Maybe the invasion of Minnesota and the murder of Americans by their government was meant to distract us from the fact that the president is all over the Epstein files and has been accused of raping children.

Just say the government is lying. The goal of journalism should be to inform, not gaslight.
A battle over the truth erupts after deadly Minneapolis shooting

Federal and local leaders are sharply divided over what happened and who is to blame.

“Don’t call us the Gestapo or we’ll have to summarily execute 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."

My sister-in-law's dad died last week, in hospice in the VA hospital in Minneapolis. I just learned Alex Pretti was part of his care team. They shot Alex less than 1/2 mile from my niece's house while doing the same observation work that my niece is doing. These are real people. Step up folks!

This was Alex Pretti at work at the VA honoring a veteran who had passed.
This is who they're trying to falsely smear as a terrorist and assassin.

This is a moment that calls for more resistance not less. The message must be that the US government cannot terrorize us into silence in the face of their crimes.

Who in their right mind believes statements from the Department of Homeland Security?
Who believes anything Kristi Noem or Stephen Miller or Trump might say about what has just happened in Minneapolis?
They no longer have any credibility. That should be clear by now.
They lie like they breathe.

The only ways to "lower the temperature" in the conflict between this administration and the American people is for our government to stop murdering us, stop kidnapping innocent people, stop terrorizing our cities, stop serially violating the law and stop lying about what they are doing.

Stephen Miller is a very sick person, more so, IMO, than the president. And he is calling the shots.
I remember when Terry Moran dared to make this observation and got fired from ABC for it.

an administration staffed to the top with degenerate liars
Noem lies shamelessly: "An individual approached order Patrol officers with a 9mm semi-automatic gun. The officers attempted to disarm this individual, but the armed suspect reacted violently. This looks like a situation where an individual arrived to inflict maximum damage and kill law enforcement"

This is the sort of statement that was expected from every university president and law firm partner over the last year. That those statements weren’t made played a huge part in where we are now and people will remember.
Jerome Powell: "This is about whether the Fed will be able to continue to set interest rates based on evidence and economic conditions—or whether instead monetary policy will be directed by political pressure or intimidation."

Renee Good committed gender insubordination: she didn't cower & grovel to male authority. Many women are killed for the very same reason all over the world. We just call it by the euphemism "domestic violence" instead of what it is: a campaign of political terrorism in which any man can participate.
When Renee Good said "I'm not mad at you" what the ICE goon heard was "I'm not scared of you."
That's what enraged him. The populace wasn't fully terrorized and cowed into submission yet, so he acted to make that happen.

The “if she had complied, she’d still be alive” line that we’re hearing from ICE defenders is the mantra of apologists for security forces in dictatorships through the ages.
