NEW: The ICE killing of Alex Pretti, the second in Minneapolis, prompts quick legal action.

After ICE agents killed Alex Pretti on Saturday, lawyers responded quickly — leading to one TRO issued before the night's end aimed at preserving evidence of the killing.

My report at Law Dork:
The ICE killing of Alex Pretti, the second in Minneapolis, prompts quick legal responses
After ICE agents killed Alex Pretti on Saturday, lawyers took quick action in cases challenging the Trump administration's increasingly deadly efforts.

MN & other locations:

ICE believe they're above the law. A Fed judge just ordered that they cannot deploy chemical agents at peaceful protesters. Again.

Even if all you do is go to a hardware store & get a very good dust mask & goggles, it will help. Also, it'll make you unidentifiable. Like them

"How COVID can affect heart, even after an infection is gone"

Research shows COVID affects the heart in multiple ways, raising the risk of heart attacks, strokes, heart muscle damage, and arrhythmias. While risk is highest soon after infection, studies show it can remain elevated for up to 3 years.

I'm a pretty wonderful neighbour. Some might even say a delightful neighbour. But since my neighbour Steve didn't get me a birthday gift this year I am going to invade his house. Because that's how being a sane adult works.

What worries me with ice is that the public has no way of knowing if they are really ice. They have unmarked vehicles, wear masks, show no warrants or legal paperwork, no identification, and appear very unprofessional and violent. Anyone could be impersonating ice to terrorize our communities.

Skipping my 2nd opener was a good strategy, despite a modal 4 tries to solve. My next 2 guesses still eliminated common letters contained in my 2nd opener, and might have solved sooner.

It is also threatening Denmark's, Colombia's, and Cuba's sovereignty. It has previously threatened Canada's and you can be sure it will do so again.

Maduro was an authoritarian unworthy of any sympathy, but the US is embracing lawlessness. Failure to oppose that now only invites further violations.

Canada's response on Venezuela is both right, and wrong. It is right to call for all parties to adhere to international law, but the problem is that the US clearly is violating it. Canada needs to be explicit about this, because the US is not just violating Venezuela's sovereignty.

Fraud is a national problem, and cases in Minnesota have been under federal and state investigation for years. So why is it suddenly a national issue?

It's a case study in the power of the right's propaganda machine.
