The last word with Lawrence O'Donnell starts right now. Hey, Lawrence.

Hey, thanks, Jen. We have Professor Timothy Snyder joining us tonight. I've been wanting to hear from him about the situation we are now living through.

And he has an important new piece in the Boston Globe where he outlines what he calls for Donald Trump the political logic of Donald Trump's lawlessness. And he finds

historical parallels in other authoritarian. Really important stuff. We're going to get to that

tonight. Oh, well, look for, I can't speed read it. So I'm going to listen first, and then I'm going to

read the article, which I haven't read yet. but he's always an interesting person to talk to.

He is, and we're going to hear from him soon. Thanks, John.

Great. Have a good night.

Thank you.

Well, being Stephen Miller means never having to say you're sorry.

After the murder of Alex Pretti on Saturday morning by agents sent to Minneapolis

by Donald Trump at Stephen Miller's urging, Stephen Miller decided it was his turn to fire shots

at Alex Priddy. And he did. We've all seen the video of the most cowardly federal

agents ever caught on video calmly walking backwards, backing away from Alex Prattie as they were

firing at least six additional shots into that motionless

body lying face down in the pavement, completely unthreatening to anyone.

There is no evidence in any of the videos that the first shot fired at Alex Prattie from inches away from his body was justified.

No evidence justifying even the first shot.

And it's very likely that that shot fired at such close range killed Alex Prettie. And what is also very

clear in the videos about that for a shot is that one of the agents had already removed Alex

Prettty's licensed handgun from Alex Prattie's right hip, a handgun that Alex Pretti never touched during the incident.

All the videos prove that.
