UPDATE: Minnesota Department of Corrections puts out a statement refuting Bovino’s lies about the man they say they were arresting before they killed Alex Pretti.

This witness to Alex Pretti's murder not only refutes the governmen't story, but says she is afraid to go home because federal agents might arrest her. This is what it feels like to live under state terror.

We aren't even asking why ICE is even at these protests full of white ICU nurses and moms in vans. Like, why are they there? Looking for a Mexican drug gang in a suburban roundabout? Finding the secret foreign terror hiding in the trunk of a minivan?

If Democrats in Congress want to fight Trump regime’s fascism, these four steps are a start.
1. Vote no on DHS funding bill.
2. Repeal the multi-year $75 billion funding for ICE.
3. End qualified immunity for ICE agents.
4. Investigate and prosecute every single ICE agent who broke the law.

This is the US citizen ICE executed today in Minnesota.
Alex Pretti, ICU nurse and mountain climber.
They fired 12 times. 1, and then 3, and then the rest.
Shot him right in the back after he was beaten, pinned to the ground, and pistol-whipped.
Trump sanctioned execution.
