Minnesota's radical teachers unions have officially crossed the line from education into full-blown political activism, shutting down schools across the state to protest President Trump's immigration enforcement operations. While ICE agents work to secure our communities and uphold the rule of law, union bosses are abandoning their classrooms to stage political theater.

The coordinated school closures come as Trump's second-term agenda kicks into high gear, with mass deportation operations targeting criminal illegal aliens who have terrorized American communities for years. But instead of celebrating safer streets, Minnesota's woke educator establishment is throwing a collective tantrum.

Union Bosses Choose Politics Over Kids

What message does this send to hardworking parents who depend on schools to educate their children? That your kids' learning takes a backseat to the political grievances of radical union leaders who think they know better than the American people who voted for Trump's immigration agenda.

These are the same unions that kept schools closed during COVID while demanding taxpayer raises, that push gender ideology on kindergarteners, and that fight parents who dare question what's being taught in their classrooms. Now they're literally shutting down education to shield criminal illegal aliens from deportation.

"This is exactly why parents are fleeing public schools in record numbers. When teachers care more about protecting illegal aliens than educating American children, the system has completely failed," said one frustrated Minnesota parent.

Meanwhile, President Trump and his administration are delivering on their promises to secure the border and remove those who entered our country illegally. It's what Americans voted for in overwhelming numbers just over a year ago.

The Real Victims? Students and Parents

While union activists play politics, working families are left scrambling for childcare and students miss valuable learning time. This is the predictable result of allowing radical ideologues to infiltrate our education system and prioritize social justice activism over actual education.

The question every Minnesota parent should be asking: Why are the people entrusted with educating our children spending their time protecting criminal illegal aliens instead of doing their jobs? And when will we finally hold these failing institutions accountable?

My kids go to school in the Twin Cities and I'm furious about this. When did teachers decide they could just shut down schools whenever they disagree with federal law enforcement? What am I supposed to tell my boss when I can't come to work because of their activism?

Same situation here. These teachers forget that parents have jobs and responsibilities too!

This is exactly why we need school choice NOW. These radical unions are more concerned with their political agenda than actually educating our children.

Couldn't agree more! I'm tired of my tax dollars funding these political stunts instead of actual learning.

And they wonder why homeschooling numbers keep climbing every year!

ICE is doing their job enforcing immigration laws that Congress passed. Since when do teacher unions get to decide which federal agencies are legitimate?
