BREAKING: With no explanations. TikTok has throttled or frozen individual videos criticizing ICE and simply disabled entire accounts whether the video pertains to ICE or not - and not even offered spurious explanations or notices #TikTokCensorship

New in PN: The regime's mind-bending lies are a tactic

"The VP told them they could kill anyone who annoyed them. Pretti annoyed them. So they killed him. Now the lies Bovino and Noem are telling about Pretti’s death are intended to encourage further extrajudicial executions and likely will do so."
The regime's mind-bending lies are a tactic
Thinking about them in terms of truth or falsity is a category error.

Across a wide range of topics, TikTok appears to be suppressing and censoring content. Haven't had time to study it yet, but I've seen enough examples to know something is going on.

Freedom is criticizing powerful people. Everything else flows from that.

HORRIFIC: the Trump admin is reportedly planning to dump hundreds of parents and children arrested in the interior (including Minneapolis) into extraordinarily dangerous Mexican border towns, and make them run a gauntlet of kidnappers if they want kangaroo court hearings.
Scoop: Trump admin plans to remove ~400 individuals, including children and families, to Mexico in first known restart of controversial “Remain in Mexico” policy during Trump’s 2nd term, sources tell me and Jake Traylor @ms.now

They’re set to be removed as early as Tuesday from TX and AZ to Mexico

I am NOT a gun owner. I believe the United States would be much safer if we banned firearms completely

But Alex Pretti was within his rights-as a licensed gun owner-to carry this weapon

He doesn’t appear to have broken ANY law

Kash Patel is lying or incompetent. Either way, he must be removed
Kash Patel: "You cannot bring a firearm, loaded, with multiple magazines to any sort of protest that you want. It's that simple. You don't have a right to break the law." (Pretti was carrying a gun legally.)

If they aren’t being killed by ICE, Americans are being decimated by the Trump economy

“Forty hours a week makes me $2000 a month and my rent is $1,660. So I work 40 hours a week so I can have a two-bedroom apartment and an extra $300 a month. Like, that doesn’t even cover my phone, internet, food”

WSJ: “A preliminary analysis of the video’s audio suggests a total of 10 shots were fired from a single semiautomatic firearm.”

Suggests among the 8 officials, only one fired all the shots.

I knew MN DOC had debunking Greg Bovino's false claims abt the target of the snatch CBP was doing when they murdered Alex Pretti. I didn't realize they created an entire website to debunking DHS lies.

Minnesota: Ryan Goodman and I explain, link below, how the Trump Admin is lying about the Pretti killing, and what legally is being done to both try to prevent ICE from continuing its tactics and to advance a state investigation into the Good and Pretti murders.

Alex Pretti was an American hero. He saved lives. He protected people. He cared deeply about his community, unlike the murderous thugs who killed him.

The very last thing he did was try to help a woman who had been pepper-sprayed and violently shoved to the ground by ICE. 1/

A clearcut homicide with malice aforethought and again blocking physicians who attempted to come to the victim's aid.

Read the excerpts.

This is how bad it’s gotten.

And thank God for the judges that are still defending the rule of law.
Since July, I've tracked at least 2,300 cases in which federal judges have ruled ICE has illegally detained people without bond or due process.

This is one that stands out:

So...
- ICE was staying in a hotel
- The hotel management worried they might go after an employee
- They informed ICE of the legal status, which permitted the employee to live and work in the US
- ICE promises they'll leave him alone
- Then they arrest the guy anyway
JUST IN: ICE agents in Minnesota arrested an employee at the St. Louis Park Homewood Suites — where they were staying to help carry out Operation Metro Surge.

A federal judge just ordered the man's release.

Another angle. Guy in gray approaches from right of screen with nothing in hands, searches the victim on the ground, comes away with gun.

Gray searches the victim's waist, up the back, and then, presumably, a holster, comes away w gun, then shot fired.

Here’s one video shared with us of the state-ordered execution. The man was beaten in the head with a gun, shot once, then shot five more times while on the ground. State-ordered executions continue.

They tried to cover it up immediately and the Minneapolis police chief refused. Witnesses have been taken to police headquarters and all available off duty police have been called to work. ICE cannot be trusted to tell the truth. Congress must act now. The Courts must stop the foot dragging.

Lehigh County in Pennsylvania is tired of ICE not paying the rent on their local field office, so they’ve officially evicted them! So, where’s all that taxpayers’ money going? DHS owes roughly $ 100K back rent!
