25.01.2026 โ‡ข The Day of the Alex Pretti Evidence Dispute
โŒจDutch editorial priority on January 25 centered on the aftermath of the ICE shooting of Alex Pretti in Minneapolis. Morning headlines focused on witness testimony and forensic details that contradicted the Trump administration's claim that Pretti was armed. Outlets like de Volkskrant and NRC moved from reporting the incident to conducting minute-by-minute reconstructions, while RTL Nieuws highlighted the arrival of the National Guard to restrain federal agents.
By afternoon, the narrative shifted toward institutional conflict. Editors prioritized Democratic threats to shut down the government to force ICE policy changes and reported on federal authorities labeling the victim a "domestic terrorist."
Domestically, coverage was split between the Holocaust commemoration in Amsterdam, where speakers warned of rising fascism, and the final stages of the Dutch cabinet formation. Evening headlines consolidated around a severe winter storm causing mass power outages in the US and the uncertain fate of Dutch IS-prisoners transferred to Iraq.
