MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA: A transgender person initially offered Florida Senate candidate Jake Lang a ride after he was injured during a Minneapolis protest.

However, once they realized who he was, they asked him to get out, calling him a “horrible freaking person.” They added, “please know that we do not support this man and we do not support what this turned into.”

They later posted a video on TikTok explaining the incident and identifying themselves as anti-ICE, even calling ICE agents “bad people.” This occurred during the same event that Jake Lang organized, which he called the “March Against Minnesota Fraud."

The story begins with the individual describing the incident: “My name is Dae. This is my friend Leah. This feels so weird, that would be ugly. So let me give y'all the rundown on what just happened to us in case we go viral or whatever the case may be.”

They continued, “We were driving. We see this crowd of protesters outside of a hotel, and obviously, we are anti-ice like what the f**k is, what all this shit that's going on is such bulls**t.”

The transgender person explained their fear and frustration, saying, “I'm lowkey scared for our country, and it sucks that it's starting in Minnesota. But like, I do not support that they're b*llying. They are bad people, they're ripping apart. Families don't f**k with it. This guy still don't even know his full name. Jake is all I know. And apparently horrible, freaking person.”



They then described their initial interaction with Lang: “I must share a lot of you guys do know about, but I had never heard of him. We see him run up to our car, and he says, 'Can I please get in?' Can I please get in? They hurt me so bad. That's all the context we have.”

The chaos that followed was recounted in detail: “So, in our heads, my God, was he just attacked by ICE like we thought ICE was after him, so we're like, okay, whatever hop in the freaking car, real quick, and then all of a sudden, there's a whole bunch of people coming here and storming us, and beating up the car.”

They explained their initial intention to help, stating, “It's just like we saw an injured man. So, obviously, we're gonna help because we're not bad people. What, and I don't know him. And so, yeah, anyways.”

Shortly afterward, they said they confronted Lang: “So, we let me just go around the block, and I'm like, you know, what? Like, you need to get out. What is going on? Like, whose side are you on right now? Because, like, this is not okay. And I'm just getting super weird, bad vibe from this dude.”

Dae described the moment they learned Lang’s identity: “And he's just like, oh, Trump, something me, I gotta own back. And I'm just like, yeah, I don't care what Trump did for you. Like, ICE is f*king s**t, and who are you? And then I find out who he is. I'm like, I don't care if your Uber's here. You're not gonna wait in my f**king car.

They concluded by issuing an ultimatum: “You need to get out right now as f**k, like we were not good, like this is not okay. I do not support you, like speak your mind, whatever. But like, I did not support what this is all about, like, this is not okay.”

“You need to leave, and you need to give me your contact information because you're paying for this. I actually don't. Like literally.”
