We honor their lives by rejecting the evils of antisemitism, dehumanization, and authoritarian violence wherever they appear.

Thinking from a strategic angle: I suspect the murder of Alex Pretti and its stark clarity essentially collapses MAGA's 'margin for error' going forward with DHS.
The public will react more strongly and infer more negatively from what they see unless the public stops seeing Bad ICE videos entirely.

Any halfway sane administration (or regime) would want to move heaven and earth to make the bad videos out of Minneapolis stop - confirming a narrative (ICE out of control!) is more potent and easier than creating one.
But this is the Trump administration and they just aren't that competent.
