\n

Jimmy Kimmel<\/a> said he was left feeling \u201cshocked and sick\u201d over the weekend\u2019s news out of Minneapolis, where federal agents shot and killed 37-year-old ICU nurse Alex Pretti<\/a> while he was filming them.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cJust one atrocity after another being committed by this gang of poorly trained, shamefully led, mask-wearing goons,\u201d Kimmel said. \u201cAnd that is what they are: They\u2019re goons committing vile, heartless and even criminal acts, and it\u2019s sickening to watch.\u201d <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Kimmel said the footage \u201cclearly\u201d shows that Pretti was \u201cexecuted by ICE\u201d then had a damning question for President Donald Trump<\/a>\u2019s supporters.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cIs that the law and order that you voted for if you voted for this?\u201d he asked. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

He said he has family in Minneapolis afraid to go to work and take their kids to school.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cHow does this end? What\u2019s the plan here? Is the plan to just keep doing this in every city that didn\u2019t vote for Donald Trump?\u201d he asked. \u201cDoes anyone on any side believe this is good leadership?\u201d <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

He also called out the right for hypocrisy, as many conservative figures defended the federal agents who shot Pretti. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cIf that was a group of trans swimmers shooting a guy for making a cellphone video, you\u2019d be heating up the electric chairs right now,\u201d he said. \u201cAdmit it. You would. Let\u2019s cut the bullshit already.\u201d <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Kimmel choked up at least twice as he talked about Pretti, including at the end of the monologue as he showed a video of the man at work, honoring a patient who had just died. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
