To be clear: ICE shot and killed a man who was not their target. He had no criminal record, was seeking legal status, & was pushed off the road by unmarked cars.
There’s “no body cam footage”, his family can’t recover his body, and the witnesses in his van have been detained.
this man resembles so many of our fathers, our uncles, not just in appearance and hard work, but in his role as a loving and present father and husband. this hurts so bad. fuck ICE forever
They shot Renee Good in the face.
They kidnapped Liam Ramos.
They just executed a man on the street.
Unmask them. Prosecute them. No more secret police.
An ICE officer pleaded guilty to raping a woman for MONTHS in exchange for allowing her to see her child. He used her daughter as leverage so he could violate her. These are the people the president and his administration are treating like heroes and expecting society to bow down to. These are the kinds of people they’re protecting and calling true patriots.
The only criminals we should be afraid of are the ones in ICE uniforms. Fuck anyone who supports this. I can’t imagine how many other victims there are and what crimes ICE has committed that we’ll never know about. We cannot allow these people to get away with this. Abolish ICE and impeach Trump. This should be on every major news channel and outlet @ABC@CNN@NBCNews@USATODAY@FoxNews@BBC@CBSNews@nytimes@washingtonpost@WSJ@AP
Republicans are going to paint this man as a domestic terrorist. He was a registered nurse with no criminal record. He was an innocent man and dedicated his life to saving others. Every ICE member involved in his murder needs to be charged and sent to prison.
Americans are being killed in the street by their government. Our Constitution is being shredded and our rights are dissolving. Resist.
Senate Dems should block ICE funding this week. Activate the National Guard.
We can and must stop this.
Alex Jeffrey Pretti was an ICU nurse at a VA hospital. His life, through his profession, was dedicated to serving his community and our country.
As so many have now seen on video, his final act before he was killed by federal agents was doing everything in his power to protect his community.
Alex and tens of thousands of Minnesotans have boldly defended their neighbors against the murderous occupation of an American city by the federal government. I am enraged and heartbroken for Alex, his family, Minneapolis, and America.
I just spoke with the White House after another horrific shooting by federal agents this morning. Minnesota has had it. This is sickening.
The President must end this operation. Pull the thousands of violent, untrained officers out of Minnesota. Now.
His name is Alex Jeffrey Pretti. He was 37 years old.
He was a licensed nurse.
He was recording ICE and defending a female protester from their aggression.
And they executed him.
Presidents are not kings.
Presidents are not kings.
Presidents are not kings.
Presidents are not kings.
Presidents are not kings.
Presidents are not kings.
Presidents are not kings.
Presidents are not kings.
BREAKING: The US Marines have detained a US citizen in Los Angeles. This is the first time in known US history that the marines have been used in this way to detain an American without the Insurrection Act being invoked.
The Posse Comitatus Act (1878) Prohibits the use of the U.S. military (Army and Air Force, and by extension Navy and Marines under DoD policy) to enforce domestic laws without explicit Congressional or constitutional authorization.
In other words, Trump is breaking the law once again.
Gwinnett County Police are looking for a couple who reportedly robbed a man at a gas station after setting up a meet to sell him a pair of Balenciaga shoes. https://t.co/2iuZSQisIN
