  • A New Clip of the Minneapolis ICE Killing Was Leaked to a Site Sympathetic to Derek Chauvin
    A video reportedly filmed by the federal agent who shot and killed Renée Nicole Good in Minneapolis earlier this week was released on Friday by a conservative Minnesota outlet whose most prominent reporter is married to the city’s former police union head. Alpha News—notable in part for its sympathetic coverage of Derek Chauvin, the Minneapolis police officer convicted in 2021 of murdering George Floyd—has since Wednesday published a flurry of articles including “ICE shooting in Minneapolis: Minnesota attorney explains how presumed innocence has been ignored again” and “REPORT: Woman killed by ICE agent was member of ‘ICE Watch’ group working to disrupt immigration arrests.” Conservative commentators have seized on the 47-second clip to argue that it exculpates Ross and shows Good driving towards him. 100 percent confirms they were left wing agitators intentionally trying to provoke an altercation with law enforcement, and then they drove right at him.… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.

The places targeted by the president tend to become temporary sites of protest—and produce fodder for his meme-driven administration’s social-media channels. The relentless pressure on ICE to ramp up deportations has left officers on edge. The neighborhoods they’re targeting are on edge too.  Activists have marched in the streets and demonstrated outside federal buildings. But their most effective form of disruption—putting them on the front lines—has been car-powered.In Los Angeles, Washington, and especially Chicago, loose networks of neighborhood-watch groups have organized to detect federal immigration officers and warn people about their presence. They send out online notices and alerts; in the streets, they trail federal vehicles, honking horns and blowing whistles to form a rolling alarm system.

In other words, what Congress deems the federal government should spend. There were calls from the left to hold up funding for the Pentagon or State Department after the U.S. strike in Venezuela.
