Right Wing Media (and Politicians) Breaking With Trump Over Minneapolis Shooting Narrative

[citygator]

Okalahoma Governor Kevin Stitt (R) :

“This is a real tragedy. I think the death of Americans, what we’re seeing on TV, it’s causing deep concerns over federal tactics and accountability. Americans don’t like what they’re seeing right now,” Oklahoma Gov. Kevin Stitt (R) told CNN’s “State of the Union” on Sunday.

“What is the endgame? What is the solution? And, you know, we believe in federalism and state rights, and nobody likes feds coming into their state,” he added. “And so what’s the goal right now? Is it to deport every single non-U.S. citizen? I don’t think that’s what Americans want.”

I guess straight up murder and lying is a tad too far for the Wall Street Journal and possibly Fox News. Nothing seems too far for Newsmax though so you right wing idiots can turn to them for your news now. The dam on this lie is breaking.

The right wing family (Murdoch) owned Wall Street Journal came out with an article claiming that the leaders of the Federal Government are lying about their claims. The WSJ felt so strongly that they outlined a frame by frame breakdown of the bystander video that it authenticated. Its a brutal takedown of the federal version of events and paints a clearly illegal killing.

Even Fox News' main story says: "Federal officials initially claimed Pretti approached agents with a 9 mm handgun and resisted disarmament. Bystander video and eyewitness accounts circulating online raised questions about that version of events and whether Pretti was threatening officers when he was shot."


Murdoch Owned WSJ Concludes: Videos Contradict Feds Account of Minneapolis

Federal agents claimed Alex Pretti, 37, forced their hand, alleging he “violently resisted” disarmament until the officers fired “defensive shots.”

Bystander footage appears to tell a different story. A frame-by-frame review by The Wall Street Journal shows a federal officer pulling a handgun away from Pretti. Less than a second later, an agent fires several rounds. Pretti died at the scene.

“Where is the gun?” agents shouted in the chaotic aftermath.

Pretti, an intensive-care nurse, had been on a Minneapolis street Saturday morning and was filming Border Patrol agents. Videos appear to show what happened next.

Why was he there there with a gun

Anyone with even a shred of any kind of decency will break with Trump.

Is it 'decency' to allow the criminals, rapists, murderers, and gang members invited into this country by one major political party to remain at large?

I hope you also pay a personal price for what you support.

 

[OldFlame]

But you will still vote for it.




voting for the lesser evil is still evil. You are why we are $39 trillion in debt.

Not voting is evil and why we are 39 trillion in debt.

‘Moral and Political Debacle’: The Wall Street Journal Nukes Trump Over Alex Pretti Shooting

 

[OldFlame]

Overall they are the same.




I'm pro-life. I'm 100% 2nd amendment. I fully support cuts to help balance the budget. I believe in leaving the Supreme Court at 9. I support the electoral college.

Come again?

Those are only words, and are therefore meaningless. I've never seen you remotely support anything right of center on this board.

 

[OldFlame]

Sure, that's why Trump is murdering people over being legally armed and the debt is now $39 trillion with no end in sight.



Obviously you only see what you want.

Was he legally allowed to use that 'legal' weapon against law enforcement? I guess they should have just allowed themselves to be shot and killed, they deserve it, right?

Why are they nuking Trump? Because he is attempting to enforce federal law? How dare he?

How is your position on this 'conservative' again?

My position is the same as the NRA.

 

[OldFlame]

My position is the same as the NRA.

Not on immigration it isn't.

 

[citygator]

Why was he there there with a gun

Because it is legal. What if he was chased by evil people like that hero Kyle Rittenhouse was?

 

[pknopp]

Not on immigration it isn't.

My position on immigration unfortunately aligns with neither party.

 

[OldFlame]

You don't align with federal immigration law being enforced, you align with the Dumbocrats.

 

[pknopp]

You don't align with federal immigration law being enforced, you align with the Dumbocrats.

I do support that. Sadly no one will do it.

Well, the Right Wing Media is in a bit of a fix here.

After YEARS of telling us that (white) people have a Second Amendment right to have guns on them, shooting a (white) guy merely for having a gun is something they don't want to normalize.

And with that comes responsibility. I believe that in Minneapolis, this is a massive Progressive Socialist Communist line in the sand to disrupt ICE enough to leave. Wha ta stupid city. 99% white in 1950. 90% white in the mid 1970's. Now 60% white and with 3rd world actions and reactions. Only sell outs over any decades would have allowed this to happen. Walz and Frey are two of the biggest. They would leave there in a minute to safer environments if massive civil discourse took place. Purposely destroying a city. Skol brother.

No, I don’t agree with some things the Republicans support. I don’t agree with just about everything the Democrats support. There isn’t a legitimate alternative. Voting for some random Independent would give the win to the Democrats and that is a complete disaster for our country.

VOTE PERSON TO PERSON take the time to see who best qualifies for the job of running your town your state your country.
Their has to be a few left that make decisions based on what is best for the majority of us.
OVER Just party or donners who help them buy their way into politics.

You support half of it only. You don't support illegal aliens being arrested and deported. You've also been shown where employers have been held accountable, you just ignore those facts.

I've addressed this 50 times. You're boring. Arresting someone in a Home Depot lot is not holding employers accountable.
