Every summer, as a child, my brothers, my dad, and my step-mom would go on long family road trips. And I loved stopping in convenience stores or drug stores to find a book with an interesting cover or blurb, and i'd grab it and read it on that long trip.

This is so shocking & amazing. It's a tremendous indicator that Americans are not happy with how MAGA is destroying our country.
It's been 35 years-longer than some of y'all have been alive-since a Democrat won here, and Trump won here by 17 points in 2024.

They shot Renee Good in the face.
They kidnapped Liam Ramos.
They just executed a man on the street.
Unmask them. Prosecute them. No more secret police.

in the seconds before he was murdered by ICE, Alex Pretti was PROTECTING two women ICE was assaulting. He was pepper sprayed, taken the the ground, beaten, and then executed.
It is beyond time to take seriously that they view us as cannon fodder, and nothing more.

Mayor Jacob Frey & Chief Brian O’Hara—press briefing on the 37 yr old Minneapolis man shot & killed by ICE this morning.
Mayor Frey—I just saw a video of more than six masked agents pummeling one of our constituents & shooting him to death.
How many more residents or Americans need to die?

fucking scary.
Fox News: "I've gotten my hands that AG Bondi said she sent to Gov. Tim Walz. It is strongly worded. The AG calls for the governor to support the men and women of ICE, to repeal the state's sanctuary policies, and to allow the DOJ to access state voter rolls."

Yesterday, Minnesotans showed up in subzero temperatures in a powerful, nonviolent, and massive protest against ICE and CBP’s violent occupation of the city. Immigration officers responded today by murdering another citizen.

In a totally unexpected development the dhs explanation of why ice murdered this guy doesn’t appear to hold up to the most basic video analysis
Federal law enforcement agents shot and killed a man in Minneapolis on Jan. 24 according to local police officials. DHS told Fox News that the man was “armed with a gun”. A video of the shooting appears to show that a gun was taken from the man before the first shot was fired. x.com/BillMelugin_...

Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him.

if this isn't murder, there is no such thing as murder.
There is no defending this. This is cold-blooded murder.
NEW VIDEO: this appears to be the footage from the woman in the pink coat.

Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.

Of all of the videos we have seen of ICE murdering Renee Nicole Good, this one is the most important the one EVERY American should see.
It is also the hardest to watch. I warn you, this one is rough.
