“We need to divert attention from the Pretti murder.”

One armed goon loses his shit at an observer who's backing up, and then several more armed goons tackle the observer to the ground, and then even more armed goons form a protective shield around the armed goons handcuffing the observer for hurting an armed goon's feelings.

This can't be "reformed"

The 2029 Pretti Good Act will establish a commission to identify all agents, create a detailed accounting of all acts, and hold criminally liable as necessary. Agents who voluntarily and truthfully disclose will be granted some leniency, provided their crimes did not include murder or torture.
When I say this agency [ICE and CBP] CAN’T be reformed this is why.

Here's the thing, Greg — free speech is still protected by the First Amendment under the Constitution.

If you want folks to stop saying you're the secret police who are kidnapping and killing people, maybe stop acting like the secret police who are kidnapping and killing people.

Remember the Bundy insanity during the Obama years? Armed guys occupied a federal office and one of their buddies took position with a sniper rifle aimed at federal agents?

Exactly how many of those guys were shot and killed?

What a relief that they’re calling for a general de-escalation of tensions, since it’s hard to tell who’s at fault, the people murdering people or the people who aren’t doing the murdering.

Hey, Guy Who Literally Dresses Up Like A Nazi, when you kidnap people and act like the Gestapo, that shit is going to happen. It's not vilifying when you're a villain

You don't murder people for using the word "kidnapper" (which, I'll add, is an accurate description of grabbing people and locking them up without due process.)

If you do, you're a fascist.

If the people who lied yesterday about what happened are on the news today when you knew they would lie again then you’re simply not the news
WELKER: Look at these images. A protester on the ground being pepper sprayed. A 5-year-old being detained. A citizen being pulled out of his home half naked, later released upon determination he was wrongly detained. Are federal agents acting humanely?

BLANCHE: Yes. Our agents are acting humanely

Our country was founded on resistance to a tyrant.
Attorney General Pam Bondi: "Our country was founded on law enforcement"
Bondi: "It's extremely organized. The signs they have are all matching, they're well written. And look at what's happening today. How did these people go out & get gas masks? These protesters. Would you know how to walk out on the street and buy a gas mask? Think about that. We're not gonna have it"

The Department of Homeland Security is murdering American citizens.

Congress cannot allow that to continue.

Getting these people out of Minnesota and cutting off funding should be a minimum response.

This is an outrage and an assault on our rights and freedom and it must stop.
