The Washington Post published a clear video of federal agents removing Alex Pretti's handgun moments before he was fatally shot. There's nothing in the video to suggest Pretti even reached for his weapon.

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

We just published an especially relevant warning from Craig McLean, the acting chief scientist and head of NOAA Research during "Sharpiegate."
He defended scientific integrity—and was removed as chief scientist.
Scientists can't be silent now either, he says. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

I paid the price for speaking out about “Sharpiegate.” Scientists can’t be silent now, either.
