There Is No Compromise With State Terror [View all]

Julie Roginsky

An open letter to every Democratic elected official who still believes there is such a thing as working with a regime that murders with impunity and threatens dissent with the language of terror:

The moment has already passed. You are now governing in arrears.

A man is dead in Minneapolis. Alex Pretti, an ICU nurse and an American citizen, was executed by federal immigration agents operating like an occupying force in an American city. This is not a “tragic accident” and the ICE agents who murdered him are not “law enforcement officers.” They are terrorists. This is the predictable outcome of an agency designed to operate without accountability, armed with military equipment, shielded by impunity, and unleashed for political terror.

While Pretti’s blood was still warm on the pavement, Stephen Miller branded anyone who opposes this administration a domestic terrorist and insurrectionist.
