@jenchewlichaeng@mrport1 thanks. i dont like the “enhanced” version because it creates things that aren’t there out of the video’s original fuzzy quality: the missing head of agent in the foreground, the leg turned into an rifle butt, the object in pretti’s hand becoming an odd shape, etc.
NEW: Republican Chris Madel announced he’s ending his run for Minnesota governor, saying he cannot support the national GOP’s “stated retribution on the citizens of our state, nor can I count myself a member of a party that would do so.”
“United States citizens, particularly those of color, live in fear. United States citizens are carrying papers to prove their citizenship. That’s wrong,” Madel said.
Pam Bondi sent a letter to Minnesota officials saying hand over the voter rolls, or ICE won’t back off.
That’s a shakedown. They’re using fear to get their hands on voter information. In America, you don’t get to strong-arm your way into our elections.

Begging you not to let Wael’s story get lost amidst all the horrors.
He was a 30 year old disabled man. His dad was his full time caregiver.
ICE took him away.
Wael said it would kill him. He said the fear was “real & immediate”.
He died last week. ICE killed Wael.
Greg Bovino is openly threatening free speech.
He says if you call federal agents “kidnappers” or “Gestapo,” there will be “consequences.”
That’s intimidation.

🚨BREAKING: ICE agents are now in CHURCH PARKING LOTS, illegally stopping and demanding proof of citizenship from U.S. citizen families, in Brooklyn Park, Minnesota.
In the video, a citizen notices ICE agents patrolling a church parking lot.
When the agents see a family getting out of their car, on their way into church, they cut through the grass and pull up directly next to them.
An ICE agent immediately demands ID.
The family shows their passports and explains to the agent, yes, they are U.S. citizens.
The observer calls the agents out, telling him they should be ashamed for stopping families on church property.
The agent responds by trying to silence the legal observer, ordering him to “get in his car” and stop obstructing.
The legal observer replies, “Why? I’m in a church parking lot. How about you leave.”
And the agents then get in their car and drive away.
ICE agents are illegally stopping and harassing people, on church property, making them feel unsafe to attend church and freely practice their religion.
And yet, not one Republican is outraged.
Which is surprising since last week Republicans screamed about protesters entering a church, claiming it violated the right to “practice religion freely.”
But now, FEDERAL AGENTS are harassing families at church, demanding proof of citizenship, intimidating U.S. citizens from feeling safe to practice religion freely…
and those same people say nothing.
Trump stripped protections from churches, explicitly giving ICE permission to operate on church property, so FEDERAL AGENTS could do exactly what Republicans lost their minds about…
Infringe on religious freedom, and terrorize families where they’re supposed to feel safest.
You can’t claim to support religious liberty while backing a government that is openly attacking it.
I love the little language games Democrats play. “Medicare for all…who want it” “We must abolish (trump’s) ICE”. They love taking some of that concentrated leftist messaging and pouring water on it so it’s not too strong.
It's really incredible how docile the american people are, even under the threat of full blown fascism and at gun point, the most the vast majority of the population will do is march with signs
