[00:00:49] Minneapolis after another shooting
[00:00:51] involving federal officers and a person
[00:00:54] who is attempting to interfere with them
[00:00:56] in their pursuit of their legal duty.
[00:00:58] That person's name was Alex Prey.
[00:01:00] According to NBC News, a federal
[00:01:02] immigration agent shot and killed the
[00:01:04] 37year-old Minneapolis man on Saturday.
[00:01:07] This, of course, is the second shooting
[00:01:08] after the shooting of Renee Good, who
[00:01:10] was the woman who attempted to obstruct
[00:01:12] federal law enforcement and then hit an
[00:01:15] agent with her car before being shot.
[00:01:17] The man, again identified by family as
[00:01:20] Alex Prey, was an intensive care nurse.
[00:01:22] The circumstances around his final
[00:01:24] moments were caught on multiple angles
[00:01:26] on video. We're going to go through all
[00:01:28] of the details and try to determine
[00:01:30] culpability, legal, and moral. We're
[00:01:32] also going to go through why it is that
[00:01:35] the left continues to ramp up this
[00:01:37] chaos. They are doing this on purpose.
[00:01:39] There is no question this is a
[00:01:41] purposeful attempt to undermine federal
[00:01:43] law enforcement in their pursuit of
[00:01:44] duty. And if that ends with ugly images
[00:01:47] on TV, that is the thing they want. They
[00:01:49] want the ugly images on the TV. They are
[00:01:51] desperate for the ugly images on the TV
[00:01:53] because they believe that that is going
[00:01:55] to undermine the Trump administration's
[00:01:57] immigration program and the Trump
[00:01:59] administration itself. That is why they
[00:02:01] are doing this. Let us be very clear.
[00:02:03] There are more people being deported
[00:02:04] from red states than from blue states
[00:02:06] right now. But you're not seeing these
[00:02:07] ugly images happening in red states.
[00:02:09] Why? The answer is because red states
[00:02:12] are helping to facilitate the
[00:02:13] deportation of people who should not be
[00:02:16] here. Red states are helping to ensure
[00:02:18] that criminal illegal immigrants are not
[00:02:20] in the system. that when they arrest
[00:02:22] somebody for a crime and that person is
[00:02:24] an illegal immigrant, they then tell
[00:02:25] federal law enforcement, federal
[00:02:27] authorities, ICE and Border Patrol so
[00:02:29] the person can be deported. Blue states,
[00:02:31] sanctuary cities, sanctuary states are
[00:02:33] not doing that. That is what
[00:02:34] necessitates more boots on the ground
[00:02:37] from the federal government in these
[00:02:38] areas. And then local and state
[00:02:41] politicians have been going out there
[00:02:43] and suggesting that this amounts to
[00:02:44] Gestapo-like occupation. They've been
[00:02:47] driving their own supporters out into
[00:02:48] the streets. Some of those supporters
[00:02:50] are then obstructing federal law
[00:02:52] enforcement committing federal crimes.
[00:02:54] When that happens, the likelihood of
[00:02:56] terrible incidents goes way up. That is
[00:02:58] the simple logic. And that appears to be
[00:03:00] something that left-wing politicians
[00:03:02] want that they are desperate for. It
[00:03:05] appears to be something they think they
[00:03:06] can run on. that if they put ugly images
[00:03:08] on your TV of immigration agents in
[00:03:12] confrontations with Americans and if
[00:03:14] some of those incidents end with death,
[00:03:16] then that means they will be able to
[00:03:18] undermine their political opposition.
[00:03:19] And that is despicable. It truly is
[00:03:22] because again, we should all Democrats,
[00:03:24] Republicans, and independents be in
[00:03:26] favor of criminal illegal immigrants
[00:03:28] going home, not being in the United
[00:03:31] States. This is not a controversial
[00:03:33] issue. That that right there is not a
[00:03:35] controversial issue. The necessity for
[00:03:38] larger federal presence, for harder
[00:03:40] implementation measures is only being
[00:03:43] made necessary because there are
[00:03:45] Democratic politicians, members of the
[00:03:47] legacy media who have decided to ramp
[00:03:49] all of this up and to facilitate the
[00:03:51] chaos. This is indeed planned. That is a
[00:03:53] reality.
