Schumer, Jeffries and much of the current Democratic Party is not built for this fight or made for this moment.

They've had 10 years. Just look at their actions. Trust your own eyes.

We have to cull the party and replace the Vichy Dems with actual fighters and reformers.

It's the only way.
Majority of the country now wants to abolish and/or dismantle ICE and yet Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y. told the caucus the message had to be to “restrain, reform and restrict ICE.”

Once again it looks like Schumer is about to choke after getting a massive opportunity.

So pathetic and weak.
Senate Democrats plot strategy as DHS standoff deepens heading into shutdown week
Two sources who were on a Democratic caucus strategy call Sunday said Minority Leader Chuck Schumer told the group the message must be to “restrain, reform and restrict ICE.”

He had a permit to carry
He was legally exercising his 2nd Amendment right.
He did not draw the weapon.
He was filming when they approached him.
They had taken his weapon from its holster before they shot him.
It was murder‼️

If Alex’s parents haven’t given up, if those people in Minneapolis haven’t given up, then how can anybody else?

This is absurd to put all of those CBP agents involved in the murder of Alex Pretti back onto the streets already.

They pose a very real, proven danger to the community.
CBP chief Bovino has confirmed that the officers who executed Alex Pretti in the street yesterday are not only *not on administrative leave,* they have all been reassigned to other jurisdictions and are all on the street today.

This is totally unheard of for any officer-involved shooting

Hours after federal immigration officers shot and killed a man in Minneapolis, Pam Bondi seized upon the incident to demand access to Minnesota’s voter rolls, directly tying the Trump administration’s quest for voters’ unredacted personal data to its aggressive immigration raids across the state.

The man murdered by ICE in Minneapolis, Minnesota while he bravely shielded women from being brutally attacked by Trump regime thugs has been identified as Alex Pretti.

He was a US citizen, a registered nurse, an athlete, a son, a brother, and a hero. The regime murdered him. #3E #GoodVsEvil

What the Trump Admin is telling you.

-Don't record ICE
-Don't carry a gun around ICE
-Don't ask ICE for a warrant.

So that takes out the 1st, 2nd, and 4th Amendments.

The official lie is that he came over to interfere with their operations, when you can plainly see several of them get out of their cars, cross the street and confront him there.
Video before it happens is showing this guy they shot in the head in Minneapolis was just standing there videoing them before and they got out to push him back and then murder him.

Alex was disarmed, pinned, and then executed.
Holy crap.

This is the most damning video yet.

It shows Border Patrol agents clearly taking Alex's firearm, running it away, and THEN executed him in cold blood by emptying a clip into his face.

Murder.

🧵thread of right-wing reactions to the ICE murder this AM:
We are dealing with a Western Christian supremacist movement willing to see millions die in the name of racial purity. This is William Wolfe. A year ago he was invited with fourteen other faith leaders to the WH. Today he is praising ICE for killing peaceful observers. This is Christian fascism.

I know I will lose many subscribers, viewers, and followers for my critiques of weak Democrats and the Democratic Establishment, and I'm fine with it.

I refuse to support Vichy Democrats and cowards who refuse to fight for us.

They must be primaried, shamed, and removed.

We need fighters.

ICE has now carried out two summary executions of innocent people in the streets of an American city.

If you work for ICE, there's no denying that's the mission you're supporting now. You don't get to claim in one year or ten or twenty that you didn't know what ICE was doing. You're complicit.

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.
