Kare 11 local news just read, in full, this statement from Michael and Susan Pretti, the parents of Alex Pretti.

"Please get the truth out about our son."
Statement from Michael and Susan Pretti Parents of Alex Jeffrey Pretti “We are heartbroken but also very angry. Alex was a kindhearted soul who cared deeply for his family and friends and also the American veterans whom he cared for as an ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA hospital. Alex wanted to make a difference in this world. Unfortunately, he will not be with us to see his impact. I do not throw around the ‘hero’ term lightly. However, his last thought and act was to protect a woman. The sickening lies told about our son by the administration are reprehensible and disgusting. Alex is clearly not holding a gun when attacked by Trump’s murdering and cowardly ICE thugs. He had his phone in his right hand and his empty left hand is raised above his head while trying to protect the woman ICE just pushed down, all while being pepper sprayed. Please get the truth out about our son. He was a good man. Thank you.

a woman was being assaulted by a federal agent, and the victim placed his body between her and her assailant, trying to protect her... agents pepper spray him twice in the face, gang tackle him, take away the gun he was concealed carrying and made no visible effort to touch, and then murder him

NYC‼️ TODAY, 6PM, FOLEY SQUARE

EMERGENCY RALLY IN RESPONSE TO #ICE KILLING MINNEAPOLIS PROTESTER

“This tragedy did not happen in a vacuum. It is the direct & predictable result of a federal agency that has been allowed to operate with impunity” @handsoffnyc.bsky.social @riseandresist.bsky.social
Poster for an emergency rally. EMERGENCY RALLY IN RESPONSE TO ICE KILLING MINNEAPOLIS PROTESTER TODAY, 6PM, FOLEY SQUARE January 7, 2026 HANDS OFF NEW YORK CITY STATEMENT Murad Awawdeh, President and CEO of New York Immigration Coalition and spokesperson for Hands Off NYC, released the following statement: “Today’s news from Minneapolis is a tragedy and marks a violent escalation in ICE’s tactics and the state’s repression of political dissidents. Let’s be very clear: ICE and the federal agents are the ones sowing chaos and violence in our cities — and are now killing people who oppose their fascist abduction program. “This tragedy did not happen in a vacuum. It is the direct and predictable result of a federal agency that has been allowed to operate with impunity, secrecy, and unchecked force. When masked, armed agents are unleashed on communities with no accountability, people die. The responsibility for this violence lies with the federal government and the political leaders who continue to enable ICE’s terror campaign, “We stand in solidarity with rapid responders in Minneapolis and the communities across the country who are choosing to build a movement grounded in love, solidarity, and unity.” In Solidarity, Hands Off NYC

A series of mistakes by DOGE shows just how arbitrary and destructive this slash-and-burn strategy can get.

I think it’s beginning to settle just the tiniest bit on these people that they’re stuck yelling out the window at a raccoon to drop the rotisserie chicken
