If you get mutual aid requests from someone named Toya, I got got by them a week or so ago and I think through me some of you may have too. I am really sorry if that's the case. Don't respond to her anymore.

The execution of Alex Pretti is playing so badly because you can look at his actions and life story - his last act was helping, boy scout, athlete, health care worker to veterans - and compare those to the men who killed him and know which you would want to be your son, brother, father, uncle.

Heads are going to roll and it's probably Noem's
Fox correspondent Bill Melugin’s stark acknowledgement that "videos appear to show [Pretti] never drew his holstered firearm" was whiplash-inducing for anyone who had been following Fox’s on-air coverage of the killing -- and it marked a major shift.
