“To you this is murder?”
“Yes. I know it is. — People are feeling like there’s nobody here to help us. What can we do? The constitution doesn’t seem to matter.”

I didn’t know SS Miller oversaw these groups.
It’s very notable that Stephen Miller’s wife is going out of her way to highlight these comments.
Stephen Miller smeared Alex Pretti—calling him a “domestic terrorist” and “assassin” to justify his murder.
Now Katie Miller and her husband are trying to throw others under the bus.

“I watched him die… then I watched them maneuver his body like a rag doll— only to discover it was because they wanted to count the bullet wounds and see how many they ‘got’, like he was a deer.”

Investigating themselves. I don’t think so! A predetermined conclusion.
This is complete bullshit, and it's a criminal administration's transparent effort to cover up a crime.

Nice to see some religious people with a moral compass and humanity.
Wow— “Cardinal Tobin told hundreds of faithful gathered online that now is the time to say no — no to violence, no to indifference, and no to funding the U.S. government’s own “machinery of death.”

Abolish ICE is not enough.
Stern words for Greg Bovino or Kristi Noem is not enough.
We need prosecutions and trials.
Anything short of this position fails to address the gravity of this moment.

Blanche and the regime not only blame the victims for their deaths rather than trigger happy ICE executioners, but suggests that peaceful protests cannot involve shouting!! He sounds like Trump as he spews nonsense about our Constitutional rights and the failures of local government.

CBP chief Bovino has confirmed that the officers who executed Alex Pretti in the street yesterday are not only *not on administrative leave,* they have all been reassigned to other jurisdictions and are all on the street today.
This is totally unheard of for any officer-involved shooting

The videos and affidavits tell me the Trump regime and their TV channel Fox Noise are not only lying about the death of Alex Pretti but attempting to to take away our basic rights.
May we ultimately find justice, despite the fact we no longer have an independent DoJ.

Videos and eyewitnesses refute federal account of Minneapolis shooting
Trump officials have called the victim a "domestic terrorist." State officials warn such unfounded accusations threaten the integrity of the federal investigation.

Board of Peace? Grifting the dictators and aspiring dictators. Will Milei pay with the billions Trump gave him?
It is a Board of World Dictatorship, to implement the Evil type of rule as we see in Russia in all countries. All people becomes slaves to a few at the top who take all wealth to themself on a global scale. NO THANKS. It has nothing to do with peace, just as Truth social has nothing to do with truth

Central banks weren’t insulated from politics for fun. Countries that politicize monetary policy tend to get a short-term boom timed for ballots, followed by higher inflation and a lingering “can we trust you?” premium.

Politicians + temptation is usually a toddler-and-toy problem. But the bigger risk is the toddler who insists gravity is a hoax and jumps anyway. And that's why we need to watch the toddler who wants to remove Fed guardrails.

Let me try to articulate what I think the central economic issue of the current moment really is.
Wolfers: This is the most interventionist government of my lifetime. It’s the least conservative government of my lifetime. When you are the richest country in the world, maybe you are not the ones who should be tearing down your existing institutions. But that’s exactly what this president is doing

An unlawful execution. Rather like a lynching.
All 10 shots were fired AFTER they removed the gun from Pretti’s waist. Every single shot was fired after he was disarmed.

It is hard to conceive of a fool who could gull so many. They saw him on tv and thought that was real.
To be so relentlessly ignorant (and shameless about being so) is also a superpower.
