The #Trump admin has once again immersed the #US in a crisis. The officers who are supposed to be protecting America’s borders have again been unleashed on an American city—this time, #Minneapolis. The authorities in #Minnesota want the #CBP & #ICE forces to leave; the US govt’s response has been to continue to allow them to operate without any limits.

Saturday’s victim was a 37-year-old #VeteransAffairs #ICU #nurse named #AlexPretti, shot multiple times while lying on the ground after taking a beating from government agents.
As if to prove that they can always make a terrible situation worse, #Trump admin officials have made a series of statements; some of them are tasteless & immature, while others challenge the intelligence of anyone who has viewed the multiple videos of the killing.

Secy of #DHS #KristiNoem claimed that the victim walked up to the agents with the intent to slay several of them. White House Deputy Chief of Staff #StephenMiller posted on X that an “assassin tried to murder federal agents.” Neither of these…correspond with the video evidence.

#Minneapolis police say #AlexPretti had a firearms permit, & that open carry is legal in the state for permit holders. Video of the incident shows him holding a phone, not a gun. Officers do not seem to have realized he was armed until after they pinned him to the ground, & the video does not show them opening fire until *after* they have taken away his pistol.

The situation looks bad from every angle, which is probably why #Trump admin figures are spinning this moment as hard as possible. But what on earth is the self-styled secretary of war, #PeteHegseth, talking about—& why is he talking at all?
Late Saturday afternoon, #Hegseth posted this from his personal account on X∶
“Thank God for the patriots of ICEgov—we have your back 100%. You are SAVING the country.
“Shame on the leadership of Minnesota—& the lunatics in the street.
“ICE > MN”
