The shooting prompted a clash between law enforcement and more than 100 protesters who swarmed the scene. The man had a firearm, according to federal officials. City officials said the man was shot multiple times. In the video which I saw on CNN, the man appeared to be down on the ground and was being kicked and punched by several ICE agents who surrounded the man before the shooting.

    At least two of them fired at the man.

    This is what their incredible training had them doing?

    How is this in any way different from flagrant Gestapo tactics?

    This is what Stephen Miller considers "within the conduct of their duties", for which they are granted full federal immunity...?

    Besides the at least two shooters who committed the murder, every one of the rest of those agents is an accessory to murder.

  3. by Ponderer on January 24, 2026 10:28 am

    I'm sorry, but the term Fucking Homicidal Nazi Gestapo bullshit is too accurate not to employ here. And so I do.

  4. by Ponderer on January 24, 2026 10:33 am

    Has anyone here been keeping a running track of all of the American citizens exercising their Constitutional rights who have been gunned down in cold blood during each presidency in this century by any chance...?

    I feel like I should start doing one. I'm pretty sure that Trump has a resounding and substantial lead over them all already.


  5. by Donna on January 24, 2026 10:35 am

    I don't know what led up to that murder, but clearly they murdered him when he was zero threat. Like the murder of Renee Good, this was yet another public execution. And there will be others until we get rid of this gangster regime.

  6. by Ponderer on January 24, 2026 10:38 am

    This Fucking Homicidal Nazi Gestapo bullshit gangster regime.

  7. by Curt_Anderson on January 24, 2026 10:48 am
    The feds are covering up the Renee Good killing by falsely claiming she "threatened" a ICE agent with her deadly car. They refused to prosecute Jonathan Ross.

    Will Trump and the DOJ attempt to exonerate the ICE goon squad who killed this man and blame the victim? Will they send an even more ICE agents or maybe the National Guard into Minneapolis? Or will they take a look at the plunging disapproval poll numbers of Trump's immigration policies and pull back?

  8. by Ponderer on January 24, 2026 10:54 am

    I mean... that last guy that stood back and fired off a few more rounds into his already motionless body...?

    Can we at least dock him a few days' pay or something...?

  9. by Curt_Anderson on January 24, 2026 11:00 am
    ...and publicly identify the trigger happy ICE goon squad.

  10. by Ponderer on January 24, 2026 11:08 am

    They'll try to exonerate them, Curt. They have to.

    And I am pretty sure they aren't stupid enough to not know how terrible this is all making them look in the run up to the upcoming elections.

    So why do they keep pressing on with this, knowing how far it's going to make the Republicans fall in the midterms?

    I don't think that Trump intends to allow there to be a midterm election.

    At a certain point, a despised despot has got to just run with it and own how much his people hate him by not giving a shit about it anymore. Trump is just getting a tad into that phase, in my estimation.

  11. by Indy! on January 24, 2026 11:12 am

    The real question is when will the GOP find their balls and 25th Amendment this asshole?

  12. by Curt_Anderson on January 24, 2026 11:21 am
    Gruppenführer Greg Bovino is portraying ICE and ICE agents as victims.

  13. by Ponderer on January 24, 2026 11:24 am

    I think because, Indy!, that they know that Vance couldn't hold their electorate together anything like Trump could. No one is going to be stupid enough to buy, let alone follow or defend JD Vance as a leader. They know that.

  14. by Ponderer on January 24, 2026 11:30 am
    .....

  15. by Indy! on January 24, 2026 11:31 am

    Good point, Pondy. But I would reframe it a little - they're too stupid to realize they aren't winning any elections anytime soon so as always they're focusing on the trees (Vance is just a tool Trump used to fill the veep spot) instead of the forest (their party is now a laughing stock thanks to T rump).

  16. by Ponderer on January 24, 2026 11:31 am

    Kinda careless of him to forget his hat.

  17. by Curt_Anderson on January 24, 2026 11:38 am
    An answer to the question that I asked above: Trump blamed local politicians and local police officials for the shooting, called ICE agents “patriots,” and accused the state’s governor and the mayor of Minneapolis of “inciting insurrection.” He also posted a photo of a firearm that he said belonged to the man who had been shot and killed. He then accused Minnesota officials of orchestrating a “cover up” for an effort to defraud the federal government.

  18. by Ponderer on January 24, 2026 12:04 pm

    Told'ja.

    If only people would just shut up and stand down and quit exercising their Constitutional rights and just let Trump turn us into the Fascist utopia of his dreams, there wouldn't be any problems!

  19. by HatetheSwamp on January 24, 2026 12:11 pm

    "They refused to prosecute Jonathan Ross."

    Bang on. Defund the frigginPolice.

  20. by HatetheSwamp on January 24, 2026 12:22 pm

    Indy, on the 25th Amendment:

    "Whenever the Vice President and a majority of either the principal officers of the executive departments or of such other body as Congress may by law provide, transmit to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives their written declaration that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office, the Vice President shall immediately assume the powers and duties of the office as Acting President."

    Realizing that President "End of quote. Repeat the line.
    ." was not even close to 25th Amendmented, with the GOP frigginOwning Congress, and the members of the Cabinet worship Trump,...

    ... splain how the 25th Amendment is going to make a difference...

    And, gang,...

    ... have you noticed the po-IFICATION of SS!!!! po's still the first SSer to grab the rope and lead a lynch mob. But, whoa. po's got some serious competition!

    Does anyone regret, yet, lockstepping with the Dem smoke-filled room's conspiracy to foist the Day Drinker on voters!!!!!?

  22. by Curt_Anderson on January 24, 2026 12:45 pm
    The man who was shot and killed by federal agents in Minneapolis Saturday morning is Alex Jeffrey Pretti, 37, according to a senior law enforcement official familiar with the investigation.

    Alex Pretti’s neighbor said he was an amiable man who worked as a nurse and would often walk his dog around his Minneapolis neighborhood, exchanging pleasantries with neighbors along the way. “This is not a violent person,” said Jeanne Wiener.

    We will soon see how the Trump administration attempts to vilify the deceased man.

    MAGA didn't elect a president, but the Soviets tricked them into installing a portal from hell where all of the demons could pour through. Trump is a demon portal. Eliminating him will not eliminate all of the creatures of darkness that he's summoned. HtS just doesn't want to admit that the Soviets used to his racism to trick him into voting for the unqualified criminal white male DEI candidate.

    "HtS just doesn't want to admit that the Soviets used to his racism to trick him into voting for the unqualified criminal white male DEI candidate."

    pb voted for fellow Appalachian-rooted, JD... and against the Dem smoke-filled room's string-pullers conspiracy to foist Cackles Mckneepads on voters.

  25. by HatetheSwamp on January 24, 2026 1:33 pm

    Gang,

    Does anyone beside pb wish someone other than Tampon was leading from the Minnesota side of this mess?

  26. by Curt_Anderson on January 24, 2026 1:46 pm
    Video from the scene shows Pretti on the ground after being tackled by Border Patrol agents. Video does not show a gun in Pretti's hands.

    A New York Times video analysis shows he was holding a phone, not a gun.

    Idiot,

    "Does anyone beside pb wish someone other than Tampon was leading from the Minnesota side of this mess?"

    What we wish is that you and your ilk hadn't voted for this. Your prattling about "tampon Tim" is like leaves rustling in the breeze - noise without a message.

    Cut off the head and the fish dies. Nobody is going to listen to Guyliner Vance.
