This is the correct way to police ICE. And it drives the far right nuts. Good.

The new fake video of Alex Pretti that is being used to discredit his memory is an AI fake made by @mazemoor (on X).

He even admitted it.

It has been debunked by many sources.

The video is a very good fake, but it’s fake....

I slow-motioned the mistake for you.

It hasn’t gone unnoticed that all four people arrested today, including two journalists, were Black.

And now we find out the charge is “conspiracy to violate civil rights,” a statute rooted in the Ku Klux Klan Act.

Sit with that.

Wow! I can’t believe we got this done! Now call your senators and tell them restrictions are nice, but they should strip the BBB funding of ICE and CBP.
🚨 The Senate has agreed to a deal to vote on 5/6 full appropriations bills and replace the DHS funding measure with a 2-week stopgap bill, per multiple sources. That gives time to negotiate on the Dem demands for ICE and CBP restraints.

ICE’s tactics have been terrifying and tragic, but Minneapolis is responding in incredible ways. Residents are organizing, feeding and housing their neighbors, and putting real social infrastructure in place. What’s taking shape isn’t just a reaction, it’s a blueprint for resistance.

The federal presence in Minnesota has been especially tough on our local businesses.

Choosing to shop local, grab takeout, or visit a neighborhood store is one way we can stand with our neighbors and continue to show the nation what it means to respond with care and decency.
