A thread 🧵on how Fox News covered the Border Patrol killing of Alex Pretti. On Fox & Friends Sunday confusion - Pretti was to blame! He threatened agents, Mexico might be involved, communists, agents took his gun, he touched his gun, he did NOT brandish his gun. 1/7
2/7 - Fox & Friends Monday - Producers focused more on the winter storm than the shooting. While disussing the protests in Minneapolis Brian Kilmeade suggested Trump should replace Bovino with Tom Homan, 20 minutes later Trump did just that.
3/7 - The Five - Bovino is out! Walz is in open rebellion. Pretti caused his own death. Jessica Tarlov points out Pretti's gun was taken from him before he was fatally shot. Why was Kyle Rittenhouse a hero and Pretti a villain? Trump was the most responsible person.
4/7 - Special Report with Bret Baier - Tom Homan is taking over. A hotel was ATTACKED! CBP is scaling down because of Homan. Pretti's killing was a PR misstep, Nazis. That poor hotel. This is bad PR. This was not handled well at all. Everyone criticized Trump for this.
5/7 - The Ingraham Angle - Radicals exposed! Hotels were ATTACKED! Obama deported people too! Trump hates death! Those poor ICE and CBP agents. Nazis. They want to provoke ICE. Social media clout! Trump won this battle. Communists. This is a plot. Census!
6/7 - Jesse Watters Primetime - Trump won this one! Walz is a lame duck. This was always the plan. Pretti caused his own death. We have video but it's still unclear. Fingers were bit off! Nazis. A poll from last summer! Civil War ICE mommies Communists. CENSUS PLOT!
7/7 - Hannity - The focus was NOT on Pretti. Minnesota, legacy media mob, communists, criminals, unvetted immigrants, rapists, pedophiles (not Epstein) Obama did this! Renee Good tried to kill an ICE agent. Marxists, communists, socialists, revolutionaries. Guns are dangerous.
