A statement from the family of Alex Pretti, obtained by CNN:
"We are heartbroken but also very angry.
Alex was a kindhearted soul who cared deeply for his family and friends and also the American veterans whom he cared for as an ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA hospital. Alex wanted to make a difference in this world. Unfortunately he will not be with us to see his impact. I do not throw around the hero term lightly. However his last thought and act was to protect a woman.
The sickening lies told about our son by the administration are reprehensible and disgusting. Alex is clearly not holding a gun when attacked by Trump’s murdering and cowardly ICE thugs. He has his phone in his right hand and his empty left hand is raised above his head while trying to protect the woman ICE just pushed down all while being pepper sprayed.
Please get the truth out about our son. He was a good man. Thank you."
@ChipotleTweets I’m having an extremely difficult time with your customer service. Even when I talk with a “live agent” the responses are scripted and automated. I need a real person to help me.
I primarily use this app for sports info. Last night was the college football championship that my team played in and my entire feed on here is pro Trump/Elon propaganda. Think it’s time to head to Bluesky. ✌️
The biggest #scam in America: I have to pay for my kid to play a sport, pay for all the equipment needed to play this sport, and then pay to WATCH my kid play the sport I paid for them to play with the equipment I bought.
It should come as no great surprise that a Democratic Party which has abandoned working class people would find that the working class has abandoned them.
While the Democratic leadership defends the status quo, the American people are angry and want change.
And they’re right.
