“I live in Minnesota. I voted for Trump. I’m a conservative… he had a 2A Right to have a gun — They’re shooting white people, Black people, everyone… wake the fuck up. Stop defending these motherfuckers. Martial law is right on our doorstep.”

"ICE OUT" on Lake Nokomis in Minneapolis, as seen from my flight leaving MSP airport

The "hostile resistance" is stuff like Minnesota not allowing the feds to commandeer public parking lots for ICE to stage operations. Not sure how that justifies disarming and executing a VA nurse.

“I can’t look my daughters in the eye and say I’m running as a Republican, when they’re pulling over Hispanics and Asians because of the color of their skin and what they look like. I did not sign up for that.” www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

Bovino being run out of town is the biggest L for Nazis since the Battle of Berlin

My friend recently compared what’s happening in Minnesota to Selma. I do not think that comparison is overblown.

The Minnesota civil resistance campaign has been remarkably successful: - The GOP governor candidate dropped out - Numerous DOJ officials resigned - GOP members of Congress are speaking out; business feels pressure - Noem has been relieved of operational responsibility The campaign is winning.

The people of Minnesota have executed one of the most impressive civil resistance campaigns I can remember: - Organized a city wide general strike - Maintained nonviolent discipline amidst violence - Mobilized 10,000s in subzero temps to protest and watch ICE - Flipped public opinion against ICE

Carter turns to the voter roll demand, which they lost in the courts. Per Carter, the government responds: "We don't care. We're going to put violence and chaos in the streets and we're going to force it with illegal conduct." "If THAT doesn't violate the 10th Amendment...."

67% of Minneapolis homicides are DHS homicides. 43% of all Minneapolis gunshot victims are DHS victims. Let that sink in.

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.

Bondi’s letter represents a major assault on Minnesota’s sovereignty, demanding that it forfeit its ability to make and enforce its own laws and maintain its voter rolls without oversight from the executive branch, which does not have authority over elections. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

pretty wild statement re: Republican Chris Madel drop from race for MN governor: "Saying he cannot support the national GOP's 'stated retribution on citizens of our state, nor can I count myself a member of a party that would do so."

Why isn't every single Democrat in Minnesota right now, standing with the people??!

There is no way in hell the United States under the Trump regime can host the World Cup in a few months. They are murdering citizens in broad daylight, threatening war against NATO, and lawlessly kidnapping children and foreign heads of state. The world has to organize a boycott. It’s not safe.

Democratic Sen. Jacky Rosen is calling for the impeachment of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, saying that she believes Noem is attempting to "mislead the American public” about the fatal shooting of a 37 year-old protester in Minneapolis.

Minneapolis now

Yes! All Dem leaders should be doing this everyday.

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

Now I’m convinced the Epstein files contain snuff films.

You have to read this. Firsthand affidavit from one of the women who was there and recording the video. She talks about how Alex Pretti was directing traffic when she arrived. She watched him be killed in front of her. She's afraid to go home, worried she'll be arrested.

“14. I don’t know why they shot him. He was only helping. I was five feet from him and they just shot him.”

What are you waiting for? Contact your Senators NOW & tell them not to fund the DHS bill. Call 202*224*3121 & use this tool to send a letter to your Senators: open.substack.com/pub/demcastu... Don’t wait for more terroristic murders to occur.

Schiff: "For Blanche to blame cities and states for flooding the streets of America with thousands of poorly trained agents who are shooting Americans in cold blood in the street and through windshields is despicable."

Filming the police is not obstruction. Filming the police is not resisting. Refusing to stop filming police is not resisting. Holding onto your phone is not resisting. Federal agents under this admin have zero respect for rights and liberties.

ICE OUT BABY!

Klobuchar: "Somehow 50,000 peaceful protesters in 10 below weather were able to march without any problems, and then the next day half a dozen ICE and CBP agents couldn't handle a guy with a cell phone taking video of them and shot him. I think it's pretty obvious what's going on here."

Minnesota's state FBI-like bureau is suing Noem. It says before pre-emptively declaring the killing righteous and abandoning the crime scene, feds took exclusive custody of evidence, including "apparently seized cellphones." MN asserts a sovereign right to investigate crimes within its borders.

If you want proof that Trump is going to try to rig the elections, here it is: In a letter to Gov. Tim Walz Saturday, Bondi claimed that Walz could “restore the rule of law” by complying with a list of demands, including giving the Department of Justice (DOJ) the state’s voter registration records.

Cops cordoning off my block so no one can get in or out have now been joined by a military humvee Photo one: this morning just after the shooting Photo two: right now

I'm a journalist and attorney, not an activist, so I've no answers on what Americans should do right now. I only know this: Donald Trump is attempting to incite a civil war so he can cancel all future elections, and he will keep executing citizens until that outcome is achieved.

Second direct witness to Alex Pretti's killing comes forward. Court declaration: "I saw him yelling at the ICE agents, but I did not see him attack the agents or brandish a weapon of any kind. Suddenly, an ICE agent shoved him to the ground." 🧵

This is a MUST-READ affidavit. This eyewitness to Alex Pretti’s murder — who is too scared to even go home because she doesn’t trust federal agents — directly refutes what the feds are saying happened today:

From a Ruby Red town in AZ, I stand in solidarity with you my dear Minnesota.

This is who our government is calling a monster and a domestic terrorist. They have no shame. Rest in peace, Alex Pretti.

TW ⚠️ The stabilized version is brutal.

DA Bregman: If ICE comes in without a warrant, without reasonable suspicion, without probable cause, that is false imprisonment in New Mexico. You can’t confine, restrain, or detain someone without proper legal authority to do so. And there’s no exception for law enforcement.

NEW Statement from the family of Alex Pretti:

NEW: Minnesota BCA was denied access to the crime scene. They got a WARRANT and DHS STILL BLOCKED THEM. So DHS doesn’t need a warrant to enter your house, but an actual warrant to enter the crime scene is denied?

There's something happening here What it is ain't exactly clear There's a man with a gun over there A-telling me I got to beware I think it's time we stop Children, what's that sound? Everybody look what's going down

The United States government is disarming and executing people. Are there any foreign leaders that can help us?
