While glad to see Bovino humbled, I really don’t have any higher opinion of Homan—a cruel, cold, corrupt, calculating bureaucrat who’s devoted more of his career to mass deportation than almost anyone. He’s the architect of child separation.

Exactly right.
Bovino's leaving? Great, get Noem to resign.
Noem resigns? Great, defund and dismantle ICE.
Go after Stephen Miller too. Bring charges against ICE thugs at the state and local level. Lawsuits. New state laws restricting them.
Every possible angle.

Here's the thing, Greg — free speech is still protected by the First Amendment under the Constitution.
If you want folks to stop saying you're the secret police who are kidnapping and killing people, maybe stop acting like the secret police who are kidnapping and killing people.

Bovino: "When politicians, community leaders, & some journalists engage in that heated rhetoric we keep talking about, when they make the choice to vilify law enforcement calling law enforcement 'Gestapo' or using the term 'kidnapping,' that is a choice & there are actions & consequences."

Before anyone jumps down my throat of “did you vote in the 2024 election?”
Yes. I voted for Kamala Harris by early mail-in voting. I’ve voted in EVERY SINGLE election since I turned 18.
Voting will not save this nation now. Have accepted that reality?

I am conscious of the fact that I knew on Saturday that when I asked people to call their Senators in the face of Alex Pretti's death, that people would call. & those calls might make a difference. & the DHS funding bill is dead right now. I don't feel immigrant death would get the same reaction.

ICE & CBP have killed several people over the last year and the only names to enter the popular consciousness are the names of the white Americans they have killed. We need to attend to what structures that, both externally & internally.

We are all drowning in a pool of systemic propaganda so I understand why the deaths of Renee Good and Alex Pretti feel esp shocking and I think it is important to do the internal work of asking yourself, if this applies to you, why the deaths of immigrants/Black folks don't shock in the same way

People are saying this because it doesn't matter whether someone is a good person or a bad person, there is no justification for police or ICE to execute them. We want people to stop being tried in the court of public opinion for being murdered
Maybe I'm misreading the room but it feels like people are scolding each other for sharing the legitimately admirable parts of Alex Pretti's life to honor him and the good he was trying to do and if so that's fucked up
