EA-Times Radio VideoCast: Trump’s Authoritarian Regime and the Execution of Alex Pretti

---

I joined PoliticsJOE’s Ava Santina on Monday in a 29-minute analysis of the execution of Alex Pretti in Minneapolis by Donald Trump’s “shock troops”.

I go into detail about how Pretti was killed, taking apart the disinformation of the Trump camp that he was a “would-be assassin”.

I describe the scale of the threat from the 3,000-strong deployment of Immigrations and Customs Enforcement, as well as the Border Patrol that killed Pretti, in Minnesota.

Then, with the Trumpist lies about the execution exposed, I consider, “Can the authoritarian regime be stopped?”
