Hi, Clay.
And today on the show, federal agents shot and killed another American in Minneapolis over the weekend.
37-year-old Alex Preddy was an intensive care unit nurse at a VA hospital.
He was using his phone to film ICE agents.
When the situation rapidly escalated within seconds, half a dozen masked agents were pinning him to the ground face down, and then he was shot in the back multiple times.
