This is why it’s so important to see all the video you can before making a judgement (looking at you DHS). Video appears to show the victim trying to protect another person & being pulled down by agents. There needs to be a credible investigation, not one by CBP/ICE www.reddit.com/r/minnesota/...

Post from Pete Buttigieg that reads: If there was ever a moment for libertarians and conservatives to step up and join the rest of us, we’re in it. 

Americans have to unite and stop this descent from a freedom-loving nation into the kind of place where masked, militarized government agents are sent to politically noncompliant areas to roam the streets, terrorize civilians, and deploy violence with impunity.

Every Democratic Senator must vote NO on DHS/ICE funding. Continuing to fund this agency that is terrorizing and murdering our people makes you complicit. They EXECUTED Alex Pretti. Every Senator must draw a line in the stand here.

No agreement on healthcare but the government will temporarily reopen. Wish Dems would have stood their ground. Many millions will now shift to not purchasing any health insurance or signing for high deductible health plans that strain budgets without offering robust coverage.

If Republicans allow the tax credits that help people afford their health care premiums expire, a couple in Ouray would be forced to pay over $1000/ month for health insurance. That is unbelievable. Coloradans cannot afford that. Republicans must negotiate with Democrats to preserve these credits.

We are getting deep into thug government when Trump regulators threaten to pull ABC’s broadcast license over a Kimmel joke, and a major news outlet chooses to “bend the knee.” Whether or not you liked the joke, it was First Amendment protected speech.

Don’t let anyone say otherwise —> the Senate bill that’s being advanced this weekend very clearly will result in significant cuts to Medicaid. Over 70 million Americans rely on this program. Hospitals will close and ERs will serve as desperate last measures. This is the true #MAHA agenda.

Does anyone seriously think we can do this for another 4 years? Blue states should activate their national guard units and not just throw ICE out of their respective states, but detain them, make their identities public and take legal action against them. Impersonating an officer is a crime.
