Just my opinion, as usual
This is so easy: they aren’t even trying to make these things look real anymore.
The fakes are now coming daily, as they ramp up the chaos more and more to cover previous fakes. Today another actor was allegedly killed by ICE in Minneapolis, this time a guy said to be from Green Bay or Milwaukee. The whole thing collapses on his name: Alex Pretti.
Yes, you read that right: Alexander Pretti. Is he pretty? No, but he does look exactly like we would expect, and then some. Long narrow face, Phoenician nose, pasted into a doctor’s smock with a flag behind him. Add your own violins.
[Added January 26: that photo has now been doctored for tributes to Pretti in Minnesota.
The ole Gentilification editing program. You will say they just squashed it vertically a bit, to fix a previous stretch. Nope, since they also gave him a tan, fixed his smile, straightened his nose and eyebrows, shortened his septum, and even fixed the bags under his eyes. He would seem to have a very vain ghost, eh?
And guess what, the doctored one is now his official Wiki photo! Because that makes sense, right?]
Within about 12 hours they already had the prefab tribute videos posted at Youtube, the Wikipedia page, the GoFundMe beg, multiple videos of the event, and even lightning protests on the ground in Milwaukee and Minneapolis. How did they get the signs made that fast?
Within hours Governor Tim Walz used the event to mobilize the Minnesota National Guard. Oh, well, that’s convenient then.
That doesn’t look right, either. It looks like an agent arguing with an agent, doesn’t it? Without the scarf it would be hard to tell which one was the Fed. Maybe that’s what the scarfs are really for: so the agents can tell one team of actors from the other.
And guess what, none of the videos show anything, with the persons filming suddenly losing control of the camera and panning away to keep you from seeing it is all staged. Same thing we see every time. The police are all dressed differently, some in bluejeans. Pretti was allegedly licensed to conceal carry and was carrying in a holster, which he allegedly reached for. What sort of nurse needs to conceal carry? Why would you go armed to a protest against ICE? Was there even a gun in the holster? Was it loaded? We will never know from the films, but from other clues we can say it doesn’t matter. The shots sounded like blanks, unless ICE is now carrying .22s. My guess is he is another actor/agent and is still alive. Everything else is staged so how could this possibly be real?
Unlike yesterday’s William Kelly arrest, where we were given no age or residence and no Wiki page, Alex Pretti had a Wiki page within 12 hours, where we find a full bio and learn he is supposed to be a 37-year-old nurse for the VA (Veteran’s Affairs). So he is a Fed, halfway to a narc already.
Alex Jeffrey Pretti of Minneapolis was a 37-year-old American citizen. [6][9][10] Born in Illinois, [11] Pretti was a 2006 graduate of Preble High School in Green Bay, Wisconsin.[12] He worked as a research scientist before attending University of Minnesota, where he graduated in 2011, in order to become a registered nurse. [13][9] At the time of his death, Pretti held an active nursing license issued in 2021[14][15] and was an intensive care nurse at the US Department of Veterans Affairs hospital in Minneapolis.[16][17][15]
But wait, how could he work as a research scientist before going to college? And why did it take him ten years to get a nursing license after graduating, we assume in nursing? Even if his major was in something else and he had to go to nursing school, that doesn’t take ten years. This bio doesn’t add up. Expect it to change as AI is alerted to this paper asking questions and expecting continuity.
The shooter has not been named.
[Next day: it has been about thirty hours, but they have still not named a shooter. Wiki has been updated to say there were two officers who shot him and they give you a big hint by admitting
Bovino reported that as of January 25, 2026, all agents present at the scene of the shooting were still at work.[40]
That isn’t the way it is done, since when there is a real killing like this the officers are at least temporarily grounded for the investigation. For obvious reasons: if one or both of the officers were jacked up on drugs, for instance, or incapacitated in any way, leaving them on duty would just increase the likelihood of a losing a lawsuit. Normal protocol is to ground them for some amount of time. And I remind you that the fake shooter in the Renee Good event was named almost immediately as Jonathan Ross. So why are they hiding the shooters here?
Jan. 26, 9pm: 54 hours and still no word on the shooters, and Wikipedia has completely removed the section “shooter”. ]
Protests were held in Seattle, Washington,[35] Portland, Oregon,[36] Durham, North Carolina,[37] Oak Park, Illinois near Chicago,[38] and Downtown Los Angeles.[39]
In less than 12 hours? So they had to be astroturfed and pre-organized. They are really rushing these things.
All reports are repeating the story that Pretti loved his Catahoula Leopard dog Joule, who died more than a year ago. What does that have to do with anything? Is that important information in the first twelve hours of an investigation? This is just AI trying to create emotion. It reeks of the bad scriptwriting we have come to know and hate.
