50,000 Minnesotans turned out to peacefully protest ICE’s actions in 10 below weather and there were no problems.
The next day a whole team of federal agents couldn’t handle one citizen with a cell phone. They shot him.

NATO soldiers didn’t “die doing nothing.” They died honoring alliances, defending democracy, and backing the U.S.!
In actual fact they died doing what bone spurs Trump never would!

We just watched on Ali Velshi the video of the shooting of Alex Petti broken down, frame by frame The ONLY thing he had in his hand was a phone
It clearly shows that an officer removed the gun he had long before another officer shot him numerous times taking his life
