There is 0.0% chance that we will be fooled by a bs compromise in the senate on DHS funding. Package it, put a bow on it, try to sell it however you want. Not gonna work. If you aren’t sure about that, spend more time in your states with constituents.

Needless to say that Renee Good and Alex Pretti will go down as heroes here in Minnesota and nationally, their names synonymous with sacrifice and caring for vulnerable neighbors even at the risk of your own life. And hopefully no more innocent lives are lost.

My friend Dara lives just a few blocks from where Alex Pretti was murdered, and was on the scene immediately. ICE and CBP attacked an upset, angry but nonviolent group of neighborhood people - including Dara - with tear gas, without warning. Read her harrowing story on Facebook or her newsletter.
The good news is that my longer version of this post has broken containment on Facebook, and is inching towards 100,000 reads. The bad news is that I just paid the Facebook toll of wasting a perfectly good hour of my life blocking trolls.

Alex Pretti was a great American.

The people defending his killers are not.

Primary ALL of them.

Supporting violent, masked state police is inexcusable, especially after all the videos have shown them to be domestic terrorists who constantly ride roughshod over both people and the Constitution.
NEW: The House just passed the DHS funding bill. Seven Democrats voted yes:

Henry Cuellar of Texas
Jared Golden of Maine
Laura Gillen of New York
Marie Gluesenkamp Perez of Washington State
Don Davis of North Carolina
Tom Souzzi of New York
Vincente Gonzalez of Texas

Newsom: "Greg Bovino - dressed up as if he literally went on eBay & purchased SS garb. Secret police, private army, masked men, people disappearing, no due process ... so is it surprising that the Trump administration didn't like my commentary and wanted to make sure I wasn't allowed to speak? No."

My Republican colleagues must take notice:

The U.S. cannot base foreign policy on whether or not a president gets a prize.

This is pathetic.

It is petty and dangerous narcissism — behavior we might expect from a spoiled child, not the leader of a democratic nation.

"There comes a point where we have to start questioning whether or not he’s actually aware of what’s happening around him & the harm he’s doing. It’s similar to historical figures like Nero or Caligula. Their madness took over & they started doing wildly destructive things. Trump is in that place."

New in PN: Democrats need to shut down Trump's terrorist government

"Democrats should reject any pretense of political normalcy while Trump’s goons wage an ongoing terror campaign against their own constituents. With government funding running out soon, the time to take a stand is now."
Democrats need to shut down Trump's terrorist government
Funding the war on their own constituents would be a grave betrayal.

On the ground here in Minnesota, it’s hard to reconcile the immense bonds of community that have been built in a week with the fact that we live in a country whose government appropriated billions of dollars to an unaccountable paramilitary force whose sole purpose is ethnic cleansing.

"If it wasn’t Shirley’s video, it would have been something else. If it wasn’t MN, it would have been somewhere else. If it wasn’t about daycare fraud, it would have been something else. Everything this administration does is about creating a fig leaf to justify its violent dismantling of democracy"
The blame for alleged fraud in Minnesota belongs to conservatives
Privatization and a lack of oversight creates a vicious cycle.
