Kare 11 local news just read, in full, this statement from Michael and Susan Pretti, the parents of Alex Pretti.

"Please get the truth out about our son."
Statement from Michael and Susan Pretti Parents of Alex Jeffrey Pretti “We are heartbroken but also very angry. Alex was a kindhearted soul who cared deeply for his family and friends and also the American veterans whom he cared for as an ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA hospital. Alex wanted to make a difference in this world. Unfortunately, he will not be with us to see his impact. I do not throw around the ‘hero’ term lightly. However, his last thought and act was to protect a woman. The sickening lies told about our son by the administration are reprehensible and disgusting. Alex is clearly not holding a gun when attacked by Trump’s murdering and cowardly ICE thugs. He had his phone in his right hand and his empty left hand is raised above his head while trying to protect the woman ICE just pushed down, all while being pepper sprayed. Please get the truth out about our son. He was a good man. Thank you.

I'm a professional journalist and a member of the SPJ. And yes, this is 100% what the media should do.

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

Hey! I forgot to introduce you all to... The Pants Bears! They're Ghost Bears, but I used a brown contrast paint for the legs, which makes them look like they're wearing leather pants.

Bad ‘Mechs – Albatross

This month's Bad 'Mech is the Albatross! Unlike an actual albatross, it can't fly, but it still has hollow bones—not the thing you want in an assault 'Mech.

As we hurdle into 2026, it helps to look back on 2025 and say, "Man, that year sucked." Unless you were a Sarna editor! Then it sucked slightly less because you made the best BattleTech wiki that much better. Here's our year-end review!
