Trump's America murders nurses and poets - to its shame (hurl alert)
Daily Mail ^ | 27th January 2026 | Andrew Neil

In the wake of yet another killing by federal agents of a protester in Minneapolis at the weekend, the Trump administration is expecting Americans to ignore the evidence of their own eyes and ears, as depicted in numerous videos available to all.

Alex Pretti, a nurse who cared for military veterans, was fatally shot ion Saturday Morning in an altercation with Trump’s increasingly infamous Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents, who for weeks have been scouring Minnesota’s biggest city for illegal migrants.

His death follows the killing of Renee Good in the same city on January 7, an award-winning poet shot by ICE agents through her car window as she slowly moved her vehicle away from blocking them. US Homeland Security secretary Kristi Noem, a Maga zealot who is clearly out of her depth in such a crucial national security role, claimed Pretti had ‘attacked’ federal agents and was guilty of ‘an act of domestic terrorism’.

She’d previously accused Good of the same thing, claiming the poet had been ‘weaponsing’ her vehicle.

Yesterday, Trump appeared to sideline Noem, announcing that his more experienced border tsar, Tom Homan, will be ‘managing ICE Operations on the ground’ in Minnesota. Still bullish, he claimed Homan would ‘continue arresting the worst of the worst illegal aliens’.

FBI director Kash Patel, another Maga true believer promoted way beyond his competence, echoed Noem’s remarks. There is no video footage available to back up any of their claims.

Noem and her ICE agents claimed Pretti had approached them ‘brandishing’ a gun. Turned out it was a mobile phone he was using to record what was going on. A gun was taken from his waistband by a federal agent seconds before he was shot. But he’d never tried to use it. He was unarmed when shot dead.

And Biden's America human trafficked millions, disappeared children, and raped and murdered hundreds if not thousands of American citizens.

But I guess those don't count.

The guy had seriously bad judgement in confronting the feds while armed.

For both lunatics, FAFO met Karma. Both lunatics earned their fates, at no loss to American society. Good riddance.

British and Europeans are inferior.

Example: The “nurses” hold down elderly unwilling sick people in hospitals so the “doctors” can euthanize them to save money for the family and the British socialist health care system.

Who knew?!? Renee Good for nothing was a poet? Gee, I didn't know it.😉

There once was a gal named Renee,
Who wouldn't get out of the way,
Stopped taking her meds,
Drove into the feds,
Which effectively ended her day.

Any country should be executing or at least deporting poets, but nurses are almost always helpful.

A certain number of nurses and poets may deserve it.

Over half of nurses are registered Dems and the leading nurse association donated a record amount of millions of dollars to Kamala’s campaign.

American nurses-—one who wanted Karoline Leavitt to have a painful hemorrhage death in childbirth.

One who said to use hypodermic injections of acids and poisons and to tamper with IV tubes on patients who were Trump supporters.

Many more.

Apology to the FReeper who has two relatives who are good nurses.

“White House deputy chief of Staff Stephen Miller, a sinister Rasputin-like figure in the Trump administration, referred to Pretti as ‘an assassin’ who ‘tried to murder federal agents’. Vice-president JD Vance reposted this claim. There is zero evidence for it.”

“Rasputin-like”

Not one for nuance is he?

And fighting Hitler was the violent persecution of a professional artist. I see the pattern.

See how the fake media is on the political side of the defense of illegal immigration, using identity politics - “nurses and poets”, to attract persons of those identities into “solidarity” with the immigration rioters, when in fact two individuals alone cannot make any cause with those of their professional identity because their professional identity had nothing to do with the events they were part of; they were not “targeted” because they were “nurses and poets”.

Mr. Neil needs to have more uneducated, unskilled young men put up in luxury housing in Britain at taxpayer expense. Trump is not perfect but he is the first president in nearly forty years who tries to do something about the nation’s problems.

Like the media has any room to speak of evidence.
