The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

Today, out-of-control masked federal agents killed another American, Alex Pretti, a VA ICU nurse.
Trump needs to end this chaos and withdraw his ICE battalions from Minneapolis.
The Senate must vote down funding this slaughter of our people.

AOC: "Early reports are that he was an ICU nurse at the Mpls VA. So we are talking about Donald Trump accusing a VA ICU as being a terrorist against the United States. A man who was treating service members to our country ... his final act on early was helping a woman pushed to the ground."

Cold blooded murder in daylight. They don't care because they want us to see this. They want us to comply. So they can do worse come November.

FYI: Dems in the senate can't defund ICE. ICE is funded by the Big Ugly Bill. Shutting down DHS on this vote wouldn't touch ICE, but it would shut down FEMA, TSA, Coast Guard, etc. Shutting down ICE requires taking back Congress in the midterms. Dismantling DHS requires the White House in 2028.

No. ICE cannot go around destroying property, terrorizing citizens, because they don't like they way they look. Ramp up the pressure, ramp up the suits, defund and end ICE otherwise they will be rounding up a lot of people based on more than just skin color.
Homan: "Let's make it clear: ICE can detain a US citizen if they have probable cause that this person may have committed a crime. A short detainment and questioning, all you need is reasonable suspicion."
