“We already have two Minnesotans dead. My question is: what is Donald Trump's plan? What do we have to do to get these federal agents out of our state? “We are tired but determined, we are calm but we will never forget, we are angry but we will not give up because we are united,” Walz said. He mentioned Alex Pretti and Rene Good — two Americans shot this month by ICE officers.
He again called on Trump to withdraw federal agents from the state.
“We believe in peace and we believe that Donald Trump should remove these 3,000 untrained agents from Minnesota before they kill another person,” Walz said. — Which side do you want to be on? he asked, turning to the Americans.
On Saturday, another shooting occurred in Minneapolis, during which Customs and Immigration Services agents shot and killed 37-year-old Alex Pretti. This is the second fatal shooting involving agents of this service in less than three weeks, further increasing tensions in the city. Intense protests have been going on there for weeks – Americans are expressing opposition to Trump's harsh policies, demanding the withdrawal of ICE from their state.
