Something important to understand about ICE thugs in the Twin Cities is that they're harassing innocent kids and parents at bus stops and schools every single day. Even after the Pretti shooting. It's terrorism.

Clarity!

Now would an excellent time for military leaders that actually stand for the constitution to make their voices heard.

“People like this do not belong on our streets. They should not be permitted to carry deadly weapons. They should not be masked, wearing military-style uniforms or hide without badges identifying who they are. They must be held accountable for their crimes.” www.americaamerica.news/p/snapshot-m...

From Thom Hartmann:

“1490,1570, 1690s, 1770s, 1860s,1929-1945, now. Every one of these prior “great turnings” has produced an expansion of human rights, an improvement in quality of life and freedom, and, essentially, a rebooting of the country. We stand today on the verge of another turning point,”

What they are really hiding: “This network didn’t just enable financial extraction—it enabled human trafficking. The same structures that protected billions in offshore assets protected systematic abuse. And they didn’t just sell out their own futures. They sold out the future of Americans.”

“So the White House's position is that ICE and CBP can murder an American citizen, posthumously slander him and call him a terrorist, remove evidence from the crime scene and block state and local investigations, and then hide the shooter's identity even while he stays on the job.”

Not a veteran. Not a politician, let alone POTUS. However my oath of office as a commissioner on a city board called for me to swear to “support & defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies foreign & domestic.” I took that oath very seriously & still do. It is imperative.

Clarity.

Just kinda seems like refusing to tell us which ICE agents murdered Alex Pretti undercuts the idea that they’re wearing masks to protect themselves — rather than to be able to kill people with impunity.

Good idea!

I want to go back to Marimar Martinez' request to lift protective order in her case. She was shot by CBP in October. As w/Good & Pretti, they lied to cover up shooting. As a threshold issue, Bovino was just 1-degree of separation from all 3 shootings. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

A party that truly cared about "life" would ensure everyone has healthcare. A party that truly cared about "safety" would stop terrorizing communities with ICE. Republicans fail both tests. #FundHealthcareStopICE

Even as the Trump administration murders Minnesotans in the streets they can't help but attack our state on other fronts. This press release is from today!

If this doesn’t tug at your heart, make you well up with sadness, you are not human.

“They're attacking Alex Pretti for having a gun. But here are some famous moments when Trump and the right treated armed protesters like heroes.”

I really wasn't expecting that, yet.

“the resolution for reducing Palestinians to “implementers of the decisions of others,” “once again not at all the masters of their own fate.” While Israel, he said, “has a place at the top table,” Palestinians are “deprived and excluded.”

“Good and Pretti weren’t accidents, and they weren’t about immigration: these intentional killings, these murders, were unambiguous messages as clear as the one I got in Uganda that fall afternoon: “Get in our way and we will kill you, and nobody will do anything about it. Obey or die.” WAKE UP!

“This is a Satire, although less so than one might wish, given the ease of imagining it in the worthy pouches of our Originalists and Oligarchs.”

From Robin Snyder’s Notes on WTF:

WTF is right! “A day after the tragedy the unspeakably vile JD Vance continues to pile on, today posting that “this level of engineered chaos is unique to Minneapolis. It is the direct consequence of far-left agitators, working with local authorities.”

“John Mitnick, “I helped to establish DHS in 2002 and 2003 and later had the homeland security portfolio as a White House Counsel and served as General Counsel of the Department. I am enraged and embarrassed by DHS’s lawlessness, fascism, and cruelty. Impeach and remove Trump—now.”

Simply put I think this is my favorite Jesse Welles song Sounds really spontaneous but it's well thought out and I think really good commentary and message about what's going on in our country But you have to listen to hear it youtu.be/AR15xWFtu-s?...

What impresses me so much about him is how quickly he can write a song in reaction to something. This one is probably my second favorite of his, he wrote this only hours after Hegseth spoke to the generals in that disgusting publicity thing bsky.app/profile/lach...

Clarity!

Four-time Grammy Award nominee Jesse Welles performs his song "Join Ice." Bob Dylan once said a single folk singer could defeat an entire army. Ladies and gentlemen, I think we have our man.

“We should also call what happened to Alex Pretti an execution because, as we learned in the hours that followed, the monstrous Trump regime essentially sanctioned this killing in the rush to exonerate the perpetrators and blame the victim.” www.americaamerica.news/p/the-execut...

Secretary Noem has forfeited her right to lead. I’m calling on her to resign. Gregory Bovino must also be fired. No one, not an ICE agent, not a federal officer, not a president, is above the law.

Haven’t seen many athletes comment on the news in Minneapolis outside of Haliburton, but here’s two time All/Pro Broncos guard Quinn Meinerz, who takes the field in an hour:

OpenAI exec James Dyett calling out the cowardice

Walz: What side do you want to be on? The side of an all powerful federal government that can kill, injure, menace and kidnap its citizens off the streets or on the side of a nurse at the V.A. who died bearing witness to such government

Raise your hand if you think ICE should be abolished and their murderers prosecuted 🖐️

After Minneapolis, people aren’t just grieving...they’re reacting to a mismatch between video...and narrative. That gap is the real accelerant. www.jackhopkinsnow.com

Looks like the guy who murdered him had a clear view of his empty holster.
