After killing Alex Pretti, the Trump regime’s propaganda is collapsing. They’re watching as the American people turn against them. People across the aisle know they’re being gaslit and are fed up. Now, Leavitt is backing off some as they try to course correct. But the damage is done—they’re exposed.

It doesn't matter what the Constitution says. If the government can execute you on the street or in your own home on a whim, you have no rights. None.

Here's the thing, Greg — free speech is still protected by the First Amendment under the Constitution.
If you want folks to stop saying you're the secret police who are kidnapping and killing people, maybe stop acting like the secret police who are kidnapping and killing people.

Bovino: "When politicians, community leaders, & some journalists engage in that heated rhetoric we keep talking about, when they make the choice to vilify law enforcement calling law enforcement 'Gestapo' or using the term 'kidnapping,' that is a choice & there are actions & consequences."

Gallego: I think it's ridiculous that Kristi Noem just went out right away and basically called this poor victim, a violent terrorist. That right there is impeachable. She lied about a citizen to justify his murder. The president should ask for her resignation.

A pediatrician who attempted to save the life of Alex Pretti, who was shot and killed by Customs and Border Protection agents, has alleged that agents denied Pretti medical care for several minutes after the shooting took place, then appeared to count his wounds rather than administer CPR.

Peretti is a "model Republican":
1. He cared for veterans;
2. He defended vulnerable and assaulted women;
3. He legally owned a gun, but he didn't use it in combat;
4. He peacefully protested when someone was trampling on the freedoms of the state.
And MAGA disarmed and killed him.
