    The Dem mid-term strategy is working according to plan. The activists are on the streets provoking Federal officers to kill "innocent" "mostly peaceful " protesters .

    latest minneapolis shooting : NPR

    The only thing needed to really have this spread nationally is for a person of color to be killed .

    The "victim " was armed with with a SIG Sauer P320 AXG Combat high-capacity 9mm pistol with a threaded barrel,; with 2 spare mags (3 mags with 21 rounds each) , and a SIG 93Romeo optic (red dot sight ) . Not a great idea to get into a violent confrontation with law officers armed that way .

    Then again there is the 2nd amendment . I did defend Kyle Rittenhouse's use of a gun when assaulted by a mob during a mostly peaceful protest in Wisconsin.

    I've watched the video and have seen enough still photos in the last couple of days to say shooting of Alex Pretti does not appear to be justified and that he was shot after the threat had already been neutralized in my opinion. His gun had already been removed .

    Further investigation MAY reveal that his weapon discharged as that apparently is an issue with a SIG Sauer P320 although Sig Saur denies it is an issue.

    The Truth About the SIG P320

    The administration needs to back off it's rhetoric on this .Pretti made a fatal mistake in confronting and obstructing ICE officers from doing their legitimate job. But he is not a domestic terrorist as has been suggested .

    The Trump teams messaging on this whole Minnesota nightmare has been horrible ;days late and uncoordinated . Trump does a Truth Social post and then he goes off to Davos.

    Trump won the election in a large part because he promised deportations of the illegal immigrants that came to the country with Clueless Joe's open border policy

    Candidate Biden Calls On Illegal Immigrants to Surge the Border

    The laws ICE is trying to enforce are laws of the land passed by Congress.

    But people don't like to see how sausage is made. Minnesota could've kept the illegals they arrested in detention waiting for an orderly transfer to Federal authorities . Instead they released them back on the streets guaranteeing that the process was dangerous and potentially violent.

    Now the Dems blame Trump for the inevitable violence. In fact their strategy is based on violent confrontation with Federal officers attempting to make lawful arrests . '

    Trump immediately fulfilled his promise to close the border . But the question remains ... despite the fact that polls during the election had the majority of Americans approving Trump's plan to deport ;do Americans really want that ?

    There are at least 9 million we are talking about . Trump prioritized getting the "worst of the worst "first . But even when they are emphasized ;the American people are turning sour to the process.
    On deportations, growing shares say Trump administration is doing ‘too much’ | Pew Research Center

    Even Repubs are getting cold feet .

    Republicans are worried about Trump’s deportation campaign, and our new poll shows why - POLITICO

    And the more ICE is on the streets enforcing the law ;the more the Dem open border crowd wins.
    Writer Mickey Kaus says the tactics of the mostly peaceful protesters are the same ones the Vietnam protesters employed .

    “The local protesters do not want the illegals deported, period. Even if the ICE force was incredibly well trained, wore white gloves, and followed Waldorf-Astoria rules of etiquette, if they are effective, local dissenters will press forward with resistance until it produces confrontations and some violence. That’s the way it worked in the antiwar movement I was a part of
    .”

    Mickey Kaus on X: "The local protestors do not want the illegals deported, period. Even if the ICE force was incredibly well trained, wore white gloves and followed Waldorf-Astoria rules of etiquette, if they are effective local dissenters will press forward with resistance until it produces"

    This is not an accident . The insurrection is well coordinated and funded .
    ....anti-ICE "rapid responders" were actively tracking, broadcasting and summoning "backup" around federal agents outside Glam Doll Donuts on Nicollet Avenue, where the shooting happened. Local "rapid responders" made at least 26 entries into a database called "MN ICE Plates" in the critical hours before and after the killing, documenting the license plate numbers and details of alleged ICE vehicles they claimed to see around Nicollet Avenue.
    Far-left groups mobilized before and after deadly Minneapolis shooting | Fox News

    Pretti was part of the movement. He was not an innocent mostly peaceful protester . He went there to provoke a confrontation . Pretti and others were there when ICE arrived . It was not a coincidence.

    The same thing happened to Dr Oz RFK Jr's deputy Jim O'Neill when they went to Minneapolis to do their own investigation of the claims of Medicaid fraud. They arrived at one of the bogus facilities and within a couple minutes were surrounded by mostly peaceful protesters cursing and giving them the finger .

