Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him.

White. Hot. Rage.

Sen. Smith: Federal agents shot and killed Alex Pretti, a US citizen, a Minneapolis resident, and a VA nurse. Eyewitness video shows reckless, violent, and dangerous agents taking the life of a Minnesotan. Rather than following standard law enforcement practice, they have killed another person

Q: They defied a search warrant this morning. Do you think they'll abide by a federal court order?

FREY: Everybody listen to that question. The question is 'will this administration abide by a court order.' These are the underpinnings of our democracy and Constitution. The answer better be yes.

Minneapolis protester as he's being brutalized by feds: "You're gonna have to kill me! You're gonna have to kill me! I've done nothing wrong! My name is Matthew James! I'm a US citizen! You're gonna kill me! Is that what you want?" (You can hear his wife screaming)

The leaders of Albania & Azerbaijan were filmed mocking US Trump for claiming he ended a war between the 2 countries, even though they have never fought each other.

The world thinks that the occupant is a joke.
He’s destroying our country. Congress must act.

Repeat after me - the institutions of this economy depend on the institutions of this democracy, among which is the rule of law
Jack Smith: "My fear is that we have seen the rule of law function in our country for so long that many of us have come to take it for granted. The rule of law is not self-executing. It depends on our collective commitment to apply it."

MN Pediatrician: We are seeing ICE in our hospitals and around our clinics. Patients and their families are afraid to come in. They're worried that if they enter a hospital setting or a clinic setting for much-needed medical care, they may be detained. This extends to folks with legal status as well

I can only hope that when Trump is no longer in office and the day of reckoning has come, that SCOTUS won't consider immunity for this criminal conduct committed while in office.

The Fourth Amendment to the US Constitution states,

“The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation..."

Whistleblowers just shared a memo showing DHS instructing ICE to force their way into peoples' houses without a proper warrant. Why is this not on all the networks right now? This is a criminal conspiracy to violate rights under color of law.

COLLINS: Did it stand out to you that he said Iceland multiple times when he was talking about Greenland?

NEWSOM: And that every time a windmill turns it costs $1,000. A lot of stuff stands out. None of this is normal. There's a deviancy of consciousness. He's graded off the curve.

I just spent the morning at the immigration court in San Antonio. What I saw was insane. The blatant, systemic violation of the law. I’m going live on @instagram at @senchrismurphy in a few minutes to tell you about what I saw.

“Donald Trump is a pathological liar, a bully and an offensive boor. He proved it once again in Davos today. In the process, he strongly made the case for why Europe and the world can no longer count on America as a credible or reliable partner.”

We need to invite the Black Panthers to come to our communities and teach us how to use guns and methods of protesting. They have been doing it for years and have the experience. This is the first time in my life that I am thinking about getting a gun now that it is obvious the Govt is the enemy.

He goes on to describe one of his officers being stopped when she was off-duty solely because she's non-white, harassed by ICE goons who slapped her phone out of her hand as she tried to record, only to be let go when she finally revealed she was a cop.
Brooklyn Park police chief Mark Bruley: "We're hearing people being stopped with no cause & being demanded to show paperwork to determine if they're here legally. We started hearing from our police officers the same complaints. Every one of these individuals is a person of color... it has to stop"

We need US troops with the guts to disobey unlawful orders. Attacking US citizens expressing their 1st Amendment rights is not a legitimate reason to use military force upon the public. Nor is attacking a US NATO ally unprovoked. If you're military and don't agree, then you're a pussy.

Donald Trump has called the past year a win for his administration.

It’s been failure after failure from taking away SNAP benefits, shutting down child care, or making goods more expensive with tariffs.

365 isn’t even close to the number of failures he’s had.

We all have a right to be angry at GOP voters -- that almost goes without saying. But I still maintain a special reserve of vitriol for people who can't be bothered to vote at all. They, by themselves, could have prevented this. They, by themselves, can stop this whenever they want to.
