I keep thinking about this fact that his last words were are you okay and hers were I'm not mad at you and it feels like a weird coincidence but it's just a reflection of the fact that the people who are coming out to take care of their neighbors are good and the people who are after them are bad
His dying words were asking about the safety of someone next to him

By Saturday afternoon, some Trump admin. personnel had already begun scouring the internet and other resources trying to find information on Alex Pretti, including social media posts, that could tie him to what Team Trump call “extremists,” two sources familiar with the matter tell @zeteo.com …

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

A DHS statement claimed “an individual approached US Border Patrol officers” with “a handgun” in the Alex Pretti shooting incident. A Bellingcat analysis of the footage appears to show that a gun was taken away from where Pretti was situated by an agent just before the first shot was fired.

I think a big part of the disconnect here is that a lot of Yanks are surprised that the rest of the world is just now realizing things are as batshit as they are.
like i feel like Yanks do not get how utterly batshit the moment we are currently in is
the issue here is that the EU is currently looking to see if anyone in the US opposition is actually capable of, you know, assisting them against being economically coerced, you know?

one of the best things about this whole nightmare has been watching a whole bunch of folks who have clearly never been seriously political in their lives standing up and going, no, absolutely the fuck not, we’re not letting this happen
ICE and MAGA really did bet the farm on all of Minneapolis’s white people going “oh yes, please take away our disgusting, evil non-white-foreigner neighbors, oh thank you so much.”
it’s beautiful that they’ve been proven incredibly wrong about that - may the rest of the country do the same.

Good morning. I read this dispatch from a comrade in Minneapolis this morning and thought that some of you might appreciate it too.

An initially-secret report for Customs and Border Patrol in 2013 found:
In many vehicle shooting cases, the “driver was attempting to flee from the agents who intentionally put themselves into the exit path of the vehicle, thereby … creating justification for the use of deadly force.”

Here's the ICE agent "defending himself" by shooting into the driver's side window of a car that's pulling *away* from him.

This whole thing is the narcissistic injuries of being beaten by Biden, and knowing millions of people now regret voting for him again, coupled with his loss of self control as he sunsets laid bare.
People, he's going to get worse. Expect more and more of this over time.
He will not get better.

when I was young, i used to wonder how people like this would fare in life, as they didn't seem suited for gainful employment. it turns out, the internet allowed them to accumulate a massive audience of similar idiots, enriching them and turning them into a presidential advisor

Everyone does know what's going on here, right? Should the Epstein evidence bill pass both the House and Senate, these criminals will say it can't be released because there is an active investigation. Never mind that a thorough investigation was completed, and the DOJ was prepared to try Epstein.

I think making the squishes walk the plank with no support from leadership would be a pretty caucus defining event. You're basically okaying primaries against anyone not retiring.
