Nikil Badey, a University of Minnesota student made some egregious and seemingly false claims on his Instagram account about his interaction with the University of Minnesota Police Department during a late-night stroll on Feb. 1.
After Badey was questioned by police as a potential suspect for an armed robbery that had happened minutes earlier, Badey claimed he was racially profiled and harassed by police. The allegations were made in a post on his Instagram account after the encounter.
In his Instagram post, Badey claimed that police had “their hands on their guns as he had his hands up.” He further claimed he feared for his life and that “one sudden move and I would be shot.” In the Instagram post, Badey also claimed he was harassed after asking “what did I do wrong other than the fact I was a brown man.”

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
