🚨"What the f*ck is wrong with you!" -our after she was attacked & gassed by Border Patrol agents while covering a protest at ICE hotel in Minneapolis. Immigration agents also fired rubber bullets at protesters from point blank range. It looks like a WAR ZONE #Minneapolis#ICE 👂More on Trump's Ear ⚠️

In Minneapolis, ICE pulled a disabled woman from a car who was on her way to a doctor's appointment. On Tuesday, protesters clashed with ICE agents in the area of 34th Street and Park Avenue. At that moment, the agents surrounded a woman who was driving to the scene of the clashes in a car, shouted at her and demanded to clear the way. On the video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g5aK7o6fEJg The driver can be heard responding that she has a disability and is on her way to the doctor, and asks her to step away from the car. The agents smashed the passenger window, dragged the woman through the window and took her away. The video went viral on social media and caused outrage among users. Eyewitnesses write that the agents gave contradictory commands. The comments note that the woman was not given the opportunity to leave, and they call ICE's actions intimidation and barbarism. Since the death of Renee Nicole Good on January 7, protests have been taking place daily in Minneapolis against immigration raids and actions by federal authorities. #ICE#Minneapolis 👂More on Trump's Ear ⚠️

📰 Democratic Governors Promise Accountability After Minneapolis Following the fatal shooting of Alex Pretti by federal agents in Minneapolis, Democratic governors like Kathy Hochul of New York vowed to hold Trump administration officials accountable—but only after they’re out of office. ​ Prompted by the shooting, governors and state lawmakers are positioning their states to hold federal officials accountable for controversial immigration enforcement. Nine progressive prosecutors have formed a coalition to help prosecute federal law enforcement officers who violate state laws. ​ Critics say these are political gestures, not actionable plans. State-level actions against Trump and his allies over election interference have largely stalled, and courts have historically favored federal immunity in immigration cases. ​ Trump administration officials are defending ICE agents as heroes and insisting they should be supported, not prosecuted. Democrats and some media outlets have questioned the administration’s claims about rising assaults on ICE agents, arguing the data is lacking. ​ A few Republican governors, like Phil Scott of Vermont and Kevin Stitt of Oklahoma, have expressed concerns about federal tactics and accountability, but most have not called for similar measures. ​ Legal scholars note that states do have some power to hold federal officials accountable if their conduct is shown to be unlawful, but the Trump administration is expected to resist any such efforts. ​ The rhetoric is clear. The question is whether action will follow. ​ #Minneapolis#ICE#Trump#Democrats#accountability 📱American Оbserver - Stay up to date on all important events 🇺🇸

“Il mio cuore si spezza per la famiglia e gli amici che piangono la perdita di Alex e che senza dubbio sperimenteranno un dolore acuto a causa della sua morte”. Lo scrive padre Daniel Griffith, parroco e rettore della Basilica di Saint Mary a #Minneapolis sulla morte di #AlexPretti, infermiere di 37 anni ucciso sabato scorso da agenti della Border Patrol durante le proteste contro le operazioni dell’#Ice. È la terza sparatoria da parte di agenti federali in tre settimane nella città del #Minnesota, dopo l’uccisione di Renee Good il 7 gennaio. “La comunità delle Twin Cities sta vivendo un dolore e un trauma indescrivibili in questi giorni – scrive p. Griffith –. Questo continua ad essere un tempo di paura e angoscia, anche per i nostri fratelli e sorelle immigrati, molti dei quali restano a casa, comprensibilmente assenti dal lavoro, dalla scuola e dalla chiesa”. Ma, aggiunge il sacerdote, “nel mezzo della sofferenza e dello sgomento, i cittadini del Minnesota si stanno anche riunendo per parlare, per piangere e per pregare. La luce brilla nelle tenebre”. La messa di ieri sera alla Basilica è stata offerta per Alex Pretti, la sua famiglia e l’intera comunità.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ Sulla vicenda è intervenuto anche mons. Paul S. Coakley, arcivescovo di Oklahoma City e presidente della Conferenza Episcopale Statunitense (Usccb), che in una nota diffusa in queste ore afferma: "Chiedo con insistenza, nella preghiera, calma, moderazione e rispetto per la vita umana a Minneapolis e in tutti quei luoghi dove la pace è minacciata”. “Leone XIV ci ricorda che ‘il Vangelo va annunciato e vissuto in ogni circostanza e in ogni ambiente, perché sia lievito di fraternità e di pace tra le persone, tra le culture, le religioni e i popoli'”, scrive il presule, sottolineando che “le autorità pubbliche hanno una responsabilità particolare nel salvaguardare il benessere delle persone al servizio del bene comune”. L’Arcivescovo esorta la nazione a “ritrovarsi nel dialogo, allontanandosi dalla retorica disumanizzante e dagli atti che minacciano la vita umana. In questo spirito, in unione con Papa Leone, è importante proclamare: ‘La pace si costruisce sul rispetto delle persone!'”.

