Dems Revolt Against Chuck Schumer, Side with Trump - Senate Will Vote YES
WASHINGTON D.C. — In a stunning blow to Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and the radical progressive wing of the Democratic Party, Senator John Fetterman has announced he will vote YES to fund the Department of Homeland Security, effectively siding with President Trump’s law and order agenda.
The Pennsylvania Democrat’s decision effectively kills the far-left’s attempt to stage a revolt against ICE funding, signaling that even some Democrats are realizing that "abolishing ICE" is political suicide. Fetterman rejected frantic pleas from members of his own party, raising serious questions about Schumer's ability to control his caucus.
FETTERMAN REJECTS "DEFUND ICE" MANIA
Fetterman’s statement on Monday came amidst a coordinated pressure campaign by all seven Democratic members of the U.S. House from Pennsylvania. Led by Rep. Chris Deluzio—a potential 2028 primary challenger—the group sent a formal letter demanding Fetterman oppose the funding unless radical "reforms" were included.
Rep. Brendan Boyle, another potential rival, claimed ICE is "operating like a lawless, out-of-control agency" and declared, "We cannot send it another blank check."
Fetterman, however, refused to take the bait. "I reject the calls to defund or abolish ICE," Fetterman said bluntly. While he criticized specific tactics used in the recent Minneapolis operation and called for DHS Secretary Kristi Noem’s firing, he drew a hard line in the sand regarding the budget.
"I will never vote to shut our government down, especially our Defense Department," Fetterman stated. He correctly noted that a partial shutdown wouldn't even defund ICE, pointing out that the agency already received $178 billion from the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, legislation he opposed but now acknowledges as the law of the land.
HOUSE DEMS MELTDOWN
The split exposes a deep fracture within the Pennsylvania Democratic delegation. Progressives like Rep. Summer Lee and establishment figures like Rep. Madeleine Dean are now openly at war with their state’s senior senator. They argue that "funding without adequate reform risks endorsing current approaches," but their threats have fallen on deaf ears in the Senate.
Fetterman’s refusal to play games with national security aligns him closer to his Republican counterpart, Senator Dave McCormick. McCormick reaffirmed his support for Border Patrol and ICE on Sunday, though he did call for a "full investigation" into the death of armed protester Alex Pretti in Minneapolis.
TRUMP WINS AGAIN
For President Trump and Senate Republicans, Fetterman’s defiance is a major victory. It ensures that the Senate will vote YES to keep the lights on at DHS, allowing immigration enforcement to continue unabated.
The "Revolt" against Schumer is real. As the Senate prepares to vote, it is clear that the radical left’s stranglehold on the Democratic Party is slipping, and common sense—at least on the issue of funding the government—is prevailing. Fetterman may wear a hoodie, but on this vote, he’s wearing the jersey of law enforcement.
New Video in Alex Pretti Shooting Shows TRUTH - Liberal Narrative Destroyed
MINNEAPOLIS, MN — The liberal narrative surrounding Alex Pretti, the VA nurse touted by the media as a "peaceful legal observer" before being shot by Border Patrol agents, has been shattered by a bombshell new video.
Released by The News Movement on Wednesday, the footage from January 13—just days before his death—shows an unhinged Pretti spitting at federal agents, destroying government property, and openly carrying a firearm in his waistband.
The shocking video directly contradicts the image of the "kindly, gentle nurse" painted by Democrats and the mainstream media. Instead, it depicts a violent agitator terrorizing law enforcement officers who were simply trying to do their jobs.
SPITTING, KICKING, AND A GUN
The footage captures a man, confirmed by Pretti's own family to be Alex Pretti, launching a chaotic assault on a federal SUV. He is seen yelling profanities, flashing both middle fingers, and violently kicking the vehicle's taillight until it shatters.
As agents exit the vehicle to subdue him, Pretti resists, forcing them to take him to the ground. But the most chilling moment comes after he stands up. As he steps away from the agents, what appears to be a firearm is clearly visible in his waistband.
Rather than leaving the scene, Pretti remained with the mob, continuing to scream obscenities at the officers. This behavior raises serious questions: Was Pretti already known to federal agents as an armed and dangerous threat long before the fatal encounter on January 24?
TRUMP REACTS: "SUCH A PEACEFUL PROTESTER"
The reaction from the right was swift and vindicated. President Donald Trump took to Truth Social to mock the media's coverage, sarcastically posting, "Such a peaceful protester."
Donald Trump Jr. echoed the sentiment on X, writing, "Just a peaceful legal observer," while commentator Tim Pool asked, "Could he have been known to the agents... Known violent extremist, armed, violent, actively resisting?"
Others were more blunt. "Now we know that Alex Pretti was not a kindly gentle nurse… he was a CRIMINAL!!! An ARMED, VIOLENT, DANGEROUS, UNHINGED criminal," wrote Matt Van Swol.

FAMILY SPIN CONTROL
Facing irrefutable video evidence, Pretti’s family and their attorney, Steve Schleicher, attempted to spin the incident as an attack on Pretti. "A week before Alex was gunned down... he was violently assaulted by a group of ICE agents," Schleicher claimed, ignoring the video evidence of Pretti destroying federal property and spitting at officers.
While the investigation into the January 24 shooting continues, this new footage establishes a pattern of violent, armed resistance that the media can no longer ignore. Alex Pretti was not just an observer; he was an active combatant against federal law enforcement.
