About a week before federal agents shot him to death, Pretti “stopped his car after observing ICE agents chasing what he described as a family on foot, and began shouting and blowing his whistle.”

ICE tackled him to the ground and broke his rib.

“That day, he thought he was going to die.”

Federal immigration officials have been collecting information on protesters and agitators, sources told CNN.

Disappointing to see people on here talking about their ideal ICE/CBP reforms.

It is a terrorism organization that is conducting terror campaigns.

Abolish.

At minimum.

That's it.

Rep. Veronica Escobar on a homicide in a Texas immigrant detention facility: "I've learned nothing else from DHS, and I think what's also very telling is DHS tried to deport the witnesses to this homicide"

In response to Trump’s trade war, the rest of the world makes free trade agreements while Trump fires off new manic tariffs weekly every time another leader says something he doesn’t like.

TAPPER: They're asking for voter roll information after the death of Alex Pretti. What was it like to see that letter?

SIMON: It was really deeply disturbing. Literally hours after the second killing of a citizen in Minneapolis by ICE agents, there's this ransom note

Exactly right.

Bovino's leaving? Great, get Noem to resign.

Noem resigns? Great, defund and dismantle ICE.

Go after Stephen Miller too. Bring charges against ICE thugs at the state and local level. Lawsuits. New state laws restricting them.

Every possible angle.
They are wounded and flailing. Press the advantage.

So, these armed felons from January 6, 2021 are “just tourists!”

But an ICU nurse defending a woman who ICE pepper-sprayed and pushed to the ground was a “domestic terrorist “!

Bovino is the scapegoat for Trump's deliberate and intentional reign of terror in Minnesota, but as long as Stephen Miller is in the White House, this is just window dressing. Dems must go on offense!

Just because Trump pulled one Head Goon out of MN and is sending in The Guy Who Accepted $50k Bribe in the Goon's place, you cannot buckle on your votes!

Trump would LOVE to placate you now for your votes!!

It doesn't matter what the Constitution says. If the government can execute you on the street or in your own home on a whim, you have no rights. None.

It is profoundly sad that a white man's concealed carry guns rights is what is getting certain people to finally understand that the US government does not give a shit about laws or rights or lives. This is not a criticism of the victim. This is a criticism of the US's sympathies & priorities.

This isn't about "training issues." The murderer who executed Renee Good has been with ICE for 10 years, and according to DHS, the murderer who executed Alex Pretti has been there for 8 years.

These aren't "new recruits," or officers that can be "retrained." ICE can't be reformed. Abolish ICE.

FU Bovino! You dress like a Nazi, operate likethe Gestapo, kidnapped people off the streets... and then threatened us that there are consequences of calling ICE what they are... consequences like what happened to Alex Pretti and Renee Good.
It's f*cking fascism.

The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.”

That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

Here's the thing, Greg — free speech is still protected by the First Amendment under the Constitution.

If you want folks to stop saying you're the secret police who are kidnapping and killing people, maybe stop acting like the secret police who are kidnapping and killing people.
Bovino: "When politicians, community leaders, & some journalists engage in that heated rhetoric we keep talking about, when they make the choice to vilify law enforcement calling law enforcement 'Gestapo' or using the term 'kidnapping,' that is a choice & there are actions & consequences."

There also has to be a group of the population unhappy with something, to whom a simple answer and quick fix is attractive. They may not be unintelligent, but they, too, are lazy, and don't want to do things carefully.
They also have little empathy or vision.