[00:03:55] So that ends with bad situations. And
[00:03:57] we've been saying this for months that
[00:03:58] if you have the governor of Minnesota
[00:04:00] Tim Walls coming out and saying that ICE
[00:04:02] agents are like the Gestapo or like the
[00:04:04] KKK, that if you have Minneapolis Mayor
[00:04:07] Jacob Fry saying the same, if you have
[00:04:09] all Democratic politicians suggesting
[00:04:11] that protesting ICE agents is not only a
[00:04:14] decent thing to do, but a positive and
[00:04:16] good thing to do. and then treating
[00:04:19] obstruction of federal law enforcement
[00:04:22] officers as a form of legitimate
[00:04:23] protest, which is the gray line they
[00:04:26] always seem to blur. If you do that, you
[00:04:29] will end up with more confrontations,
[00:04:30] more violence, and more possible deaths
[00:04:33] under disputed circumstances. We have
[00:04:36] more on this in a moment. First, this

[00:06:49] So again, we're going to go through the
[00:06:50] tape in just a moment. What happened is
[00:06:52] that on Saturday morning,
[00:06:54] Alex appeared to come to the aid of a
[00:06:56] person who'd been pushed to the ground
[00:06:58] by immigration agents. So there were a
[00:07:00] couple of people who were out there
[00:07:01] filming the immigration agents while
[00:07:03] they were attempting to effectuate some
[00:07:05] sort of arrest, apparently obstructing
[00:07:08] traffic. Immigration agents come over.
[00:07:11] There are two people there. One is Prey,
[00:07:13] the other is a woman. The woman seems to
[00:07:14] be pushed to the ground. Prey then
[00:07:16] appears to move toward her. An officer
[00:07:19] sprays Prey in the face before dragging
[00:07:20] him to the ground. And then there are
[00:07:22] multiple officers who are surrounding
[00:07:24] Prey. At some point, it appears that the
[00:07:27] agents believe that Prey has a gun or is
[00:07:30] going for a gun or both and they open
[00:07:32] fire on him and he is shot 10 times and
[00:07:34] he dies.
[00:07:36] That is the cleanest way of describing
[00:07:38] the circumstance. And as we'll see, it
[00:07:41] then turned into our usual political
[00:07:43] roar shack test in which the left
[00:07:45] proclaimed that it was a case of pure
[00:07:46] murder. And some members of the federal
[00:07:48] government, in my opinion, were not
[00:07:51] honest about what happened on the
[00:07:53] ground, and told a story that does not
[00:07:56] seem to match up with the tape. Now,
[00:07:57] again, there will be full investigations
[00:07:59] of all. There should be full
[00:08:00] investigations. And anybody who's
[00:08:01] claiming there should not be, of course
[00:08:03] there should be. There should always be
[00:08:04] full investigations, not because I
[00:08:07] believe the officers are guilty of
[00:08:08] murder or manslaughter. There should be
[00:08:10] a full investigation because I believe
[00:08:12] that it will exonerate the officers. And
[00:08:14] even if it didn't exonerate the
[00:08:15] officers, you need the full
[00:08:16] investigation in order to ensure that
[00:08:18] there's continued trust in law
[00:08:20] enforcement. Those full investigations
[00:08:23] should go go forward. They should be
[00:08:25] perfectly objective. They should not be
[00:08:27] railroadings as we've seen in the past
[00:08:29] with say Derek Schovin and George Floyd.
[00:08:30] They should not be adjudicated in the
[00:08:32] media. That's why the best response from
[00:08:34] everybody from the federal government to
[00:08:36] walls to fry it should always be the
[00:08:38] same. There will be a full thorough
[00:08:40] investigation and at the end of the day
[00:08:43] the law enforcement apparatus will take
[00:08:45] stock of what has happened and all the
[00:08:46] facts will be made available to you.
[00:08:48] That is what the response should always
[00:08:49] be that on all sides because that is the
[00:08:51] only way that we end up with the
[00:08:53] impartial administration of the law.
