by a judge with jurisdiction to sign such an order.

"The resolution, which passed on a 10-0 vote, says the Tribal Council has been watching ICE actions in Minnesota and is 'ashamed and disgusted at the obvious violations of constitutional rights directed at United States citizens by ICE officers.'

"They add that, with Tribal Council members being made aware of a Leech Lake band member being apprehended in the Walker area, they suspect that it is just a matter of time before ICE officers attempt to enter the Red Lake Nation.

"The resolution says no ICE officer or federal officer may be present on the Red Lake Nation without the presence of a Red Lake officer, and that the federal officers may only be present for as long as it takes to serve the order. In addition, it says no ICE officer or federal officer in the service of ICE shall be permitted to engage in a fishing expedition in search of any person, and that such officers are prohibited from approaching any individual, home, or vehicle outside the presence of a Red Lake officer."

"When government funding disappeared from public media last year, experts predicted dire consequences for scores of stations. According to one estimate, 78 public radio stations and 37 TV stations were at risk of going dark as a result of the cuts. President Trump recently said NPR and PBS had “closed up.”

But six months after the funding cuts, few public TV or radio stations have closed their doors. Many have scraped together a patchwork of funding from concerned donors, philanthropies or government grants. Others, facing insurmountable budget issues, have resorted to mergers with bigger stations to stay online. NPR and PBS have not gone anywhere.

In fact, the country’s public media system — more than 1,000 radio and TV stations, serving millions of people — remains largely intact, despite the disappearance of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.

But there is not a lot of celebrating among public media executives and supporters. Much of the angst about the long-term future remains. They point out that much of the money making up for the loss in federal funding has come from one-off donations and grants — short-term fixes — that may have managed only to defer the true financial pain.

“We’re not out of the woods at all,” said Tim Isgitt, chief executive of Public Media Company, a nonprofit that has stepped in to provide $30 million in emergency funding to rescue public TV and radio stations."

Cumberland County Sheriff #KevinJoyce denounces actions by #ICE agents in #Maine

Maine Public | By Patty Wight
Published January 22, 2026

"Cumberland County Sheriff Kevin Joyce says ICE officials are telling one story about their operation to arrest 'the worst of the worst' in Maine, but the reality on the ground is entirely different.

"During a press conference Thursday, Joyce confirmed that ICE agents arrested a corrections officer recruit who he described as 'squeaky clean.'

"Joyce declined to name the officer, but he said he underwent a rigorous vetting process, including a background check, before he was hired last year. He said he had no criminal record, was following the rules, and had permission to work in Maine through the spring of 2029.

" 'I guess if you're not a card carrying US citizen, then you must be illegal,' Joyce said. 'Because that's what they told me, is he's illegal. And he's definitely not a criminal. So what part of him is illegal? I don't know.'

"Joyce said roughly a half dozen ICE agents arrested the officer Wednesday night and left his running car unattended on a city street in Portland. He described the arrest as 'bush league' and said law enforcement officers would first need probable cause to make an arrest and would never abandon a vehicle in that way."
