An ICE goon felt confident after physically assaulting a senior citizen in Santa Barbara, California.

I found the first investigative file from the first complainant against Epstein in 2005.

There are descriptions from the officer, over several interviews of the girl, of her pulling her knees up on the chair, drawing doodles, & the officer high-fiving her to keep her calm as she speaks of horror.

One issue is ICE is all about violently arresting random people who MIGHT be undocumented. A lot of immigration enforcement can be done via courts and administrative paperwork, and doesn’t require physical takedowns.

We handled immigration enforcement before ICE was created.

No. They didn’t bring extra patrols to “help with the violence.” They *are* the violence. They’re violent with every person they face, regardless of that person’s demeanor.

Raskin has always had a spine. But he can’t do anything without all the Dems and *some* Republicans.

Of course. And that’s why Dems need to lean in and work towards dismantling ICE.
First no funding.
Impeach Noem.
Demand hearings on ICE’s operation in MN.
Demand that Miller resign.

Don’t let up.

Yeah, a number of people think gray jacket fired the gun, maybe by mistake, maybe not. I can’t tell if he did. I certainly wouldn’t put it past them.

Watch the pattern:

A killing.
A narrative.
A label that turns a citizen into an enemy.

And suddenly, accountability becomes “propaganda,” and dissent becomes “extremism.”

This is how democratic norms erode — one word at a time.

Alex Pretti's coworkers taking a moment of silence in his memory this morning

I'm almost positive Alex's gun was already off the scene.

Video shows the "officer" in the gray jacket pulling the gun from Alex's waistband holster. We see gray-jacket walk away with that gun, and in that moment the first shot is fired.

@BillMelugin_
NEW: Since yesterday's deadly shooting in MN, I've talked to more than half a dozen federal sources involved immigration enforcement, including several in senior positions, who all tell me they have grown increasingly uneasy & frustrated w/ some of the claims & narratives DHS pushed in the aftermath of the shooting. 

Specifically, I'm told there is extreme frustration with DHS officials going on TV and putting out statements claiming that Alex Pretti was intending to conduct a "massacre" of federal agents or wanted to carry out "maximum damage", even after numerous videos appeared to show those claims were inaccurate. While they say it was a terrible decision to show up with a gun and inject himself into a federal law enforcement operation, there is no indication Pretti was there to murder law enforcement, as videos appear to show he never drew his holstered firearm.

These sources say this messaging from DHS officials has been catastrophic from a PR and morale perspective, as it is eroding trust and credibility - comparing it to when Democrats falsely claimed the border was closed or that Haitians were being whipped at the border.

Some of these sources have described DHS’ response to the shooting as “a case study on how not to do crisis PR”, one said they are so “fed up” that they wish they could retire, another said “DHS is making the situation worse”, and another added that “DHS is wrong” and “we are losing this war, we are losing the base and the narrative."

These sources all believe this is going to end up being what they call a “bad shoot”, a “shitty” situation that happened in seconds where agents likely heard “gun!”, then the disarmed firearm may have had an accidental discharge that spooked the agents, and they shot. The agents do not have the luxury of multiple slow motion angles - and had to make split second decisions. 

All of the sources support the mass deportation agenda, but have serious hesitations about the way it is …

Bill Melugin of Fox News may be the best-sourced journalist within ICE and CBP. If he's hearing this, the administration has a real problem.

Right? This isn't a "crazy story." This is a story about federal officers being assholes, and protestors locating them and telling them they're assholes. That's also not what doxing is.

I broke the story yesterday that masked ICE agents (not DOJ) were removing items including a personal computer from the home of Jonathan Ross, the ICE agent who shot Renee Good. I have yet to see a single news outlet cover this or an elected official even acknowledge it.

Renee Good was steering away from shooter. #minneapolis #reneegood #jonathanross #shooting #renee TikTok video by TheEggWatch

Some points i have gathered from shooting footage:
- Renee was looking at Masked Ice agent by door 1 to 2 seconds before being shot. She had no idea shooter suddenly decided to be in front of car
- shooter had forward momentum & decided to stop instead of stepping aside. www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8fLkfTc/

Yeah, but she seems to be reading from something someone else wrote. Couldn’t they find someone to write it who knew what they were talking about?

“Survival of the fittest” isn’t adequate with vaccination, unless we really are trying to weed out the vulnerable. Many people, not just antivaxers, are unnecessarily harmed when enough people don’t get vaccinated, and when diseases spread.

Listen to Dr. Rubin – not RFKjr, the HHS, or the CDC. This is dangerous – they're seeking to harm children and shorten their lives for political gain.
