‘Legally carrying a firearm is not the same as brandishing a firearm,’ the former Georgia congresswoman wrote

Marjorie Taylor Greene has urged fellow MAGA supporters – and other Americans – to “take off their political blinders” over the death of protester Alex Pretti in Minneapolis, warning that they are being “incited into civil war.”

“I unapologetically believe in border security and deporting criminal illegal aliens and I support law enforcement,” Greene wrote on X Sunday, the day after the fatal shooting. “However, I also unapologetically support the 2nd amendment.

“Legally carrying a firearm is not the same as brandishing a firearm.”

Despite video showing that 37-year-old Pretti was filming federal officers but did not have a weapon drawn, the Trump administration has claimed he had tried to assassinate agents in an act of “domestic terrorism.”

"Following the news of yet another fatal shooting in Minneapolis, a city that has been on the forefront of the fight against injustices, NBA players can no longer remain silent.

Now more than ever, we must defend the right to freedom of speech and stand in solidarity with the people in Minnesota protesting and risking their lives to demand justice.

The fraternity of NBA players, like the United States itself, is a community enriched by its global citizens, and we refuse to let the flames of division threaten the civil liberties that are meant to protect us all.

The NBPA and its members extend our deepest condolences to the families of Alex Pretti and Renee Good, just as our thoughts remain focused on the safety and well-being of all members of our community."

India has drastically reduced its investment in US Treasuries, as New Delhi and some of the world’s largest nations move away from dollar-based investments to protect against Washington's policy of economic coercion, Bloomberg reported on 23 January.

India’s holdings of long-term US sovereign debt have dropped to $174 billion, down 26 percent from a 2023 peak, according to recently released US government data.

According to the Reserve Bank of India, US Treasuries now account for just 30 percent of India’s foreign-exchange assets, down from 40 percent a year ago.

At the same time, India has expanded its holdings of gold, mirroring the actions of China and other nations.
