Down the road? They're already saying it didn't happen. The murder of Renee Good, the murder of Alex Pretti. And, of course, the January 6 riot. And it's not just "some bastard"; it's the people controlling the executive branch of the US government and their GOP comrades in Congress.
“Get it all on record now — get the films — get the witnesses — because somewhere down the road of history some bastard will get up and say that this never happened.”

Pam Bondi just sent a letter to Minnesota officials saying ICE will leave if the state turns over its voter database to Trump.
Guess what? This has never been about safety or immigration. It’s a pretext for Trump to take over elections in swing states.

The deadly shooting in Minneapolis today was a straight-up execution of a protester by Trump's federal brownshirts.
The thugs wrestled him to the ground. They pistol-whipped him, then shot him multiple times. They murdered him.

Too obvious a point even to make, perhaps. But there was no “unrest” in Minneapolis before ICE and CBP showed up. ICE and CBP are the cause of the chaos…and the killings.

NOW the US tried to justify the killing in MInn by speculating that the victim was going to engage in a mass law enforcement attack- with no credible evidence of that or that the agents believed that at the time they killed him. This is a govt RUN AMOK with deadly consequences, here and abroad.

Every Democratic governor, attorney general, senator and House member needs to stand up and loudly say in unison: Enough. Trump's war on Americans must end.
I just spoke with the White House after another horrific shooting by federal agents this morning. Minnesota has had it. This is sickening.
The President must end this operation. Pull the thousands of violent, untrained officers out of Minnesota. Now.
