Authoritarian regimes ALWAYS lie
That is why it is so important and necessary to record and document everything.

Don't watch the video unless you want to feel sick. But be very very angry because they executed a man who was just directing traffic.

Performative public lying is a hallmark of far right authoritarian parties

Minutes after claiming the victim wanted to "massacre" law enforcement, Bovino is asked to specify when exactly the individual allegedly pulled his gun on ICE agents
Bovino then ducks the question and says the incident is "under investigation"

Republicans could end this it any time and I think every single Republican member of Congress should be asked daily why they continue to allow this. They are cowards who want to destroy our country and should have to carry that shame.
Reminder: All it would take to end the murder of American citizens by an untrained government goon squad is 16 Republicans in Congress voting with Dems to defund ICE (or 23 to impeach and remove Trump — 3 in House & 20 in Senate). That’s it. 23 Americans can vote for the public and end all of this.

Let’s be clear: anyone defending the Trump Administration after watching masked, anonymous agents assault a man, pepper spray him, then fire 5+ rounds into his back is irretrievably complicit in political terrorism.

I hope that Democrats realize what’s happening in Minnesota is also a dry run for what the regime has planned for the midterms.

If the government executing us in the streets isn’t your red line, then you’ve already decided to endorse it.

1) Doesn’t say he was wielding it, just that he had it.
2) Doesn’t match the video anyway.
3) DHS has lied in exactly this way after shooting someone before.

All of this is fucking senseless. Minnesota did not have an immigration problem. Trump sent his Nazi thugs here because he's racist against Somali people and to own libs like Tim Walz. Now two Minnesotans are dead and Minneapolis is on the verge of going up in flames. None. Of. This. Was. Necessary.

BlueSky won’t let me share the video, but you can see one of the ICE agents rip a gun out of this man’s waistband *before* the shooting starts.
From this angle, it’s hard to see how this was anything but an execution, unless simply carrying a gun is now illegal in America.

Already, narrative is that the murder victim was brandishing a gun. Sure looks like a cell phone to me.

By who? Who shot the person dead? You saw the video. We all know a federal agent shot a man dead who was prone on the ground. Also, it's not "according to officials." It's according to verified video seen with your eyes. Not saying what anyone can obviously see with their eyes is a form of lying.

So the “everyone should be armed” second amendment crowd is using the fact the a man was armed (maybe) as justification?

At the end of the day, the Black Lives Matter era was about whether people should be killed in the street, and lots of people decided yeah and put those little blue flags on their cars. It spread to everyone because it stopped for no one.

ICE agents are America's failures, basically indistinguishable from lazy school shooters, losers who want to play Call of Duty on our streets against people who can't fight back. They have unlimited ammo and toss tear gas like they're pressing L1. They have to be defunded and jailed. All of them.

Whether by design or not, Trump’s post follows a recognizable authoritarian sequence—deny shared truth, delegitimize institutions, frame crisis, assign blame, demand extraordinary power, attack critics as insane, rewrite the record, and imply punishment for dissent.
It reads crazy. It isn’t.

No amount of facts will change the mind of a Trump supporter. It's a cult. Always remember that and treat it as such. The only way to overcome a cult is to cut off it's head.
