Easy to be cynical but this seems like it’s heading in the right direction

Videos of the deadly Minneapolis shooting of Alex Pretti contradict government statements Law enforcement leaders are expressing alarm over a deadly shooting by federal officers in Minneapolis.

What else would we expect from a lying administration.

Barack Obama Warns The Killing Of Alex Pretti Should Be A 'Wake-Up' Call For Americans In Rare Statement Thank you, Mr. President.

"The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault."

ICE murdered Renée Good in broad daylight. Less than 3 weeks later, they killed Alex Pretti, shooting him 10 times. Every day, we watch as people are ripped from their cars, their homes, their lives.

We can't allow ourselves to look away from this cruelty. Abolish ICE.

Alex Pretti, the man killed by federal agents today in Minneapolis, appears to have been a registered nurse, an athlete, a son and a brother, with ties to Colorado and Wisconsin.

Here is a photo he used for several accounts.

They are dividing America, shooting American citizens and causing harm to them. ICE isn't targeting non-citizens; in my view, ICE is targeting all American citizens!

How many more?

A video of Alex Pretti reading out the final salute of an unnamed veteran he cared for until the end of his life in the ICU, posted to Facebook by his son.

WOW on Pretti's denial of medical treatment

"I informed the ICE agents that I am a physician, and I asked to
assess the victim.

At first, the ICE agents wouldn't let me through. ... But none of the ICE agents who were near the victim were performing CPR, ... None of the agents were helping him."

I’ve reached out to both Gov. Walz and Sen. Klobuchar following the latest shooting involving federal agents in Minnesota.

Marylanders have witnessed this cruelty in our own communities – during a school drop-off in Salisbury and in Glen Burnie on Christmas Eve. These are not isolated incidents.

Minneapolis protester as he's being brutalized by feds: "You're gonna have to kill me! You're gonna have to kill me! I've done nothing wrong! My name is Matthew James! I'm a US citizen! You're gonna kill me! Is that what you want?" (You can hear his wife screaming)

Imagine this in a trial.

Devastating first-hand witness to Alex Pretti's killing

Declaration filed in federal court:

"I don't know why they shot him. He was only helping. I was five feet from him and they just shot him."

Yep, ICE is breaking the law daily. Congress, hello?

Carney: "We stand firmly with Greenland and Denmark and fully support their unique right to determine Greenland's future. Our commitment to NATO's Article 5 is unwavering ... Canada strongly opposes tariffs over Greenland"

He keeps referring to Greenland as Iceland.
His dementia is on full display. Just look at him slumped over the podium . Time for people to get up and leave the clown show.

In Davos, the world is watching an American president’s mind dissolve in real time.

Screenshot of an X post by Acyn quoting Pete Buttigieg. The text says that in a country that amended its Constitution to ban alcohol and later reversed it, the U.S. could also pass an amendment clarifying that corporations are not people and money is not speech. Below the text is a photo of Buttigieg standing on a stage holding a microphone, speaking to an audience seated behind him.

Well said. And if the federal laws won't do this, the states, which grant corporate status, can and should.

How the far right has weaponised free speech - Index on Censorship A UEA professor and author says it is time to call out the charade and say what Trump and his ilk really want

We must call out the far right for weaponising free speech. Professor Anshuman Mondal traces how, historically and today, free speech is co-opted to serve the far right's principle goal: the rehabilitation of racism ⬇️

In the President's big speech at Davos, he keeps referring to America's need for Iceland. He came here to ask for Greenland.

This was a commission for a pet portrait I painted a few years ago. The dog is called Betty. She's beautiful!

Trump: "Whoo. I'm glad my finger wasn't in that sucker. That could've dome some damage but you know what? I wouldn't have shown the pain. I would've gone back. Boy did you hear that? That was nasty. But I would not have shown the pain. I would've acted like nothing happens as my finger fell off."