[00:08:55] That is the only way that happens.
[00:08:56] Unfortunately, that never happens. So,
[00:08:58] we are now left with the tape. So, we're
[00:09:01] going to go through the tape and then I
[00:09:02] want to get into why it is. Again, the
[00:09:04] biggest issue is why this stuff keeps
[00:09:06] happening in the first place. And no, it
[00:09:08] is not just a matter of individual
[00:09:10] incidents that are randomly cropping up.
[00:09:12] This is not random. It is happening in a
[00:09:14] specific city at a specific time in a
[00:09:16] specific place for a reason. It is being
[00:09:18] driven deliberately, again, I can't
[00:09:20] emphasize this enough. It is being
[00:09:21] deliberately driven by members of the
[00:09:24] Democratic higher echelons. It is being
[00:09:26] specifically driven by the legacy media.
[00:09:28] You are not seeing it. I will say it
[00:09:30] again. You are not seeing this in red
[00:09:32] areas. And more deportations are being
[00:09:34] carried out in those areas than in the
[00:09:36] blue areas. That is just a statistical
[00:09:38] fact. More deportations are taking place
[00:09:41] in Texas and Florida than are taking
[00:09:43] place in Minneapolis.
[00:09:45] But all the tape you're seeing is from
[00:09:46] Minneapolis. And there's a reason for
[00:09:47] that because when you spur people to
[00:09:50] confrontation, especially confrontation
[00:09:52] with federal law enforcement, bad things
[00:09:54] happen. Okay, so here is the first
[00:09:56] angle. We have several angles here. Here
[00:09:59] is angle number one of the incident
[00:10:00] involving Alex Prey.
[00:10:03] >> Okay, so you can see now that this is
[00:10:05] the end of the incident. Prey is being
[00:10:07] wrestled to the ground. He's resisting.
[00:10:08] Okay, stop it right there for a second.
[00:10:10] First of all, don't resist federal law
[00:10:12] enforcement. That is a crime. Do not do
[00:10:15] it. Do not obstruct federal law
[00:10:16] enforcement and do not resist arrest.
[00:10:18] Don't do that thing. So, they're
[00:10:20] wrestling Alex Prey to the ground.
[00:10:21] Again, this is the tail end. It's sort
[00:10:24] of a third person far away shot across a
[00:10:27] couple of cars. And as you can see, he
[00:10:29] appears to be on the ground. The angle
[00:10:30] isn't particularly good. You just see a
[00:10:32] bunch of people on top of him. Okay,
[00:10:34] they're on top of him. They're wrestling
[00:10:35] him to the ground trying to subdue him.
[00:10:36] It looks like five federal agents on top
[00:10:38] of him and one walking in the background
[00:10:39] and a couple more nearby. One appears to
[00:10:41] be punching him,
[00:10:44] right? And then and then shots are fired
[00:10:46] and he's dead.
[00:10:48] >> And multiple shots afterward.
[00:10:51] Are you kidding me, dude?
[00:10:54] Somebody seems to be filming this from
[00:10:56] inside a nearby building, maybe a cafe
[00:10:57] or something.
[00:10:59] >> Okay, so that is angle number one.
[00:11:01] Again, very difficult to see what Prey
[00:11:04] is doing on the ground. And sure, there
[00:11:05] can be circumstances which somebody on
[00:11:08] the ground surrounded by officers is
[00:11:09] still a threat to the officers.
