President Donald Trump expressed sympathy for the family of 37-year-old Alex Pretti, who was fatally shot by federal agents this weekend during a protest, but also insinuated blame on the ICU nurse for bringing a gun to the demonstration.
“You can’t walk in with guns,” Trump told reporters Tuesday afternoon. “You can’t do that.”
The president did not respond to a question about the Second Amendment right to bear arms.
Trump’s claim is the latest assertion from the administration that appears to push blame away from federal immigration enforcement after the second fatal shooting of a Minnesota resident in a matter of weeks. Some administration officials have called Pretti a “domestic terrorist” who intended to hurt agents despite videos of the incident suggesting otherwise.
Trump also defended Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, saying she was doing a “very good job” and would not step down despite Democratic lawmakers calling for her ousting.
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries said Democrats would begin impeachment proceedings against Noem if the president did not fire her.

‘Bovino is an out there guy’ Trump says of Border Patrol commander
21:40 , Ariana BaioTrump has defended his decision to remove Border Patrol commander Gregory Bovino from Minnesota following the second shooting of a citizen, claiming it’s just a change-up.
“I don’t think it’s a pullback,” Trump told Fox News host Will Cain Tuesday afternoon.

BREAKING: Federal judge stops deportation of 5-year-old boy and father whose arrest angered the nation
21:20 , Alex WoodwardA federal judge has blocked Donald Trump’s administration from immediately deporting a five-year-old boy and his father after a viral image of their detention brought fresh anger to sweeping immigration enforcement actions in Minnesota.
Preschooler Liam Conejo Ramos was taken into federal custody from the driveway of his family’s home last week after officers arrested his father Adrian Alexander Conejo Arias. They were sent to an Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention center in Texas.
A federal judge on Monday temporarily blocked “any possible or anticipated removal or transfer” of the boy and his father, who brought a lawsuit against the Trump administration to secure his release.
Trump brushes off ‘domestic terrorism’ claim from his own administration
21:00 , Ariana BaioWhen asked, Tuesday, if he agreed with his administration’s assessment that Alex Pretti was a “domestic terrorist” or “assassin,” Trump appeared to have no knowledge that members of his administration made the claim.
'Well, I haven't heard that, but certainly shouldn't have been carrying a gun,” Trump said, reiterating his point from earlier in the day.
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem accused Pretti of engaging in domestic terrorism while White House deputy chief of staff for policy Stephen Miller called Pretti an “assassin” who was targeting federal agents.
“But all of a look, bottom line, everybody in this room, we view that as a very unfortunate incident. Okay, everyone, unless you're a stupid person. Very, very unfortunate incident,” Trump added.

Frey said he told Homan he would not change the city’s “sanctuary” policies, which prohibit local law enforcement from assisting federal immigration enforcement.
“During our meeting, I reiterated that my main ask is for Operation Metro Surge to come to an end as quickly as possible. Public safety works best when it’s built on community trust – not tactics that create fear or division,” Frey said.
Minnesota rep joins calls for Noem to resign
20:00 , Ariana BaioRep. Kelly Morrison, a Democrat representing Minnesota’s 3rd congressional district, joined the growing number of lawmakers calling on Trump to fire Secretary Kristi Noem.

Melania Trump just wants you to protest PEACEFULLY ... and see her new movie

Because, what with all the “shooting Renee Good in the face and then calling her a bitch” and the Alex Pretti stuff and the “locking up American citizens for a while just for looking a bit brown” thing, everyone’s sort of forgotten about Melania’s big moment. She had just 20 days before Inauguration Day to get the East Wing ready, for God’s sake!

Republican who led funding negotiations for DHS says they need to ‘pivot’
17:00 , Ariana BaioRepublican Representative Mark Amodei, who helped lead negotiations for DHS funding, told the Nevada Independent that immigration operations need to “pivot” after two U.S. citizens were fatally shot by federal agents this month.
Amodei, who chairs the House Homeland Security appropriations subcommittee, said investigations need to be done into the incidents but regardless of what side of immigration enforcement people are on, they need to change their methods.
“I’ll tell you this: there needs to be a pivot in the whole operation. Because regardless of what side of immigration enforcement you’re on, we are not in a good place right now,” Amodei said.
Amodei also raised concerns that officials are less confident in Secretary Kristi Noem’s ability.
“Sending Tom Homan to check in on one of Kristi Noem’s departments operating up there after the last few weeks is not a sign of confidence,” he said. “She didn’t do herself any favors when she called this guy a domestic terrorist.”
“It’s not an open and shut issue. Not that there’s anything good coming out of this, but I’m looking forward to some facts instead of, ‘Well, I saw it and it was legit,’ or ‘I saw it and it was bullshit.’ I’ll tell you this, there needs to be a pivot in the whole operation. Because regardless of what side of immigration enforcement you’re on, we are not in a good place right now.”

