Remember her name: Aliya Rahman
Her testimony is everything and it deserves to be heard, by everyone. Decide for yourself.
It’s powerful. It’s gut-wrenching. And no one should have to survive what she did.
ICE MUST GO‼️

Both of Alex Pretti's murderers are Latino CBP officers from South Texas.

So, it seems, is Alfredo Mancillas, who got wildly drunk on Tuesday (Monday?), drove drunk, then vomited all over himself.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Because it needs to be said, Renee Good and Alex Pretti weren’t just murdered, they were executed.

Trump has declared war on Minnesota. We are seeing state sponsored terrorism. Democratic prosecutors need to start criminally charging ICE agents for their violence TODAY! Let ICE raise any immunity defense at trial. But this might be the only way to deter from ICE from murdering more Americans!

I heard a good point. If that officer felt “threatened” by that lady such that he had to kill her, he is too fragile to be a cop.

We evacuated our kids out of Minneapolis this weekend and my spouse reports that as she drove them out of town she saw "multiple freeway exits where people are being pulled over." It feels like the Twin Cities is being subjugated by a hostile occupying force.
