Anne Frank wrote these words in 1943 while hiding, while families were being pulled apart. She wasn’t describing chaos. She was describing process. Normalized cruelty. Systems doing what systems do when nobody stops them.
This is history as a warning. #DefundICE

Alex from our time working together, while he was in nursing school. Later, he moved to ICU, working as a nurse to support critically ill Veterans. He had such a great attitude. We’d chat between patients about trying to get in a mountain bike ride together. Will never happen now

Walz: Minnesota's justice system will have the last word on this.
As I told the white house in no uncertain terms this morning, the federal government cannot be trusted to lead this investigation. The state will handle it. Period.

If you are a gun owner - now is the time to call your local *and* national gun organization and press them to make a statement that lawful concealed carry should not get you shot.
The Republican position now appears to be that you have a constitutional right to openly carry a gun in public, unless you do so while expressing a view that the government dislikes, in which case the secret police can shoot you to death on the spot.
Minneapolis police chief Brian O'Hara says that the victim was a 37-year-old white man and US citizen with no criminal record and that he was a legally permitted gun owner.

His last act of kindness was helping another human.

Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him.

In fact, ICE was just upset that he was recording their operation. The government’s goal is to feed you lies and make you believe the propaganda machine. Lots of videos are already circulating, and they don’t match the government’s narrative.

A sad day for America. Our constitutional rights are being trampled. 💔 ICE is saying the man “attempted to threaten them,” but video indicates this isn’t true.

Alex Pretti, a 37-year-old U.S. citizen and Minneapolis resident, was murdered by ICE today. He was a lawful gun owner. Our government saw his Second Amendment right as a threat and executed him in the streets.

Democrats can and must make it clear there will be trials and anyone even somewhat associated with ICE will face them. Maybe give a quit-your-job deadline on appeasement and give people 72 hours. I don't know. But currently the plan is to let them murder us in the street and get away with it.

I am watching what is happening in Minneapolis on Ali Velshi and one of the ICE officers (off camera) literally says, “It’s like Call of Duty. Pretty cool huh?” as they shoot whatever it is they are shooting. Agents walking around, guns unholstered for no reason. This is insanity
