Dem Amy Klobuchar Says Alex Pretti Was Just a ‘Guy With a Cellphone’ Despite Being Armed – Twitchy

Democrats continue to skip over the fact that ‘peaceful observer’ Alex Pretti was armed when he encountered CBP agents in Minneapolis on Saturday. Agents fatally shot him after resisting arrest. Senator Amy Klobuchar wants to gaslight the public into believing that the only threat he posed was taking video or snapping photos of immigration enforcement agents.

She is a liar by omission

It’s a Democrat Party trait.

Klobuchar wants to ignore that Pretti was armed so she can push the narrative that he was murdered.

She ignores the gun? Remarkable.

Thats the line they are going with, a guy with a cell phone. They recovered the weapon.

Nothing about that tricked out Sig Sauer he had?

Got it.

That extra cellphone was sure shaped like a gun. Were the mag shaped things extra phone batteries?

That’s the story Klobuchar wants you to believe.

Commenters say Democrats always rush to ‘news’ outlets they know will help spread their false narratives with no argument.

DNC; “New narrative! The last one didn’t work! Hurry!”

They always go to their favorite biased news network to spread their propaganda. Why, no push back ever.

They all manipulate current events for personal advantage. There is no honesty or integrity, just narrative for personal gain or advantage.

Democrats don’t care that people, including their own voters, are dying needlessly. Americans are a sacrifice Democrats are willing to make to retake power.

Posters say Klobuchar has higher aspirations than just being the senior Senator from Minnesota.

Nimrod Amy Klobuchar wants to run for Minn. Gov.. she’s just as bad as Walz pic.twitter.com/nXpyycwhhi

Nothing surprises me about her. She’s got her eyes set on being Governor and needs those Liberal votes. It’s all about power.

— MAGA ME (@MyHandleNo) January 25, 2026

Elect her and the problem in MN will continue.

— David Winkelman (@winkelman94750) January 25, 2026

If Minnesota votes for her we may as well build a border wall around it and gift it to Canada.

We don’t foresee a huge outbreak of sanity sweeping across the state anytime soon. So, it feels like Minnesota is already a lost cause. Klobuchar taking the reins as governor would make it a done deal.
