Trump demands Democrats 'cooperate' with ICE in dark screed to deport 'illegal criminals'

By Robert Davis
Published January 25, 2026 5:54 PM ET

President Donald Trump issued a dark, winding screed on Sunday evening following the latest incident where an immigration agent shot and killed a U.S. citizen.

On Saturday, immigration agents shot and killed 37-year-old ICU nurse Alex Pretti at a protest against Trump's immigration tactics in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Pretti's killing had several eerie similarities to another high-profile killing in Minneapolis, when Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer Jonathan Ross shot and killed Renee Good.

Trump blamed Democrats for the "chaos" in Minneapolis in his post on Truth Social on Sunday. He also called on Democratic lawmakers in the state to "cooperate" with federal efforts to deport all "illegal criminals," a label that appears to include American citizens as well.

I really think that someone should revisit his wife's immigration papers for starters...........