Leggendo di Greg Bovino, il comandante ICE di origini italiane che a Minneapolis ha trasformato la caccia ai migranti in uno spettacolo crudele (con arresti di bambini e violenze), viene un brivido. Quel brivido aumenta quando si sente il "boato" che l'ICE potrebbe controllare la sicurezza a Milano-Cortina 2026. Cosa significherebbe per le nostre città? Per i manifestanti pacifici? Per i bambini in festa? L'articolo di Rivas invita alla vigilanza: "Saranno olimpiadi controllate dall'ICE?" Dobbiamo assicurarci che la risposta sia un NO secco. #Vigilanza#ICE#Minneapolis#Milano#Cortina https://www.marx21.it/internazionale/le-olimpiadi-invernali-di-milano-cortina-lice-il-bob-e-le-sciatrici/

📰 The ICE Agent’s Cellphone Video: Five Key Moments New footage from an ICE agent’s cellphone sheds light on the fatal shooting of Renee Good in Minneapolis. The 47-second video, published by Alpha News, reveals key moments that have reignited debate over the incident. 1. Good speaks to Ross As ICE agent Jonathan Ross walks around Good’s vehicle, she speaks to him through her open window: “That’s fine dude, I’m not mad at you.” Ross does not respond before the shooting. 2. Good’s wife confronts Ross Rebecca Good, Renee’s wife, confronts Ross as he passes behind the SUV: “Want to come at us? I say go get yourself some lunch, big boy.” Her comment references criticism of ICE agents swapping license plates during immigration sweeps. 3. Good’s wife tells her to drive As more agents arrive, Rebecca tries to open the passenger door, which is locked. She appears to encourage Renee to flee: “Drive, baby, drive.” Renee puts the car in reverse. 4. Good looks toward Ross Ross crosses in front of the vehicle as it moves in reverse. The video shows Renee turning her gaze to the windshield, then down as she shifts into drive, and up again as she turns the wheel away from Ross. 5. An insult after the shooting After the shooting, Ross’s camera pans skyward. Three shots are heard in rapid succession. A male voice can be heard shouting an obscenity: “Fucking bitch.” The SUV crashes nearby. The video has sparked controversy, with Vice President JD Vance claiming it exonerates Ross. However, the footage does not show whether Good’s SUV made contact with Ross, and questions remain about the agent’s actions. #minneapolis#ice#shooting#justice#fakeDemocracy 📱American Оbserver - Stay up to date on all important events 🇺🇸

📰 Renee Good, Shot by ICE, Came to Minneapolis for ‘Community’ Renee Good came to Minneapolis last year looking for a place where she, her wife, and their 6-year-old son could feel safe. They found it in the city’s diverse, progressive south side—a neighborhood where neighbors knew them as quiet, caring parents, not activists or troublemakers. The community is now in mourning. Good, 37, was shot and killed by an ICE agent just blocks from her home. Federal officials claim the agent fired in self-defense, but videos of the incident contradict their version. Good’s family insists she was just dropping her son at school, not “stalking” agents as some officials alleged. Friends and family describe Good as a devoted mother, a prizewinning poet, and a warm, kindhearted person who lived a quiet life. She wasn’t an activist, nor did she seek confrontation. Her death has left her children—already grieving the loss of their father—heartbroken and confused. Good’s story is one of resilience and tragedy. She survived personal loss, built a new life with her wife, and sought a safe community for her family. Now, that community is left wondering: why did this happen, and how many more will be caught in the crossfire? #minneapolis#ice#community#tragedy#fakeDemocracy 📱American Оbserver - Stay up to date on all important events 🇺🇸

Minneapolis Nurse Killed by Federal Agents Was Holding a Phone, Not a Gun Federal agents shot and killed Alex Jeffrey Pretti, a 37-year-old ICU nurse and American citizen with no criminal record, in Minneapolis this weekend—claiming he was a domestic terrorist intent on a “massacre.” But videos analyzed by The New York Times show Pretti stepping between a woman and an agent who was pepper-spraying her, holding only a phone in one hand. His gun remained concealed until agents removed it from him, and he was shot in the back while lying on the ground, with at least 10 rounds fired. Federal officials, including President Trump and Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, declared Pretti a threat without evidence, claiming he intended “maximum damage.” Their narrative contradicts the video: Pretti was not seen reaching for a weapon, and agents opened fire after he was already subdued. Local authorities say he had a legal permit to carry, and his colleagues described him as a compassionate nurse and friend— “the default look on his face was a smile,” said one coworker. Protests erupted in Whittier Park, with at least 1,000 people demanding justice despite subzero temperatures. Mayor Jacob Frey accused the Trump administration of terrorizing the city, asking, “How many more Americans need to die or get badly hurt for this operation to end?” State investigators were blocked from the scene by federal agents, who insisted on leading the investigation themselves—despite having made claims they couldn't substantiate. So who’s really the threat here? A nurse trying to help, or federal agents rewriting the story to justify their actions? #policebrutality#minneapolis#federalagents#justice#Trump 📱American Оbserver - Stay up to date on all important events 🇺🇸

