Rand Paul to ICE officials on moments before Pretti's killing: "No one in America believes that shoving that woman's face in the snow was deescalation."
Note that ICE officials then confirm it was improper for her to be thrown down.

The SAVE Act is meant to make voting harder and more intimidating so people don't do it. When you combine it with ICE agents potentially being deployed at the polls, it's clear what Trump is trying to do before the midterms - make it harder to vote.

"While he rushes to place his name on monuments before he leaves office, he’s given every indication he’s fine leaving behind a trail of utter and complete destruction. In short, Donald J. Trump is a nihilist."
We are all passengers in Trump’s death cab

ICE thinks they can just leave Minnesota after murdering two Americans in cold blood.

This is as big a lie as the one about the 2020 election, probably even more dangerous because so many "normie" Republican officials glommed onto it to curry favor with Trump. Corporate media never exposed it, and an uneducated electorate remains confused.
Bondi shamelessly lies: "Robert Mueller found no evidence of foreign interference in 2016. Have you apologized to President Trump?"

The Bondi style is vintage fascist rhetoric. Never respond to questions and instead hurl baseless accusations at the questioner. Also state over and again that the acts and decisions of the Leader may never be questioned. This comports with a political theory, but it's not democracy.
