Make no mistake.
What happened today with the unlawful execution of 37-year-old nurse Minnesota resident Alex Pretti is all because of Donald Trump, Stephen Miller, Tom Hohman, Corey Lewandowski, Greg Bovino, Kristi Noem, and their murdering band of White Nationalist ICE-Gestapo-Black Shirt thugs.
More blood on their hands.
They say a picture is worth a thousand words. Well, videos are worth a hell of a lot more, especially when countering the endless lying fecal matter from Kristi Noem when she asserts, like she did with Rene Good, that Pretti brought this on himself by violently confronting the ICE thugs, and he was holding a weapon.
Look at the Associated Press video below. Where is Pretti violently confronting the ICE figures?
Where is the weapon, unless ICE now views cell phones taking pictures of their domestic terrorist acts as a weapon of truth to refute their lies?
More telling is the video from the New York Times.

There is no way Pretti was a threat. He was helping a lady who was being assaulted by ICE, and they pinned him to the ground and shot him.
This was cold-blooded murder, and these ICE scum-animal-thugs need to be arrested by Minnesota law enforcement now and tried in a state court because the feds, under Trump, who is blaming Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey for inciting this, are going to whitewash this like they have done so far in the Good case.
Arizona Senate Democrats also need to stay their ground and block ICE funding from moving forward.
Donald Trump and Kristi Noem need to have articles of impeachment filed against them. It will not get anywhere with the MAGA Republicans in charge, but the people need to know who was with them and who was with the lawless Trump-Fascist regime.
There has been widespread condemnation of the murder/execution of Mr. Pretti by Arizona's Democratic Leaders.
Arizona Governor Katie Hobbs wrote on social media:
"Another horrifying killing by federal agents in Minnesota. There must be a full investigation and accountability. This violence must be brought to an end."
Arizona Secretary of State Adrian Fontes released the video, reacting to Trump's Injustice Department practicing organized criminal extortion/blackmail techniques, telling the Minnesota State Government they will remove the ICE thugs if they turn, among other things, over their voter rolls to the feds.

Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes relayed in a statement:
“All across the country, Americans want peace. But Donald Trump’s federal agents continue to escalate violence. It’s making every one of us less safe. There must be a full independent investigation into this tragedy.”
Arizona Senate Democrats posted:
"This video of a man being shot by federal agents in Minneapolis is a tragedy and unacceptable behavior. These actions by ICE & federal forces are unnecessary, unlawful, and dangerous. As ICE continues operations like this across the country, more needless loss of life will follow."
Arizona House Democrats posted the below letter.
Representative Yassamin Ansari wrote:
"This is an outright execution by ICE just weeks after Renee Good was shot in the face and murdered. Every Democratic Senator and any Republican with a conscience must vote NO on DHS funding this week. This is an unprecedented constitutional & moral crisis for the United States."
Representative Adelita Grijalva posted:
"The latest images and videos coming out of Minneapolis are sickening and devastating. Another U.S. citizen has been killed by federal immigration agents, shooting his motionless body multiple times. How many more people need to die at the hands of federal agents before Trump ends this brutal, unchecked campaign of terror and pulls these violent operations out of our communities? For a president who constantly boasts about “law and order,” his administration is actively presiding over chaos and needless bloodshed in our streets. Meanwhile, the House of Representatives just voted to send DHS even more funding. I’m disgusted and tired of watching lives cut short while Washington shrugs. We will not act as if this is normal. IT'S NOT!"
Representative Greg Stanton offered:
"I’m outraged by the lawless, reckless actions of federal officials in MN. Without real oversight and accountability, we are on an unsustainable course. These victims deserve justice, led by state & local officials. Congress has the authority and responsibility to end this chaos."
Senator Mark Kelly wrote two posts.
The first one was:
"Another person in Minneapolis is dead at the hands of federal law enforcement. What this Administration is doing isn’t making communities any safer. It’s doing the opposite and creating chaos in the streets. It has to stop now."
"We are better than this. We can enforce our laws without this chaos and federal agents killing people in the streets.
I’m going to do everything I can to stop Trump’s deployment of federal law enforcement against American cities. That starts with voting no on DHS’s budget this week."
Senator Ruben Gallego also issued two posts. One in English and the other in Spanish.
The English one was:
"When is enough enough? They fired bullets into his body even after he was clearly motionless. This is not what the American people voted for. I will do everything I can to get these goon squads out of our communities and hold them accountable — starting by not voting to give them another dime."
The translation of the Spanish one was:
"Today, federal agents executed a person on our streets. It was unprovoked, without threat, and with excessive violence. They shot a man who was already on the ground. We won't stop until we completely change the system we have now."
