In reality, the extreme focus on Minneapolis protester Alex Pretti’s death is a distraction. It may sound terrible to say because, of course, human life is sacred. (Now, if only the Left accepted this on abortion.) But the real point here is not that Pretti is dead, but what got him that way. And, no, it wasn’t blood-lusting ICE agents salivating for their next victim.
It was this: a vast network of power-hungry demagogues, foreign financiers of intra-US destabilization, astroturfing communist/socialist activists, and expendable useful-idiot protesters.
On a simple level, notice that no one is talking about the up-to-$9 billion Somali fraud scandal anymore, the revelation of which caused Governor Tim “Knucklehead” Walz to scuttle his reelection campaign.
Oh, it threatened to do more such damage to the Democrat Party, too.
Convenient, huh?
Then there’s this: Have you heard of Neville Roy Singham? You should have.
He’s one of the guys who killed Pretti.
No, he doesn’t work for ICE, but likely for fascist China (it’s about as “communist” today as Mussolini). Singham, 71, is an American-born tech mogul who sold IT company Thoughtworks for $785 million in 2017 and then decamped to Shanghai.
He’s also a self-declared Marxist.
And he now devotes his vast fortune and ample free time to his favorite hobby: destabilizing the country that made him rich. Yes—the United States.
That is, Singham funnels millions, and perhaps tens of millions, through nonprofits and shell companies to far-left groups in the U.S. They then use this cash to organize protests and mayhem here in America. So, you know those demonstrations in Minneapolis and elsewhere?
They’re “Made in China”—at least in part.
They’re not organic at all.
Oh, something else: As with globalist Klaus Schwab, Singham also looks like a James Bond villain (below).

Despite this, and as commentator Bill O’Reilly has complained, we hear crickets on Singham. You see, if people learned about him, they’d know the true villains aren’t ICE and President Trump. Can’t have that.
Then there are the other villains. People such as Walz, Governor Gavin Newsom (D-Calif.), Senator Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.), Sandy Cortez (D-Green, Leafy Westchester) and countless other Democrats have demonized ICE, propagandized, and helped catalyze a violent useful-idiot emotional response. Sure, individuals such as Rebecca Good and Alex Pretti are, consequently, now anything but good and pretty. But, hey, you’ve gotta’ break a few eggs to make an omelet, right?
There are also those left-wing/communist activist groups themselves, which join Singham in flying below the radar. They have names such as the Party for Socialism and Liberation and the ANSWER Coalition (trust me, it’s not your answer).
The bottom line is that demagogic Democrat politicians; and agitators, foreign and domestic, created this situation. They have blood on their hands—and may be guilty of insurrection.
As far as the useful idiots who often get themselves killed go, and ICE agents who may sometimes err, the great President Ronald Reagan once framed it well. “Once the dogs of war are unleashed, you must expect that things will happen,” he told demonstrator-enabling professors in 1969. “And people, being human, will make mistakes on both sides.”
Reagan also pointed out, however, that the blame lies largely with the authority figures who, wink-and-nod style, encourage the mayhem (video below).
So. for sure, mistakes will happen on both sides. But the real problem is caused by only one side—the one siding against America and with foreign interlopers and invaders.
