Here's the thing, Greg — free speech is still protected by the First Amendment under the Constitution.
If you want folks to stop saying you're the secret police who are kidnapping and killing people, maybe stop acting like the secret police who are kidnapping and killing people.

Bovino: "When politicians, community leaders, & some journalists engage in that heated rhetoric we keep talking about, when they make the choice to vilify law enforcement calling law enforcement 'Gestapo' or using the term 'kidnapping,' that is a choice & there are actions & consequences."

This is How We Fight Back Against ICE and Fascism with Indivisible's Leah Greenberg
The Trump Administration has overreached in its defense of the murder of Alex Pretti & Renee Good. The majority must go on offense and continue organizing against fascism and ICE.

When Donald Trump says who he really is, believe him.
He's raising your grocery prices.
He's violating your civil rights.
He's rolling back your health care.
He's taking away your education.
It's past time to stand up, push back, and be loud for America.

Out of the tragedy of this moment may come an opportunity to stop Trump’s authoritarian project in its tracks, or at least to slow it and weaken it and begin to disable it. Doing so would be the tribute Renee Good and Alex Pretti deserve. lnk.thebulwark.com/49UULdP

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

Call the truth what it is. He is a Fascist dictator and MAGA is the new Fascist party of the US. GOP was neutered and gutted - it no longer exists outside of Trump.

Yes, It’s Fascism
Until recently, I thought it a term best avoided. But now, the resemblances are too many and too strong to deny.

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.

The party that has spent unlimited resources and energy getting states to pass laws to allow citizens to openly carry loaded weapons anywhere - now believes that exercising this right is permission for law enforcement to murder you.
Honestly, how dumb do they think we are?

Minnesota National Guard members have arrived at a federal building and were directed to distribute donuts, coffee, and hot chocolate to anti-ICE protesters. Guard members were issued reflective vests so they would not be mistaken for federal agents.

If you want proof that Trump is going to try to rig the elections, here it is:
In a letter to Gov. Tim Walz Saturday, Bondi claimed that Walz could “restore the rule of law” by complying with a list of demands, including giving the Department of Justice (DOJ) the state’s voter registration records.
