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.

I'm sure a few ICE agents suspect this already, but it seems very clear that DJT, Miller & Bovino WANT an ICE agent to get killed. They need their own martyr. There is a reason they are putting them in increasingly volatile situations.

Everything they do is at his direction - often after his threats. As long as he runs policy in the WH, nothing will change no matter how many Bovinos come and go.

And then lie about these lies, lying that they'll withdraw ICE occupation in MN in exchange for its voter data. (Yeah right.) I like that Tim Walz told her she should be attending to releasing the remaining 99% of the #EpsteinFiles in response.

There is A LOT of misinformation going around about the continued funding of ICE.
It ISN'T a done deal.
Yes, it passed in the House, but the Senate hasn't taken it up yet.
That's the way this shit works.
CONTACT YOUR SENATOR NOW AND TELL THEM TO VOTE THIS FUNDING DOWN.
Since July, I've tracked at least 2,300 cases in which federal judges have ruled ICE has illegally detained people without bond or due process.
This is one that stands out:

AND IMPEACH AND REMOVE.
We need to clamor for that even if the votes aren't thereβyet.
This lawless administration is now operating under the βwhat are you gonna do about itβ doctrine. A John Roberts creation.

Marylanders have witnessed this cruelty in our own communities β during a school drop-off in Salisbury and in Glen Burnie on Christmas Eve. These are not isolated incidents.
Saying there must be trials isn't just an emotive aspiration.
Congress can:
- Create a new court (complying w/ 6A jury vicinage)
- Give it jurisdiction over defined category of crimes
- Also create dedicated prosecutors for the same
- Strip SCOTUS of appellate jurisdiction
It can be done.
Alex Pretti was an American hero. He saved lives. He protected people. He cared deeply about his community, unlike the murderous thugs who killed him.
The very last thing he did was try to help a woman who had been pepper-sprayed and violently shoved to the ground by ICE. 1/
All 10 shots were fired AFTER they removed the gun from Prettiβs waist. Every single shot was fired after he was disarmed.

Read that againβ¦. The Wall Street Journal is calling out the lies
Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara: "People have had enough. This is the third shooting in less than 3 weeks. The MPD went the entire year last year recovering about 900 guns from the street, arresting hundreds of violent offenders, and we didn't shoot anyone ... this is not sustainable."
