Now that it is known that at least one of the allegations in Trump's revenge indictment against @donlemonofficial.bsky.social is, as is usually the case with everything coming out of Trump's mouth, a lie, will the Minnesota district court judge accept the other allegations as true?

CBP thugs have a long history of using excessive and deadly force against migrants without any consequences. So, no surprise that Ochoa & Gutierrez were so quick to execute Alex Pretti on his knees by shots in his back.

You think these two ever used excessive force at the border? Time to charge Alex Pretti's killers. @hennepinatty.bsky.social

Did @donlemonofficial.bsky.social have the specific intent required by 242(a)(2)? And how about the "physical obstruction" element?

Point 14: @hennepinatty.bsky.social doesn't need to know the names of the two agents who killed Pretti or their locations in order to file a criminal complaint against them because they can both be identified with "reasonable certainty" from the videos.

Victim Pretti's prior acts of violence would be inadmissible at a homicide trial (in state or federal court) of the two agents who killed him if they were unaware of the prior incident at the time they killed Pretti.

Stasi or Nazi. In the sick, twisted, minds (or what's left of their brains) of Trump, Miller, Noem, Bovino and their loyal masked thugs, this is a war of us vs. them. And, in war, in their playbook, anything goes ... anything.

I don't believe any "training" would make a difference. These dudes are thugs, pure and simple. They enjoy inflicting pain on "others" who they view as the "enemy" worthy of death. In their twisted minds they are at war with anyone who dares to get in their way. And, in war, everything goes.

1. Ross deliberately, unreasonably, and recklessly created the danger to himself that led to his killing Renee Good. Having done so, the killing was objectively unreasonable and cannot be justified as self-defense.
