- Streets of Minneapolis by Springsteen–and 9 more protest songs from around the world The lesson here might be: don't do something so heinous and evil that Bruce Springsteen spends his Saturday writing a song about it, his Sunday recording that song, and his free time giving free concerts…

- Reposted by GuySocial media posts from the White House, Department of Labor and Department of Homeland Security have included images, slogans and even a song associated with far-right extremist groups.
- Reposted by Guy#GVerse Bravo #London just joined #Minnesota! Trafalgar Square filled with protesters demanding justice for Alex Pretti while opposing Farage. When state violence goes unchecked, the world notices. Solidarity doesn’t stop at borders. 🇬🇧

- Reposted by GuyMinneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara: "People have had enough. This is the third shooting in less than 3 weeks. The MPD went the entire year last year recovering about 900 guns from the street, arresting hundreds of violent offenders, and we didn't shoot anyone ... this is not sustainable."
- Reposted by GuyBILL CLINTON: "Over the course of a lifetime, we face only a few moments where the decisions we make and the actions we take will shape our history for years to come. This is one of them. If we give our freedoms away after 250 years, we might never get them back."
- Reposted by GuyAlex Pretti was an American hero. He saved lives. He protected people. He cared deeply about his community, unlike the murderous thugs who killed him. The very last thing he did was try to help a woman who had been pepper-sprayed and violently shoved to the ground by ICE. 1/
- Reposted by GuyThank you, Jesse Welles for speaking truth to power. When it's done through music, it has a lasting power and magic.
- Here's what stands out about #Minnesota and their resistance to #ICE, busy killing innocent protestors: years ago, fascists could lie when newspapers and radio were dominant. Now, they keep trying to lie--but cell phone videos expose the truth.

- Reposted by GuyMan…I’m just really freakin happy for Sam Darnold. We were in Arizona for his loss to the Rams last year—to go from that to this, and from castoff to the Super Bowl. What an incredible journey. What a game. What a moment for him.
- Reposted by GuyStatistic: 2/3rds of murders in Minneapolis so far in 2026 have been committed by DHS agents
- Reposted by Guy🔥MINNESOTA MAN to @stoneskynews.bsky.social : “The mood is anger. We’re angry with our federal government for invading us for no good reason other than Trump wasn’t backed here— it’s a violent, brutal fascist administration. Trump’s a terrible bully. We’re defending this place against him.”

That speaks to how important people felt to have their voice heard. In those elements and whatever streets outside our hotel, they were out, and it was amazing to watch."

- Reposted by GuyNYT says ICE shot him in the back: An “agent aims his own firearm at Mr. Pretti’s back and appears to fire one shot at close range… A third agent unholsters a weapon. Both agents appear to fire additional shots into Mr. Pretti as he lies motionless… At least 10 shots appear to have been fired…” 🎁🔗
- Reposted by GuyAOC: "An ICE officer had violently pushed a woman to the ground and he had come over to help get her up and that is what precipitated this incident that very quickly led to an execution in the streets. What we are seeing here is a momentous pivotal moment for the United States."
- Reposted by GuyQ: They defied a search warrant this morning. Do you think they'll abide by a federal court order? FREY: Everybody listen to that question. The question is 'will this administration abide by a court order.' These are the underpinnings of our democracy and Constitution. The answer better be yes.

- Where is the #NRA and other 2nd amendment groups today? I'm a gun owner and just saw video of an innocent American citizen, an ICU nurse with a gun permit, who ICE murdered in the streets. Then they lied about it on TV. #Minnesota

- Reposted by GuyAlex Jeffrey Pretti was an ICU nurse at a VA hospital. His life, through his profession, was dedicated to serving his community and our country. As so many have now seen on video, his final act before he was killed by federal agents was doing everything in his power to protect his community.
- Reposted by GuyAlex Pretti "used to tell people off when they made sexist comments to female physicians. He bought me coffee when I had a really bad day as an intern...I laughed alongside him daily. He made a point to teach medical residents without judgement, but with a smile on his face and a joke."

- Reposted by Guy"They say they're coming to save us from some evil? They're talking about our neighbors who take care of us ... Alex was murdered while he was helping. Mr Rogers said look for the helpers, & right now the helpers have a target on our forehead ... Mr Rogers would be here right now too, so I'm here."
- Reposted by GuyMy friends, we are in a serious constitutional crisis. The government is racially profiling, suppessing free speech, killing our own people in the streets— and lying about every fact along the way. If we don’t use our natural talents and voices to say “no,” then what’s the point of law at all?
- Reposted by GuyAlso, may I say that I don’t agree with people saying ICE and CBP need “more training.” They’re doing exactly what this administration has trained them to—impose a reign of fear in blue cities. They don’t need more training. They need to be ripped up root and branch.
- Reposted by GuyOn one side is a nurse and a poet dying while saying “Are you okay?” and “I'm not even mad at you dude" And on the other side are armed officers of the state saying “Boo hoo” and “Fucking bitch.” And they want you to believe the first side are the domestic terrorists.
