- Loevy partner Locke Bowman joins Mark Rivera to discuss the emails where Bovino calls Corey Lewandowski "my boss." They show Bovino was answering to a Trump political operative with no official role in the government and no law enforcement experience, while ignoring his actual chain of command.

- This was truly one of the more comically absurd moments to come out of the CHC v. Noem case. But the underlying lies—that agents are under such constant threat that they can't dare to show their faces, and filming them constitutes assault—are anything but funny.

- Someone should tell the U.S. Attorney General about Amazon. It's not an ideal corporation to support, but it's not a conspiracy, and they have next-day delivery.
- Bondi: "It's extremely organized. The signs they have are all matching, they're well written. And look at what's happening today. How did these people go out & get gas masks? These protesters. Would you know how to walk out on the street and buy a gas mask? Think about that. We're not gonna have it"
- Reposted by Loevy & LoevyAlex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him. White. Hot. Rage.
- Watch Alex Pretti helping someone get away, and then going back to help someone else being attacked, helping her to her feet even as he's being pepper sprayed. And then ask yourself who the real American hero is in this video. Here's a hint: it's not the feds.
- Bovino giving a press conference now. "Turning to Bovino, the Court specifically finds his testimony not credible. Bovino appeared evasive over the three days of his deposition, either providing 'cute' responses to Plaintiffs’ counsel’s questions or outright lying." — Judge Sara L. Ellis
- It looks as if he was walking away, and he went back to help a woman being attacked by the agents. He was a nurse, and he was killed by the state for trying to help someone.
- Reposted by Loevy & LoevyHe was a nurse.
- The Strib has identified him. Alex Pretti. Another 37-year-old executed for standing up for our immigrant neighbors. For shame. www.startribune.com/ice-raids-mi...
- Reposted by Loevy & LoevyI am watching what is happening in Minneapolis on Ali Velshi and one of the ICE officers (off camera) literally says, “It’s like Call of Duty. Pretty cool huh?” as they shoot whatever it is they are shooting. Agents walking around, guns unholstered for no reason. This is insanity
- Reposted by Loevy & LoevyEveryone in Chicago saw how close this violence was if you interacted with these federal agents. There’s several photos of them directly pointing their weapons at members of the press. They will not stop their violence because that is their actual purpose. They exist to terrorize us into submission.
- Reposted by Loevy & Loevy1) Doesn’t say he was wielding it, just that he had it. 2) Doesn’t match the video anyway. 3) DHS has lied in exactly this way after shooting someone before. bsky.app/profile/ms.n...
- Reposted by Loevy & LoevyWho in their right mind believes statements from the Department of Homeland Security? Who believes anything Kristi Noem or Stephen Miller or Trump might say about what has just happened in Minneapolis? They no longer have any credibility. That should be clear by now. They lie like they breathe.

- Reposted by Loevy & LoevyAOC: An agency that is attacking U.S. citizens, kidnapping five-year-olds and using them as bait, and privately circulating the idea that they can violate the rights of Americans by busting down their doors—they deserve to be defunded, and I’ll take any step in that direction.

- We recently filed a class action suit against another of these incestuous, interconnected pharmaceutical monopolies—Cigna→Express Scripts→Accredo—for exactly this kind of thing. The system is rigged to trap Americans in an unfair loop of high prices and abysmally terrible service.

- "When the government invites individuals to claim powers beyond their proper control, what the law terms 'ultra vires' conduct, it puts the public at risk of rogue conduct. It also places the individuals in legal jeopardy. Following orders is a shaky legal defense, even in wartime."
