Highlights a problem for Mexico & other countries who might be willing (albeit under pressure) to quietly cooperate w/ US military, intelligence, or law enforcement.

This administration won't keep such cooperation quiet because they need to boast about every "win."

This should piss everyone off, and our tax dollars paid for this.

A massive building purchased by ICE for $70 million in Arizona to “warehouse” immigrants.

Calling this “housing” is a lie. This is storage. This is treating human beings like inventory.

I’m a NO — not one more penny for ICE without stopping this violence. Two American citizens were killed by federal agents.

No more roving patrols. No more secret masked police. No more warrantless raids. Investigate and prosecute ICE crimes.

Get ICE out of Minnesota.

I can't think of anything less patriotic than allowing a corrupt pedophile to suspend the constitution so he can murder citizens, enrich himself, and imprison journalists.

If Don Lemon didn’t matter, they’d ignore him. They can’t. Power only fears what it can’t control. That’s Don Lemon. And they fear the platform he’s building. Which they just helped build.

It’s very notable that Stephen Miller’s wife is going out of her way to highlight these comments.

Stephen Miller smeared Alex Pretti—calling him a “domestic terrorist” and “assassin” to justify his murder.

Now Katie Miller and her husband are trying to throw others under the bus.

“I watched him die… then I watched them maneuver his body like a rag doll— only to discover it was because they wanted to count the bullet wounds and see how many they ‘got’, like he was a deer.”

Minnesota needs impartial investigations, the departure of federal forces, and an end to the campaign of retribution against our state.

I served my country as a combat veteran for 21-years. I was wounded on the battlefield in Iraq. I served at the Pentagon under presidents from both parties, putting our nation’s safety before politics.

You can bet your ass I’m not backing down from the fight against chaos and corruption.

This mid-afternoon Alex Pretti vigil at the Portland VA was not heavily promoted. But the crowd probably stretches a quarter mile or more. Americans are galvanized and grieving.

The strongest qualification Kristi Noem had to build the kind of terror squad Trump wanted, was that she shot her own dog rather than take the time to train it.
