“I watched him die… then I watched them maneuver his body like a rag doll— only to discover it was because they wanted to count the bullet wounds and see how many they ‘got’, like he was a deer.”
It's not quite the most pressing issue at the moment, but the American people absolutely have a right to know the names of the federal officials who shot and killed a man peacefully protesting, who was on his knees, prone in the street when they shot him in the back.
The American Federation of Government Employees, which represents border patrol officers at the National Border Patrol Council, calls on Kristi Noem and Stephen Miller to resign or be fired
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.
“Freedom is not free. We have to work at it. Nurture it. Protect it. Even sacrifice for it.”
Minnesota National Guard members have arrived at a federal building and were directed to distribute donuts, coffee, and hot chocolate to anti-ICE protesters. Guard members were issued reflective vests so they would not be mistaken for federal agents.
ICE is no longer a border patrol and customs agency.
It is Trumps political police force staffed with insurrectionists and acting way outside its legal and statutory bounds.
They are murdering peaceful protestors and lying to our faces.
Bovino is lying
They say “where’s the gun?” — After the shots
Because they don’t realize one of them had already taken it — before the shots

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.
We see you Minnesota 👏🏽
The Nobel committee would like a word.
The insurrection act was always the end goal - I’ve been talking about this for months. He’s been trying to find a city that would push back enough to give him a (flimsy) excuse to do it
Breaking NYT:
The Pentagon used a secret aircraft painted to look like a civilian plane in its first boat attack, according to officials briefed on the matter.
The laws of armed conflict forbid combatants from feigning civilian status.
That is a war crime called "perfidy."

It's hard even to comprehend how stupid this has become

They were having a calm exchange seconds before he murdered Renee Good, and she was barely moving and clearly avoiding him.
Stop the lies.
Walz: "I couldn't help but think, and it scares me a bit -- 'The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most important directive.' It certainly feels like that in this moment."
How embarrassing
Yes, JD. Let’s ask them if they think a stay at home mom, avowed Christian, and widow of a veteran deserved to be shot in the face and left to bleed out in her own car after dropping her 6-year-old off at school, for the crime of looking out for her neighbors. Let’s ask everyone running for office.
Ex-Minnesota Governor Jesse Ventura: “We’re a 3rd world country now. I know. I’ve been to ‘em. I spent 17 months in SE Asia while the draft dodger was playing golf… that’s what happens in a dictatorship. In comes the military. That’s what’s happening here.” 🇺🇸

The jobs report is in. What a disaster.
After Columbine I thought we would move heaven and earth to prevent mass shootings.
We did nothing and now they are almost a daily occurrence.
Today we watched an ICE thug brutally murder an American citizen in cold blood. A young mother.
If we do nothing this too will become a daily occurrence.
At odds, you can say it … because Noem is lying as ICE murders US citizens.
AOC: ICE has less accountability than virtually any law enforcement agency in the U.S., yet they are some of the most well-funded, operating with impunity—and we just saw them murder an American citizen in cold blood in the street.
And she was a US citizen, yes?
