MSNBC Airs Fake Photo of Dead "Protester" Alex Pretti, Modified by AI to Make Him Look More Masculine, Handsome, and Heroic

NottheBee has a hilarious recap of this latest propaganda from "MSNOW."


Before getting to that: Although the media keeps referring to this terrorist as an "ICU nurse," the truth is he was an unemployed bum who quit his job to be a full-time paid agitator.

And he's a violent agitator:

Julie Kelly
@julie_kelly2

NEW: CNN reporting that Alex Pretti broke a rib during a separate altercation with federal officers a week before he was fatally shot attempting to obstruct an immigration operation.

According to sources, Pretti was already known to federal authorities for his involvement in obstructing raids and targeting officers.

CNN: "The earlier incident started when he 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.

Pretti 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. Pretti was later given medication consistent with treating a broken rib, according to records reviewed by CNN."

OH.

Here's Pretti.

pretti.jpg
"State law requires me to inform you I have moved into your neighborhood"

Below, the real photo of the dead "protester" and his "Alpha Chad" AI Deepfake.

The AI photo makes him look like he hoists tankards of magical mead after fighting side-by-side with Thor.

The real photo shows a cashew-headed dweeb who has his penis nice and tucked for a night out cruising at the local playground.

Huh. They also seem to have taken the photo to Miami for a quick weekend tan.

This.

Takes.

BALLZZZ:

Real Twitter Journalists have discovered more completely-real pictures of the dead "protester."

This is their go-to move:

Not exactly. He was issued a permit by the State of Minnesota. Its requited to be on one's person when one carries in that state. He didn't have that on him. So matter what we think of Minnesota's gun laws and the constitutionality of requiring a permit, its not accurate to assert he was "lawfully carrying".

It's not like the gun was taken and five minutes later they shot him. It was a few camera frames.

In any case, he went to the scene looking for trouble and got it. No one compelled him to go there. So yes, this specific asshole deserved it.

I would bet its the same as what happened to Floyd.

You only get a few minutes where a cop is choking a guy, what you didn't see was a nearly hour long video where Floyd was fighting multiple officers to simply be put in the back of a squad car and wouldn't allow himself to be arrested.

They'll report the crash of a C172, and use a file photo of a B747 to headline the story, without mentioning 'this is a file photo of a completely different kind of aircraft.'

While true, 1) it is a misdemeanor of the "fix it ticket" variety and 2) the officers couldn't have known it at the time so it is irrelevant to whether or not their actions were justifiable.

115 Not exactly. He was issued a permit by the State of Minnesota. Its requited to be on one's person when one carries in that state. He didn't have that on him.

While true, 1) it is a misdemeanor of the "fix it ticket" variety and 2) the officers couldn't have known it at the time so it is irrelevant to whether or not their actions were justifiable.

It also requires when encountering an officer, that you tell the officer "I have a gun", where it is, and you don't touch it, but simply point to it.

Gee, I wonder why you can't just hand it to him since, "no cops life is in danger" in the case of one handing it over to the cops.

I mean I was just getting my gun out, and some badly trained cop overreacted!!, just because I'm not supposed to be reaching for it!

120 President Donald Trump signed an executive order placing the federal government in charge of the rebuild in Los Angeles, CA, following the January 2025 Pacific Palisades wildfires.

“I want to see if we can take over the city and state and just give the people their permits they want to build,” Trump told The California Post.

Trump pointed out the failures of Gov. Gavin Newsom and LA Mayor Karen Bass, as well as the Biden administration’s slow response.

Another dude got it from him and whacked him with it and he died. The dead dude was black, dude who smoked him was white. The newspaper picture they showed was when he was this little 7-8 year old cherub faced kid with a nice smile. In reality he was 15-16, and a fucking gorilla sized dude. I had seen both of them around town so I knew right away the picture was bullshit and knew what they were trying to do. I never forgot that lesson, and never really trusted the media since.

That shift has been happening for a while. The radical trannies are all-in on gunning up and reflexively oppose *any* 2A infringement. They believe that they will be targeted by gun laws, and it will hurt their preparations to fight the literal trans genocide.

Can just any normal person be turned into a psychopath, or does it require a specific vulnerability. Are there telltales along the way that can be used to wake someone up and warn him or her off the path, or at least take measures to guard your interests against them?

But they are equivocating on "concealed carry" because Pretti did nothing according to the rules of "concealed carry". In other words, he was the same as a gangbanger with a piece and not a citizen with a permit.

As I pointed out above, just the idea that you are not to touch your gun in the presence of an officer, indicates that you can't just do what you want because you're not actually trying to kill them, as taking your gun out would not be.

They are trying to make this out as badly trained, when what they are really saying is that these guys are not reacting perfectly enough to people when they feel like obstructing and resisting arrest.

You can spot the fakes who claim to be conservative as well, because they clearly do not know anything about the law of concealed carry, or how one interacts with the cops.

The reason why lawful gun owners have such spotless backgrounds is because they are acutely aware that being armed comes with additional responsibilities. Picking a fight with a cop while packing heat is a great way to get shot, as we've seen.

Posted by: Ace-Endorsed Author A.H. Lloyd at January 27, 2026 05:25 PM (ZOv7s)

228 I don't have much in the way of sympathy for this guy, but the official statement seemed exaggerated, i.e. the "he intended to massacre as many law enforcement as he could" thing. Eh...other than he was armed I haven't seen evidence of that. Nevertheless deliberately physically interfering with and obstructing federal immigration officers is a crime and he put himself at risk. Whether this is a "lawful but awful" shoot is hard for me to tell at this point despite watching the video and stabilized/slowed video several times.

There is video of the gun discharging in the cops hand. It looked like it surprises him. He isnt looking at it when it goes off. It happens right behind the other guys. They cant see who has the gun, only hear the shot....

285 247 The P320 apparently has some issues. Soft recall a few years back for an UPgrade. It looked on the video like the officer was taking it off him and taking it away while other officers were restraining him and it discharged. Right behind the officers that were holding him. Thats when they reacted. Shit happens. When it does, its best if you havent put yourself in the line of fire with an unreliable weapon.

Posted by: I said it at January 27, 2026 05:30 PM (Mw2aG)

Is it confirmed Pretti's pistol fired while in possession of a LEO?

If it did unintentionally discharge then, there are possible reasons other than a generic P320 design flaw. Including mishandling by the LEO.

That would be a particular case of the more general motivating belief, "Come the Revolution, I will be deemed more attractive." Although I guess to include predators, it would have to rephrased more like, "Come the Revolution, I will have easier access to attractive partners [or prey]."
