However, while she denied the state’s request for a preliminary injunction ending the surge, the judge stressed that she was NOT making a final determination on the state’s claims, a step that would take place after further litigation. She also cautioned that she was not deciding whether specific actions taken by #immigration authorities during the surge were #unlawful.

Minnesota officials had said the immigration crackdown was endangering public safety in their state.

#DOJ has opened a #federal #CivilRights probe into the death of #AlexPretti

[but not #ReneeGood. Neither should have been killed, but I’ll say it again, Pretti was a straight man, Good a gay woman. Both shootings were recorded on video by multiple witnesses showing neither was at fault. Yet the #homophobic #misogynistic #Trump admin is only willing to look into the straight man’s #murder.]

Activists are calling for a nationwide shutdown on Friday, advocating “No Work No School, No Shopping” in a #protest against the #Trump admin’s sweeping #immigration crackdowns.

Organizers say Friday’s #GeneralStrike is part of a growing #nonviolent movement to combat #ICE’s aggressive enforcement tactics, which have come under renewed scrutiny following a series of fatal #shootings involving federal agents.

None of which is relevant to #AlexPretti’s straight up #murder by #CBP on Jan 24.

#Trump’s characterization of the Jan 13 video is ridiculous especially given his #Jan6 #pardons.

The agents on Jan 13 didn’t even give Pretti a citation, or get his name. It is highly unlikely that on Jan 24 they knew he was the same person. Anyway it’s completely irrelevant since it was an entirely separate incident.
