Public executions will continue until the citizenry is silent.

CBP chief Bovino has confirmed that the officers who executed Alex Pretti in the street yesterday are not only *not on administrative leave,* they have all been reassigned to other jurisdictions and are all on the street today. This is totally unheard of for any officer-involved shooting

Tim Cook is a giant cynical piece of shit

wow

"Our agents can kill people on weekends, but you can't serve us 'til Monday."

I just checked—it turns out that Art. II, Sec. 1 of the Constitution of the United States does *not* say "The executive Power shall be vested in a bunch of sociopaths who think they can do whatever the fuck they want and make shit up as they go along."

Day after a man was executed in Minneapolis, Il Douche is whining about halting progress on his Ballroom. I feel like Louise XVI would even be saying that's a bit much.

It appears that this legend owns a little bookstore — and you can order books from him instead of Bezos. Link in next post.

Nonsense. A "joint federal and state" investigation is the last thing we need. We need state prosecutors to do their job unhindered: indict the murderers for murder and indict Noem, Patel, Bovino, and Bondi for obstruction of justice. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/25/u...

The fact that he calls a poster a billboard is how I know this man has never been to a protest in his life

No notes. I agree with Mr. Cruz on the economic argument here. And I agree with Mr. Trump for telling Mr. Cruz, at any point and for any reason, to go fuck himself.

1. Wasn’t at a protest 2. Was disarmed when they shot him while he was face down 3. New gun rights rule: the second amendment is when conservatives can carry guns everywhere, but if anyone else has a gun we can kill him on sight bsky.app/profile/atru...

YES

Chris Murphy: "This is really scary because what Bovino essentially told you is that if you just happen to be present when they are undertaking an operation, if you pull out your phone to record it, the use of force against you is justified. That is not true, it's not what the law says."

WSJ says ICE is lying. Read that again…. The Wall Street Journal is calling out the lies

Wow. They even got Amy Klobuchar to stop talking about prices and affordability.

I mean, the law in Minnesota literally says you can

inshallah

Reading Peukert's classic book on the collapse of Weimar a few months ago, one of his points is that the Nazis inherit an old guard of Prussian conservative bureaucrats who know how to bureaucrat, helping [my gloss] counteract the chaos at the top with (evil, horrible) stuff being orderly below.

And the 2A-breathed assholes have finally given up on "guns don't kill people, people kill people" and are now resorting to, no, it's the guns. In order to justify fascism, every principle and credo -- pretended or otherwise -- can and will be jettisoned.

just amazing work by my colleagues at @wsj.com - a frame by frame analysis of the shooting incredible that some continue to rationalize this www.wsj.com/us-news/vide...

Play Nazi games, win Nuremberg prizes

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

Violence at the hands of the state is nothing new and has been the reality for many non-white Americans since the very beginning. This needs to be top of mind when confronting what happens next and where we go from here.

Those who cops on the village green at Lexington with their muskets and the shot heard 'round the world. The guys in the red coats? Terrorists and agitators.

Wake up. Make breakfast. Do email. Watch a murder. Go to a party for a 5 year old. Laugh with my daughter. See a different angle of that murder. Hear govt officials slander the victim. Play Barbies with my kid. Feed her dinner. Tear up at that victim reading last honors to a vet. Put kid to bed. USA

I can't put into words the feeling of watching our government, a hive of evil antisocial filth, the absolute worst humanity has to offer, colliding with the best. Ordinary people trying to help each other, risking everything to stand up for what's plainly, unambiguously fair and right. It's unreal

An insane, perfect encapsulation of it all: The same day Trump’s agents kill a Veterans Affairs ICU nurse in broad daylight, the CEOs of Apple and Amazon join Trump to watch a private screening of a film about his wife directed by an alleged sexual abuser who was seen shirtless in the Epstein Files

I spent the last year writing a book about the ridiculous demands of what it means to be masculine. But a guy who takes care of people who served our country, asks a woman “are you ok?” When she is in distress and looks out for his vulnerable neighbors seems like a pretty good role model for a man.

Mexico got the 1986 World Cup after Colombia, who had been originally awarded it, acknowledged it wasn’t able to safely host the tournament. Just saying.

Murder in broad daylight, by the U.S. government. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

firing and incarcerating the officers who did this is not enough. ICE is rotten from the top down. yesterday’s murder wasn’t an accident. it was a culture.

The best headline I've seen about MN murder was "Gunmen still at large."

I think one of the wildly disorienting parts of this is that when you try to "look for the helpers," you end up looking at the guy they shot.

Huge scandal that Minneapolis has been crawling with terrorists this whole time. They've been living among us undercover as poets and nurses. And would've continued to, had it not been for the work of our bravest child kidnappers

Bovino, as required for a Trump Administration job, is a shameless liar. What’s scarier than that is perhaps 25 to 35% of the nation are totalitarian-souled bootlickers eager to believe him. How do you make a nation out of people like that?

"The suspect put himself in that situation." Well, we know that Bovino, Stephen Miller, Trump and the rest of this sick crew are not going to tell the truth. This is a war for them. A war against American citizens. And they will lie—and kill—to triumph.

The left didn’t make the men you ordered to occupy the city for no reason shoot a man in the back. The left didn’t tell a bunch of masked armed yahoos that they had “total immunity” and you would let them get away with murder if it came to that.

The director of the FBI just reiterated the Trump uber-message: We can kill you. Alex Pretti was not attacking the agents. If he was resisting as he was being assaulted by them, under no law enforcement protocol is that alone cause for a summary execution. This is police-state tactics.

“Comply or die” is what they’re going with.

Ice agents appeared to be counting his bullet wounds

In the early 1930s the SA was roughing people up, creating chaos in neighborhoods, seeking to terrorize with the occasional killing. By the late 1930s it had been supplanted by the SS, which was much better trained.

I just starting crying on BART bsky.app/profile/badi...

This is cold-blooded state murder of an US citizen. Stephen Miller called Alex Pretti a "domestic terrorist" & claimed he was trying to "assassinate" federal officers. A total lie. Only a cretin would hurl this falsehood & stick with it. This a fascistic and reckless disregard of life & the truth.

Tim Cook and Andy Jassy—and the rest—are accommodating an authoritarian who is presiding over a secret police force killing American citizens. The blood of Renee Good and Alex Pretti is on the hands of those who enable Trump. Hope they like the movie.
