This is why it’s so important to see all the video you can before making a judgement (looking at you DHS). Video appears to show the victim trying to protect another person & being pulled down by agents. There needs to be a credible investigation, not one by CBP/ICE www.reddit.com/r/minnesota/...

“The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.”
OMG. "DHS said the episode began after a man approached Border Patrol agents with a handgun and they tried to disarm him. But footage from the scene shows the man was holding a phone in his hand, not a gun, when federal agents took him to the ground and shot him." www.nytimes.com/live/2026/01...

ANOTHER ANGLE. This man was NOT brandishing a firearm. He was holding his phone. He then put his body between ICE thugs and woman. He was then sprayed with a chemical agent, tackled, disarmed, and executed. Plain as day. DO NOT let them tell you otherwise.

This man was worth a hundred Bovinos, a thousand Trumps.
Alex from our time working together, while he was in nursing school. Later, he moved to ICU, working as a nurse to support critically ill Veterans. He had such a great attitude. We’d chat between patients about trying to get in a mountain bike ride together. Will never happen now

What is, in fact, “evolving” is the spin ICE is going to put on this execution, which can’t be perfected until they know how much evidence is already publicly available.
Q: It doesn't seem like he pulled a weapon at any point. So does that account come from the agent? When does it come out?
BOVINO: This situation is evolving. Those facts will come to light. But let's take a look at the gun.

Trump went to Davos demanding Greenland and got nothing, he belittled NATO nations who lost soldiers in our war in Afghanistan and babbled like a demented lunatic. If this is what is considered great statesmanship by Stephen Miller, he can join Trump in a padded cell.

New Rule: Anti-Ice protestors don’t have 2nd Amendment rights (or really, any rights)
On the execution in Minnesota: Obviously, the individuals involved should be held accountable. But responsibility goes to the top of ICE and CBP, and DHS. Their appropriations come up next week in the senate. Not a cent for DHS without pulling ICE and CBP off the streets, in MN and everywhere else.

Disinformation does not aim to convince everyone of one false idea.
Its purpose is to flood the public space with confusion, contradiction, and emotional noise until clarity becomes difficult to maintain.

Modern democracies are rarely subverted by cancelling elections or falsifying results.
They are weakened long before voting day, by shaping what citizens see, hear, and emotionally absorb.

For years, American conservatives have preached about the 2nd Amendment, open carry, and federal authority, yet when a US citizen is shot by federal law enforcement, they rush to conclusions before any investigation has even begun. It has always been about hollow partisanship

Looking at the video footage so far I think its questionable whether he was armed at the moment he was killed.
Even presuming this is true, possessing a gun is completely legal if he had the appropriate permit. They're not even claiming he pulled it or brandished it, just that he had one. That's no reason to execute someone.