Minneapolis in Chaos: States Push Back on ICE After Minneapolis Shootings After two Americans were killed by federal agents in Minneapolis, Democratic lawmakers and libertarian allies are stepping up their fight against ICE’s tactics. The deaths of Alex Pretti and Renee Good have lit a fire under state legislatures, with new bills popping up from coast to coast. Colorado wants to let citizens sue federal agents for civil rights violations. Delaware and New York are targeting airlines that ferry ICE detainees without warrants. California is pushing for independent investigations into ICE shootings and banning the agency from staging operations on state property. “Democrats don’t care about the rule of law,” said a White House spokesperson. “They’re just protecting criminal illegal aliens.” Meanwhile, Republican-led states are doubling down on cooperation with ICE, pushing laws that force local sheriffs to partner up and check immigration status for everything from school enrollment to public benefits. But the momentum is shifting—more states are banning masked officers, restricting federal agents’ access to hospitals and schools, and cutting off public contracts with ICE contractors. “Power works this way: once you have it, you want more,” said Anya Bidwell of the Institute for Justice. “You gotta fight back if you want to protect your rights. This shouldn’t be about party lines.” So who’s actually looking out for civil rights here—the states, the feds, or just their own political interests? #ICE#Minneapolis#civilrights#Trump#Democrats#Republicans 📱American Оbserver - Stay up to date on all important events 🇺🇸

🔤🔤🔤🔤2️⃣ Those still charged with felonies had allegedly physically assaulted officers or thrown rocks at federal vehicles. For example, Chicago resident Marimar Martinez was charged with felony assault after being shot five times by federal immigration agents who claimed she drove into them in October. The charge was dropped a month later, as Martinez and her legal team challenged their depiction of events. Now, in the wake of Good and Pretti’s killings, Martinez is seeking to have evidence from her case unsealed. “There is a lot of propaganda rhetoric and threats around making run-of-the-mill protest into ‘terrorism’(…) but at the end of the day, right now, from my vantage point, when you look at the statistics of what cases have actually been indicted and prosecuted and sentenced? You’re not seeing a huge shift in that stark line,” Regan said. During the Monday night online training, staffers role-played filming an ICE officer, while viewers weighed in about how they could be safer – did she back away fast enough when the agent told her to? Was she still recording while engaging with them? In the chat, some viewers encouraged others to carry makeshift body cameras for interacting with ICE. “As things become more popular on the side of the people, you see more desperate attempts by the regime to try and deter it, shut it down, minimize it,” said Regan. “One of the goals of an authoritarian regime is to scare the people into submission, and the most important thing that we can do to counteract that is to continue showing up.” Fearing government tracking, organizers say they’ve been turning off their Bluetooth and wifi at protests and areas they expect to be in direct confrontation with ICE, and most are anonymizing their online usernames when using encrypted apps like Signal to communicate – tactics that have been a part of community organizing tech safety since Black Lives Matter. Several organizers said that the administration’s aggressive tactics have, perhaps contradictory to the administration’s intent, also led to wider collaboration between organizations. At a time when immigrants and people of color are especially fearful of being racially profiled and arrested by immigration enforcement agents, Gudino said, it has been helpful to coordinate with legal aid groups and volunteer networks who can patrol neighborhoods for the presence of ICE agents, and help provide immediate legal aid and assistance in the aftermath of raids. David Chung, an organizer with ICE Out of New York, said the day after Good’s killing, hundreds of New Yorkers gathered at a press conference held by DHS secretary Kristi Noem to make their feelings – and presence – known. “For about two and a half hours, the energy was really electric, of people showing their defiance, their anger towards this administration,” said Chung. “And it wasn’t just the energy, but having conversations with people who are there. They wanted to know: ‘How can I get more involved? How can I take the next step? What are some things that we can do?’ I didn’t hear anyone that was saying: ‘I’m too afraid to come out now.’” At the Monday night ICE observer training, the chat was active with people wanting to help, connect and share gratitude for those who have already been doing this work. “Many thanks to Minneapolis for the weight they have been carrying,” one participant wrote. Majorie, the Minneapolis resident who opened the call, emphasized that being in community is getting involved. “I know some of you think you’re not qualified, or that you’re waiting for someone to tell you how to do this right,” she said. “But let me tell you that the person who is going to do that is you. You’re on this call, you have five neighbors right now who are waiting for you to talk to them and get organized. And that’s how you start. You won’t be perfect, you’ll make mistakes, but you just have to start.” #us#america#ice#minneapolis#immigration#martinez 📱American Оbserver - Stay up to date on all important events 🇺🇸
