#GVerse Chicago turnout this morning was INSANE.
Thousands hit the streets demanding justice for Alex Pretti and calling out the federal crackdown that killed him.
This isn’t “local unrest” anymore. It’s national.

Independents will decide upcoming elections. (Let's assume for the sake of argument that there will be elections in the future.)
Are we better off than a year ago?
Independents: 24% yes and 52% no.
No wonder Trump is suing the pollsters. LOL

On Saturday, federal agents horrifically shot and killed 37-year-old Alex Pretti, an ICU nurse who cared for veterans, in the Eat Street neighborhood of south Minneapolis after brutally beating him in front of witnesses. Enough is enough. #NoKings #ICEOUTforGood #AbolishICE

Yes, they're hell bent making the murder of those who dissent seem legal and reasonable.
Cuz in this fascist regime, anyone who dissents is a domestic terrorist and an enemy of the state.

The Washington Post published a clear video of federal agents removing Alex Pretti's handgun moments before he was fatally shot. There's nothing in the video to suggest Pretti even reached for his weapon.

Remember the Bundy insanity during the Obama years? Armed guys occupied a federal office and one of their buddies took position with a sniper rifle aimed at federal agents?
Exactly how many of those guys were shot and killed?

Someday you'll be involved in a reasonable conversation with someone who mentions he was in ICE in 2026.
And you will be morally obligated to spit on this person and out him to everyone you know. He must be ostracized and become a pariah to decent society.
They need to wear this for a lifetime.

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.