Radaris and FastPeopleSearch tells us Pretti exists as Alex J. Pretti, but he has two separate listings, and is both 37 and 48. He has a different phone number for each listing. He has also lived recently in Arvada and Henderson, CO, in both listings, so both are him. His Wiki page says nothing about Colorado, since he did not go to school there. Henderson is part of Denver, just north of the old Rocky Mountain Arsenal. It is a very strange place for Pretti to have on his list, since although it is part of greater Denver and not that far from downtown, it is unincorporated and nearly empty, being mostly ponds captured from the South Platte River. Almost no one lives there, the big attraction being Trailer World of Colorado. More digging shows it is his father who lived there. Michael Pretti, 63, “principal engineer”. We find him at LinkedIN, working for Souder Miller. His mother is apparently Susan Skocir Pretti, 63. Skocir is a Slovenian name. There is a Sue Skocir at LinkedIN of Milwaukee, at Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin, though FastPeopleSearch says our Sue Skocir lives in Arvada. His grandmother would appear to be a Gerard. We also link to a Albert Constantine Canoun, 98, of California. We also link to surnames Schreiner, Leitner, Wetzel, Hess, Rubenzer, Schaumberg, Heilgendorf, Meyran, Monsivais and Pellman. Canoun comes up on a search, since he died at 94 due to the negligence of an assisted living worker, charged in his death in 2023 in Walnut Creek. Monsivais is a Mexican name, originally Spanish and French. It may be Jewish, but many of the others definitely are.
Pretti’s parents, who live in Wisconsin, said they had also recently told their son to be careful while protesting.
That’s from the BBC. But according to the free people searches, that is false. According to both Radaris and FastPeopleSearch, they are living in Arvada, CO, which is why Alex also has Arvada on his list. Michael and Susan have a previous address in Green Bay, but their current address is CO, and they even give you the exact street address, which I will not reprint here. But it is open information on the internet and you can take the link if you want to. No reason the BBC couldn’t find it.
Strangely, we find a third Alex Pretti of Minneapolis of the right age at LinkedIN, though there is no picture. His bio is similar as well, since he has worked as a junior scientist at the University of Minnesota Medical School for twelve years.
Even stranger, we find a fourth person of nearly the same name linked to this family, Alex Petti, 63, of Green Bay. FastPeopleSearch has all the same relatives for him and Alex Pretti, 37:
And then there is this:
Do you see it? They forgot to scrub the listing for Biloxi, which is of course the home of Keesler AFB. Remember Biloxi Blues with Matthew Broderick? That would indicate Alex wasn’t just in Denver to see his Dad. He was probably connected to one of the bases there as well.
A genealogy search on the name Pretti takes us to many Prettis of Colorado back to the 1800s, and before that from Austria. Wikipedia also lists them from Italy and Brazil. The name was apparently originally Preti, as in the famous baroque painter Mattia Preti. He takes us to the usual place, since he was a Knight of Malta (St. John of Jerusalem), meaning he was a cloaked Jew.
That is his St. Veronica of the Veil, so you can see why he was so famous. That is truly amazing. And I say that not because I believe Jesus’ face was transferred to a veil, but because of the way it is painted. Look at those hands! Look at the headscarf she is wearing! Look at her eyes! People ask me if anything is real. That is real. I have seen it in Los Angeles and you could, too, at the County Museum of Art. Except that it is not currently on the walls there, since they have to make room for stuff like this:
In England these Prettis are in the peerage as Prettys, related to the Cannings, Barons Garvagh. Also related to the Campbell-Walters, who come from the Campbells of Airds and the Macleods. You will remember who is a Macleod: Trump. The Prettys of the peerage also married recently the Goldsmiths, previously Goldschmidts of Frankfurt, Germany. These Goldsmiths were the directors of the Savoy Hotel and Claridges back in the 1930s. One them, Sir James, married Lady Vane-Tempest-Stewart, daughter of the Marquess of Londonderry. So if Alex Pretti is related to these people in any way, we are right at the top. Through them we link to the Sunderland-Leveson-Gowers (Dukes of Sutherland), the Howards, the MacKenzies, the Chaplins, the Blairs, the Gibson-Craigs, the Cavendishes (Dukes of Devonshire), the Spencer-Churchills, the Russells, and everyone else. Which is why I pointed out his physiognomy immediately: he looks like he is from these families, which is not an unimportant clue.
And now do you want the cherry on top? Those Goldschmidts we just saw? Do you want to guess who they really are? Goldschmidt-Rothschilds. Don’t let that hammer drop on your foot.
If you don’t know what I mean, compare our Alex Pretti to David Rothschild. Same face shape.
At Yahoo news I finally got some more conflicting reports after midnight.
The family first learned of the shooting when they were called by an Associated Press reporter. They watched the video and said the man killed appeared to be their son. They then tried reaching out to offcials in Minnesota.
