INTERVIEW WITH MANAGER OF BUILDING THAT IS BLOCKED BY THE TESLA SCREEN
The screen blocks their view and the power supply is so loud, the tenants can no longer even open their windows.
It's another example of how Tesla is, at best, a bunch of douchebags.

I got kicked off TikTok in the Fall when I speculated the obvious connection between Trump & Epstein. I never went back.
Here's what I said, bc I was so tired of media asking the question and never trying to speculate or editorialize a reason for evasion (pdf pipeline):

Kristi Noem has been an abject failure leading the Department of Homeland Security for the last year – and the abuses of power we’re seeing from ICE are the latest proof that she has lost control over her own department and staff. 🧵

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?

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 president should be impeached and convicted, as should everyone responsible for these outrages. ICE should be disbanded. So should the Department of Homeland Security. And the people who have killed should be investigated and brought before judges and juries.

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.

Man, I bet the NRA is going to be furious when they hear that jack-booted thugs from the federal government executed a law-abiding citizen for exercising his Second Amendment right to carry a handgun.
Any second now, I'm sure.
He was a white guy, if that helps?

I agree with Stephen Miller.
There was a domestic terrorist in Minneapolis today.
He was the ICE officer who executed Alex Pretti.

Proper de-escalation/apprehension protocols would have prevented this.

Local police haven't intervened bc that will allow Trump to declare the Insurrection Act.
But they have no choice now.

I just watched the shooting video. It's a horrific beating and execution in the middle of the street.
If local and state officials don't move to arrest everyone involved for murder, they need to resign. Making arrests will de-escalate the situation. Do nothing and this is going to explode.

ICE just shot another one of my neighbors. They had the person on the ground, being beaten by several agents, and then fired multiple shots. In front of the donut shop where we like to get donuts for our kids.
