  1. (It's not just our fallen soldiers abroad who need a dignified return; #Pretti and #Good need recognition for sacrifices they made. Sentiments on the left: caving may well be his last bad choice.)

    Schumer: lawmakers have another chance to fund TSA on Saturday, when a procedural vote on legislation funding the individual agency is expected.

    "The chaos at #TSA is reaching a boiling point. We need to reopen it as quickly as possible," in a floor speech Friday.

    "Don't be upset by all this device and internet survielance, it's not a military dictatorship" they used to say before Trump built a personal racist military, and subverted the FBI and Department of Justice, and got military commanders calling his orders the voice of god.

  8. Federal Agents Stopped EMT From Giving Alex Pretti First Aid

    MINNEAPOLIS ­— The struggle that killed Alex Pretti began with a shove. It ended with gunshots. In the final moments before he was shot and killed by federal authorities in Minneapolis, Pretti attempted to intervene in a confrontation where...

  12. A federal judge has accused the #Trump administration of
    ⚠️terrorizing immigrants and recklessly violating the law
    in its efforts to deport millions of people living in the country illegally.

    Citing the deaths of Renee #Good and Alex #Pretti in #Minnesota,
    the judge said that the White House had also⚠️ “extended its violence on its own citizens.”
    “The threats posed by the executive branch cannot be viewed in isolation,”
    U.S. District Judge #Sunshine #Sykes in Riverside, California said in a scathing decision issued late Wednesday.
    💥Sykes said the administration had violated her December ruling that found it was illegally denying many detained immigrants a chance for release.

    💥She ordered the U.S. Department of Homeland Security to provide them with notice that they may be eligible for bond and then give them access to a phone to call an attorney within an hour.

    💥She also threw out a September ruling by an immigration court that the administration had cited for continuing its mandatory detention policy.

    The White House referred comment Thursday to the Homeland Security department. -- The department said in a statement that the Supreme Court had “repeatedly overruled” lower courts on the issue of mandatory detention.

  13. The Woman #AlexPretti Was Killed Trying to Defend Is an EMT. Federal Agents Stopped Her From Giving First Aid.
    “I was literally begging the agent who was holding me back to let me do CPR,” she told The Intercept in an exclusive interview.

    Video footage captured by another bystander shows that just as Pretti managed to stabilize the EMT, agents shoved the other woman to the ground. As Pretti and the EMT attempt to help her stand up, multiple agents surround the group and begin to spray them with cans of chemical irritant. Some of the agents continue pursuing the women, while others separate #Pretti from the group and begin beating him.

    “I was saying to the agents, “We’re leaving! We’re leaving. We’re leaving!’ — just trying desperately to like get them to stop,” the EMT said.

  18. The Trump administration’s rush to declare Ms. #Good and Mr. #Pretti at fault for instigating violence
    was quickly undercut by a barrage of viral videos.

    ⭐️But a New York Times review of the other shootings found that similar claims by officials fell apart more quietly when the cases went to court

    The Trump administration was quick to pin the blame.
    Days after a federal immigration agent shot at #Phillip #Brown, a U.S. citizen, last October at a busy commercial intersection in Washington, D.C.,
    a spokeswoman for the Department of Homeland Security
    claimed Mr. Brown had made a “deliberate attempt” to run officers down with his car.
    Mr. Brown, 33, was arrested, charged with a felony — fleeing from law enforcement — and spent three days in jail.

    In court, however, the case against Mr. Brown quickly unraveled
    as a judge found that the government failed to present any evidence supporting its claims.
    The judge dismissed the charges and said the agent had fired his weapon “for reasons that are completely unclear to me.”

    🔥Mr. Brown’s case is among the 16 shootings by on-duty federal immigration agents patrolling in U.S. cities and towns over the past year,
    including those that took the lives of Minnesota protesters Renee Good and Alex Pretti.

  23. @georgetakei

    All the more ironic #Trump is losing ground with the #SecondAmendment crowd after his administration targeted #Pretti for legally carrying a weapon many of them also own.

    Sadly, living in the US I sometimes legally carry very similar concealed gear - down to the number spare magazines - not out of fear of minorities or to intimidate anyone, but because I’m prepared for threats from someone who looks just like me, and I have a family to protect.

  24. ​Operation Metro Surge killed U.S. citizens in Minneapolis. Thiel’s #Palantir tech was the “digital henchman” used to target them. Is this "Law & Order"? #Minneapolis #Porter #Good #Pretti All at the feet of Palantir. Peter #Thiel is a #murderer. He uses somebody else's gun.

    Palantir beats Wall Street exp...

  25. Also worth noting with special outrage that the report says they cannot say whether the agents who shot #Pretti had #bodycams when witness videos validated by @Bellingcat and other clearly show that numerous agents on the scene did in fact have body cams.

    At least come up with an interesting lie!

  26. This just seems mindbogglingly insulting. Certain members of #Congress are statutorily required to report on any death in custody.

  31. UPDATE: Despite rhetoric, feds continue aggressive crackdown in #Minneapolis

    On the ground, little actually changed. Thousands of federal agents continued their aggressive tactics and clashed with citizen observers. On January 30, #Trump returned to his incendiary rhetoric, describing #Pretti, an ICU nurse, as an “agitator” and “insurrectionist.”

    #ICE #iceout

  32. Take a training course on how to document and record ICE.

    On Saturday, federal agents horrifically shot and killed 37-year-old Alex #Pretti, an ICU nurse who cared for veterans, in the Eat Street neighborhood of south Minneapolis after brutally beating him in front of witnesses. Enough is enough. Exercising our constitutional right to document and record #ICE and federal agents is more important than ever.

    This call will give you the tools to exercise your rights in moment when federal agents are terrorizing our communities and using excessive force.

  33. #AlexPretti: Analysing Footage of #Minneapolis #CBP Shooting
    #Pretti collapses onto ground after first shots and agents back away. A second agent (wearing brown beanie hat) then draws his gun and fires at least one shot. This is the fifth shot that is heard. The agent in the black beanie can be seen and heard firing more shots. Shots five through ten all fired at Pretti’s motionless body.

  34. "Trump’s #Minnesota crackdown has proceeded with little regard for the #law, drawing a backlash from local residents who have scrambled to #protest against the massive deployment of federal agents & their violent tactics. Since the deaths of #Good and #Pretti, those #protests have only intensified, and Trump’s response has been to double down. The US attorneys who haven’t quit in protest now have to deal with the #legal fallout."

  35. It took the #VA a week to plan a memorial service for #AlexPretti.

    “VA personnel in the #Minneapolis campus and others who work in other VA medical facilities outside of #Minnesota told Task & Purpose over the last week that #Pretti’s death remains largely unspoken inside the system. They described a widespread feeling that VA leaders, including Secretary Doug Collins, have largely downplayed or ignored Pretti’s death and perhaps even stifled the topic.”
