Republican Sen. Thom Tillis pushed back on President Donald Trump’s characterization of Alex Pretti as an “insurrectionist” and “agitator,” saying that he wanted the investigation to play out.
Trump posted on Truth Social about a video filmed 11 days before Customs and Border Protection officials in Minneapolis shot and killed Pretti. The video showed Pretti kicking an Immigration and Customs Enforcement SUV, breaking its taillight before being tackled to the ground.