[00:11:10] Remember, the legal standard here is
[00:11:13] that a reasonable officer must believe
[00:11:15] that there is an imminent threat of
[00:11:17] grave bodily harm. That is the legal
[00:11:19] standard here. Now, could that happen
[00:11:21] with a person who is being piled on by
[00:11:23] multiple? Sure. Let's say, for example,
[00:11:25] the person has a gun and the person goes
[00:11:27] for the gun or let's say that the
[00:11:29] officer believes the person has a gun
[00:11:31] for some good reason, like the person
[00:11:32] has a gun, and then the person doesn't
[00:11:35] have the gun, which may in fact be the
[00:11:37] case, but the officer still believes he
[00:11:38] has the gun. And so, an accident happens
[00:11:41] where the officer believes a thing that
[00:11:43] isn't true, but in the moment, it's
[00:11:44] absolutely credible that the thing could
[00:11:46] be true. Now you see the sort of
[00:11:47] circumstance where somebody goes for
[00:11:49] their waistband and earlier they've been
[00:11:51] identified as having a gun and in their
[00:11:53] waistband isn't the gun, it's something
[00:11:54] else and they get shot, right? Officers
[00:11:56] have to make these decisions in the
[00:11:58] moment. That is the reality of the law
[00:12:01] enforcement job is you have to make that
[00:12:03] decision right there in the moment.
[00:12:05] Okay, so that's angle number one. Angle
[00:12:07] number two,
[00:12:08] this angle is a lot closer up. This is
[00:12:12] if if the first angle was sort of from
[00:12:15] far away here. You can see the woman
[00:12:17] gets pushed to the ground and Py puts up
[00:12:19] his hand. He's holding himself in one
[00:12:20] hand. They spray him with some pepper
[00:12:23] spray.
[00:12:24] Okay. And then they wrestle him to the
[00:12:26] ground. He seems to be trying to still
[00:12:28] get this woman up.
[00:12:30] >> Multiple officers wrestle him to the
[00:12:31] ground.
[00:12:32] >> They're on top of him.
[00:12:35] Okay. And then he's now surrounded. You
[00:12:37] can see the officers still surrounding
[00:12:38] him. Somebody's blowing a whistle.
[00:12:39] Obviously, there are multiple protesters
[00:12:40] nearby. There's another woman who's
[00:12:42] attempting to resist arrest, it appears.
[00:12:44] And then you hear one shot and then
[00:12:46] multiple shots.
[00:12:48] A lot of shots, right? And then Alex
[00:12:50] Prey dead on the ground.
[00:12:52] >> What the did you just do?
[00:12:55] >> Okay, so again, when this stuff happens
[00:12:57] in the moment, very difficult to tell
[00:12:58] what's happening in the scrum. Okay,
[00:13:01] here's angle number three, and this is
[00:13:03] the one where it looks as though Alex
[00:13:06] Prey was disarmed before the shot. Okay.
[00:13:08] So, you can see this this one is, you
[00:13:10] know, kind of closer on his face. Okay.
[00:13:12] They they bring him to the ground.
[00:13:15] So, they get him down to the ground,
[00:13:18] wrestling him to the ground. Multiple
[00:13:19] whistles going off, obviously. Big crowd
[00:13:21] around him. Now, you can see his waist
[00:13:24] in this particular angle. Alex Freddy.
[00:13:28] And you can see one officer reaching in,
[00:13:29] reaching in
[00:13:32] and walking away with what looks like
[00:13:34] the gun. And then multiple shots going
[00:13:36] off again. Very difficult to tell just
[00:13:38] from looking at these tapes what exactly
[00:13:41] is going on. Here is the slow motion
[00:13:43] tracking the man's gun. Okay, so as you
[00:13:45] can see, here is one officer. He reaches
[00:13:47] for Prey. He reaches to PR's waist. He
[00:13:51] does not have anything in his hand,
[00:13:53] right? You can see it's frozen. He
[00:13:55] doesn't have anything to say. He reaches
[00:13:56] in.
[00:13:58] He walks away. He's going to stand up in
[00:14:00] a second, this officer, and there's
[00:14:02] going to be a gun in his hand.
[00:14:05] And you can see he's sort of wrestling
[00:14:06] with Freddy. He's on his back there and
[00:14:09] a moment it's going to freeze and you
[00:14:10] see the gun is now in his hand. That's
[00:14:13] what it appears to be in this tape. And
[00:14:14] then he walks away and he clearly has a
[00:14:16] gun in his hand.
[00:14:19] Okay. And then as he is running away,
[00:14:21] you can see there's the gun in his hand.
