Dear ICE Agents,

You may feel like you have immunity, but that's Federal. When you murder someone, that is a state crime.

No federal pardon.
No statute of limitations.

Your time will come.

We're into the second day after the shooting of Alex Pretti, and neither of Pennsylvania's Senators has put out a public statement on it, or on funding/standards for ICE with a vote on funding due this week.

BIPARTISANSHIP!

All 10 shots were fired AFTER they removed the gun from Pretti’s waist. Every single shot was fired after he was disarmed.

This Federal employee stands with the Pretti family.

Feds shooting a Fed is unbelievable.

Fox News says agents who killed the ICU nurse in Minneapolis today, could "well have been protecting" themselves from his attack. The anchor said it was "obvious" from the video that he was "violently resisting." His guest added it was "imperative for them to take him down to keep themselves safe."

Maybe Bari Weiss gets the idea she's not the greatest thing that ever happened to CBS. Her appointment of anchor Tony Dokoupil to the nightly news has tanked the ratings, down 20% from the same period in 2025, inching downward by the day. They've lost as much as 1/5th of the key 25-54 demographic.

The loss of this great American is beyond HEARTBREAKING! There was no good reason for this to happen. NONE. Fight for humanity & ACCOUNTABILITY. Passionate peaceful protests matter. Don’t look away. This is intolerable!

You picked the wrong man to murder.
Alex Pretti 🇺🇸 VA ICU Nurse.
He cared for our Veterans. His legacy
will destroy you from the grave.
Alex died protecting a woman
you attacked in the street.
Veterans won’t forget.

Alex was an ICU nurse. Healing the most vulnerable patients. Assisting a woman being harassed by ICE - Of course he did. And he paid with his life.

Alex Pretti is a MARTYR.

His death cannot be in vain.

Say his name. Alex Pretti

They took his firearm and then kept asking where it was. Pinned him to ground and fucking executed. Full mag dump.

Then disappeared witness before any aid was rendered or requested.

Murder is the right word for it.

AOC: "How rich is it that she is saying showing up to the scene of a protest with a legally owned weapon should be grounds for a person's death, execution at the hands of the state, by the same party and administration that praises Kyle Rittenhouse."

Canceling Vanity fair. This is appalling! Really disgusting to elevate these corrupt fascist traitors!
So completely done with ANY COMPANY THAT CHOOSES ANY OF THESE PPL!
I get the Vanity Fair newsletter & they gave Kash Patel's girlfriend the glamour treatment in it! Barf! Laundering this regime's corruption. Making an "it girl" out of a crooked government official's trophy he flies around with government money.

Of course. Now his name is being spread more widely, to "Kavenaugh beatings", among other.
Nasra Ahmed, a 23-year-old US citizen, was arrested and detained by ICE. She was held for TWO DAYS.

ICE agents handcuffed her, called her a racial slur, and she was knocked to the ground so hard she got a concussion.

This cannot continue happening. ICE needs to leave.

This is elder abuse.
The Trump administration is ending Temporary Protected Status for roughly 350,000 Haitians. The aging care industry is expected to lose many workers as a result.
