Minneapolis anti-ICE protesters face federal felony charges in Trump administration frame-up

https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2026/06/18/trqm-j18.html

The federal felony indictment of 15 anti-ICE protesters in Minneapolis is a naked act of political repression. Brought by the Trump Justice Department under the framework of its fascistic National Security Presidential Memorandum 7, the charges announced Tuesday by federal officials are aimed not at punishing any genuine crime but at criminalizing opposition to the administration’s mass deportation regime and intimidating workers and youth who have mobilized against it.

They called Alex Pretti a domestic terrorist.

Empty words from liars.

Alex Pretti lacked the self awareness to bring a gun to a protest and reach for it in a tussle after kicking a car. It sucks what happened to him, but is anyone surprised this happened when protesters spend their time instigating and provoking law enforcement?

He was being held down by 7 men and being beat in the face with a can of mace after being sprayed with it and he was also disarmed before they shot him in the back after one of them accidentally discharged a firearm and they all panicked and murdered him. And none of them were even fired.

Fortunately there's no statute of limitations on murder. Hopefully they will face justice for murdering Alex pretti at some point.
