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.

New Second Amendment doctrine just dropped.
Trump: "With that being said, you can't have guns. You can't walk in with guns. You just can't. You can't walk in with guns. You can't do that. But it's just a very unfortunate incident."

The shamelessness is the point. We know she's lying. She knows she's lying. If she were trying to convince the public, that would be admitting that public opinion matters.
This is a performance of dominance.
This is "truth is what we say it is."
This is "you'll believe what we tell you."

Noem lies shamelessly: "An individual approached order Patrol officers with a 9mm semi-automatic gun. The officers attempted to disarm this individual, but the armed suspect reacted violently. This looks like a situation where an individual arrived to inflict maximum damage and kill law enforcement"

He was filming. He went over to help a lady that ICE shoved down. Agents engaged him.
His hands were on the pavement when he was shot.
He never had his hand on a weapon.

So the “everyone should be armed” second amendment crowd is using the fact the a man was armed (maybe) as justification?

The government is saying that violence rules. That snatching foreign leaders and territories, and shooting US citizens in their cars at point blank range, is justified. That resistance is not only futile, it is dangerous. They can say these things. But they cannot force us to believe them.

SAVE all videos & photos from today. They will be valuable to prove the ICE agent --- who had time to move & re-position himself to the side of the victim's car to shoot into the driver's side window --- was not in reasonable fear of imminent serious physical injury or death.
