I'm glad the worst people on earth are on their back foot today but until the two murderers are arrested and prosecuted this is all fluff

Hey Minnesotans. Have your bosses sent you a mealy-mouthed email about how to remain productive during these troubled times or some other example of non-committal, faux-concerned corporate-speak? We want to publish a bunch of these. Send examples to keith at racketmn.com. You will NOT be identified.

Oh I dont think it will be sophisticated
strange to me that a lot of people on this website simultaneously agree that the administration is run by incompetents who struggle to carry out their agenda without major political blowback AND that they’ll pull off a complex and sophisticated effort to rig elections and prevent defeat in November

The Washington Post published a clear video of federal agents removing Alex Pretti's handgun moments before he was fatally shot. There's nothing in the video to suggest Pretti even reached for his weapon.

what legitimate law enforcement goals are the Trump administration and Minnesota supposed to cooperate on at this point, exactly
Barack and Michelle Obama weigh in: “The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.”

Imagine how much they’d be lying about what happened without all the videos showing it from multiple angles.

It had nothing to do with him having a gun. The presence of a gun merely provided a convienent lie for why they murdered him, which they did because they enjoy doing it. It's why they do this job. They like hurting people and they take any chance they can get

This was murder. Pretti did not initiate the confrontation. He didn’t strike them. He didn’t brandish his gun. They tackled him, beat him, disarmed him, and shot him.
Holy crap.
This is the most damning video yet.
It shows Border Patrol agents clearly taking Alex's firearm, running it away, and THEN executed him in cold blood by emptying a clip into his face.

I think it is time for there to be blowback and a scandal for any elected Democrat even saying this sort of thing. You should be shamed for pretending this is a thing. We do not need this gesture anymore. The Republicans are the Nazi Party and Donald Trump is their Fuhrer.
