Yesterday, Reuters captured ICE breaking down a door and dragging a man out half-naked into the freezing cold in Saint Paul.
According to his sister-in-law, they returned him after realizing he’s a naturalized U.S. citizen with no criminal record.

One of the things about people showing up to protest for the first time, that many, many armchair theorists don't grasp, is the effect of seeing what happens with your own eyes, then seeing how media covers it, and what is said ABOUT YOU by media and political personalities/office holders.

Hard to find a bigger treat to freedom of the press than the President openly reminding a powerful journalist, on TV, that the journalist only has his job because of the President, and everyone being so lazily used to this sort of thing they don't even bother to edit it out for propriety's sake.

You lying piece of shit. I chaired the Minnesota DFL for all three of your runs here. I watched you lose. Three times. Minnesota never bought your con. And now, as Chair of the DNC, I’m looking forward to ending Trumpism for good in 2028 — not with lies, but with votes. Again.
Trump: "I feel I won Minnesota. I think I won it all three times. Nobody has won it since Richard Nixon won it many many years ago. I won it all three times in my opinion. It's a corrupt state ... I did so well in that state. The people were crying every time after."

This is incredible. It's the opposite of exculpatory. It's now even clearer that the killing was not at all justified, he was in no sense whatsoever in any serious danger, and indeed it looks very much like the shooting was retribution and nothing more.
🚨 NEW VIDEO 👇🏽This puts an end to all the lies. Horrific.
They were having a calm exchange seconds before he murdered Renee Good, and she was barely moving and clearly avoiding him.
Stop the lies.

they didn’t leak it to make the shooter look innocent, but to make the victim look guilty. not guilty of a crime. guilty of having a visibly queer wife. guilty of liberalism. guilty of opposing the regime. they don’t seek to exonerate themselves, only to demonstrate who deserves to die.
In the video that the shooter took, which I believe was leaked to be exculpatory, he appears to yell “fucking bitch” after he shoots Renee Good.

This man is an embarrassment to our nation
Trump claims the ICE agent who shot a woman today in Minneapolis “is now recovering in the hospital.”
However, the agent was able to walk up the crashed vehicle and walk back to his own vehicle before driving away. He didn’t appear injured.
