It makes you sound crazy to say this out loud, but it's becoming increasingly clear that the United States government has been effectively toppled by a group of overt pedophiles

The GOP administration has arrested a reporter for reporting, yet refuses to release the names of the masked agents who murdered a citizen in the street.

This is America under the GOP/Trump regime.

The Constitution is a meaningless scrap of paper.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Incredible.

If you’re keeping score in the political realignment, Democrats have now claimed:

> The 1st, 2nd, and 4th Amendments
> The flag
> Reagan, MLK, and Lincoln
> The American Revolution
> The Constitution itself

Republicans are left with:
> Trump
> Jeffrey Epstein’s child sex ring
> CBS

A reminder to the news media: β€œconflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

Border Patrol has now added the Second Amendment to the list of constitutional rights its officers routinely trample.

If only there was some way of knowing that this would happen.

He brandished a phone.

He was a LEGAL gun owner. They disarmed him, officially rendering him "defenseless."

After pistol-whipping him in the head they emptied multiple rounds into him.

THIS IS STRAIGHT UP MURDER IN THE FIRST DEGREE. Why is there statewide manhunt for these murderers?

"Brandish" now apparently means legally carry a concealed handgun in their waistband with a permit.

Republican Political Party has opted out of our social contracts. The pledge of allegiance. Civil rights. Civil, State and Federal Laws. The Constitution. Human decency. Christianity. Bill of rights. Declaration of Independence. They are not living in America on the same terms as the rest of us.

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.

Holy shit.

He was filming. He went over to help a lady that ICE shoved down. Agents engaged him.

His hands were on the pavement when he was shot.

He never had his hand on a weapon.

Cold blooded murder.

Republicans: everyone must be able to carry any gun at all times,
up to and including high powered rifles, to protect themselves against tyranny

also Republicans, without batting an eye: carrying a gun is unquestionable justification for federal agents to shoot you dead in the street

And it's clear that this man didn't want to do "maximum damage" and "massacre law enforcement." He was filming and concerned about a woman on the scene. END/

You'll notice Bovino says that the individual approached them with a 9mm. Nowhere does it say he brandished it. It was clearly holstered and removed by CBP BEFORE he was executed. And no one "assaulted" any LEOs. 3/

"This looks like a situation where an individual wanted to do maximum damage and massacre law enforcement. Then about 200 rioters arrived at the scene and began to obstruct and assault law enforcement."

None of this is true. 2/

BOVINO (bullshit incoming): "During this operation, an individual approached US CBP agents with a 9mm semiautomatic handgun. The agents attempted to disarm the individual, but he violently resisted. Fearing for his life...a CBP agent fired defensive shots. 1/

They see all of our rights as conditional. We’ve been told individuals have a fundamental right to bear firearms. Now, when someone is executed by government agents, we’re told the mere presence of the firearm was an intent to massacre and a justification for his murder.
