“I’m not surprised this happened,” Ilhan Omar attacker Anthony Kazmierczak’s brother said. “Not at all. Unfortunately, he and my mother are both right-wing extremists.”

"In my mind, he’s a piece of s**t," he added.

My operating assumption is that he tried to do a hasty coup in 2020 that failed, and so everything he does in his second term should be understood as laying the groundwork for a second coup to succeed.
This needs to happen at the very least

The man who assaulted Ilhan Omar is a MAGA man through and through, fiercely loyal to Trump, and attentive to his attacks on Ilhan Omar. That makes this yet another case of Trump-incited stochastic terrorism.

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.

Something important to understand about ICE thugs in the Twin Cities is that they're harassing innocent kids and parents at bus stops and schools every single day. Even after the Pretti shooting. It's terrorism.

The president should be impeached and convicted, as should everyone responsible for these outrages. ICE should be disbanded. So should the Department of Homeland Security. And the people who have killed should be investigated and brought before judges and juries.
We have to see the logic of the killings as well as the killings themselves. The horror is a truth in itself. But it is also a sign of a political logic, one known from the totalitarian regimes of the twentieth century.

So, if this is accurate, the Trump administration wants Ukraine to commit strategic suicide (giving up chain of Donbas fortresses) as the price of getting worthless US security guarantees. What a deal! giftarticle.ft.com/giftarticle/...

As a reporter, I carried the home phone number of Maryland's chief district judge in my wallet. The Hon. Dennis Sweeney would, on an ask, explain to recalcitrant desk sergeants and shift lieutenants that he would hold them in contempt if they denied the public the face sheet of any shooting report.
I heard someone say it was “extreme” to demand the names of the ICE agents who murdered Alex Pretti.

No. Demanding government disclosure of the names of government agents when they kill Americans is moderate.

Wanting to read the names off the plaque at a mass grave would be, perhaps, extreme.

These are two civilians who were trying to escape the Russian-occupied village of Hrabovske in the Sumy region on their own, using a sled. Later, drone footage captured a man sitting over the body of a woman who had just been killed by a Russian FPV drone.

US security guarantees under Trump will have zero value. None.

Trump lies constantly & has a decades-long record of breaching contracts. He says he respects no laws beyond his personal ‘morality.’

Ukraine must not cede a single inch to US-RU pressure & Europe must back them up.

Chuck Schumer's starting position should be as maximalist as possible -- complete abolition of ICE, resignations of Bovino, Homan, Noem and Miller, unmasking of all agents, and prosecution by state authorities of the murderers.

Don't start with what looks like a compromise half-measure.
Majority of the country now wants to abolish and/or dismantle ICE and yet Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y. told the caucus the message had to be to “restrain, reform and restrict ICE.”

Once again it looks like Schumer is about to choke after getting a massive opportunity.

So pathetic and weak.

Europe & Ukraine can keep flattering Trump, hoping that he won't stop the US selling weapons to UA or Europe, or supplying intelligence. They must not for an instant think that Trump is on their side. This is basically like Czechoslovakia being forced to give up its defences in the Sudetenland.
Trump is trying to give Russia exactly what they want & call it a ‘peace deal.’ It’s in fact a guarantee for a bigger war.
Donbas is Ukraine’s main line of defense. The region is heavily fortified & holds Russia back from attacking the rest of Ukraine, & from there the EU.

NEW: In response to Alex Pretti's killing, Mississippi Gov. Tate Reeves said that it was "really hard to watch" protesters carrying upside-down American flags.

He called protesters "lawless hordes" and said they should go "back to Mogadishu."

He also blamed Pretti for (legally) carrying a gun.

Vietnam was the first TV war. Let’s not kid ourselves - Trump’s pivot wasn’t about the killings. It was about the video. The only lesson they’ll take away from this is to avoid creating martyrs on camera.

Pam Bondi telling Minneapolis that ICE will be recalled *only* when that blue city turns over its voter rolls is a clear reveal that this isn't about immigration. It's about interfering with upcoming elections that may not favor Donald Trump.
