ICE? Not just Trump’s fault and it has never actually worked beyond being a US ran criminal organization committing genocide and ethnic cleansing.
You can’t reform evil, you need to abolish that, initiate an inquiry and arrest everyone who participated since day one. #3E #goodvsevil

PBS and Fox News handled the story about the Border Patrol shooting of Alex Pretti quite differently. Fox News kept getting details wrong and implied Pretti threatened the agents. PBS spoke to a gun rights advocate from Minnesota.

NEW: Yesterday, the FBI raided Fulton County’s central election hub for 2020 election-related materials that could fuel Trump’s election conspiracy theories.
But lurking in the shadows was Tulsi Gabbard — a presence that suggests Trump could argue foreign interference caused his loss in Georgia.

The DOJ again failed to set a clear release date for the Epstein Files, stating in a court filing that the full release would come “in the near term.”
The delay marks over a month since the department missed its December deadline, which was outlined in newly-passed bipartisan legislation.

We know what heroes look like.
Alex Pretti was clearly a hero: saving lives, serving veterans, protecting community.
Secretary Doug Collins, who disrespected Pretti by flippantly saying that this is what we should expect when locals don’t cooperate with Trump’s gestapo, should resign in disgrace.
