The Squeaker of the House @SpeakerJohnson hiding under the floorboards of the House. Not a drop of compassion or honor.
This feed has been silent in the 48 hours since Pretti was killed, even as other top House Republicans like Comer have said Trump should consider removing ICE from Minnesota.

Seems like a good time for a reminder - there is no statute of limitations on murder. Not in Massachusetts, not in Minnesota, not anywhere in the USA

Amid these dark moments, something important is beginning to shift. It's clearly the result of healthy political pressure - which we must sustain, and build.

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 &

My mom was stopped and harassed by masked ICE agents while shopping at an outlet mall in Texas. Because she has an accent, they assumed she spoke Spanish and started talking to her in Spanish. When she said she doesn’t speak Spanish, they began demanding where she was “from,”

“[My father] had one problem,” Trump said. “…He started getting, what do they call it?” He pointed to his forehead and looked to his press secretary for the word that escaped him. “Alzheimer’s,” Leavitt said. “Like an Alzheimer’s thing,” Trump said. “Well, I don’t have it.”

This underscores the need for the business community to speak out, as business leaders in Minnesota did over weekend. Trump will probably not care that the Post, WSJ, NYT, and WaPo editorial boards are aligned in opposition to ICE tactics. He'll care about markets. 1/2
Trump had all Saturday and Sunday to say something and stop this, but he didn’t. Why did he wait until Sunday night? Stock futures were down 300 points.

So many runners-up for worst liar in the Trump Administration but this guy is a minister. Shame.
We can confirm Alex Pretti was a nurse at the Minneapolis VA Medical Center. As President Trump has said, nobody wants to see chaos and death in American cities, and we send our condolences to the Pretti family. Such tragedies are unfortunately happening in Minnesota because of

You are allowed to bring a semiautomatic weapon to a peaceful protest. The government is not allowed to shoot you for possessing a gun.
Bessent: I'm sorry he is dead, but he did bring a semiautomatic weapon to what was supposed to be a peaceful protest. Karl: There's no evidence that he brandished the gun whatsoever Bessent: But he brought a gun! Karl: We do have a second amendment in this country.

When an ICE agent killed Renee Good, Kristi Noem baselessly called her a domestic terrorist. Now, agents killed another resident on her watch. I don’t take impeachment lightly, but this moment demands action. Americans deserve leaders who put them above this authoritarian agenda.
