Tens of thousands of California health care workers began striking Monday morning amid a long-simmering battle with employer Kaiser Permanente over wages and staffing levels. Members of the United Nurses Association of California/Union of Health Care Professionals — which represents more than 40,000 registered nurses and health workers across California and Hawaii — launched the strike at 7 a.m. Monday after contract talks stalled at the end of 2025. Workers have accused Kaiser of failing to invest in staffing despite a state-backed pay bump...

As federal agents and protesters clash over the Trump's immigration enforcement agenda biased media outlets have rushed to frame the tension in a way that supports their desired narrative.

The skirmish that led to Saturday's fatal shooting of an agitator by Border Patrol agents in Minneapolis and the response that followed were driven by a complex network of far-left organizations with a wide range of causes, a Fox News Digital investigation found. A coordinated web of encrypted chats, street alerts and tracking of ICE "Abductors" in a sophisticated database reviewed by Fox News Digital shows that agitators were already mobilized at the scene where 37-year-old Alex Pretti was killed minutes before any shots were fired. ICE and Border Patrol agents were there to arrest an illegal immigrant criminal, and Pretti and others were there, outside a donut shop, to meet them as part of a strategic pattern of organized interference with law enforcement operations.

As federal agents and protesters clash over the Trump administration's immigration enforcement agenda, tensions have continuously escalated in Minneapolis, Minnesota, leaving both the city and nation divided. Biased media outlets and commentators have then rushed to frame the tension in a way that supports their desired narrative. Federal agents have shot and killed two US citizens in the city in the last three weeks, creating even deeper divides between Americans.

Congressional leaders are pushing back against the Trump administration's account of the killing of Alex Pretti, the 37-year-old U.S. citizen shot dead by federal officers during an immigration enforcement protest in Minneapolis Saturday. Sen. Tina Smith, D-Minn., accused the administration of a "cover-up" Sunday and said the federal government is ignoring a court order that allows state investigators to access evidence in Pretti's killing.

A complex network of far-left protest groups have been accused of pushing ICU nurse Alex Pretti to confront immigration officers in Minnesota before capitalizing on his death to bolster their anti-ICE message. A sophisticated database of 'ICE trackers' and demonstration organizers, uncovered in a report from Fox News, were allegedly ready to deploy agitators to the scene just moments after Pretti was shot dead by border patrol agents on Saturday. According to the report, Pretti and other protesters were in the area because they received advanced warning that immigration officers were there to detain an illegal migrant.

It's time to de-escalate in Minneapolis, Mr. President. Not because you're wrong to enforce immigration law, nor to go after fraudsters who've stolen billions in federal funds — but because these enforcement tactics won't turn the tide, and instead are backfiring. Swing voters — Hispanics and independents who turned to you at the last election — see US citizens dying at federal agents' hands, and recoil in horror.

Federal agents shot and killed a 37-year-old Minneapolis resident, Alex Jeffrey Pretti, at about 9 a.m. Central time on Saturday morning. A video shared with The New York Times by a witness and her lawyer, as well as other video footage posted on social media, documents the violent scene, where agents appear to fire at least 10 shots in a span of five seconds. The footage seems to contradict the Department of Homeland Security's account of the encounter, which the agency said began after an individual armed with a handgun approached the federal agents with the intent to "massacre" them.
