Popular podcaster Joe Rogan has broken his silence on the Minneapolis riots that erupted following the deaths of two anti-ICE activists, arguing the unrest is not organic but a coordinated effort designed to distract the public from Minnesota’s sprawling fraud scandal.
Rogan addressed the situation during a recent episode of his podcast with guest Andrew Wilson.
He warns that the riots appear to serve a purpose beyond protesting immigration enforcement or disrupting ICE operations.
While Rogan has previously criticized President Donald Trump over the optics of confrontations between ICE agents and “protesters,” he said the current wave of violence raised red flags.
Rogan said attention has suddenly shifted away from Minnesota’s unprecedented fraud revelations ever since anti-ICE riots began dominating headlines.
“This isn’t organic,” Rogan said.
“This is a very coordinated thing.”
Rogan described what is unfolding in Minneapolis as a “color revolution,” which he characterized as a deliberate effort to manufacture chaos.
He questioned why riots are erupting specifically in Minneapolis at the same time an “ungodly amount” of fraud has been uncovered in the state.
“The idea that this is an organic protest, these riots are organic, is nonsense,” Rogan said.
“It’s provably nonsense.”
Rogan pointed to “ICE Watch” Signal chats that exposed coordinated efforts to track and target ICE agents as evidence that the unrest is being organized rather than spontaneously driven by grassroots outrage.

Rogan’s warning echoes concerns raised by Tucker Carlson, who has accused Gov. Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey of deliberately allowing chaos to escalate in order to undermine federal authority.
Carlson asked why Democrat state and local leaders would refuse to protect citizens, withhold information about violent offenders, and fail to use law enforcement to contain riots.
“Why would a state refuse to protect American citizens from murder, refuse to give the names or whereabouts of murderers and child molesters, and refuse to use its own cops to keep riots under control?” Carlson asked.
He then answered his own question.
“Because they want riots, that’s why,” Carlson said.
Carlson warned that the unrest represents the early stages of a coordinated insurrection against federal authority.
“What you’re watching are the beginnings of a color revolution, of a kind of insurrection against federal authority,” Carlson said.
He warned that allowing states or cities to openly defy federal law would fracture the country.
“And what you have to ask yourself… Can you live with that?” Carlson said.
“Can you live in a country of 50 states that don’t agree on what the federal law should be and that allow Americans to get murdered in their cities because they have the wrong politics or they work for a politician they disapprove of?”
Carlson said the end result of such lawlessness would be national collapse.
“The number one implication is the country will fall apart. That’s civil war,” he said.
“You have regions and internal government states that don’t recognize federal authority…
“And at that point, what you have is warring nations within the same borders.”
“And then you have widespread violence, then you have killing at scale, then you have civil war.”
