The people who spent years defending and even lionizing Kyle Rittenhouse and Ashli Babbitt now want us to believe that an unarmed mother in her car and a disarmed nurse were domestic terrorists who deserved to be murdered by law enforcement.

Let’s be clear about what the Trump regime is saying to Minnesota: “We will continue murdering your citizens unless you help us rig your election.”
Pam Bondi's conditions for Minnesota: 1) give us all your state data on your food programs, including SNAP 2) repeal all your sanctuary policies in the state (since it has led to "so much crime and violence") and 3) hand over your state voting rolls. Letter here: www.fox9.com/news/minneap...

This is because of ICE. National Guard is back on the streets of Minneapolis because of ICE. That's it.
National Guard has fully arrived.

Engagement with opposition narrative - to assert gun possession is legal/call out hypocrisy - lends it airtime. Our focus is what occurred & horrific outcomes, person executed & what he stood for. Authoritarians pervert reality, to give their adherents story to spread & to bog us down in rebuttal.

“.. He cared about people deeply ..,” said Michael Pretti, Alex’s father. “He thought it was terrible, you know, kidnapping children, just grabbing people off the street. He cared about those people, and he knew it was wrong ..”

Minnesota defies logic to these ghouls because they assume Americans don’t care about each other to be this connected, caring, and organized.
Bondi: "It's extremely organized. The signs they have are all matching, they're well written. And look at what's happening today. How did these people go out & get gas masks? These protesters. Would you know how to walk out on the street and buy a gas mask? Think about that. We're not gonna have it"

Been in touch with US Senate staffers and this is the list needed to target for zero DHS funding. There is no courage for a shutdown so we need to make sure not a single cent goes to DHS:

Shaheen
Hassan
Fetterman
Cortez Masto
Rosen
Durbin
King
Murray
Gallego
Slotkin
Peters
Warner

50,000+ of us marched and protested peacefully with no violence.

We woke up to another execution.

The common denominator for violence is ICE.

ICE executed an ICU nurse who cared for veterans.
Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him.

White. Hot. Rage.

I hope that Democrats realize what’s happening in Minnesota is also a dry run for what the regime has planned for the midterms.

The newest video shows very clearly that they attacked him for coming to an aid of a woman that the agents pushed, and then executed him while he was immobilized. Everything the government has said, like with Good, has been a complete lie.

I see Alex Pretti directing traffic, try to help a woman who was pushed, he got pepper sprayed in the face* and then summarily executed by ICE. What the fuck (huge content warning, this is very graphic)
