Remembering Speaker Emeriti Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark today. I still can't fathom the unbelievable loss to Minnesota and how we will ever recover. But we will do everything we can to honor her legacy by continuing to fight for legislation that improves the lives of Minnesotans.

Yeah, let's not worry about terrorizing and killing citizens and legal immigrants, let's just recalibrate to avoid the blowback...

This was the official Whitehouse line, after Alex Pretti's murder.
Bovino said during a Saturday press conference that Pretti “wanted to do maximum damage and massacre law enforcement” before he was killed.
They don't get to walk it back! Trump, ICE, Bovino, Noem, Bondi, are domestic terrorists.

I agree!
Shutting the government down because the president’s thug army keeps murdering American citizens for no reason seems pretty reasonable, IMO!

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.

Trump administration lies are so blatantly outrageous its almost like they want you to know they are lying and don't care as part of their strategy to inflict as much horror as possible. Their message is, "we will kill whomever we want, whenever we want and get away with it."

All regime mouthpieces who have lied about the murder of VA nurse Alex Pretti must resign immediately. All DHS officials and agents involved must be prosecuted.

Alex Pretti, Renee Good, and Keith Porter Jr. were murdered. Marimar Martinez was shot. Mahmoud Khalil was arrested and jailed.

All of this is fucking senseless. Minnesota did not have an immigration problem. Trump sent his Nazi thugs here because he's racist against Somali people and to own libs like Tim Walz. Now two Minnesotans are dead and Minneapolis is on the verge of going up in flames. None. Of. This. Was. Necessary.

I have now watched the video of the execution today and it is absolutely horrifying. One cannot unsee it. You can clearly see in the video that an ICE agent fires multiple shots into the man *after* he is already shot and presumably dead. It was an execution in broad daylight by the Trump regime.

🚨HOLY CRAP. An ICE whistleblower just revealed a secret memo authorizing ICE officers to break into homes without a judicial warrant, which DHS's own legal training materials say is unconstitutional!
ICE then hid the memo from the public, passing it along by word of mouth and private conversation.
