News when you want it, with Bloomberg News Now, I'm Ed Kalecki. Leaders continue to react to the shooting death of a 37-year-old man killed by federal agents this morning in the streets of Minneapolis. The Associated Press said the man who was killed was identified by his parents as Alex Prette, an intensive care unit nurse. This is Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara.

70.685 - 79.096 Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara

This is a 37-year-old white male who is a Minneapolis resident. And we believe he is an American citizen.

79.296 - 105.282 Ed Kalecki

Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Fry. I just saw a video of more than six masked agents pummeling one of our constituents and shooting him to death. How many more residents, how many more Americans need to die or get badly hurt for this operation to end? Minnesota Governor Tim Walz.

105.623 - 114.278 Tim Walz

This federal occupation of Minnesota long ago stopped being a matter of immigration enforcement. It's a campaign of organized brutality against the people of our state.

114.376 - 134.608 Ed Kalecki

Border Patrol Chief Gregory Bovino called the shooting defensive. Fearing for his life and the lives and safety of fellow officers, a Border Patrol agent fired defensive shots. The Minnesota Timberwolves have postponed tonight's game versus the Golden State Warriors to, quote, prioritize the safety and security of the Minneapolis community.

135.168 - 140.637 Ed Kalecki

Mayor Zoran Mamdani says New York City is ready for whatever this winter storm brings.

Chapter 2: What recent event triggered reactions from Minneapolis leaders?

219.953 - 240.923 Craig Allen

But a switch to sleet and freezing rain would lower those totals a bit south and east of 95 near the coast. But then you'll have a disruptive ice storm on top of the snow. And bitter wind chills of 10 to 20 below zero will continue after the storm leaves on Monday. So repairs are going to take longer and the snow will be around for many days.

Chapter 3: Who was the victim in the Minneapolis shooting incident?

243.326 - 254.863 Ed Kalecki

The Federal Emergency Management Agency has halted planned terminations of some temporary disaster relief workers as the major winter storm moves across the country. Bloomberg's Amy Morris reports from Washington.

254.843 - 272.599 Amy Morris

An internal email instructed FEMA leaders to cease off-boarding certain employees effective immediately, with updated guidance to follow. The affected workers are part of FEMA's cadre of On-Call Response Recovery Employees, or CORE, a temporary workforce hired on one- or multi-year contracts.

272.579 - 290.284 Amy Morris

The Trump administration has broadly targeted temporary and probationary workers as part of its efforts to shrink the federal workforce. FEMA said in a statement that it was following standard protocol and that news of the staffing cuts being rescinded was manufactured drama. In Washington, Amy Morris, Bloomberg Radio.

Meanwhile, early Saturday, the Mid-Continent Independent System Operator, which runs an electric grid across parts of the Midwest and South, declared an Energy Emergency Alert 2 in its northern and central sections. This means it faces a shortage and needs to reduce energy demand.

In such a situation, MISO is able to get generation that's not usually available and can ask area utilities to encourage customers to conserve. It's one level beneath the highest for emergency situations. President Trump is threatening more sky-high tariffs against Canada. Bloomberg's Monica Ricks explains why.

325.426 - 342.293 Monica Ricks

President Trump's threatening 100% tariffs against Canada on all of its exports to the U.S. if it makes a trade deal with China. Trump says Canada was sorely mistaken for allowing China to increase its imports of electric vehicles and claims China will eat Canada alive for it.

342.273 - 362.682 Monica Ricks

The move comes as Trump and Canada's Prime Minister Mark Carney launched a war of words over the president's takeover plans of Greenland. But it's still unclear what change would mean for how U.S. tariffs apply to any goods traded under the United States-Mexico-Canada agreement. Right now, goods under that trade deal are tariff-free.
