Minnesota - what happens when you hitch your bandwagon to a train that derails? The wheels are coming off this thing in real time and it’s all saved on the internet for posterity.
@TheBrancaShow The ICE officer who shot him will absolutely be convicted of murder - unless the feds refuse to cooperate and they impede an active state investigation. If that happens, I think the state courts will approve warrants for each federal officer who obstructs the legal process.
@GuntherEagleman This was a homicide. The shooters and his accomplices will not escape justice. They will be held accountable by Minneapolis police and county prosecutors.
@votegriffin This is one of the problems with too many folks on the modern left - they think performative acts and hero complexes solve complex social problems. Thankfully there are still progressives who spend more time working than they do tweeting.
@CheyCab@johnerent@WedgeLIVE This was not that much a surprise. Complaints against Frey were the same ones repeated by a vocal minority since the 2021 election when he ran the table. And Carter benefitted from a delicate immunity that fractured as soon as a credible candidate announced. Perception ≠ reality
@LibertyUSA37@Satyrnine Most American school children learn the “Nuremberg defense” is shameful. And @Satyrnine is absolutely correct. As an enlisted man and as an officer, I took an oath “to the Constitution and to the people of the United States,” not to a man or a commander. This is fundamental.
@repmattdean He is learning the difference between imagining absolute power and realizing qualified support. A tough lesson for any young person in politics. You're seeing it unfold nationally and at the local level.