    It seems systemic in its nature. The building that we visited together, Greg’s building, was a textile factory, became an office building. It’s not a nice part of town. I wouldn’t take my kids there to get cared for, frankly, do much else in business But somehow they had 400 offices doing business with Medicaid charging almost $400 million to the taxpayer. That means basically each of those businesses made a million dollars. You wouldn’t walk in this building in the city part of Minneapolis. I suspect there might have been others who knew this was happening, certainly collaborating with these folks. Maybe even I wonder, the folks who were in the building, the neighborhood, someone knew… We were chased out of buildings by car honking, people giving us the finger…

    Right now the resistance is contained to Minneapolis and a few other sanctuary city/states .

    Elsewhere local authorities are cooperating and the process goes as it should go.

    As Deputy AG Todd Blanche said Sunday about the shooting of Pretti
    I also do not see a single state and local law enforcement officer there to help. And that should be the narrative that we’re talking about, is that what we have is ICE doing isolated operations to get criminals off the street, with zero cooperation from the governor, from leadership in Congress, or from the mayor. And so when you see what we just observed, was that peaceful protesting? Of course not. That was a very violent occurrence because ICE cannot do their job effectively when law enforcement — local law enforcement refuses to help. And that is what is so tragic about what happened yesterday and what’s been happening in Minneapolis for the past several weeks, is that ICE is doing all of this work, doing their jobs, and local law enforcement are not being allowed to do a single thing to help. And that is dangerous, as we saw yesterday morning.
    Meet the Press - January 25, 2026

    The left smells the blood of the martyrs they created .

    They see this becoming a national movement just in time for the mid-term elections ;just as the George Floyd killing ushered in the 2020 elections.

    Schmuck Shumer is already preparing the battlefield .We will have another government shutdown next week.

    He wants funding for DHS decoupled from the compromise bill that would fund the government until after the elections. If he doesn't get it he will force another shutdown. The thing is ;the BBB already funded ICE . Yeah the compromise bill adds funding. But ICE will continue operations with or without.
    What Schmucky and the Dems will defund in a separate bill to defund DHS is FEMA (right after a storm that swept through 40 states ) disaster preparedness ;TSA ;counter terrorism efforts .Coast Guard ;Secret Service.

    The real question is does the US have the resolve ? Do we really want deportations ;closed borders as Trump campaigned for ? Or has the means of enforcement become too unpalatable for America ?

    Trump screwed up by taking a hands off attitude ;letting ICE and DHS continue to enforce immigration law without guidance and direction. Now it may be that he is going to throw Kristi Noem under the bus.

    I believe she is out . He sent Tom Homan in to manage it. Out is Gregory Bovino

    The news is totally one sided . But you already knew that . ICE injuries are hardly reported .

    Officer 'will lose finger' after Minnesota rioter allegedly bites it off: DHS




    And oh btw ;the more we learn about Pretti .the more we find he is hardly the sainted nurse turned martyr as he has been portrayed . Apparently a week before he was killed he had a violent encounter interfering in an arrest . He suffered a broken rib in that mostly peaceful protest. So when he returned to the street he was armed to bear.

    Alex Pretti was in earlier confrontation with federal agents who tackled him, broke his rib, sources say | CNN

    Other articles about him I can't confirm at this time.

    Pretti the "mostly peaceful" "nurse" turned violent protester (I can now confirm this is true ) was at the location of the confrontation within seconds ( if not before) that ICE came there to arrest an illegal.

    New video from the confrontation where he allegedly got a rib broken 11 days before his fatal death shows him with the gun tucked in his pants spitting at ICE agents. They did not engage him then until he kicked their vehicle breaking the tail light.

    Man who appears to be Alex Pretti filmed interacting with federal agents

    The protesters were there at the donut shop ;not the get a warm crapachino .They were there to obstruct ICE . They knew in advance where to go based on a sophisticated signal system that could very well be coordinated from city and state hall.

    Reports on the ground and from the Signal chats say protestors are well-organized, have means of communication they are using to coordinate tracking of federal law enforcement, and even have a database they are using to input license plate numbers and dox agents.

    Patel said that, while peaceful protesting is legal, that would not be permitted.

    “You cannot create a scenario that illegally traps and puts law enforcement in harm’s way,” Patel said. “We have to let the community know that we will not tolerate acts of violence.”

    Minnesota state Representative Alex Falconer, a Democrat, has publicly acknowledged participating in a Signal network used to organize “community responses” to ICE activity, according to The Washington Times. The same report identified Amanda Koehler, a former campaign strategist for Gov. Tim Walz, as an administrator of a Signal group known as “MN ICE Watch.”
    Minnesota Lieutenant Governor Peggy Flanagan has forcefully denied claims that she coordinated or operated a Signal chat used to track ICE activity.

