“Our base is generally not wealthy and they’re not doing well. They’re struggling. If you take away immigration — if they don’t believe he means it — holy cow, that’s not good.” I.e., many in our base are uneducated and economically struggling. Alll they have going for them is their need to feel superior to someone different from (and, usually, darker than) themselves. #Trump #MAGA #immigrants #ICE #violence #cruelty #ReneeGood #AlexPretti #murder #execution #deportations #WhiteSupremacy /2

“The murder of Renee Good and the murder of Alex Pretti broke through in a way that few, if any, other stories of the Trump era have broken through. They broke through the information bubbles and were disseminated – whether it’s Reddit or websites devoted to rock climbing – and people were talking about it." ~Charlie Sykes quoted by David Smith #Trump #ReneeGood #AlexPretti #ICE #murder #execution #media #resistance #iphone #video #lies #misinformation /1 https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/jan/31/trump-facts-ice-lies-alex-pretti-killing

"Trump has employed the chaos strategy for years, doing so many awful things all at once so his political opponents can’t craft a message to address it all or successfully organize to stop his obvious wrongs. But it’s especially terrifying now, as the strategy is an effort to get away with literal murder, financial heist, and election rigging." #DonLemon #GeorgiaFort #Trump #ReneeGood #AlexPretti #ICE #murder #execution #media #journalists #FirstAmendment #WhiteSupremacy /14

"As Americans watch in horror as immigration goons are jailing innocent kids and killing U.S. citizens who dare to exercise their constitutional rights, President Donald Trump is flooding the zone with so much chaotic and horrific news in an effort to overwhelm the public." ~ Emily Singer #DonLemon #GeorgiaFort #Trump #ReneeGood #AlexPretti #ICE #murder #execution #media #journalists #FirstAmendment #WhiteSupremacy /13 https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2026/1/30/2366304/-Trump-floods-the-zone-with-chaos-to-get-away-with-murder-literally

"The administration is appealing to the MAGA racist and Christian nationalist base by demonstrating that it is willing to violate the Constitution to impose MAGA’s ideology on the nation. But it is also apparently trying to signal to white American citizens that they should think they are safe from an authoritarian administration: its top victims remain Black Americans and people of color." #DonLemon #GeorgiaFort #Trump #ReneeGood #AlexPretti #ICE #CBP #murder #execution #WhiteSupremacy /5

"It is a dramatic assault on the First Amendment to the Constitution, which prohibits the government from curtailing the freedom of the press. It is also a transparent attempt to change the popular narrative." #DonLemon #GeorgiaFort #Trump #ReneeGood #AlexPretti #ICE #CBP #murder #execution #media #journalists #FirstAmendment #WhiteSupremacy /4

"At its most basic level, the attack on two independent journalists is undoubtedly designed to intimidate other independent news producers from covering the Trump administration, particularly the violence of ICE and Border Patrol agents." #DonLemon #GeorgiaFort #Trump #ReneeGood #AlexPretti #ICE #CBP #murder #execution #media #journalists #FirstAmendment #WhiteSupremacy /3

"The arrests of Lemon and Fort are windows into the deep concern of administration officials about how dramatically Americans have turned against ICE and the Trump administration." #DonLemon #GeorgiaFort #Trump #ReneeGood #AlexPretti #ICE #CBP #murder #execution #media #journalists #FirstAmendment #WhiteSupremacy /2

"As the American people continue to express their fury over the violence of federal agents in Minneapolis and elsewhere, officials from the Trump administration today tried to shift the public narrative to shore up their softening base and silence their opponents." ~ Heather Cox Richardson #DonLemon #GeorgiaFort #Trump #ReneeGood #AlexPretti #ICE #murder #execution #media #journalists #FirstAmendment #WhiteSupremacy /1 https://heathercoxrichardson.substack.com/p/january-30-2026

