Trump uses photo of Dem senator to attack Alex Pretti after fatal DHS shooting



President Donald Trump used Sen. Elizabeth Warren's (D-MA) tribute to Alex Pretti in an attempt to smear the slain 37-year-old nurse.

In a Truth Social post on Thursday, Trump shared a video of what was thought to be Pretti getting into an altercation with DHS agents days before his death.

"Caring for people was at the core of who he was," Warren says in the video. "He was incapable of causing harm. Alex carried patience, compassion, and calm as a steady light within him."

As Warren speaks, Pretti appears engaged in a scuffle with law enforcement days before he was killed.

"Even at the very end, that light was there. I recognized his familiar stillness and signature calm composure," the senator notes.

Trump also shared remarks from one of his fans, calling the video "The Story of Alex Pretti."

Asked about Pretti earlier this week, Trump replied, "I love everybody. I love all of our people. I love his family. And it's a very sad situation."

DOJ Epstein files surface unverified allegation naming Justice Clarence Thomas



A newly released tranche of Justice Department records tied to Jeffrey Epstein includes an unverified allegation that names conservative Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, according to documents disclosed Friday. The claim, sent by email to federal prosecutors in New York and two federal judges, was discussed internally last August but offers no evidence and has not resulted in any charges or investigation involving Thomas. The accuser, who claimed to be an Epstein victim, alleged she was raped by mobster Johnny Martorano and further alleged — without corroboration — that Martorano referenced Thomas and that Thomas sexually assaulted her as a child. Federal prosecutors acknowledged the complaint internally as part of standard protocol, underscoring that the sprawling Epstein file release contains numerous raw, unsubstantiated claims that do not establish wrongdoing.
