They can’t fathom that people have come together because they care about their community, their neighbors, and their nation.
Not because they’re getting paid.
A total lapse in humanity and imagination.
What a sad & blatant lie.

Let's also bring in the connection with tech giants: Google hosted a CBP app that used facial recognition to identify immigrants, while simultaneously removing apps that report the location of ICE officials because Google sees ICE as a vulnerable group.

Murphy on Bovino: "That was a bone-chilling interview. I was shaking while I was listening to it, in large part bc it takes just an unbelievable amount of gall to lie to the American public. Everybody saw that video ... it should freak the public out that the Trump administration lies this easily"

When the Vice President tells law enforcement they’re above the law, people die. A U.S. citizen was killed in cold blood and the message from the White House is clear: zero consequences. This won’t stop without accountability.

Remember, in his first term Trump asked military leaders of protesters:
“can’t you just shoot them.”
Back then his officials refused. So he found ones who wouldn’t.
This is what he’s always wanted. It’s not an accident. It was his vision. www.npr.org/2022/05/09/1...

This is absurd to put all of those CBP agents involved in the murder of Alex Pretti back onto the streets already.
They pose a very real, proven danger to the community.

Trump administration goes after Second Amendment rights in justifying Minneapolis shooting
A number of pro-gun rights Republicans pushed back on the administration's argument that Alex Pretti was dangerous because he had a gun. Pretti was legally licensed to carry one.

The Key to Minneapolis’s Successful ICE Resistance
The city’s rapid mobilization against ICE was aided greatly by a community with well-worn connections and a tradition of mutual aid. You can—and should—start building this resilience where you live.

Minneapolis is going to win. Can’t you feel it?
They have no support, even the most timid equivocators are quietly shuffling out the back door. All they have is guns. They can hurt us and they can threaten us but there is no road to victory for them.
It’s a quagmire and they’re suffocating in it
