Say his name, Alex Jeffrey Pretti.
Say her name, Renee Nicole Good.

Murdered by the MAGA regime.

Congress must stop the violence by ICE, not bankroll it.

I’m a NO on the funding bill for DHS and ICE coming to the Senate this week.

As Trump’s masked, untrained agents terrorize our communities, we should not give a penny more to this rogue agency.

Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him.

White. Hot. Rage.

Understand: They only mean "2nd Amendment Rights" for themselves.

Alex Pretti was murdered while trying to protect a woman from being assaulted by federal agents

ICE raids turn life into a daily terror for Minneapolis schoolkids: ‘This is a generational trauma’ As Trump-deployed agents pervade the region, students struggle to carry on with lessons while carrying grief and fear that they or their loved ones will be taken

1️⃣ He didn't say that.
2️⃣ He said it, but you misunderstood him.
3️⃣ He said what you understood, but he was just trolling.
4️⃣ He was serious but he's just negotiating, not going to do it.
5️⃣ He's going to do it for grand strategy reasons I've invented.
6️⃣ Look what you liberals made him do.

Man detained in Minneapolis dies in ICE custody in Texas A man arrested by immigration officials in Minneapolis died in federal detention in Texas.

This is deeply disturbing, especially after reports of growing concerns about the conditions at this facility. An investigation must take place.

DANISH PARLIAMENT MEMBER: “🇺🇸 had 30 bases on Greenland, why did you leave? You can resume that tomorrow without attacking a NATO ally… the rationale lacks factual foundation and doesn’t stand any logic testing.”

(Unless the point is to hurt us and end NATO, a Putin/Xi goal)

Where the hell are Google and Apple enforcing their app store terms of service on X? Grok doing CSAM should instantly be a removal from the app store. Any other app doing this would be pulled instantly. Journalists should be asking for comment from these companies.

My God.

ICE shot a legal observer in the face in Minneapolis. Abolish ICE and prosecute every single one of their deputized terrorists.

The oil companies are a co-equal branch of government. So are the tech bros. Congress isn't.

We cannot become numb to the outrage of this. The wife of the President’s Senior Advisor threatens a sovereign nation.

As of this week, millions of Americans are now paying thousands more for health insurance.

If the President and Congressional GOP think Washington has the capacity to "run" Venezuela right now, why won't they fix the insurance cost crisis they've created here at home?

In a nutshell.

"Not only are they trying to dismantle climate science, they're trying to dismantle our ability to protect people from the devastating of climate change."

@michaelemann.bsky.social slams the Trump administration's dismantling of NCAR, a key climate research facility in Colorado.

“An American Nightmare”: Three Men Deported to CECOT and Their Families Reflect on Their Monthslong Ordeal For months, Carmen, Lina and Doris awaited news about their loved ones, who were sent to a maximum-security Salvadoran prison by the Trump administration. Now that the families have been reunited, the...

CBS News may not want you to see its CECOT reporting, but I'm happy to share this powerful video that our team produced this year.

The cruel irony of Republicans voting down ACA subsidies is that it will end up hurting Trump voters the most.

57% of ACA Marketplace enrollees live in congressional districts represented by a Republican.

They're selling out their own voters.

The key question in American politics now is whether public disapproval of Trump will grow fast enough to save our democracy before Trump builds such a crushing dictatorship that public opinion no longer matters.

Republicans voted for a trillion dollars in tax breaks for the 1%, but they couldn't vote to protect 20 million Americans from seeing a doubling — on average — of their health care premiums.

Pathetic.

FIFA thought giving needy man-child Donald Trump his silly "peace prize" would save their World Cup from being hosted by a demented police state.
