Kristi Noem, Donald Trump and the entire Administration are lying. They murdered a man in cold blood and are trying to cover it up.

Here is everything in one clip, exposing their lies.

🚨BREAKING: State election leaders and voting rights advocates across the country are blasting U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi for exploiting the killing of a U.S. citizen in Minneapolis by a federal immigration officer to “blackmail” Minnesota into handing over access to its unredacted voter rolls.
‘All-out assault on our democracy:’ Bondi’s Minnesota blackmail letter draws righteous fury from state election leaders
“This isn't leadership. This is blackmail," Arizona Secretary of State Adrian Fontes said. "This is the way organized crime works."

You see, what has to happen here is that Pretti’s family HAS to sue Miller for $100 million for defamation of their son’s character.

They’d win hands down, Miller would be bankrupted, and a serious message would be sent to all the other liars and criminals in this administration.

The officer who shot Alex worked for DHS for 8 years. The officer who shot Renee worked for DHS for over 10 years. Both are considered “highly trained.”

The problem isn’t "training." DHS was built to violate our rights and has been empowered to act with impunity. We must MELT ICE and dismantle DHS.

How many years have we been watching gun nuts open carry semiautomatic rifles into, like, a Dunkin' Donuts as a statement against government control? And they're now silent over a citizen being murdered by federal agents and then blamed for legally carrying a firearm?

If you are a federal agent for the Trump regime you can shoot and kill someone while wearing a mask and you will never be prosecuted, fired or disciplined and nobody will be allowed to know your name. You are free to carry on like nothing happened. That’s Trump’s America.

Taking our SS numbers, names, addresses, and who we voted for isn't. Well it is stealing our private data.
So simply naming someone is doxxing, but taking photos and license plate numbers to create a database of the opposition for government stalking and harassment purposes is not?

Naming someone is not doxxing them, and moving them to another city to kill more is conspiracy against rights.

"ICE will leave Minnesota if you hand over your voter rolls" tells you everything you need to know.

This was never about immigration or fraud. It was always about rigging elections.

That's putting it mildly. I think it could destroy America as a functioning nation.
We need to get it broadly understood that Stephen Miller's ethnic cleansing will result in a permanent metastasized immigrant carceral state and paramilitary warfare on US streets that goes on *for years.*

The internal logic of his agenda dictates this of necessity.

Had Republicans had just stuck to hammering Democrats on fraud they would've had a potent political weapon. Instead they turned it into a hate campaign against Somalis and an orgy of violence against Minnesotans and now we're getting statements like this 👇
pretty wild statement re: Republican Chris Madel drop from race for MN governor:

"Saying he cannot support the national GOP's 'stated retribution on citizens of our state, nor can I count myself a member of a party that would do so."

five more shots in his body, after the nine or 10 that killed Pretti.

five more shots in his body, as most have fled & this one guy just pumps five more shots into him as he's lying, prone, defenseless, mb even dead.

“He’s killing us in the streets and we still have to pay our taxes in April” is an incredibly compelling point.
Before speaking with two armed men at the Pretti vigil last night, a man approached & asked if I was going to tell the truth. I said yes. He told me how frustrated he was at the media & the harm it’s causing to his community.

I asked if he wanted to share words for the media on camera, & he did:

This can’t be repeated enough. Not only won’t they investigate, they may never even tell us who did this.
