Workin' in the dark against your fellow man
But as sure as God made black and white
What's down in the dark will be brought to the light”

They keep showing us who they are.

Murdering our citizens for peacefully exercising their rights, ignoring our laws, gaslighting us for demanding justice…

They think their brutality will cower us into silence.

Into obeisance.

They clearly don’t know who we are.

They will.

“…exposed by this masthead, such as the extensive recruitment of its members by The Base, The Proud Boys and Combat 18. But others, including close ties to the terror cells Nordic Resistance Movement and Golden Dawn...”

In the early 1930s the SA was roughing people up, creating chaos in neighborhoods, seeking to terrorize with the occasional killing. By the late 1930s it had been supplanted by the SS, which was much better trained.
Also, may I say that I don’t agree with people saying ICE and CBP need “more training.” They’re doing exactly what this administration has trained them to—impose a reign of fear in blue cities. They don’t need more training. They need to be ripped up root and branch.

WSJ says ICE is lying.

I've been here 24 hours, but already with what I've seen, well, I genuinely believe we're going to win. People here are well aware that what happens here impacts the entire country, that it sets the tone for resistance. ICE is angry, ICE is terrified, of how deeply unpopular it is.

I came to Minneapolis to report on what's going on, and one of the main questions I showed up with is "just what is the scale of the resistance?" After all, we're all used to the news calling Portland a "war zone" or whatever when it's just some protests in one part of town.

For your strength of mind, no need to read the news story. Rather just reflect on what Carl T. Bergstrom relates about whom they chose to lead their organization.
I was a sensitive kid. I loved cats. I had OCD, undiagnosed.

When I was 9, a fraternity brother tortured a cat to death in my hometown. The details even now are beyond imagination. archive.is/xdmUL

I was traumatized for years from reading the news story.

The torturer? Now the head of the NRA.

Portland, please continue to show up. We cannot accept this blatant disregard for life, justice, and order from our federal government.

Show up how only you can. We will share information when we have it.

From the family of Alex Pretti:

“The sickening lies told about our son by the administration are reprehensible and disgusting. Alex is clearly not holding a gun when attacked by Trump's murdering and cowardly ICE thugs.”

Please get the truth out about our son. He was a good man. Thank you."

I just want to point out that Alex Pretti became a registered nurse in early 2021 -- the height of death from Covid. And he chose the ICU, the sickest patients, in Veterans Affairs.

Alex Jeffrey Pretti was an ICU nurse at a VA hospital. His life, through his profession, was dedicated to serving his community and our country.

As so many have now seen on video, his final act before he was killed by federal agents was doing everything in his power to protect his community.

AOC: "In directing this around Mayor Wray and Gov. Walz, claiming they are 'inciting,' Noem is equating disagreement with incitement ... she is laying the groundwork for the Insurrection Act ... they are taking issue with the people of Minnesota who have duly elected their own elected officials"

Walz: "It's a campaign of organized brutality against the people of our state, and today that campaigned claimed another life. I've seen the video from several angles and it's sickening. But I have a strong statement here for our federal govt: Minnesota's justice system will have the last word."

ICE agent: “It’s like Call of Duty, so cool huh?”

Other ICE agent: “Did you take the shot? Take the shot. Take the shot.”
