President Trump - Truth Social post on today's Minneapolis shooting
Truth Social ^ | 01/24/2026 | Donald J Trump

Posted on 01/24/2026 12:40:46 PM PST by DFG

This is the gunman’s gun, loaded (with two additional full magazines!), and ready to go – What is that all about? Where are the local Police? Why weren’t they allowed to protect ICE Officers? The Mayor and the Governor called them off? It is stated that many of these Police were not allowed to do their job, that ICE had to protect themselves — Not an easy thing to do! Why does Ilhan Omar have $34 Million Dollars in her account? And where are the Tens of Billions of Dollars that have been stolen from the once Great State of Minnesota? We are there because of massive Monetary Fraud, with Billions of Dollars missing, and Illegal Criminals that were allowed to infiltrate the State through the Democrats’ Open Border Policy. We want the money back, and we want it back, NOW. Those Fraudsters who stole the money are going to jail, where they belong! This is no different than a really big Bank Robbery. Much of what you’re witnessing is a COVER UP for this Theft and Fraud. The Mayor and the Governor are inciting Insurrection, with their pompous, dangerous, and arrogant rhetoric! Instead, these sanctimonious political fools should be looking for the Billions of Dollars that has been stolen from the people of Minnesota, and the United States of America. LET OUR ICE PATRIOTS DO THEIR JOB! 12,000 Illegal Alien Criminals, many of them violent, have been arrested and taken out of Minnesota. If they were still there, you would see something far worse than you are witnessing today!

Per the AP, Alex Pretti was an ICU Nurse.

“”The AP article does not say where Pretti worked.”””

I expect very soon we will know all about him and what a saint he was.

I’m personally sick and tired of all the useless words for God’s sake do SOMETHING ABOUT IT.

I can’t find any info on where Pretti worked.

Are records being scrubbed?

Because if the guy worked in a hospital and carried a loaded weapon and two clips, I’m wondering if any time spent at a healthcare facility wasn’t about caregiving.

I voted for this and more, you can’t bake a cake without breaking some eggs. If ICE breaks a couple dozen, may be things will settle down. Then, I can buy them a well earned drink in some biker bar.

The only way to get a response out of the Minneapolis PD is to show up wearing a MAGA hat to support ICE, then they’ll come and arrest you for disturbing the peace.

“””I can’t find any info on where Pretti worked.””

It will be interesting to see what happens when that gets revealed.

Who cares about a criminal record. All assclowns start somewhere.

There’s a lot of deranged nurses and physicians.
This “nurse” wanted suicide by cop and his name in the news as a martyr!
Quite a few of the deranged are engaged in drug pilferage too……
All these protesters are being lied to by democrat instigators of the violence…..protesters are all in a state of mass psychosis and their leaders are demonic. You don’t see their leaders on the streets fighting the feds…..they’re cowards and MANIPULATORS. They just sit back, laugh and plan their next manipulation.
They belong in hell.

I care about his criminal record since the enemedia refuses to touch the subject.

The President’s statement sums it all up perfectly, in one full-fledged indictment of the corrupt MN Democrat politicians. But I estimate things will get worse, followed by the Insurrection Act.

I’ll give you another scenario.

A guy who’s working at the VA to steal drugs has someone drop a dime on him to get him out of the way.

If that happened, then whoever fingered the guy, someone who knew how a guy carrying a loaded weapon and full clips would likely react, used ICE to take care of his or her problem with Pretti.

The Mayor and the Governor are inciting Insurrection, with their pompous, dangerous, and arrogant rhetoric! 

If this is true, then WHY THE HELL DON'T YOU ENACT THE INSURRECTION ACT!!!

Respectively submitted...
