They don't have a problem with people being murdered in the street, children being kidnapped, and unnecessary violence against protestors. They're just annoyed because all this makes them look bad. They see bad optics, not bad policy.

It’s not an “optics” problem. It’s not a “messaging” problem. The problem is heavily-armed, masked federal thugs on our streets breaking the law, ignoring the Constitution, and targeting, harassing, assaulting, & killing immigrants & citizens.
No way will we the people allow that in this country.

She’s right, and I’m glad we finally have congressional candidates unafraid to say what needs to be said.
Abolish ICE is not enough.
Stern words for Greg Bovino or Kristi Noem is not enough.
We need prosecutions and trials.
Anything short of this position fails to address the gravity of this moment.

Gallego: I think it's ridiculous that Kristi Noem just went out right away and basically called this poor victim, a violent terrorist. That right there is impeachable. She lied about a citizen to justify his murder. The president should ask for her resignation.

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."

You see, what has to happen here is that Pretti’s family HAS to sue Miller for $100 million for defamation of their son’s character.
They’d win hands down, Miller would be bankrupted, and a serious message would be sent to all the other liars and criminals in this administration.

Needless to say that Renee Good and Alex Pretti will go down as heroes here in Minnesota and nationally, their names synonymous with sacrifice and caring for vulnerable neighbors even at the risk of your own life. And hopefully no more innocent lives are lost.

Naming someone is not doxxing. They aren’t undercover. They aren’t intelligence agents overseas. This is outrageous - we are supposed to be a free Republic and these people want an authoritarian police state. Lawsuits should be filed & ranking Dems in Congress should act.
