I don’t think so. I looked into this and many seasoned analysts are saying there’s no gun imprint visible. The agent “removed a gun” when Pretti was on the ground and the video of that is not clear or conclusive on where the gun came from.

I don’t think he had a weapon. They claim they took a Sig Sauer P320 from him which were DHS-issued guns that had been recalled. Meaning they had a surplus of them for planting. If Alex Pretti had a gun of that size holstered, it would have been visible when he standing up and it wasn’t.

Whistleblowers just shared a memo showing DHS instructing ICE to force their way into peoples' houses without a proper warrant. Why is this not on all the networks right now? This is a criminal conspiracy to violate rights under color of law.

They're investigating the victim's wife, the victim's friends, the mayor and the governor too, but no, they're not even going to glance in the direction of the murderer.

This is a moderate position and every single democrat including and especially @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social and @schumer.senate.gov should be shouting it from the rooftops.

Trump's thugs are going hog wild and tossing gas around in one of the busiest commercial districts in Minneapolis, just a mile or so from where I live. Complete insanity. (vid via Ford Fischer on X)

I am, in fact, triggered by someone being murdered by the Gestapo and our government lying about it and celebrating the murder. It’s time for decent people to decide where they stand — with the Gestapo and its supporters, the juvenile shitposting government, or with America.

The President is not supposed to tell the DOJ what to investigate. Remember when you alleged Biden weaponized it?

This is well worth a watch, not just because you can see someone who was on the sidelines quickly become involved and engaged, but because it's another reminder that no one wants these fucking goons in their community.

On the phone with them right now. You can host the armed goons terrorizing our families, or you can host us.

Let us all stand with Chairman Powell.

I assume that we’re just hours away from Scott Jennings going on national TV to try and justify this murder

Evergreen.

Reformed January 6th participant (who refused a pardon): “You can't gaslight me. I was there. I saw the officers being pepper sprayed. I watched one of them fall down and hit his head and his back. So don't be telling me it wasn't violent.”

FIVE YEARS & he has not been held accountable for one of the most disgraceful events in this nation's history. Trying to overturn a fair election in an attempted coup against his own government is the very definition of TREASON. We can never move forward until this is fully adjudicated. #ShameOnUS🇺🇸

How are grown adults talking on the news about TDS? How do they expect anyone to take them seriously? And it’s Trumpers who are America First, so he’s insulting his supporters.

Who the fuck is getting “72 jabs”??

Nixon insisted the bombing of Cambodia was just targeting Viet Cong outposts there and not meant to undermine its government, but the bombings destabilized the Lon Nol government and paved the way for the Khmer Rouge’s killing fields and the massacre of more than a million people.

Have they drafted the statement about Maduro's suicide in his prison cell yet?

I would wager that the actual reason why no prior sitting president has apparently ever taken the Montreal Cognitive Assessment test, is that no prior president or VP since the test's creation in 1996 has ever engaged in behavior that is as suggestive of cognitive impairment as Trump has.

The 21st century axis of evil.

“I’m sure you’re aware of our connections with the Trump Administration,” the North Carolina Republican Party's communications director wrote in an email response to us. “I would strongly suggest dropping this story.” We didn't. #ICYMI, read the story that he wanted dropped:

The New York Times should just rebrand itself as the Upper East Side Co-op Bulletin and Harvard Alumni Rumor Mill.

I’ve seen thousands of posts about welfare fraud from right-wingers on social media, which should be prosecuted if people committed crimes, but zero posts about the dozens of wealthy rich fraudsters who stole billions from thousands of people who have been pardoned by Trump.

This is not how a normal Justice Department talks about an ongoing investigation—or about putative targets and their uncharged conduct.

Dick Grenell and his ilk will defend the right of a homophobic baker to deny service to a gay couple, but they’ll attack a musician who doesn’t want to perform for fascists.

This email from Sharyn Alfonsi to her colleagues after Bari Weiss killed their @60minutes.bsky.social piece on CECOT is powerful and worth a full read. (h/t @yasharali.bsky.social)

If you're a staffer at 60 Minutes who worked on that CECOT segment that got yanked by Bari Weiss at the last minute, figure out a way to leak it. Not saying it's an easy decision or there won't be consequences, but ask yourself why you got into journalism in the first place.

WOW. They're not going to air their special on CECOT. I'd like to know who made this decision, and whether the federal government had a hand in it.

The time to demand Bondi’s resignation or impeachment is NOW. Press them hard, put them on the defensive, and make this a key issue in the midterms. It highlights everything wrong with the GOP — cult like loyalty to Trump, complete lawlessness, elite entitlement, etc.

SANCHEZ: You're talking about the boat strikes. Here, Susie Wiles is talking about essentially regime change. Is that not something that should go through Congress? REP, BEN CLINE: I haven't read this Vanity Fair article you're speaking o SANCHEZ: I bet it's worth your time

ROSEN: Will you commit to opening an investigation into Fox News for deceptively editing a Trump interview to make him look good during a presidential campaign? CARR: No

Marjorie Taylor Greene: "While CNN has been talking about affordability, all of the sudden after Republicans got crushed in that election not too long ago, Fox News is all of the sudden willing to talk about affordability, because it is a crisis. And health insurance is the coming crisis."

Marjorie Taylor Greene: "I think the midterms are gonna be very hard for Republicans. I'm one of the people that's willing to admit the truth and say I don't see Republicans winning the midterms right now, so that doesn't bode well for Mike Johnson."

Over six years ago, I published an 11,000 word article in The Atlantic (gift link below) explaining how Donald Trump was, beyond any question, mentally ill and unfit to hold any office of public trust. He has proven these points virtually every day since. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Why is the man that miraculously regrew an ear having so much trouble with “hand-shaking” injuries?

That's what he said after the Charlie Kirk shooting, right?

If this doesn’t scream 1938 Germany, then nothing at all does.

“Tell your children who the cowards were.”

😲 They’re going to destroy VA healthcare so they can privatize it. wapo.st/4q4Lx58

Trump's best friends in the world are Saudi Arabia and Russia -- the nation where most of the 9/11 terrorists came from and the nation that wants to replicate that act of terrorism against the United States. Meanwhile, he's angrily attacking NATO, an alliance that came to our aid after 9/11/

America ramping up its Cold Civil War looks to be very profitable for the military-policing-of-civilian-populations industry.

Video of U.S. Military Killing Boat Strike Survivors Is Horrifying, Lawmakers Reveal “What I saw in that room is one of the most troubling scenes I’ve ever seen in my time in public service.” theintercept.com/2025/12/04/b...

It's great that reporting on the double tap has spotlighted the abject criminality of this Administration. But don't forget: Venezuela is not waging war on America or Americans, and the men killed were not combatants. The first strike was every bit as illegal as the second.

Lemme see if I can remember from the Biden years what we're supposed to say. Oh yeah: "Watching him sundowning like this, it's clear it's time for him to lay down his burden and get the rest he deserves. How cruel of the people around him to force him to stay in office—it's inhumane." How'd I do?

The fact that TPUSA posted the entirely reasonable comments from the instructor here as coming from the “TRANS PROFESSOR” gives away the game. They’re not defending students, they’re targeting faculty — as always

"If the U.S. military operation is not an armed conflict of any kind, these orders to kill helpless civilians clinging to the wreckage of a vessel our military destroyed would subject everyone from SECDEF down to the individual who pulled the trigger to prosecution under U.S. law for murder."
