ICE OFF MSNOW!

@EricMGarcia: What do you make of Kristi Noem calling Alex Pretti a domestic terrorist?

AOC: Kristi Noem’s actions in Minnesota and her leadership on ICE in general are grounds for impeachment.

We already live in a surveillance state.

ICE lets its agents wear masks so they can’t be identified; meanwhile, they scan our faces. They know who we are, where we’ve been, and who we’re connected to.

They’re openly building a 24/7 social media surveillance operation.

I want him prosecuted, like all the other ones. I'm beginning to get a little impatient because the only ones being named seem to be Democrats.

And we know damn well,there were others. Jeffrey Epstein was elbows, deep in the financial, investment and banking world. He didn't just serve Democrats.

This is the kind of fight we need from opposition leaders. Thank you Chicago!

It's a photograph from the January 6 Capitol riot. It says: "If not obeying a cop was the standard for use of deadly force, everyone at January 6 would be laying in a mass grave" it was posted originally by Linda Battle on Quora.

It's a drawing of president Obama. In the background is a chaotic scene that you would recognize today from the ICE operations. President Obama is holding a sign that says: "Where were all the protests when I used ICE to deport over 3 million people?" Underneath that it says:"Glad MAGA asked. Because he didn't arrest US citizens, violate the Constitution, kidnap asylum seekers in court or use kids as bait. You're welcome!"

There's a right way and a wrong way to do things.

Did DHS post stock photo claiming it was Alex Pretti's gun? What we know On X, the Department of Homeland Security posted a photo of a gun it said Pretti carried when he approached federal agents in Minneapolis.

Was the photo of the gun allegedly belonging to Pretti. They could come to no definitive conclusion, because DHS would not provide metadata or a copy of the photo.

Was Alex Pretti fired from nursing job for misconduct? Here's the truth After Pretti was fatally shot by U.S. Border Patrol agents, his family and friends said he became the target of a smear campaign.

Just like with Renee Good, the right is trying to figure out how to tarnish his reputation and make his assassination his fault.
