This is a dangerous slope. When you damage the trust in elections, you damage the success of democracy. People need to trust that their voice is heard. Check out my full recap in my Weekend Video available at the Substack link in my reply.

Jean Wilson Brutus was a 41 year old father of an 11 year old, detained by I*E on Dec 11th 2025 and died the next day to what I*E called “natural causes.”

Shortly after detainment, he was transferred to a hospital where he died. A nurse said it appeared he “fell down stairs.”
He deserves justice.

The killing of Alex Pretti and the grotesque lying was an overreach by the administration. They've paid a price and had to pull back a bit. But it's when there's some disarray that the democratic opposition needs to intensify the offensive, and turn a marginal tactical success into a major victory.

#GVerse Chicago turnout this morning was INSANE.

Thousands hit the streets demanding justice for Alex Pretti and calling out the federal crackdown that killed him.

This isn’t “local unrest” anymore. It’s national.

America, we have reached a moment when silence is no longer acceptable.

Heavily armed forces—funded and directed by the Republican Party—are attacking and killing American citizens.

Trump and his administration must be removed from power immediately. Impeachment cannot wait.

It does seem strange Trump has completely lawless people looking for supposed lawless immigrants 🤔🤨. One thing for sure, this administration is fascist,racist,bigoted and vile. And we’ve all seen their hypocrisy. But you don’t have to take my word for it. Everyday is another chapter in Trump chaos.

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer said, hours after the Saturday shooting, that what is happening in Minnesota is "appalling" and that Democrats "will not provide the votes to proceed to the appropriations bill if the DHS funding bill is included." https://to.pbs.org/3NOHkop
Funding deal begins to unravel as Senate Democrats vow to oppose DHS bill over Alex Pretti shooting in Minnesota
If senators fail to act by midnight Friday, funding for Homeland Security and the other agencies covered under the six bills will lapse.

Yes, the GOP controls Congress. That's why it's key to show Congress COULD stop the madness. And it's not just the DHS bill. Congress could repeal the prior multi-year $75b for DHS; set up a special investigative committee (cf. Watergate); amend the Insurrection Act; etc.
