Also, may I say that I don’t agree with people saying ICE and CBP need “more training.” They’re doing exactly what this administration has trained them to—impose a reign of fear in blue cities. They don’t need more training. They need to be ripped up root and branch.

Van Hollen: "They really think the American people are stupid. I mean, we can all see the video. We saw the video with Renee Good. We saw the video with Alex Pretti. The real domestic terrorists are in the White House right now."

Holy shit.

Walz: "It's a campaign of organized brutality against the people of our state, and today that campaigned claimed another life. I've seen the video from several angles and it's sickening. But I have a strong statement here for our federal govt: Minnesota's justice system will have the last word."

James Talarico: “It’s time to tear down this secret police force & replace it with an agency that actually is going to focus on public safety— We have to haul these masked men in front of Congress so the world can see their faces”

TW ⚠️ This is the pink jacket lady’s angle. (From Drop Site News) Horrific. Bovino is a stone cold liar. Pretti wasn’t attacking officers, he had just helped a lady they assaulted and had gotten pepper sprayed.

All regime mouthpieces who have lied about the murder of VA nurse Alex Pretti must resign immediately. All DHS officials and agents involved must be prosecuted.

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz: "Thank God. Thank God we have video. Because according to DHS, these 7 heroic guys took an onslaught of a battalion against him or something. It's nonsense, people. It is nonsense and it's lies."

Congress needs to do its job. Now. Before it's too late.

The deadly shooting in Minneapolis today was a straight-up execution of a protester by Trump's federal brownshirts. The thugs wrestled him to the ground. They pistol-whipped him, then shot him multiple times. They murdered him.

Pritzker: "An American president should be standing up, calling for calm. That's not what this president ever does. In fact, he wants the temperature to go up. Why? Because what he's looking for is an excuse to invoke the Insurrection Act, to bring actual troops into American cities."

Too obvious a point even to make, perhaps. But there was no “unrest” in Minneapolis before ICE and CBP showed up. ICE and CBP are the cause of the chaos…and the killings. Get them out of there.

I am watching what is happening in Minneapolis on Ali Velshi and one of the ICE officers (off camera) literally says, “It’s like Call of Duty. Pretty cool huh?” as they shoot whatever it is they are shooting. Agents walking around, guns unholstered for no reason. This is insanity

Alex Pretti, the man killed by federal agents today in Minneapolis, appears to have been a registered nurse, an athlete, a son and a brother, with ties to Colorado and Wisconsin. Here is a photo he used for several accounts.

Sayre: "My background is in international humanitarian response in conflict zones in Yemen, Haiti, Syria, Iraq, and Ukraine. What I've seen here is what I've seen there. A powerful entity violently and intentionally terrorizing people."

Being armed isn’t a shooting justification in itself. And def not after you’ve been disarmed

This is ok tho

Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him. White. Hot. Rage.

The 7 Democrats who voted for this, KNOWING ICE would get worse, should have no future in Democratic politics. There’s plenty of blame to go around. But these 7 had the power to at least try to stop it, and they did the opposite. They funded it. bsky.app/profile/andr...

On the execution in Minnesota: Obviously, the individuals involved should be held accountable. But responsibility goes to the top of ICE and CBP, and DHS. Their appropriations come up next week in the senate. Not a cent for DHS without pulling ICE and CBP off the streets, in MN and everywhere else.

Minneapolis Police Chief O'Hara: "The video speaks for itself. We have identified this person - 37-year-old, white male, resident of the city. The only interaction that we are aware of with law enforcement has been for traffic tickets and we believe he is a lawfully gun owner with a permit to carry"

Way to go Republicans! You freaks.

Well well well. He had a permit to carry after all. Murder

Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey: "I just saw a video of more than 6 masked agents pummeling one of our constituents and shooting him to death. How many more residents, how many more Americans need to die or get badly hurt for this operation to end?"

I just spoke with the White House after another horrific shooting by federal agents this morning. Minnesota has had it. This is sickening. The President must end this operation. Pull the thousands of violent, untrained officers out of Minnesota. Now.

There has been an increasing sense in Minneapolis that we are on our own, that our elected representatives are unwilling and/or unable to take action to get these murderous Nazi thugs out of our community. I really hope that changes today. The time for pleading TV hits ended weeks ago.

This is so overwhelmingly sad to see happening.

So the “everyone should be armed” second amendment crowd is using the fact the a man was armed (maybe) as justification? Is this right?

ICE agents are America's failures, basically indistinguishable from lazy school shooters, losers who want to play Call of Duty on our streets against people who can't fight back. They have unlimited ammo and toss tear gas like they're pressing L1. They have to be defunded and jailed. All of them.

Protester in Minneapolis just before disappearing in gas: "Fuck you! Stop. Damn! I'm 70 years old and I'm fuckin' angry!"

Minneapolis protester as he's being brutalized by feds: "You're gonna have to kill me! You're gonna have to kill me! I've done nothing wrong! My name is Matthew James! I'm a US citizen! You're gonna kill me! Is that what you want?" (You can hear his wife screaming)

The photo of 5-year-old Liam Ramos being detained by ICE is a shameful look for America Immigration and Customs Enforcement was bad under previous presidents, but the agency and its agents have never been like this.

Gov. Janet Mills: "If they have warrants, show the warrants. In America, we don't believe in secret arrests or secret police."

Breaking NYT: The FBI agent who sought to investigate the federal immigration officer who fatally shot Renee Good has resigned from the bureau, according to two people familiar with the matter, after leadership pressured her to discontinue a civil rights inquiry into the officer.

You know, I think I once read a book somewhere that explained this .... 🤔

Oh, wait, I think I remember now!

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.

What Renee Goodman autopsy reveals via family ordered independent study. Trump said he'd learned that her father was a strong Trump supporter & that he hopes that remains. I'd say he seriously lost any hope of retaining this supporter now. www.rawstory.com/renee-good-2...

Rod Stewart calls out “draft dodger” Trump for denigrating the service of allied combat vets, and says that PM Keir Starmer must insist that Trump publicly apologize.

#OTD in 1911, Marie Curie was proposed for membership in the French Academy of Sciences--and promptly voted down. 11 months later she won her second Nobel Prize (Chemistry). 51 years later, Marguerite Perey (a student of Curie), became the first woman member of the Academy. #WomenInSTEM

Dear NATO allies. When we were attacked you were there for us & tragically, many from your countries were killed, or wounded. To their families & countrymen, please know how deeply sorry i am.. that despicable, hurtful lies were said by this president. You are respected and America is grateful

Caught directly in a lie

Blanche sends Ghislane Maxwell to Club Fed, kills an investigation of Ross, and launches an investigation of the victim. A truly evil bastard.

Tell us something that we didn't know. Unfortunately, no article came with the photo.

Don’t forget Trump said he’d end the Russia-Ukraine war in 24 hours. Since then when asked he’s said we’re close, 2 weeks. Putin has no interest in stopping and wants Europe. Trump wants the western hemisphere. No one will fuck with Xi. His Bored of Peace is already known to be a scam.

Kaitlan Collins to Mike Lawler: "Do you trust the DHS version of what happened? I mean, they also called a Renee Good a 'domestic terrorist' right after she was killed."

CNN put together a clip of JD Vance claiming ICE agents have "absolute immunity" followed by him two weeks later claiming "I didn't say that officers who engage in wrongdoing would enjoy immunity"

Endless cruelty

If you’re defending kidnapping a five year old, you’re losing
