Widely circulated video of Pretti’s killing by federal agents undercut earlier assertions of him being a gunman
White House officials sought to rapidly distance Donald Trump and top officials from their initial portrayals of the man fatally shot by federal officials in Minnesota as a gunman, as they faced a deepening backlash after video footage was widely seen to undercut their assertions.
The move came as Trump advisers appeared to realize that the caustic portrayals of the man, Alex Pretti, who was reportedly licensed to carry a gun, had turned the killing into an even larger political liability for the president.
Over the weekend, senior administration officials including Stephen Miller, the deputy chief of staff, called the victim “a domestic terrorist who tried to assassinate law enforcement”, while Kristi Noem, the homeland security secretary, accused him of perpetrating “the definition of domestic terrorism”.
With Renee Good you had to watch several videos to have a full picture and conclude it was murder. Many people didn’t bother to put effort that would challenge their opinion so the lies worked on many.
With Alex Pretti this was obvious in every video. His “crime” was trying to shield a woman that the gestapo was attacking.
These incidents also show how important is to record and document what ice is doing.
Without videos the lie that he pulled a gun on agents and started shooting would be three accepted one, because “why would DOJ lie?”
Dude that video is so many levels of fucked up, that we aren’t even talking about that SS motherfucker two hand showing a woman, so she falls on her back into the concrete pavement and then he proceeds to unload pepper spray into her.
That ALONE should be grounds for firing and criminal charges.
They then proceed to pistol whip Alex, throw him onto the ground and unload an entire clip into him.
Then they proceed to lie about EVERY aspect of this encounter, EVERY SINGLE DETAIL, they fucking lie.
This video alone should wake up any maga supporter.
But it won’t, because they are litreral demons.