“I can’t get any information from anybody,” Michael Pretti said Saturday. “The police, they said call Border Patrol, Border Patrol’s closed, the hospitals won’t answer any questions.”
Eventually, the family called the Hennepin County Medical Examiner, who they said confrmed had a body matching the name and description of their son.
That makes no sense. You aren’t going to comment in the international press before you have even identified the body. It is not up to the Medical Examiner to identify him, even if he had ID on him. The parents have to identify the actual body, and only then would they even think of commenting to reporters. We also find this:
Family members said Pretti owned a handgun and had a permit to carry a concealed handgun in Minnesota. They said they had never known him to carry it.
But wait, other reports said he was carrying in a visible holster. A visible holster is not a concealed carry. And it is now coming out that he had a gun and two extra clips, but no ID on him. A concealed carry permit requires you carry ID with the gun. I guess that would explain why his parents couldn’t ID him all day, or would if any of this weren’t fiction. And it just adds to this mystery: why would a nurse need 45 bullets on him for self-defense? The gun was allegedly a SIG Sauer P320, with 15 shots in each clip. Which, according to my math, is 45 shots. Under what scenario was he expecting to need 45 shots to protect himself? [Next day: we are now told it is the AXG combat model, which would increase that to 63 rounds. But on further research, I would guess this SIG was chosen for this script due to its tendency to accidental fire, since they are now claiming the gun may have fired on its own, startling the agents. They can come up with a story for any occasion, and if this one doesn’t work they will just come up with another one. I saw no confirmation of that story from the film, since the first shot doesn’t sound any different than the rest, and there is no gap. They can easily change the soundtrack to fit and may already have. But the combat model does continue to beg the question: is this really the model a nurse would have as his only pistol, used as protection from robbers or muggers? A large capacity semi-auto combat model?]
In that article, we find his ex-wife is the Canoun, Rachel N. Canoun, divorced two years ago and no longer living in MN. So how did they find her so fast and get an interview within just twelve hours? His parents hadn’t even found him in the morgue yet, but his ex-wife is already giving interviews to the AP? Really? Turns out she is a patent attorney in San Diego, coming out of the University of Minnesota School of Law. Her father is a senior engineer at T-Mobile. So these are some prominent families, just as we guessed. I haven’t found the smoking gun there—someone in Langley or the Pentagon—but my guess it is there. You can see how close I am already.
Canoun is a variant of Cannon, and it is, yep, Jewish. Think actress Dyan Cannon*, for one of many. Also see Marion Wadsworth Cannon, who was a Hirshinger and admitted to be Jewish. She was a poet and cousin of Longfellow. And I remind you we saw the Cannons last month in my paper on Trotsky, where James P. Cannon was the National Secretary of the American Socialist Workers Party.
His parents said their last conversation with their son was a couple days before his death. They talked about repairs he had done to the garage door of his home. The worker was a Latino man, and they said with all that was happening in Minneapolis he gave the man a $100 tip.
That’s from the same article at Yahoo, so we are seeing strong signs of AI here. What a coincidence, right, that he just talked to everyone he knew two days before his death, giving us supporting stories for everything here. AI doesn’t understand how the human world works, where nothing important ever happens or gets said. And they just told us he was living in a 4-unit condo, implying he is poor, which doesn’t make sense since he is a nurse working long hours and he has no wife or children to support. His wife is a patent attorney, so he isn’t paying her alimony. But despite allegedly being poor, he tips someone $100 for fixing his garage door? C’mon! Nobody does that, because he was already probably getting shafted for it. But there’s another problem:
FastpeopleSearch gives his address as 1928 Aldrich Ave S, unit 104. Radaris confirms it as a recent address. But as you see, not only is there no such address, these “condos” don’t have garages. It is on- street parking. Besides, this is a poor neighborhood, and there is no way that guy is living there or ever did. This is almost the ghettoes, being right off 94, under the Hennepin off-ramp. I just did a drive- around there on Google Maps, and it literally looks like the projects. Bums walking around in wife- beaters. Nurses working long hours make very good money, as you know, so there is no reason for him to be living in the projects. Pretti has been a nurse for at least five years, so there is no reason for him to be living in squalor. His family isn’t poor. Even a college-student wouldn’t rent there, but you buy a condo, you don’t rent it. No nurse is going to buy that property, unless he is seriously strung out on meth. So again, something don’t jive here.
