5 things to know about the latest Minneapolis shooting

(NPR) Tensions are escalating in Minneapolis after Alex Jeffrey Pretti, a U.S. citizen, was killed during an encounter with immigration officials on Saturday morning.

Immigration officials said Pretti was shot several times shortly after 9 a.m. local time when federal officers were conducting a targeted operation against a different man who was undocumented and wanted for assault.

The problem, of course, is that the Trump regime will continue to lie about the murder of Alex Pretti.

Likewise, defenders of the Trump regime will reject the facts and the truth and continue to attack and vilify Alex Pretti, falsely claiming that his murder was ‘justified.’

Last, the Trump regime will continue to violate the law and Constitution with impunity, just as criminal members of ICE will continue to murder innocent citizens with impunity.
