So far, ice from the winter storm has killed fewer Americans than ICE from the Trump administration.

Literally EVERYTHING else aside:
Officers involved in shootings - even shootings that everybody agrees were justified - always take time off to emotionally process their experience, go to therapy, process it.
Sending somebody right back out says "this is an everyday part of your job, expect it."

CBP chief Bovino has confirmed that the officers who executed Alex Pretti in the street yesterday are not only *not on administrative leave,* they have all been reassigned to other jurisdictions and are all on the street today.
This is totally unheard of for any officer-involved shooting

ICE agents in Colorado have been leaving ace of spades cards behind when they detain someone, a psychological warfare technique the United States Armed Forces used against its mortal enemies during the Vietnam War.
If you do not think Donald Trump is at war with his country, think again.

Renee Good and Alex Pretti can also be listed as victims of the Epstein scandal.
They were murdered so you would stop talking about the Epstein list.

Leaders of the so-called “pro-life, small government” party who relentlessly warn of tyranny are standing by as masked agents roam the country and brutalize its people. The hypocrisy isn’t surprising — but it’s staggering. Remember this.

These ICE agents are, clearly, lawless sociopaths—being enabled by a phalanx of congenital liars in the Trump administration.

Really hard to look at this and all the other examples of bravery and kindness from ordinary people in this moment not think also of the tremendous cowardice exhibited over the past year by some of the richest, most well-protected people in business, media and politics

This is what can and should be done. Dems who say there isn’t anything they can do are lying, complicit, incompetent, or apathetic.
Bill Kristol is making a clearer case for what Democrats can and should do in the minority than Chuck Schumer or Hakeem Jeffries ever has
AND IMPEACH AND REMOVE.
We need to clamor for that even if the votes aren't there—yet.

Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara: "People have had enough. This is the third shooting in less than 3 weeks. The MPD went the entire year last year recovering about 900 guns from the street, arresting hundreds of violent offenders, and we didn't shoot anyone ... this is not sustainable."

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

This is the only solution.
There is no compromise short of full prosecution, with pardonability,ie state charges, handled in state court, that resolves these crimes.

There's no negotiating with that. There's no compromise with that. We should demand removal and prosecution of everyone up the chain of command as a minimum and every single member of this regime should face justice when meting it out is possible.

My take: two ways to fight the trump regime: 1) Democrats stop working with Republicans on anything. 2) If the world wants to help, boycott the U.S. Do not visit. Do not buy our products. This regime feeds on money and power and we need to starve them. #Resist

Alex Pretti stepped in to protect a woman being brutalized.
For that, he was murdered.
RIP Alex Pretti.