    Please note that this is not a Gandhi like non-violent revolution. The protests more resemble those used by color revolutions.
    The protesters agitate ;and confront law enforcement until they provoke a violent reaction . Then they become the victims of government brutality. Media focus on the violence of the government ;and the fate of the martyr .
    The creation of martyrs puts intense pressure on governments by escalating public anger and reducing the legitimacy of the government.

    Protesters are occupying city squares and streets that they do not want to leave until their demands are met. The protestors are organized by the logistics network. In the name of the masses, the protesters give an ultimatum to the government and threaten mass uprisings if they are not satisfied. The government has two choices: retaliate with force or accept the demands. The third and final phase follows, which entails the “non-violent” overthrow of the government. In fact, it is about open attacks on authorities and the occupation of government buildings, institutions and other components or symbols of government. A kind of civil assault on the “organism” of the existing political order. If the government strikes the protesters with force, the media will accuse it of crimes and killing peaceful protesters, while if it agrees to concessions, it will be swept away very quickly because the protesters will not agree to compromises.

    Proof that the revolution is winning
    1. another government shut down is looming tomorrow. Dems demand the defunding of DHS
    Another government shutdown looms as Minneapolis shootings spark DHS funding fight in Congress

    2.The 2 officers involved in the shooting have been placed on administration leave. The protest won't be satisfied until they are behind bars.

    Federal agents involved in Pretti shooting placed on administrative leave, source says


    3 Judges involved in making decisions have consistently ruled against the administration even though a small win happened yesterday when a judge who wanted to haul Todd Lyons ,the acting head of ICE ,to court temporarily backed off.

    Kristi Noem has been muzzled . She had a 2 hr meeting with Trump where she had to remind him that she was enacting the exact policy he approved . She now sits quietly at cabinet meeting where immigration was not discussed.

    Greg Bovino has been exiled to the now safe Mexico border .

    In comes Tom Homan to the rescue. He got Minnesota to inform the Feds before they release violent illegals back onto the streets ;making ICE job safer . In exchange he is going to hand cuff the officers on the streets .

    Mr. Homan’s deportation priority is “criminal aliens, public-safety threats, and national-security threats,” he said. “We’ve got a lot of them to keep us busy.” What the feds say they need, however, is better coordination from Minnesota officials, so that Immigration and Customs Enforcement can pick up illegal migrants who are already under arrest.
    “More agents in the jail,” Mr. Homan said, “means less agents in the street.” That’s safer for both ICE and Minneapolis residents, and it also means fewer “collateral arrests.”

    Gee why didn't we think of that ?

    compliant press is not coming close to reporting what is going on in Minneapolis. There is no serious police presence .The mob has taken over the streets setting up illegal check points .

    David J. Bier on X: "What. No. Do not do this." / X

    Mostly peaceful protesters broke over 60 auto windows on this road alone
    Bill Mitchell on X: "Minneapolis ICE rioters just went FULL CRIMINAL - SMASHING WINDOWS ON OVER 60 CARS! “They broke into everybody - Every single ing window. Are you ing kidding me? 60 Windows Broken” - furious local walking the damage scene. Downtown turned into a war zone with vehicles https://t.co/ivgvB9VAny" / X

    And it is working . Trump said that if a locality wants Federal help enforcing the law, they have to ask please.

    It is noted that the emperor deported at a faster rate than Trump without these radical takeovers of the streets.
    How ? Because there were no sanctuary cities and states . This is how it worked .

    GWBush set the 'Secure Communities Program ' When someone was arrested ,their fingerprints were sent to ICE . Then if the person was illegal ,they were held until ICE came to pick them up. At least this way the more seriously illegals were deported .

    But the Dems need the illegals Clueless Joe let in for their voter rolls. Yes there is no longer any doubt that is their motive .

    Want proof ? Going through Congress now is a bill that simply says that only legal Americans can vote in Federal elections.
    H.R.22 - 119th Congress (2025-2026): SAVE Act | Congress.gov | Library of Congress

    The Dem's in Congress hair is on fire .

    Chuck Schumer on X: "The SAVE Act would impose Jim Crow style restrictions on voting. It will be dead on arrival in the Senate. My statement: https://t.co/OAJRsmgkWn" / X

    Jim Crow laws denied LEGAL citizens their rights . All the SAVE act does is guarantee that no illegals can vote.
    The Dems are so against it that they are threatening another shut down over it .He said the Dems will vote against any legislation that contains the SAVE Act .

    Setting up sanctuary status and opposing laws that would only allow legal Americans to vote. What other conclusion can you make to their motives ?
