This morning, I recorded a video on TikTok about why DHS’s arguments for the power to enter homes without judicial warrants in immigration cases are bunk.

Nine hours later, TikTok still says my video is “under review,” and can’t be shared.

Well, here’s a link:

Alex Pretti "used to tell people off when they made sexist comments to female physicians. He bought me coffee when I had a really bad day as an intern...I laughed alongside him daily. He made a point to teach medical residents without judgement, but with a smile on his face and a joke."

Looking at the video footage so far I think its questionable whether he was armed at the moment he was killed.
Even presuming this is true, possessing a gun is completely legal if he had the appropriate permit. They're not even claiming he pulled it or brandished it, just that he had one. That's no reason to execute someone.

For those who missed it yesterday, this thread contains a detailed analysis of the Alex Pretti killing, clearly showing he was holding a phone when attacked by ICE, and had a gun removed from him shortly before being shot to death by ICE officers.
Federal law enforcement agents shot and killed a man in Minneapolis on Jan. 24 according to local police officials. DHS told Fox News that the man was “armed with a gun”. A video of the shooting appears to show that a gun was taken from the man before the first shot was fired. x.com/BillMelugin_...

Een jaar voor een belangrijke deadline voldoet nog geen enkele Nederlandse sloot, beek of rivier aan de Europese kwaliteitseisen. In tegendeel: het water gaat zelfs achteruit. "Dit heeft de potentie om de Nederlandse vergunningverlening opnieuw op slot te zetten."

Nederlandse waterkwaliteit blijft ondermaats, terwijl EU-deadline nadert
De Nederlandse wateren behoren tot de slechtste van Europa. Hierdoor dreigt een "stikstofslot 2.0".

🇵🇱 Sikorski: For anyone who thinks Russia can be trusted, I remind you that Putin calls the Ukrainian people "brothers" and then murders them.

I remind you that Ukraine and Russia have a border treaty signed by Putin. Budapest Memorandum… If anyone is still unconvinced, please look at the facts.

I hate to burst everyone's bubble but if you think that CBS News losing ratings or prestige matters to David Ellison, you're mistaken. Murdoch ran the NY Post for 45 years without turning a profit. They want these media companies to pump propaganda, not to get ratings or make money.

New in PN: The dehumanization machine speeds up

"Months after the nation and world were appalled by George Floyd’s murder, it became an event with two different truths. With the killing of Good, the right has not even deigned to admit the heinousness of the event before deciding she had it coming."
The right-wing dehumanization machine is speeding up
They're skipping right past thoughts and prayers.

🇺🇦‼️ Zelensky on Putin's statement that he wants to see Ukraine successful:

"I don't know what he told Trump, but there is zero faith in these words. If what he did in Bakhmut, Vovchansk, Chasiv Yar, Pokrovsk now is called success, then let them build such success in Russia."