“We are not a nation that guns down our citizens in the street. We are not a nation that allows our citizens to be brutalized for exercising their constitutional rights. We are not a nation that tramples the 4th Amendment and tolerates our neighbors being terrorized,” Biden wrote in the statement shared on X.
“Minnesotans have reminded us all what it is to be American, and they have suffered enough at the hands of this Administration. Violence and terror have no place in the United States of America, especially when it’s our own government targeting American citizens,” he added.
Biden called on the government to conduct “full, fair and transparent” investigations into the fatal shooting of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.
“No single person can destroy what America stands for and believes in, not even a President, if we — all of America — stand up and speak out. We know who we are. It's time to show the world. More importantly, it's time to show ourselves.”

Republican candidate drops out of Minnesota governor’s race citing immigration crackdown
16:00 , Rhian Lubin, Ariana BaioA Republican lawyer who was running for governor of Minnesota has dropped out of the race because he cannot support federal “retribution on the citizens of our state” following the second fatal shooting of a protester in Minneapolis.
Chris Madel, the attorney who represented the federal agent who killed Renee Good on January 7, said he “cannot support the national Republicans’ stated retribution on the citizens of our state” in a video statement posted Monday on social media.
In his 10-minute video statement, he said he supported the “originally stated goals” of Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s surge in Minnesota, but condemned the agency’s recent tactics.
“ICE has authorized its agents to raid homes using a civil warrant that need only be signed by a border patrol agent. That's unconstitutional and it's wrong,” Madel said.

ICE director must appear in federal court, judge says
14:45 , Alex WoodwardMinnesota’s chief federal judge is hauling Trump’s Immigration and Customs Enforcement director, Todd Lyons, to court this week and threatening him with contempt over the agency’s repeat “violations” of court orders.
“This Court has been extremely patient with respondents, even though respondents decided to send thousands of agents to Minnesota to detain aliens without making any provision for dealing with the hundreds of habeas petitions and other lawsuits that were sure to result,” chief Judge Patrick J. Schiltz wrote in an order late Monday.
“Respondents have continually assured the Court that they recognize their obligation to comply with Court orders, and that they have taken steps to ensure that those orders will be honored going forward. Unfortunately, though, the violations continue,” he added.
“The Court’s patience is at an end.”
Lyons must appear for a hearing at 1 p.m. CT Friday.
The judge acknowledged the “extraordinary step” of ordering a federal official to court, “but the extent ofICE’s violation of court orders is likewise extraordinary, and lesser measures have been tried and failed,” he wrote.

Amid tensions at home in the U.S., American warships have arrived in the Middle East.
The region has been holding its breath as Donald Trump weighs up strikes on Iran, following weeks of deadly protests across the country.
The massive USS Abraham Lincoln and several guided-missile destroyers have arrived in the region, after Trump promised an “armada” was on its way.
“We have a lot of ships going that direction, just in case ... I’d rather not see anything happen, but we’re watching them very closely,” Trump told reporters on board Air Force One on Thursday. “We have an armada ... heading in that direction, and maybe we won’t have to use it.”

However, two senior officials in Tehran’s health ministry told Time that the real number is closer to 30,000 deaths.

The alleged meeting took place in the Oval Office and lasted two hours. Sources told The New York Times that the secret discussions were organized by Noem, with Karoline Leavitt, Steven Cheung and Susie Wiles also joining the meeting.

Trump and Noem’s ICE swarm in Minnesota could be falling apart, says The Independent's senior Washington correspondent
11:21 , Owen ScottDonald Trump and Kristi Noem’s ICE crackdown in Minnesota could soon fall apart, writes Eric Garcia, The Independent’s senior Washington correspondent.
The shooting of Alex Pretti has ignited a national debate about the legality of the crackdown, worsening the president’s already dire poll ratings.
But the shooting is not just an approval ratings issue for Trump, it also comes at a crucial time for his Republican Party.
Congress needs to pass a handful of spending bills soon in order to avoid a partial shutdown, including its bill to fund the Department of Homeland Security, which houses ICE and CBP.
And, unlike the killing of Good by an ICE agent earlier this month, Republican senators seem to be queasy about the way Pretti’ was gunned down by CBP officials.

Republican Chris Madel dropped out of the Minnesota Gubernatorial Race in response to the shooting of Alex Pretti by federal agents.

“But it has gone so far beyond that goal, that it just got to a point where I literally just cannot support that.”
