Rep. Goldman asks Epstein survivors in the hearing room if they spoke with DOJ (none), how many offered to speak with DOJ (all), how many were denied or ignored by DOJ (all), and how many are still willing to speak to DOJ (all): “Ms. Bondi, it looks like you have some more witnesses”

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/

Trump is coming after all of us. All of us who oppose his tyranny and brutality. All of us who defy his dictatorship. All of us who seek accountability and challenge his murderous goons.
All across America we must rise up against this oppression, as peacefully but as definitively as we can.

He's directing traffic. He steps inbetween ICE and two women who are being harrassed by them (one of whom was shoved to the ground for no reason), raises his hands and turns away from them and says "Okay! Okay!" to indicate he isn't going to be aggressive, at which point they start with pepper spray
He was helping direct traffic when federal authorities approached him. Less than a minute later he was dead.

Renee Nicole Good was murdered. Marimar Martinez was shot. Mahmoud Khalil was arrested and jailed.
The next could be you.
What’s at stake isn’t just American democracy. It’s also your safety and security and that of your loved ones.
This is personal — to every one of us.

Naming a police officer is not doxxing. We aren’t supposed to have secret police in America.
