MN DOC says there have only been 301 ICE detainees but ICE claims there were 1360. Also in this video 2 criminals were released directly to ICE but ICE pretended that they apprehended them off the street. 3000 DHS agents causing chaos in the street and got just 301 detainees youtu.be/3qXVrSs8x9o

Alex Pretti’s parents have retained Steve Schleicher, a former federal prosecutor who helped Minnesota convict Derek Chauvin in the George Floyd murder. Schleicher is taking the case pro bono. Renee Good’s family retained Romanucci & Blandin, the firm that represented Floyd’s family.

Free Liam Ramos and his father. Releasing this five-year-old and dad from custody and letting them return home is morally and legally imperative.

It's unconscionable to negotiate DHS funding until this happens, Noem and Miller resign and more.

ICE activity has not noticeably tapered off yet here and in fact this week they seem to be focused on terrorizing kids at bus stops and schools.
yes, there are no real signs of any big change in DHS activity here yet. In Chicago there really was after Bovino left and they basically ended "Midway Blitz" not so here so far.
I don’t know, declaring victory in MN seems premature. They’re still arresting people and brutalizing the community. The changes appear—so far—to be cosmetic

I'd love to know the work histories of these ICE agents. It's easy to speculate that this is the best paying job a lot of them have ever had. I wonder how many have troubled backgrounds including, say, felony convictions that make them undesirable to employers. I reckon that'd bring some loyalty.

Rand Paul: "There has to be an investigation. I don't know who trusts an investigation done by DHS when they're the ones calling this person an 'assassin,' a 'domestic terrorist,' saying he was assaulting police. How can they be in charge of an independent investigation? Something's got to happen."

This is, quite frankly, complete bullshit. I’ve received more criticism, harassment, and — at one point — calls for my death in the past six months of criticizing this administration than I did in an entire FBI career of investigations, operations, and arrests. And I never wore a goddamn mask.
Tillis says he opposes ICE being barred from wearing masks: "I've seen people dox me. I've seen people take pictures and identify law enforcement officers and then put their families at risk. So, I think that's a step too far."

Any “concessions” that Senate Democrats squeeze out of Republicans are pure theater. Trump and Stephen Miller will ignore them anyway — it’s all LIES.

Schumer and every Senate Democrat must STOP funding ICE and Border Patrol NOW. No more blank checks for brutality and murder.

Also everyone understands this implies Alex was well known to ICE and that it demands further investigation into whether or not his murder was targeted.

I dunno but I feel like targeted murder squads hunting civilians for personal vendettas are worse than incompetent accidental murder squads.
There’s a new video out there of Alex Pretti kicking an ICE vehicle 11 days before his death and then being attacked by ICE officers, per MSNOW.

Before the regime runs with this: kicking an ICE vehicle & spitting on it is NOT A JUSTIFICATION FOR MURDERING SOMEONE at point blank range in cold blood.
