Although the American RIGHT is obsessed with reviving "masculinity," its vilification of Pretti demonstrates a complete misunderstanding of its meaning. It was Pretti, in fact, who served as a model of the courageous male “protector.”

Alex Pretti is a hero.

Stop trying to gaslight us. We SEE you. We know what you did. You have no regard for human rights and dignity. Your days are numbered. You're gone as soon as Trump leaves office.

I've been sent video from the end of the ICE raid at the Zipps on 32nd and Shea.

It shows protesters -- on the sidewalk, impeding no one -- getting drive-by maced by an ICE agent from a truck as it rolls away down the road.

Hard to see how such tactics are justifiable.

Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey said he spoke with Donald Trump this afternoon, and the president agreed “that the present situation cannot continue.” Earlier, Trump said he spoke with Gov. Tim Walz and said they seemed to be “on a similar wavelength.”
