The right side is a screengrab from video taken by onlookers when US DHS agents shot and killed Alex Pretti on January 24, 2026 in Minneapolis. Compared to videos shared online, the image is accurate, only changed to greyscale w/ altered contrast for clarity. 2/2 www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article...

I found a source for the left side of your image: www.memoiresdeguerre.com/2015/09/crim...

It's a real historical photo called "The Last Jew of Vinnitsa", taken in Vinnitsa, Ukraine, in 1941. 1/2

Together, we can defeat the forces that would rip apart our democracy and install a white nationalist autocracy in place of our beloved Republic. Now is a time of monsters, but it is also a time for heroes to vanquish them.

None of the news articles I saw had a picture - also weird.

I searched and found locked social media accounts. I also found 'Christian Joel Young' from Utah on Facebook, but the account featured snowboarding & surfing, not racism/politics. In case it's a different person, I won't link it here. 2/2

Nova Scotia Chief Medical Officer of Health, Dr. Robert Strang also debased himself with bold lies. He still holds the position of CMOH and had never even had to face questions regarding his past lies. He hides away now, as our hospitals are in a state of perpetual crisis.

They espoused, enabled, & supported MAGA abuses. Glad some now object to certain other atrocities, but it doesn't absolve them. They are cruel & hateful. They attack marginalized ppl bc their privileged status would falter under rigorous scrutiny.

They made MAGA choices & earned their ignominy. 2/2

Just bc they support openly oppressing others, using legal institutions to discriminate against those who are different - but not actually harmful, just because they choose bigotry over reason/justice/consistency in the recognition of human rights, just bc they went along w/ GOP/MAGA in past... 1/2

"Less lethal" is a long-established correct term for so-called 'nonlethal' weapons like tasers, rubber bullets, etc. They are designed to hurt/incapacitate, but not intended to kill healthy adults when used correctly. (Regular guns are designed to kill.)

So yes they are already potentially lethal.

Their slack-jawed goons figured out how to buy gas masks. Why not the employable, sober, mentally-competent portion of the electorate?

Trump is itching to sell cancelling elections altogether. But if he has to go through the charade, polls may well be closed or moved w/o warning to other locations, boxes lost, voters detained until polls close, mail-in ballots prohibited & threats against non-GOP candidates. Plus simple fraud.

As I understand it, Trump is still sadistic. He likes others to suffer; it makes him feel powerful. But he's shallow, forgetful and selfish, so he probably doesn't think about children in cages, except when they are right in front of him.

He's vengeful against anyone who criticizes or thwarts him.

Umm, another ICE murder in the street - so even some GOP may choose not to give DHS an extra $10 billion., Waltz finally activating the National Guard, Trump having a total meltdown. Basketball game postponed in honor of the impending civil war. And Canada is over US's nonsense. Seems to cover it.

It's pretty hard to administer CPR without taking off your mask. (Unless they have a pumpable bag-mask for rescue breathing. Really, they ought to carry such equipment, considering they are murdering ppl regularly, but I doubt they do.)

I don't trust the mendacious administration's word.

But you might like @bellingcat.com - a very diligent nonprofit OSINT group w/ an excellent track record. They always bring receipts, and clarify what is claimed vs verified.

The gun taken by the agent appears to match the general appearance of the firearm shared online by DHS, and which they said was Pretti’s. This agent’s back is turned from the scene with the gun in his hand when the first shot occurs.

The 23-ppl could stop this part is true.

But the "no excuses about not knowing" moment was - at the absolute latest! - Jan 6, 2021. Every single vote, dollar, nod, sane-washing word, or moment of acceptance of MAGA since then is complicit.
January 25, 2026 at 2:40 AM
It appears he did have a gun. Which he carried legally and fully licensed. And which remained in 'holstered' until ICE took removed it themselves. Pretti still did nothing wrong, illegal or unethical.

It doesn't help to confuse the issue by denying (apparently) true facts.

Of course they wouldn't, and who would blame them? I'm just saying that it's even harder to drive in conditions where cars & infrastructure (and all the drivers around you) are ill-prepared for exceptional weather.
