Obama, Clinton Say Killings by Agents Should Be Wake-Up Call for US

Eagle Intelligence Reports • January 26, 2026 •

Former presidents Barack Obama and Bill Clinton issued pointed calls for America to stand up and defend their values after the second killing of a citizen in Minneapolis by immigration agents that Donald Trump blamed on Democratic “chaos.”

Barack and Michelle Obama aid in a statement that Alex Pretti’s shooting should be a “wake-up call” that core US values “are increasingly under assault.”

Hours later Bill Clinton delivered a fierce indictment of the current administration, saying peaceful protesters “have been arrested, beaten, teargassed, and most searingly, in the cases of Renee Good and Alex Pretti, shot and killed.”

“All of this is unacceptable,” Clinton said in a statement as he urged Americans to “stand up, speak out.”

“If we give our freedoms away after 250 years, we might never get them back.” (AFP)
