  • An ICE agent shot and killed Alex Pretti, 37‑year‑old Minneapolis man, during a targeted immigration enforcement operation on Saturday morning, while the Trump administration alleged self-defense despite videos showing Pretti unarmed.
  • Calling for organised responses, he told people to protest as a `constitutionally established right`, support politicians opposing Donald Trump and ICE, and practise self care to stay strong.

  • The federal response has been defensive, with DHS calling Billie Eilish's comments `garbage rhetoric` and citing a 1,300 per cent rise in assaults and 3,200 per cent rise in vehicle rammings while noting the killing of Renee Nicole Good two weeks earlier.
