FOLKS IN MINNEAPOLIS:
SAVE all videos & photos from today. They will be valuable to prove the ICE agent --- who had time to move & re-position himself to the side of the victim's car to shoot into the driver's side window --- was not in reasonable fear of imminent serious physical injury or death.

Do not accept the idea that local officials can't do anything because the FBI "cut them out."
They should run their own investigation. If the Feds try to stop them they should force them to arrest cops and DAs. The mayor should go on TV demanding the release of his officers.
No business as usual.

Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

One of Trump’s few consistent positions is pro-corruption.
Trump calls on the Israeli President to pardon Benjamin Netanyahu:
"Cigars and champagne - who the hell cares about it?"
Netanyahu is currently on trial for bribery, fraud, and breach of trust, including allegedly accepting 700,000 shekels (approx. $210,000) worth of luxury goods in bribes.
