Blame game erupts over Trump team's false claim Alex Pretti sought "massacre"​

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem is under fire for issuing misleading and incendiary information that claimed immigration agents killed an armed Minnesota protestor Saturday because he wanted to "massacre" them.

• That language has now become a source of controversy in the Trump administration.
• White House officials are blaming Customs and Border Patrol for furnishing inaccurate information, while others are targeting Stephen Miller, White House deputy chief of staff and top Trump adviser, six sources with knowledge of the situation told Axios.

Why it matters: The episode illustrates the confusion that gripped the administration after the Saturday shooting death of Minnesota protester Alex Pretti. And it shows the influence of Miller, Trump's close and longest-serving political adviser whose dominion in the White House far exceeds his title.

Miller's power extends to de facto oversight of Noem, though she's a Cabinet secretary who technically outranks him.

• "Everything I've done, I've done at the direction of the president and Stephen," Noem told a person who relayed her remarks to Axios.

After Renee Good was killed members of the regime circled the wagons around a cohesive message. Namely, it was Good's fault (that effing lesbian) for being shot as she attempted to drive away from ICE agents. This, despite compelling video evidence that told a different story. No matter, the regime decided an investigation was not necessary and the officer who killed Good remained on the job in violation of protocol for such shootings.

The video evidence in the Pretti shooting leaves no ambiguity. After trying to protect a woman being shoved to the ground and peppered sprayed by federal officers Alex was pulled to the ground by those officers, subdued, disarmed, and shot 10 times while on his hands and knees. Ooopsie.

Even a regime that largely ignores public sentiment over what it is doing couldn't ignore the outrage this time. The spin and the lies have stopped working.

Harry Truman famously had a sign on his desk reading, "The buck stops here." Inside Repub circles that has never been true for trump, who takes responsibility for nothing because none is assigned. Not by the following. A first step in holding the regime accountable starts there. trump is the prez, federal agents are doing what he wants done, therefore the deaths of Renee Good and Alex Pretti are ultimately his fault. The former GOP, now the POT, will never be able to heal itself until it makes that admission.

so, not Goods fault for harassing law enforcement agents, not Prettis fault for getting between a law enforcement agent and the woman he was attempting to detain?

did the agent go overboard?

likely,

was this the first time Pretti had interfered with ICE?

hardly.

New video appears to show Alex Pretti in confrontation with federal agents days before killing

Video by The News Movement shows a crowd protesting federal agents in Minneapolis. One of those people has been identified by family as Alex Pretti.

My favorite recent lefty **** hyperbole is the person who posted ICE MAKES THE NAZIS LOOK TAME.

15 million innocent person body count for NAZIS.
2 PEOPLE BREAKING THE LAW BODY COUNT FOR ICE, ONE WITH A GUN.

 

[Mac1958]

Stephen Miller calling Pretti a "would-be assassin" is a perfect example of the insane hyperbole that starts at the top. Either they're too stupid to realize what that causes, or they're all for it.

And "I was just doing was I was told" is the same excuse as another group of people used about 80 years ago. Too many parallels. We need an administration that includes decent people.

 

[pknopp]

You have to give credit over those speaking up.

Republicans sound the alarm on Hispanics and come for Stephen Miller

The issue is though they are simply exposing the mess that is our two party system.

Hispanics left the Democrats over Obama's inactions and now the Republicans are losing them over their actions.

Will Hispanics learn the government does not work for the people? There is nothing to gain by going back to the Democrats.

[berg80]

Do we? After remaining silent all this time through one atrocious action after another do congressional R's deserve credit because two people, US citizens, are now dead. Are they doing the right thing or trying to save their asses in the next election?

Neither party ever learns any lessons.

Between the lines: Trump's move was a rare break from Miller, who remains one of the president's closest advisers, sources said.

• "Stephen Miller is one of President Trump's most trusted and longest-serving aides. The president loves Stephen," White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told Axios.
• Trump and Leavitt also repeatedly praised Noem. Despite rumors to the contrary, Noem's job is safe, White House officials say.
• "She's doing the job the president wants her to do," one official said. "There's no daylight here."

Doing what the prez wants her to do is apparently lie her ass off..........just like him.

Another fascinating fantasy posted by a rabid knee-jerk Trump hater.

Every day their obfuscation of reality becomes more effective. Shifting the parameters of the discussion such that absolute absurdity is accepted without question.

 

[Auld Phart]

if ICE is as bad as you think they are, why aren't hundreds, if not thousands, of protestors dead?

You're talking about the Democrat Party, right?
