So he’s doubling down on “give me your money or else”?
First “jets”, then is it “Golden Dome” since the “Board of War Criminals” shakedown was refuted?
Hoekstra’s an idiot and just like Trump, seems to have a very hard time understanding a word he should have learned as a toddler: “no”.
Huh.
…The Minnesota Department of Corrections launched a website its leaders said was dedicated to combatting #DHS #misinformation after #AlexPretti was killed. The site includes examples where MN ofcls honored federal requests to hold people under deportation orders to refute the #Trump admin claim that those people are routinely allowed to go free.

#PamBondi’s request was part of a nearly yearlong fight in which the #Trump admin has sought #voters’ private data from #states across the country. Numerous states, including #Minnesota, have not complied, & the #DOJ has sued them.

The #Trump Admin Is Demanding Minnesota’s #Voter Rolls
The #DOJ has urged #Minnesota to hand over voters’ private data. It is part of a national push that has raised concerns about the Trump admin’s motives.

Judge Kate Menendez turned to #Trump’s post on Truth Social stating, “GREAT PEOPLE OF MINNESOTA, THE DAY OF RECKONING & RETRIBUTION IS COMING.”
“What do I do with that?” she asked.
“I don’t think that would negate the fact that there is legitimate law enforcement activity going on in #Minnesota,” said #DOJ attorney Brantley Mayers.

The office of #KeithEllison, the #Minnesota AG, is asking a judge to stop the surge of federal# immigration agents in the state. Later today, #federal officials will argue against a lawsuit brought by the MN Bureau of Criminal Apprehension [#BCA] following the killing of #AlexPretti by federal agents.

#HumanGarbage #Bovino suggests #AlexPretti was a victim of "heated rhetoric" criticizing #ICE
#CBP Commander-at-Large #GregBovino suggested Sunday that Pretti was a victim of “heated rhetoric,” arguing that political criticism of federal #immigration agents may have helped place Pretti in a deadly confrontation — despite offering no evidence that Pretti assaulted or threatened officers.

Whatever the intent of this formulation, #Hegseth thinks #ICE is “saving the country,” apparently from the elected leaders of #Minnesota & the “lunatics” in the street. (These “lunatics” are also known as “American citizens.”)
Hegseth has neither the #legal #authority nor the right—& certainly not the #moral standing—to make such claims.

#Minneapolis police say #AlexPretti had a firearms permit, & that open carry is legal in the state for permit holders. Video of the incident shows him holding a phone, not a gun. Officers do not seem to have realized he was armed until after they pinned him to the ground, & the video does not show them opening fire until *after* they have taken away his pistol.

Secy of #DHS #KristiNoem claimed that the victim walked up to the agents with the intent to slay several of them. White House Deputy Chief of Staff #StephenMiller posted on X that an “assassin tried to murder federal agents.” Neither of these…correspond with the video evidence.

These agents are now behaving like a roving mob, a riot squad in balaclavas desperately in search of a riot—& for the 2nd time in 17 days, they have killed one of the US citizens protesting their #PoliceState behavior.

Video stills of #CBP #murder of #AlexPretti.
At least 10 shots were fired directly at Pretti despite the fact that he was restrained on the ground by multiple agents, had been disarmed—he never even reached for his weapon, & he wasn’t doing anything illegal to begin with.

"#Federal officials released images of a handgun they said #AlexPretti was carrying."
There were several credible posts showing that exact handgun in social media posts going back years
It apparently was found via a Google Images reverse image search
(No links; this was yesterday afternoon and the posts are buried in the general monsoon)

#ICU #nurse fatally shot by “federal agents” in #Minneapolis cared for #veterans
#AlexPretti, 37, was kind & didn’t often discuss politics, friends & colleagues said.
His family disputes [as do we all with functioning eyes] the #Trump admin’s version of the #shooting.

Took a necessary mental health break, but every news outlet seems to agree with our/my original analysis,
Multiple videos show federal officer disarmed 37-yr-old ICU nurse #AlexPretti before fatally shooting him.
