I just watched the press conference of the parents of Minnesotan Alex Pretti, who was murdered by ICE agents 9 months ago. They are asking for justice and for evidence to be shared. This evidence is being withheld by the United States Department of Justice. Our federal government is not sharing evidence with local law enforcement--whether it's from the Epstein files, or from atrocities committed by federal agents. I know there are people who think this is okay, because they see those being persecuted as foreigners. What they don't see, is that the President of the United States is making deals with and taking orders from foreigners, such as the leaders of Russia and Israel. We now live in "that country," where people can be murdered in the street or "disappeared," and sent away to prisons that are sometimes in foreign countries. This should terrify every United States citizen. This is not what the United States is supposed to be. Everyone needs to get out and vote to change this horror. The United States has not always been perfect, and now it is severely broken. But perhaps we can rebuild it to be better, and to be something that we can all be proud of again.
