Don Lemon is not the only reporter who was arrested by federal agents overnight — local independent journalist Georgia Fort just went live on FB to say federal agents were also at her door to take her into custody over her protest coverage in Minneapolis.

Protesters detained, hit by tear gas near Dilley family detention facility
Omg! Local San Antonio news is at a protest in Dilley, Texas at the Family Prison where Liam Ramos is being held.
Y'all I'm crying so hard. These young people are so brave. I'm guessing most are from San Antonio.
Absolutely clear video proof that the cops were the only violent actors here.

I’ve never heard of a “law enforcement” agency putting an officer who just killed someone back on the street under 24 hours. And that’s because all shootings are treated as homicides pending investigation. This is as clear a sign as you’ll get that DHS personnel enjoy practical immunity from murder.

The MAGA guys on X who defend the executions of Renee Good and Alex Pretti would do that with mass murder on a scale you can’t even imagine. They are beyond reason or empathy. Completely brain poisoned, tribal fiends.

The fact that every right winger with influence screams "who is paying for all of this" tells you exactly how awash in cash they all are, and how much they rely on that to keep their movement afloat.

I think a lot of us get hope wrong. Hope, I do not believe, is an emotion. In fact, hope makes space for lots of emotions to exist alongside it. You can DO hope scared, angry, sad etc...
Hope doesn't find us. We make hope through action and struggle. It's a practice of living and is re-made daily.

I've been studying the history of US, and indeed, global policing my whole career and I can't make it more clear to law makers that this isn't a bastardization of policing, it is its purest form and logical conclusion. The impunity, militarization, deference, legitimacy, racial targeting, etc.

BREAKING:
Pam Bondi has sent a letter to Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz demanding, in part, that state officials turn over voter records to the Justice Department.

I remain absolutely furious that all this shit in Minneapolis started because a barely-literate homeschooled mormon made a video trying to run up in daycare centers trying to find people of Somalian descent doing fraud despite the ringleader (a white woman) being in jail since March. Demonic.

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.

If you believe anything DHS says about today's shooting after their near-instantaneous fabrication about the shooting of Renee Good, I've got a bridge to sell you.

I'm on site where a federal agent shot a Minneapolis man this morning. It's bad.
Dozens of federal agents are facing off with hundreds of outraged residents. People being tear gassed, helicopters above, I keep hearing pops, and lots of loud BANGS.
This smoke is from tear gas:

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

There’s video now. Worst thing I’ve ever seen. The entire ICE contingent needs to be arrested

It looks like this man was shot for getting back up after being beaten in the face with a can of pepper spray. I counted 12 shots.
ICE is a derelict extra-constitutional occupying force that must be abolished. Solidarity forever with Minneapolis.

This is all EXTREMELY fluid right now. The situation is very bad, that much is clear. But this is all initial reporting from observers. There will likely be video, maybe a lot of it.

Initial report is that two observers got into a shoving match with eight agents, one observer was wrestled to the ground, and then an ICE agent pulled out a sidearm and shot the man on the ground five times.

If initial reports are true, they shot someone who they'd wrestled to the ground. Potentially an observer. These agents must be arrested and brought to justice.
