No longer on "X" and probably shouldn't be on here. I joined social media in 2016 with the idea that together, we will ensure good things continue to happen, in spite of Trump.

Gonna go ahead and say this was a) inevitable and b) widely predicted, but the subhuman shitstains involved in all this c) don't care.

So the homicide was premeditated. Planned in advance. Agents knew they wanted to kill him, so they prepared for the opportunity and took it.

Trump: The last time we had a press conference, some people said, 'He closed his eyes.' Look, it got pretty boring. It was a little bit on the boring side. But I didn't sleep. I just closed them because I wanted to get the hell out of here. I didn't sleep, by the way.

As Greg points out, the Times thinks they're doing a dunk on Pretti, when actually they're providing evidence of *motive.* The ICE agents should be charged with Murder 1.

Mayor Frey: What the federal government would have you believe is that they are exclusively going after criminals, the most violent of offenders. Yet we see a 5-year-old kid getting picked up, we see a pregnant woman getting dragged through the snow.

Even granting the most lurid speculation about the administration’s motives (reasonable), what is she doing there personally? Don’t these people have staff? It’s like Kissinger getting himself photographed skulking around corners at the Watergate.

After federal agents killed Alex Pretti, his colleagues at the Minneapolis VA wanted to memorialize him — but were initially told no, sources told The Post.
VA leaders later relented — but have scarcely acknowledged Pretti's death.

I keep thinking about these pictures and the bizarre decision to insert a DHS employee showing their back to the camera. Did they think that was an improvement on the mug shot?
Scrolling through the photos of Pam Bondi's "Minnesota rioters," it's just hero after hero. Every photo includes a cowardly DHS agent with their back to the camera.
Bondi thinks she's going to win the propaganda war with this shit, but it's never been more clear that they're losing.