It took until mid-day Sunday for me to find the clincher, but here it is:
Yeah, that again. Why is that the clincher? Because it doesn’t match the video that is leading the story. As usual, they are feeding you the snuff film on the day it happened, which used to be illegal. Why would the media be disseminating this? Well, obviously, because the whole point of the event is to stir you up and keep your eyes on this. As well as being a part of Operation Chaos, its other point is misdirection: keep your eyes off the ongoing vaccine genocide, the rape of the treasury, and the collapse of the economy. They need you fighting your neighbors and family over this instead of keeping your focus on the real bad guys . . . which aren’t these ICE actors. Anyway, my point is, go to the film and try to find that still. When does that happen in the film? Answer: it doesn’t. In the take we see, that never happens. The agent that initially attacks Pretti doesn’t even look like that in the video. His jacket is a different color and has different backpack straps. The guy in the photo above has a gray shirt and scarf and a backpack with at least three straps, right? He is noticeably shorter and fatter than Pretti. Well, none of that matches the film, where the ICE agent is the same height, has a gray-green shirt, and his backpack has one strap under the arm. Two other agents then join in, and they do have backpacks with the three straps, but they have on dark shirts and black balaclavas. So again, no match.
Which brings us back to that: who are these guys? Why do they all have different uniforms, colors, backpacks, and head coverings? It looks like some kind of costume party, like we saw in the Manson event. I remind you we had the same problem there, and prominent writers even commented on it at the time. See p. 48 of my paper, where we see that Ed Sanders, who wrote The Family, the second most famous book on the Manson murders after Helter Skelter, pointed out the cops at Spahn Ranch had about five different uniforms on, many of which matched no known California agency.
Same thing here. In this case, we have a further glitch, in that they switched out actors, indicating multiple takes. But they forgot to lead with a still from the same take as the video they chose to go with. Such a rookie mistake, guys! Busted.
January 27, 2026: But more is coming in, if you need more. To prove Pretti was a nurse, they have now released this photo:
Do you see it? Take your time. It’s AI. CGI. If you can’t see it, look at the Asian woman in the middle. Now look closely at her cap and the glasses. Whoops! Major glitch there, since there is no reason for them to be dissolving. You will say she was moving, causing blur. Really? So her face wasn’t moving but her cap and glasses were? How does that work? Another problem is that the perspective is wrong from left to right. Compare Pretti to the guy on the far right. Pretti’s head is much smaller, as if he is significantly farther away, but in fact he is about the same distance from the lens as the other guy. They are standing in a line, aren’t they, with the guy to the right maybe a foot closer. One foot doesn’t cause a size change that much due to perspective. And finally, look at Pretti’s feet. You can just see the top of one of his shoes. How short are his legs! Start from his crotch and scan down to where you think his knee would be. Then continue from there to his foot. From knee to foot is about eight inches, at most. For a tall man, that isn’t even close. My measurement is double that. Then compare to the fat guy. His knees are only a couple of inches below Pretti’s, but his feet would start way way down. If then scan back to Pretti: it looks like Pretti is standing on a box, with ludicrously short legs. These are the kinds of mistakes AI always makes. It doesn’t have a clear understanding of perspective because it doesn’t live in the real world. And the people programming it aren’t artists, they are computer guys, so they miss this stuff. Though they should have caught the cap.
Another thing came out today, as it was reported Make the Road New York and other organizations were behind the protests in Minneapolis, proving they are not spontaneous. We knew that, but what is strange in this report is that we find Make the Road (which also has offices in many other states) is heavily funded by the government, getting about half its $31 million annual income from federal grant money. So it isn’t Soros funding it, it is the government itself. MRNY was founded by Andrew Friedman, also a head of the Center for Popular Democracy. CPD is sold as leftist, but it is funded by the Ford Foundation, the Kellogg Foundation, the Surdna Foundation, and the Wyss Foundation, none of which are the least bit leftist. They were all founded by billionaires to benefit the rich. Like Soros, these people and foundations pretend to be leftist, but they are crypto-fascist.
One of Make the Road’s main functions is to protest Trump, and it has been since 2016. So you can see why the Biden administration would fund that. But it turns out Trump funded them 2016-2020 and 2024-now. You would think one of his first orders would be ending funding for groups like this. But no. They are still funded. The Trump administration is funding the protests in Minneapolis. Not only that, but Make the Road is getting large grants directly from DHS, HHS and Justice. Make the Road just opened a glittering new office building in Bushwick, a $36 million, 24,000sqft complex mostly paid for by . . . the city and state of New York. Taxdollars. Again proving this is all vaudeville. All staged to spend your money and bash your little mind to bits.
*She was born Samille Friesen, but we may assume she took the name Cannon from her family, as they do. She is also a Portnoy, and we have seen them many times. The name links her to Warren Beatty, for one. She is also a Thiessen, which may explain everything that her looks don’t already explain. Think Fritz Thyssen, billionaire bankroller of the Nazis. Same name, different spelling. Thiessen is the German spelling, Thyssen is the Dutch. Also see Peter Adolf Thiessen, who led the Soviet (fake) nuclear program.
