Thinking Russia will easily overrun Ukraine's "they/them" army because a Russian soldier did shirtless pushups in a recruitment ad is basically the same as thinking ICE would easily dominate the "weak, woke libs" of Minnesota because MAGA posts about masculinity and hype videos with hard rock.

Trump is such a transparent asshole but there’s something so evil about how JD Vance hides incredibly callous politics behind that nauseating “well now good sir” faux civility.

We remember Minnesota’s Alex Pretti, Renee Good, and the other lives lost at the hands of the Trump admin’s brutality and cruelty. We look to our collective courage to remain clear eyed about the authoritarian threat and what we can do for each other. Threaded below are resources to meet the moment.

WOW on Pretti's denial of medical treatment

"I informed the ICE agents that I am a physician, and I asked to
assess the victim.

At first, the ICE agents wouldn't let me through. ... But none of the ICE agents who were near the victim were performing CPR, ... None of the agents were helping him."

Kare 11 local news just read, in full, this statement from Michael and Susan Pretti, the parents of Alex Pretti.

"Please get the truth out about our son."

Alexi Pretti was a loved and respected nurse helping critically ill veterans.
He was beaten and murdered on the streets of Minneapolis by paramilitaries in the employ of Donald Trump.
This is not a nation that can be trusted at any level.

Yesterday, Minneapolis conducted a general strike against ICE.

Today, ICE responds by murdering someone in cold blood in the street.

The protests are working.
The regime will eventually fall.
Justice will prevail.
But shit is fucked up right now and will likely get worse.

Nehls: I would like to quickly address the police officers from January 6th. And I can tell you that the fault does not lie with Donald Trump. It lies with the US capitol leadership team.

This DHS memorandum says that the DHS General Counsel's office has adopted a new position that the Fourth Amendment allows entry into the home to make an arrest just based on an administrative warrant.

I would like to see that argument.

Mamdani: "I am in support of abolishing ICE. What we see is an entity that has no interest in fulfilling its stated reason to exist. We're seeing a government agency that is supposed to be enforcing some kind of immigration law, but instead what it's doing is terrorizing people."
