Even if they release body cam footage, take off their masks, get more training, they are still responsible for detaining and deporting thousands of our family, friends & neighbors every day.

ICE doesn't need new rules. It needs to be dismantled entirely.

Even if Bovino gets fired, ICE has to go.
Even if Noem is out, ICE has to go.
Even when Trump leaves office, ICE has to go.

As protests grow and ICE's popularity drops, we may see concessions and leadership changes, like Bovino's departure. ICE still has to go.

Sen. Raphael Warnock (D-Ga.) is planning to fly to Minneapolis tomorrow. Ro Khanna flew in today.

We've been telling Dems to do this last week. You have to be in Minnesota. You have to be with the people. You have to stand next to Walz and Frey.

Coordinated effort, leadership, and pushback.

Chris Murphy: "This is really scary because what Bovino essentially told you is that if you just happen to be present when they are undertaking an operation, if you pull out your phone to record it, the use of force against you is justified. That is not true, it's not what the law says."

If there is a heaven, this beautiful soul has surely been welcomed at the gates. Thank you Alex Pretti for healing and caring for our Veterans. We were blessed that you lived among us- always giving. Always helping those who needed help. You were the best of us. 💔

Minnesota believes in law and order. We believe in peace. And we believe that Trump needs to pull his 3,000 untrained agents out of Minnesota before they kill another American in the street.

He was helping people until his last breath. That’s what healthcare providers do. It’s not just a job, it’s about caring for your fellow humans on the worst days of their lives.

and Alex was executed for it.
Alex Pretti’s last words were “are you ok?” said the woman next to him who ICE also pepper sprayed in the face.

Democrat leaders should be in Minnesota right now, standing side by side with Walz and Frey and the community.

They need to show solidarity and a united front.

They must say Abolish ICE.

They won't but they should. Trump is going to unleash hell on that state.

Everyday White men are being shown in real time that this regime’s talk about protecting their lives and livelihoods from the rest of us is just another lie. Everyday White men are being shown in real time that they actually need protection from this regime like the rest of us.

Both of Nevada's senators--Catherine Cortez Masto and Jacky Rosen--have officially come out against the DHS funding bill following the execution of Alex Pretti by ICE agents in Minneapolis this morning. This effectively ends the DHS funding bill in the Senate.

Why aren’t you in Minneapolis to actually take a stance? Why do you act so powerless?

Chuck, maybe you could call your Senator about it? The Senate switchboard can be reached at (202) 224-3121. If the Senior Senator from New York and Senate Minority Leader isn't in, leave a recorded message.

Alex Pretti, the man killed by federal agents today in Minneapolis, appears to have been a registered nurse, an athlete, a son and a brother, with ties to Colorado and Wisconsin.

Here is a photo he used for several accounts.

Alex from our time working together, while he was in nursing school. Later, he moved to ICU, working as a nurse to support critically ill Veterans. He had such a great attitude. We’d chat between patients about trying to get in a mountain bike ride together. Will never happen now

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.

Call Congress now! Tell them enough is enough or they’ll be murdering in your city next.
The videos don't lie. A man is dead, killed in cold blood. There is no conceivable justification for this intentional homicide. And make no mistake, that intentional, unjustified homicide was committed on behalf of Donald J. Trump.

I’ve made 5 calls to Congress so far. More to come. It’s easy and fast and can make a huge impact. If leaving a message is too much, email them!
Senate switchboard: (202) 224-3121. Call and leave a message. Then call again on Monday and talk to someone directly.
We are calling our senators right now and demanding that they vote no on the omnibus with DHS funding

ICE murdered this man for filming them and hurting their little boy feelings. Call or email Congress today, this shit has to stop.

3 meals @ $3-4 ea = $9-12/day

Leaving you with $3.64-6.64/day for your 1 government-approved snack.

Perfect logic, no notes.
Brooke Rollins is still at it!

"We had run almost 1,000 simulations, and between $3 and $4 is a fair number if you can have access to that food. I just saw new numbers that were run: a full day, meaning 3 full square meals and a snack, is about $15.64."
