MINNEAPOLIS — Remember Operation Metro Surge? Yeah, the one where ICE actually did their job for a hot minute and the blue-haired activists lost their minds? Well, guess what? The cameras are gone, the outrage is over, and the 'mutual aid' gravy train has officially derailed. Turns out, 'wokeness' doesn't magically generate cash when the feel-good vibes wear off.

Juntos Podemos, the virtue-signaling squad that was handing out free groceries and rent money like candy, is now begging for scraps at brewery fundraisers. They managed to squeeze $15,000 out of the soy latte crowd, but it's still 5 grand short of their goal. Anai Tepozteco, the group's founder, is whining about donations drying up since Operation Metro Surge ended. Shocking. Who knew that performative activism only lasts as long as the hashtag is trending?

Operation Metro Surge, you might recall, involved ICE rounding up a few thousand illegals. Of course, the leftists screamed bloody murder, conveniently ignoring the fact that these people were here illegally in the first place. Two U.S. citizens unfortunately caught some stray bullets from the feds during this operation. But now that the illegal aliens aren't being actively deported, the bleeding hearts have moved on to the next cause célèbre. Surprise!

Poor Paola, the undocumented Ecuadorian, is crying about not being able to pay her bills. Maybe she should have thought about that before breaking the law and leeching off American taxpayers. Her husband got the boot in August 2025. Now she's struggling to pay for her bills. Tough.

And of course, HOME Line, the tenant activist group, is peddling sob stories about eviction filings spiking. Here's a thought: maybe people should, like, pay their rent? Radical concept, I know.

Sulia Altenberg is apparently shocked that she only got eight bucks in overnight donations. 'You gotta be kidding!' she wailed. Honey, the only joke here is your business model. Turns out, asking people to voluntarily fund your socialist fantasy isn't a winning strategy.

So, here's the takeaway: 'mutual aid' is a scam. It's a feel-good scheme designed to make privileged leftists feel better about themselves while accomplishing absolutely nothing of substance. When the chips are down, and the outrage fades, the money dries up, and everyone's left holding the bag. Maybe they should have focused on something useful, like, I don't know, enforcing the law?
