Mayor Frey: “What's become clear to me is this is obviously not about safety. This is not even about immigration. This is about silencing a narrative or a political position that differs from that of a federal administration.”

"'Streets of Minneapolis' is mournful rather than strident. It doesn’t ask whether a war is just; it asks whether *we* are. When he sings of 'snow-filled streets' and names the dead, he anchors the song in lived loss, not ideology."

Trade policy as middle school cafeteria politics: You can shake kids for quarters… until they decide you don’t get a seat at their table. Then the “tough guy” is just eating alone with mystery meat.

This is complete bullshit, and it's a criminal administration's transparent effort to cover up a crime.

This statement from an eyewitness to the Minnesota murder of Mr. Pretti is gut wrenching, from beginning to end. Please disseminate it as you see fit.

Here is an example of correct usage of "brandishing."

The Trump Administration is brandishing lies.
Brandishing is a legal term that means to display all or part of a firearm, or otherwise make its presence known to another person to intimidate them, regardless of whether it's directly visible to that person. Given the video, that's not what Alex Pretti was doing when he was shot & killed.
Important context, this is the victim’s behavior BEFORE being tackled

He’s not threatening, he’s not brandishing, he’s filming

That tech oligarchs are noisy and incensed about the remote possibility of a wealth tax and utterly silent about the murder of a man who was only using the phone they invented to chronicle the thuggish government goon squads should tell you everything about these desiccated souls.

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.

It's a fascist power grab. And Congress has to put a stop to it.

The parents of Alex Pretti, an ICU nurse killed by federal agents in Minnesota, remember their son as a “kindhearted soul.” They also called the Trump administration’s response to his death “reprehensible.”

“The federal government is no longer bound by law. If agents of the state may kill people in public without being investigated; if they have—again, per VP Vance—“absolute immunity” from prosecution then we are living in an authoritarian regime.”

The Trump regime is smearing this man - Alex Pretti - as a “domestic terrorist.” We can’t let them get away with it.

Alex Pretti was a patriotic American - far more so than the ICE agent who murdered him on the streets of Minneapolis today. Far more so than Trump, Stephen Miller, or any of them.
A video of Alex Pretti reading out the final salute of an unnamed veteran he cared for until the end of his life in the ICU, posted to Facebook by his son.

This 37 year old man is dead after trying to help out a person who ICE pepper-sprayed; the Trump administration defends the killing and speculates, without investigation and no credible evidence, that the victim was intending to engage in mass murder of law enforcement?

Is that what you see?

Vance on Jan. 8: "You have a federal law enforcement official engaging in federal law enforcement action. That's a federal issue. That guy's protected by absolute immunity."

Vance today: "I didn't say that officers who engaged in wrongdoing would enjoy immunity. That's absurd."

I’m running for Congress in NY-12, my home.

We have a demented, criminal president running the country like a mob operation—government by the boss, for the boss.

We need Democratic fighters who will defend the rule of law and deliver government by the people. Join us.

The Sahm Rule is flashing red, and the unemployment rate is rising.

What does this mean?
- For sure the economy is in a MALAISE. (Close to no job growth since Liberation Day.)
- I reckon it's in a jobless SLUMP.
- It may be in or on the cusp of a RECESSION.
