The Washington Post published a clear video of federal agents removing Alex Pretti's handgun moments before he was fatally shot. There's nothing in the video to suggest Pretti even reached for his weapon.

Senate Democrats to block government funding after second fatal shooting in Minneapolis
The move could force a partial government shutdown next weekend. Lawmakers are set to vote on spending bills this week but may look to split Homeland Security from other agencies.

Alex Pretti was recording the actions of federal agents in Minneapolis when he was fatally shot by a Border Patrol officer.
The 37-year-old ICU nurse was described by the Trump administration as a “domestic terrorist.” Friends and family rejected that label.
