Mayhem and Murder In Minneapolis

Well, Donald Fuckin' Trump's goddam gestapo good squad murdered another American citizen. 

Alex Pretti, an ICU nurse, Minneapolis resident and U.S. citizen was shot and killed by ICE agents. 

As per standard operating procedure at the Department of Homeland Security, ICE Barbie Kristi Noem accused the murder victim of being a domestic terrorist who was threatening ICE agents with a gun and in order to defend themselves, they had to shoot him.

Now I've watched enough Law & Order to know that it's hard to make a case of self-defense when the victim is shot in the back.

And yes, there is video evidence that none of what Noem said is at all true.

Here's how the timeline breaks down:

1) Alex Pretti saw a woman protesting ICE had fallen and he went out into the street to assist her.

2) He had a cell phone in one hand, the other was empty.

3) When confronted by ICE, Alex held both arms up, showing the cell phone in one hand and the other hand as empty.

4) Up to 6 ICE agents swarmed Alex and threw him to the ground.

5) Alex did have a gun on his person but he did not have it in his hand. The gun was removed.

And then....

6) Alex Pretti took several gun shots to the back.

A doctor who witnessed this incident said no one was taking any action to resuscitate Alex and the doctor finally convinced ICE to let him help. But by the time he got to Alex, he had bled out. The doctor still attempted CPR but no avail.

And in no time, ICE Barbie bitch Kristi Noem accused Alex of brandishing his gun because he "wanted to massacre law enforcement". 

Stephen Miller oozed out of his coffin in his vampire lair to call Alex a terrorist and an assassin. 

And yes, Li'l Donnie piled on to condemn the murdered American citizen as the problem. 

So as we saw with Renee Good a few weeks ago, we have an American citizen who was NOT engaged in any overtly threatening activity being murdered.  

And once more with video evidence asserting this American citizen was not a threat, the lackeys in Trump's administration are labeling the dead person as a threat, as a terrorist. 

The willingness of Trump's goddam minions to deny the reality we can all fucking see is beyond audacious and reprehensible. 

Before the latest murder by ICE agents this weekend, I wanted to address the case of Nekima Levy Armstrong and what the fucking White House did afterwards. 

Armstrong was arrested with at least two others Thursday for an anti-Immigration and Customs Enforcement protest that allegedly disrupted a service at a church where an ICE official also serves as a pastor.

You might think that an alleged pastor who reportedly preaches the word of Christ AND is also an ICE agents seems like a contradiction.

 And you would be right.  

An ICE agent recording the arrest told Armstrong, “We don’t want to create a false narrative."

Anyway, Armstrong was arrested and below are photos from her arrest.

The photo on the left is what really occured, Armstrong calm and stoic as she was led away in handcuffs.

The photo on the right? 


Remember the ICE agent who said, “We don’t want to create a false narrative."?

Say hello to the "false narrative".

The photo on the right was issued by the White House where an employee working on our taxpayer dime took the time to darken Armstrong's skin and alter her demeanor from calm and stoic to hysterical crying.  

When busted by the press for their fake photo, White House spokesman Kaelan Dorr issued a statement:“Enforcement of the law will continue. The memes will continue. Thank you for your attention to this matter."

Translation: "Fuck you! We can do whatever we want!"


As I've said before, Donald Trump has declared war on America and that is not a metaphor.

There is a literal battlefield where innocent blood is being shed.

And Trump and his lying enablers have declared war on the truth.  

Maybe, just maybe one day we can reach the other side of this madness where we can finally hold these people to account for the damage they have done to this country and for the lives lost in pursuit of their agenda of hate and fear.

If we can survive.
