The best account of these tactics came from Lydia Polgreen, of The New York Times. She visited Minnesota after the death of Renee Good, who was murdered inside her car:

But when I landed in Minneapolis on Monday and saw the size, scope and lawlessness of the federal onslaught unfolding here, I understood that Good’s killing was emblematic of its true mission: to stage a spectacle of cruelty upon a city that stands in stark defiance against Trump’s dark vision of America.

Thousands of masked, heavily armed agents, some with minimal training, have been unleashed on the streets of an American state. They have been promised near-total legal immunity by the president, effectively unshackled from any constitutional constraints.

They have been given limitless license to abduct anyone, not just the undocumented immigrants but American citizens who happen to look foreign, whatever that might mean. Even Native Americans, whose ancestors lived here long before anyone else, have been detained on the absurd suspicion that they are undocumented immigrants. They have roughed up local lawmakers, detained and jailed legal observers without charges, tear-gassed high school students, smashed in car windows of bewildered drivers unlucky enough to cross their path. Anyone who gets in their way — by protesting, filming their actions or simply being in the wrong place at the wrong time — is presumed to be a domestic terrorist.

And that was before Pretti’s murder.

One of our Constitutional protections, The USSC, has been sidelined by partisanship. So what we have are poorly trained Migra Stormtroopers rousting anyone and killing white folks.

First we saw fake emergencies at the border, but the fake emergencies continued. We now have fake terrorist organizations, fake terrorists, ICE Proud Boys, lies are commonplace, cover ups of murders and inept incompetent killings. These fellows can stop anyone and whisk them out of sight. They've gotten better at timely releasing and I remember in the past I gave them credit for not having killed anyone - now that's gone. Now they're a tool now to bludgeon states into submitting to the FED. The Admin isn't willing to work with the states and address their concerns, and the RW cheers it on. It's bloodsport.
