pretty wild statement re: Republican Chris Madel drop from race for MN governor:
"Saying he cannot support the national GOP's 'stated retribution on citizens of our state, nor can I count myself a member of a party that would do so."

Miller's post reads: "A would-be assassin tried to murder federal law enforcement and the official Democrat account sides with the terrorists." Below the post is a "Readers added context" box, which provides a correction to the claim. The context states: "Videos of the encounter shows that the gun was never drawn. The weapon remains in the victim's holster until one agent removes it. After the victim is disarmed, a second agent shoots him repeatedly." The context box includes several shortened links to videos of the full encounter and specific footage of the victim being disarmed prior to the shots being fired.
Stephen Miller was community noted on his post.

Noem:
"This individual... committed an act of domestic terrorism."
Alex Pretti was not a domestic terrorist. He was a nurse. And ICE officers murdered him, without any possible legal justification for doing so. The video evidence irrefutably demonstrates that.
I worry for you guys, I really do. Drunk uncle downstairs is a major issue that I'm certainly not sanguine about, but you've got paramilitary on your streets shooting defenseless people and I lived long enough in Germany to have a strong sense of how that ends up. Stay safe

Alex Pretti from his early days working at the VA
Alex from our time working together, while he was in nursing school. Later, he moved to ICU, working as a nurse to support critically ill Veterans. He had such a great attitude. Weβd chat between patients about trying to get in a mountain bike ride together. Will never happen now
