Rep. Tom Suozzi (D-NY) admitted that he had "failed" after voting for Department of Homeland Security funding that enabled the federal government's reign of violence in Minnesota.

On Monday, Suozzi responded to a DHS officer killing 37-year-old Alex Pretti by apologizing to his constituents.

MAGA influencer Steve Bannon called on the Trump administration to double down after officers from the Department of Homeland Security killed Alex Pretti, a 37-year-old nurse, over the weekend.

"In Minneapolis is just the center of an outright revolution, highly organized, highly financed, with our enemies, the Chinese Communist Party in back of this, but Soros, many other groups, highly organized, as sophisticated as what they did against our troops in Baghdad during the insurgency there," Bannon argued on his Monday War Room program. "And during the Iraq War, this is highly sophisticated. Under no circumstances can we de-escalate. Under no circumstances can we blink."

The pro-MAGA hosts on Real America's Voice argued that Alex Pretti's death at the hands of DHS officers should prompt President Donald Trump to invoke the Insurrection Act against anti-ICE protesters.

"As you can imagine, a number of protests broke out there in Minneapolis, and it really has just been a tragic situation," co-host Terrence Bates noted on Monday. "It's about time for President Trump to invoke the Insurrection Act, just to try to really get a handle on this and send a message."

Reacting to a Republican candidate from Minnesota who dropped out of the race and has indicated he will leave the party on Monday due to Donald Trump’s anti-immigrant siege of his state, a key Trump-aligned campaign consultant expressed dismay at the damage the president is doing to the party.

According to the Wall Street Journal, lawyer Chris Madel abandoned his bid for the GOP nomination to replace outgoing Governor Tim Walz (D-MN), stating he could not reconcile his candidacy with the administration's enforcement tactics.

President Donald Trump is sending his "border czar" to handle the fallout from another fatal shooting during a Department of Homeland Security operation in Minnesota, and CNN's Harry Enten flagged that as a sign that deeply unpopular Kristi Noem might be ousted as secretary.

A Customs and Border Patrol officer shot and killed 37-year-old nurse Alex Pretti over the weekend, less than three weeks after another officer fatally shot 37-year-old Renee Good, and Trump announced that Homan would lead the immigration crackdown in the Minneapolis area.

President Donald Trump threatened several pollsters Monday, including the conservative Fox News, over what he declared to be their “fake and fraudulent polling,” which he argued should be considered a “criminal offense.”

“Fake and Fraudulent Polling should be, virtually, a criminal offense,” Trump wrote on his social media platform Truth Social. “As an example, all of the Anti Trump Media that covered me during the 2020 Election showed Polls that were knowingly wrong. They knew what they were doing, trying to influence the Election, but I won in a Landslide.”

Republican Chris Madel announced his surprise withdrawal from the Minnesota governor's race in protest of the Trump administration's "retribution" campaign against his state.

The Minneapolis attorney made the announcement Monday, two days after a federal agent shot and killed 37-year-old Alex Pretti, and said the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s operation he had originally supported had “expanded far beyond its stated focus on true public safety threats," reported the Star Tribune.

Fox News host Griff Jenkins fact-checked Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche to his face after officials at the Department of Homeland Security alleged that 37-year-old slain nurse Alex Pretti was a domestic terrorist.

"Here's a quote from [Fox's] reporting saying there is extreme internal frustration with DHS officials going on television and putting out statements to describe Alex Pretti as a domestic terrorist who was there to inflict maximum damage on federal agents or conduct a massacre even after multiple videos emerged," Jenkins explained on Monday, "to show that these claims appear to be inaccurate."

The first medical professional allowed to access Alex Prettis' body after he was held down by Department of Homeland Security agents and shot to death claimed they failed to administer any potentially life-saving aid — and instead appeared to be admiring their handiwork.

In a deposition given to lawyers seeking a judge's order to suspend ICE operations in embattled Minneapolis that have now led to two deaths of innocent locals and thousands of arrests, a pediatrician, whose name has been redacted to protect them from ICE officials and who lives on the street wher Pretti was killed Saturday, approached DHS officials and identified themself as a doctor and asked to help.

During a recent interview with New York Magazine, President Donald Trump had “an unfortunately timed” memory lapse when struggling to remember the name of a disease perhaps best known for memory loss, The Daily Beast reported Monday.

In the interview, Trump addressed mounting questions about his health, which have increased as the president continues to be spotted in public with swollen ankles and bruised hands. His increased instances of rambling during speeches, along with his MRI scan last year that has yet to be fully explained have also raised concerns among critics.

President Donald Trump announced that he's sending his designated "border czar" Tom Homan to oversee the ongoing immigration crackdown in Minnesota.

The administration has been hit with blowback after U.S. Customs and Border Patrol officers killed two 37-year-old observers — Renee Good and Alex Pretti – in the past three weeks as federal agents attempt to detain undocumented migrants, and the president responded by announcing Homan's deployment to the area.
