Today, federal agents shot and killed Alex Jeffrey Pretti. A 37 year old man. A United States citizen. A Minnesotan. An ICU nurse who cared for veterans. A resident looking out for his neighbors -- as Minnesotans always do.

You have to read this. Firsthand affidavit from one of the women who was there and recording the video. She talks about how Alex Pretti was directing traffic when she arrived. She watched him be killed in front of her. She's afraid to go home, worried she'll be arrested.

Federal agents shot and killed a 37-year-old Minneapolis resident on Saturday, the city’s police chief said. The shooting prompted clashes between law enforcement and protesters, as Minnesota officials renewed demands that the Trump administration end its immigration crackdown.

The deadly shooting in Minneapolis today was a straight-up execution of a protester by Trump's federal brownshirts. The thugs wrestled him to the ground. They pistol-whipped him, then shot him multiple times. They murdered him.

In MN, ICE tried to wall off local cops from a fresh shooting scene even as Trump ranted about “insurrectionists” attacking his “Patriots of I.C.E.” — that’s not public safety, it’s a fed paramilitary force staging domestic battlegrounds for a demented POTUS who threatens to unleash the military

The man who was murdered by ICE today was killed for filming them and more importantly protecting a woman from being attacked, he used his body to shield her. They murdered him for protecting her. He was a hero.
