BREAKING: A video has leaked from an immigration detention center believed to be at 31 Hopkins Plaza, in Baltimore Maryland where legal immigrants are not even allowed to bath for over 10 days. The person speaking Spanish is saying the following: "Look at how they have us here. Look at how immigration is treating us. There are people here who are legal, there are people who are not legal, there are people who are losing their families. They are kidnapping us. They have us in a warehouse here in Baltimore. They beat us, they beat an older man. We can’t take it anymore. They have kept us here for more than 10 days without bathing and enduring hunger.”

BREAKING: Scott Bessent suggests that Alex Pretti had it coming because he brought a gun to the protest in Minneapolis. It is stunning to see Trump officials do a complete 180 on the Second Amendment when it no longer fits their narrative.

BREAKING: A letter from Alex Pretti’s Final Nursing Student: “I was Alex Pretti’s final nursing student. He was my friend and my nursing mentor. For the past four months, I stood shoulder to shoulder with him during my capstone preceptorship at the Minneapolis VA Hospital. There he trained me to care for the sickest of the sick as an ICU nurse. He taught me how to care for arterial and central lines, the intricacies of managing multiple IVs filled with lifesaving solutions, and how to watch over every heartbeat, every breath, and every flicker of life, ready to act the moment they wavered. Techniques intended to heal. Alex carried patience, compassion and calm as a steady light within him. Even at the very end, that light was there. I recognized his familiar stillness and signature calm composure shining through during those unbearable final moments captured on camera. It does not surprise me that his final words were, “Are you okay?” Caring for people was at the core of who he was. He was incapable of causing harm. He lived a life of healing, and he lived it well. Alex believed strongly in the Second Amendment and in the rights rooted in our Constitution and its amendments. He spoke out for justice and peace whenever he could, not only out of obligation, but out of a belief that we are more connected than divided, and that communication would bring us together. I want his family to know his legacy lives on. I am a better nurse because of the wisdom and skills he instilled in me. I carry his light with me into every room, letting it guide and steady my hands as I heal and care for those in need. Please honor my friend by standing up for peace, preferably with a cup of black coffee in hand and a couple of pieces of candy in your pocket, just as he would. He would remind you that caring for others is hard work, and we must do whatever it takes to get through the long shifts. Step outside with your dog, breathe in the world, hike or bike as he loved to do, and let yourself find peace in the quiet moments within nature. Stand up for justice and speak with those whose views differ from your own. Hold your beliefs with strength, but always extend love outward, even in the face of adversity. Take one step, no matter how small, to help heal our world. Through these acts, carry his light forward in his name. Let his legacy continue to heal.”

The blame for this lies as the feet of your so called leader. A man who believes NATO troops, ‘stayed a little back from the front lines’; a man who is supporting, excusing and allowing US citizens to be executed for saying ‘No’ to fascism, who bends the law to suit his needs.
Bill Madden@maddenifico

We're used to seeing images like this of Nazi Germany. This is what an execution looks like. It's an image that will haunt America for years to come. Alex Pretti was an ICU Nurse whose life was dedicated to saving lives. Under the fascist authoritarian Trump regime, in the eyes of the world, America has become the monster it used to fight against.

Damaan, AKA 'Philly's Finest!'
This photo captures the moment that ICE became murderous, unlawful killers who answers to no one but Donald Trump. Don't let the importance of this image fade from your conscience! A line was drawn that cannot be erased. Silence is acceptance. I will not be silent! Will you? 🤔

We stayed a little back. A little off the frontlines. My 24-year-old lieutenant was killed. Our female medic lost her leg. Another buddy lost his eye. My corporal was seriously wounded in his leg. Our engineer lost his hearing. My sergeant lost hearing in one ear and suffered multiple shrapnel wounds. I myself was seriously wounded in my leg. In the end, we lost five men during our mission that only lasted 4,5 months. Fortunately, we stayed a little back. A little off the frontlines. Can you imagine what would have happened if we had actually been on the frontlines.

Brian Crowley was one of the most positive, energetic, competitive and decent people I’ve known in politics and in life! We were different parties but good friends. So much respect, love and sympathy to his family and friends. RIP rte.ie/news/politics/…

Not sure if the typically myopic US media has quite clocked what an angry shitstorm President Trump has stirred up abroad with his callous, ungrateful, inaccurate gibe about America’s NATO allies staying away from the Afghan frontline. He’s managed to unite pretty much everybody against him, even his hitherto supporters on the populist right. Even Keir Starmer!

Liam Ramos is just a baby. He should be at home with his family, not used as bait by ICE and held in a Texas detention center. I am outraged, and you should be too.

Trump on NATO: "I've always said, will they be there if we ever needed them? That's really the ultimate test. I'm not sure of that. We've never needed them. They'll say they sent some troops to Afghanistan and this or that. And they did. They stayed a little back, off the front lines."

It was with great sadness that I learned of the passing of Brian Crowley. Brian was deeply committed to his community and his country. His loss will be felt deeply by his mother Sally, his family, his friends, and all his former colleagues. Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam
