Trump Says His Administration Is ‘Reviewing Everything’ Over Minneapolis Shooting; Federal Agents Will Leave ‘At Some Point’
Headline: U.S. President Donald Trump said his administration is “reviewing everything” about the fatal shooting of Alex Pretti by federal immigration agents in Minneapolis and indicated that immigration enforcement officers will eventually withdraw from the area, though he did not say when.
Trump’s remarks came in a Wall Street Journal interview and public posts as national outrage grows and political pressure mounts over the incident.
Trump said his administration is assessing all aspects of the shooting but declined to say whether the agent involved acted appropriately, stressing that a determination will be made after the review.

• He reiterated that “we don’t like any shooting,” but criticised Pretti for carrying a powerful, fully loaded firearm at a protest, framing it as part of the context.
• Speaking about the broader federal operation, Trump said immigration enforcement agents will leave Minneapolis “at some point”, praising their work but offering no firm timeline for departure.
  Alex Pretti, a 37-year-old ICU nurse, was fatally shot by Border Patrol agents in south Minneapolis earlier this month during an ongoing federal immigration enforcement campaign known as Operation Metro Surge.
• The federal government claims Pretti “assaulted officers” and resisted disarmament; video footage circulating online appears to show a different sequence, with bystanders and analysts saying he was restrained when shots were fired.
• Pretti was legally permitted to carry a gun, but how the weapon was used and whether it posed an imminent threat remains central to contrasting narratives and investigations.
  The fatal shooting has sparked widespread protests in Minneapolis and beyond, with crowds demanding accountability and the withdrawal of federal immigration agents.
• Local officials including Minneapolis police leadership have called the administration’s narrative into question, saying video evidence raises serious concerns.
• The incident follows another fatal federal shooting in Minneapolis earlier this month, compounding grief and anger in the city.
  Trump and allied officials have defended immigration enforcement efforts and blamed local Democratic leaders for fostering conditions they say hinder law enforcement.
• Other national figures including former presidents and civil rights leaders have condemned the shooting and called for full transparency and independent investigations.
• Labor groups and civil society organisations have urged ICE to leave Minnesota before more people are wounded or killed, tying the controversy to broader criticisms of federal enforcement policies.
  The shooting of Alex Pretti and the Trump administration’s response has become a flashpoint in national debates over immigration enforcement, federal-state relations, the use of force by federal agents, and civil rights. The call to “review everything” signals that the controversy is far from over, with ongoing investigations, court actions, and public protests shaping how the story continues to unfold.
