Video shows ICE leaving behind an infant and broken glass after arresting a man with no criminal history.
“There was a car seat in the back... There were broken glass shards all over it... There was just this tiny peanut of a baby. He was crying.”

Not lost on me that the type of people who tried to attack any criticism of Kirk after his death are all over socials shouting Pretti and Good deserved it actually

Comer on Fox right now urging Trump to pull ICE out of Minneapolis to *punish* Minnesotans — will prove to the state how good it was to have ICE there! This is really some 5-D chess

When ICE threatens, “Did you not learn your lesson”
Its not lost on me the tactics is using mirrors what Israel does to Palestinians
You terrorize the reporters (in this case peaceful observers) to try to limit exposure.
When non lethal means dont work, you slowly amplify to assassinations.

Their 2nd Amendment has always been about their right wing militia cosplaying
Bookmark that Vice President and future presidential candidate JD Vance retweeted a post that said Alex Pretti was “an assassin who tried to murder federal agents.”

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.

I know people are saying “dont watch the video”, and generally that is my take on violent videos…
But in this climate of gaslighting. Watch the videos.

Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey: "I just saw a video of more than 6 masked agents pummeling one of our constituents and shooting him to death. How many more residents, how many more Americans need to die or get badly hurt for this operation to end?"

What problems can arise from an army of isolated, red pilled men who were raised on call of duty and internet brain rot/snuff violence videos
I am watching what is happening in Minneapolis on Ali Velshi and one of the ICE officers (off camera) literally says, “It’s like Call of Duty. Pretty cool huh?” as they shoot whatever it is they are shooting. Agents walking around, guns unholstered for no reason. This is insanity

This would give cops the right to execute literally any armed conservative
