What new details emerged about Alex Pretti's encounter with ICE?
Welcome to The Megyn Kelly Show, live on Sirius XM Channel 111 every weekday at noon east. Hey everyone, I'm Megyn Kelly. Welcome to The Megyn Kelly Show. You're not gonna believe this. I mean, you are totally gonna believe this. Let me, can I just show you something? Let's just do it this way. Can we play Natalie Portman? Natalie Portman is super upset. I'm going to show you some breaking news about the man she's crying over. But here's Natalie Portman. What's going on in our country right now is absolutely horrific with what the federal government, Trump's government, Kristi Noem, ICE, what they're doing is horrible. really the worst of the worst of humanity. And then we also have the best of the best of humanity for the way people are showing up for each other in community and Americans coming out to support each other and protect each other and fight against injustice.
So I could not be prouder to be American right now by the way the Americans are acting.
How are celebrities like Glenn Close and Whoopi Goldberg influencing public narratives about ICE?
And I could not be sadder to be American right now with the way the government is behaving. It's very joyful to be at a film festival and in a creative community celebrating film together. But what is happening in our country is...
Okay, no one gives a shit about Natalie Portman's political opinion, but she's representative of these far-left loons, the Karen Intifada that we've been watching in Minneapolis. And that was after we learned about the death of Alex Preddy on Saturday. She managed to gin up some tears. She's an actress. So, yeah, over this guy, you know, because he was just like this poor, innocent guy. And the left won't even really they're not even loving the term protester for him. It's like they're basically calling him like a good Samaritan. Just directing traffic. Okay, he was interfering with a federal law enforcement operation. He was not directing traffic like, hey, watch out for the federal officers. He was like, yeah, right this way if you want to block ICE.
He was obviously an agitator, an anti-ICE agitator.
What strategies is the Trump administration using for immigration enforcement?
That's been really clear. We, of course, have reported that here at the MK Show and on AM Update. And now we get this report from CNN. It just hit right before we came to air. And it is the headline from CNN in a piece by Jeff Winter and Purcell Alvarez is Alex Preddy broke rib in confrontation with federal agents a week before death, sources say. I'll give you the highlights now, and then we're bringing on Ruthless to react. Federal immigration officers have been collecting personal information about protesters and agitators in Minneapolis, sources told CNN, and had documented details about Alex Preddy before he was shot to death on Saturday. It is unclear how Preddy first came to the attention of federal authorities, but sources told CNN that about a week before his death, he suffered a broken rib,
when a group of federal officers tackled him while he was protesting their attempt to detain other individuals. The earlier incident started when Pretty stopped his car after observing ICE agents chasing what he described as a family on foot and began shouting and blowing his whistle, according to a source who asked not to be named out of fear of retribution. Preddy later told the source that five agents tackled him and one leaned on his back, an encounter that left him with a broken rib. The agents quickly released him at the scene. That day, he thought he was going to die, said the source. Preddy was later given medication consistent with treating a broken rib, according to the records reviewed by CNN.
So they have confirmed that he was in some sort of an altercation with ICE, leaving him with his broken rib.
How has the media manipulated images of Alex Pretti, and why does it matter?
The form titled Intel Collection Non-Arrests allows agents to fill in personal information of agitators and protesters who they encounter. Pretti's name was known to federal agents. Got it? His name was known to the federal agents. That's how active he had been, according to a source, though it's unclear whether the new intake form was used to share his information. It's also not clear whether the federal agents who encountered him on Saturday recognized him before they confronted him.
