GovBrief Today #359 - What Happened Today

Alex Pretti was killed by federal agents in Minneapolis this morning.

He was a US citizen, an ICU nurse at the VA, a concerned Minnesotan who could have stayed home and watched it all on television. As with Renee Good 17 days ago, bystander video contradicts the government's account. The footage shows agents pinning Pretti to the ground, then firing multiple shots into his back.

In seventeen days, federal agents have killed two Americans on camera. Minnesota investigators have been locked out of both scenes while DHS rushed to get its story out. Both times, the videos showed that story was a lie.

The Minnesota National Guard has been activated. Minneapolis is filing for a restraining order Monday. A federal magistrate rejected DOJ's demand for arrest warrants against protesters; the appeals court backed him up. Senate Democrats vow to block DHS funding.

Not everyone can protest. Health insurance is tied to your job. Leave isn't guaranteed. The bills don't stop. But go to Mobilize to see what you can do locally. And if you're not motivated yet, ask yourself what's happening to people off camera if they're being killed on camera in front of witnesses.
