The arrests of Don Lemon, Georgia Fort, and Jamael Lundy are unacceptable and a clear violation of the Constitution.
This is a dangerous abuse of power that threatens the rights of every single American.
They must be released immediately.

Pretti was legally carrying a gun, but had been disarmed and was restrained when he was shot repeatedly. Good was driving away from officers when she was shot in the face.
And the best they can do to concoct an absurd explanation that the officers were threatened. trib.al/egHubhb

Trump Has No Way Out in Minneapolis
The president has replaced Greg Bovino with Tom Homan on the ground in Minnesota, showing he’s desperate to change the narrative—but not his draconian policies.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Trump's ICE just killed 2 Americans in 2 weeks. Americans are demanding action.
How did Senate Republicans respond?
By threatening a partial govt shutdown if we don't give ICE another blank check.
They'd rather hold govt hostage than ensure accountability for these killings.

President Trump “is now basically running our country the way he ran his companies — as a one-man show free to make terrible deals. That management style led to six bankruptcy filings by his companies,” our columnist Thomas Friedman writes.

Donald Trump is the most un-American president in our history. And in his second term, there is no one to constrain his un-American impulses.

No, President Trump. Illegally canceling $2 billion in funding to deal with the mental health, addiction and opioid crises will not Make America Healthy Again.
It will lead to more illnesses, more overdoses and more deaths.
This blatantly unconstitutional act must be rescinded.
