Pretty sure this has been debunked as bullshit unless I'm confusing it with another similar situation. They left the kids in the car while they were protesting. But that story won't fill the GoFundMe

Strange DHS took down their tweet then if debunked.

Per Grok:

The incident you're referring to occurred in Minneapolis on January 14 or 15, 2026 (reports vary slightly on the exact date within that week), during clashes between protesters and federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents, who were conducting immigration enforcement operations in the area.A family—Shawn and Destiny Jackson, along with their six children (ages ranging from 6 months to 11 years)—was driving home from their son's basketball game/practice when they inadvertently became trapped between protesters and ICE agents in north Minneapolis. According to multiple news reports and statements from the family:
  • ICE agents deployed tear gas (a chemical irritant, sometimes described alongside flash-bang/stun grenades) near or under the family's SUV.
  • One account states a tear gas canister was rolled or thrown under the vehicle, flooding the interior with gas and reportedly triggering the airbags.
  • The family struggled to escape the vehicle amid the chaos. Bystanders helped get the children out and ushered them into a nearby home for safety.
  • The 6-month-old infant (named D'Iris in some reports) was the last removed, appeared lifeless/unconscious, stopped breathing, had foam/bubbles from the mouth, and showed severe respiratory distress.
  • The mother (Destiny Jackson) performed CPR on the baby (with guidance from emergency services over the phone) to revive him. He was breathing again by the time first responders arrived but was taken to the hospital in serious condition.
  • At least two or three of the children (including the infant) were hospitalized for breathing difficulties and other effects from the exposure. The city of Minneapolis's Office of Community Safety confirmed the tear gas caused the 6-month-old to experience breathing issues.
This was not a targeted action against the family or the infant specifically—the family appears to have been bystanders/civilians caught in the crossfire of crowd control measures during a protest related to ICE operations. Reports indicate the agents were responding to the protest situation, though the family and critics argue the use of such munitions was reckless given the presence of children and vehicles.The baby survived thanks to prompt CPR and medical attention, but the incident drew widespread outrage over the risks to bystanders (especially infants) from chemical agents in enforcement actions. ICE had not issued a detailed public response in the immediate reports, and investigations or further details may still be ongoing as of late January 2026.This event fits into a broader pattern reported in early 2026 of aggressive ICE tactics during mass deportation/enforcement pushes, sometimes affecting non-target civilians.

Pretty sure there is video of the parents at the protest. Their story or version isn't even slightly believable.

They absolutely do suck. And the worst is Twitter is such a weird echo chamber where you can read the comments on one post and they all make it sound absolutely true and believable. And you could find another post and all the replies will be the opposite. And all of it feels like it should be in the same place but it's not.

Anyway, get rich quick by playing victim is pretty popular these days. #GoFundMe