"Any one of those people who were filming could have ended up like [Alex Pretti]. And they kept their cameras up anyway. They didn’t run away because, like him, they were trying to protect their neighbors. And I just think that is tremendously courageous and admirable." ~ Adam Serwer #AlexPretti #ReneeGood #Trump #murder #execution #Minnesota #solidarity #resistance #courage #compassion /2 https://newrepublic.com/article/205788/trump-advisers-quietly-turn-stephen-miller-brutal-ice-poll-hits?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=tnr_daily

Bruce Springsteen has just released a song paying tribute to Minneapolis and the courage of its people: "Oh our Minneapolis, I hear your voice Singing through the bloody mist Here in our home they killed and roamed In the winter of ’26 We’ll take our stand for this land And the stranger in our midst We’ll remember the names of those who died On the streets of Minneapolis." #AlexPretti #ReneeGood #Trump #murder #execution #BruceSpringsteen /1 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wWKSoxG1K7w&t=3s

David Kurtz warns us not to fall for Trump regime claims, echoed by compliant media, that DHS are probing Pretti's murder: "As MSNow has since confirmed, the Trump DOJ has decided not to open a civil rights investigation into the Pretti shooting, the same decision it made in the fatal ICE shooting of Renee Good." #AlexPretti #ReneeGood #Trump #ICE #murder #execution #Minnesota #polls #ApprovalRating #AbolishIce /19 https://morningmemo.talkingpointsmemo.com/p/dont-fall-for-the-bogus-claims-that

"In law enforcement departments across the country, badge numbers are visible on uniforms precisely so that when force is used, especially lethal force, the public can know who was involved. That transparency is not a nicety. It is a safeguard." #AlexPretti #Trump #KristiNoem #StephenMiller #CBP #ICE #murder #execution #accountability /18

"In Minneapolis, we watched a man die in front of the world, and yet we still do not know who pulled the trigger. Not by name. Not by badge. Not by face. Not by the accountability that is supposed to define a democratic society." ~ Dina Doll #AlexPretti #Trump #KristiNoem #StephenMiller #CBP #ICE #murder #execution #accountability /17 https://www.meidasplus.com/p/release-their-names

"As a student of public opinion, I see these events as constituting a classic 'tipping point' in how voters see immigration — and how they evaluate their leaders on the issue." #AlexPretti #ReneeGood #Trump #ICE #murder #execution #Minnesota #polls #ApprovalRating #AbolishIce /15

"The killing by federal agents of two Americans in Minneapolis this month — Renee Good on Jan. 7, 2026, and Alex Pretti on Jan. 24 — has created a backlash to the administration’s policy of mass deportations and 'immigration enforcement' that is causing voters (in all parties) to move against the president’s agenda." ~ G.

"In social media spaces devoted to everything from knitting to football, conversations have been taken over by outrage at ICE. Yet still, Republicans don’t quite understand how this happened." #AlexPretti #Trump #ICE #murder #execution #Minnesota #polls #ApprovalRating #AbolishIce /13

"A plurality of Americans now want to abolish ICE, a position that before this year was considered a crazy lefty idea no smart Democrat would want to associate themselves with. Both privately and publicly, Republicans have been telling Trump that he’s losing the public relations battle over Minneapolis." ~ Paul Waldman #AlexPretti #Trump #ICE #murder #execution #Minnesota #polls #ApprovalRating #AbolishIce /12 https://paulwaldman.substack.com/p/what-trump-and-republicans-never

"At least 32 people died in ICE custody in 2025. ICE facilities across the country have faced allegations from human rights groups, immigration lawyers and lawmakers about overcrowding and poor conditions, such as rotten food, which the agency has denied." ~ Janelle Griffith #Trump #ICE #DHS #violence #surveillance #murder #execution /3 https://people.com/deaths-ice-custody-last-year-as-fatal-shootings-spur-outrage-11890261

“DHS officers have fired shots during enforcement arrests or at people protesting their operations 16 times since July, and as in the recent shootings in Minneapolis, in each case the Trump admin has publicly declared their actions justified before waiting for investigations to be completed." ~ Ron Filipkowski quoting Washington Post #Trump #ICE #DHS #violence #surveillance #murder #execution /1 https://www.meidasplus.com/p/today-in-politics-bulletin-295-12726