[00:14:23] So at this point, Alex Freddy does not
[00:14:24] have a gun on him. One of the agents
[00:14:27] withdraws a gun. You can see the agent
[00:14:28] withdraw the gun from his waistband
[00:14:30] there and then start shooting. Now, it
[00:14:32] is quite possible the New York Post is
[00:14:33] reporting that the gun that was taken
[00:14:35] away from Prey misfired.
[00:14:38] It's a SIG. That SIG apparently has a
[00:14:41] record sometimes of misfiring, going off
[00:14:43] accidentally. And it's possible that the
[00:14:45] gun went off accidentally. And that's
[00:14:47] what triggered the officers to start
[00:14:48] shooting. They hear a shot. They know
[00:14:50] that he had a gun on him. They don't
[00:14:51] know that the gun has been removed
[00:14:52] because it's difficult to see. And so,
[00:14:54] they shoot him to death.
[00:14:57] Okay. In the immediate aftermath, ICE
[00:14:59] agents were trying to get emergency
[00:15:01] medical services. Obviously, people were
[00:15:03] yelling at them and screaming at them,
[00:15:04] which is sort of the usual in situations
[00:15:06] like this, unfortunately. You see EMS is
[00:15:08] there,
[00:15:11] people screaming at them, and these are
[00:15:14] the circumstances obviously under which
[00:15:17] ICE and Border Patrol are having to
[00:15:18] work. Now, it is important to recognize
[00:15:20] here
[00:15:21] >> that Border Patrol, it's important to
[00:15:24] recognize here the Border Patrol, it was
[00:15:26] a Border Patrol agent apparently who
[00:15:27] shot him. These are Border Patrol
[00:15:28] officers. The reason Border Patrol is
[00:15:30] even in Minneapolis is because of the
[00:15:32] resistance to ICE. Normally, internal
[00:15:34] immigration enforcement is not done by
[00:15:36] Border Patrol. It is done by ICE. When
[00:15:39] there is significant resistance on the
[00:15:40] ground, that's when ICE might call in
[00:15:43] extra help from Border Patrol. Then the
[00:15:46] scene of the shooting was blocked off by
[00:15:47] the protesters and you can see they
[00:15:50] basically decide they're going to block
[00:15:51] off the area, set up their own
[00:15:53] autonomous zone essentially.
[00:15:59] Okay, this sort of activity is likely to
[00:16:02] result in more violence.
[00:16:04] This is likely to result in more
[00:16:05] violence. Valorizing people who get in
[00:16:07] the way of law enforcement while they're
[00:16:09] attempting to do their job is likely to
[00:16:10] result in more violence.
[00:16:13] Stop blocking ICE from doing its job.
[00:16:15] Stop resisting arrest. If you do resist
[00:16:18] arrest while you have a gun on you,
[00:16:20] there's a much higher likelihood that
[00:16:21] the police are going to perceive you as
[00:16:23] a threat of physical violence. And
[00:16:25] that's not a question of a normal
[00:16:26] protester carrying a gun, as we'll get
[00:16:28] to in a bit. That is a question of don't
[00:16:30] resist arrest while obstructing a
[00:16:32] federal law enforcement operation while
[00:16:35] carrying a gun. Put all those things
[00:16:36] together and that is going to make your
[00:16:38] risk significantly higher than it
[00:16:39] otherwise would be. get to more on this
[00:16:41] in just one second. First, you know, for
[00:16:44] me, sleep is really, really important
[00:16:46] because if my brain is not working
[00:16:48] properly, and that's what happens when I
[00:16:49] don't sleep, well, the show just isn't
[00:16:50] as good. I'm not there for my family.
[00:16:52] Well, that's why I rely on Helix Sleep
[00:16:54] and I have for years. Finding the right
[00:16:55] mattress doesn't have to be complicated.

[00:17:17] increase in their deep sleep cycle while
[00:17:19] sleeping on a Helix mattress, which is

[00:17:54] And well, the protesters then gathered
[00:17:56] to talk about how they want to shut ICE
[00:17:59] down, which of course is their goal.
[00:18:01] I SHUT IT DOWN. EVERY CITY, EVERY
[00:18:06] [cheering]
[00:18:07] CITY, EVERY TOWN
[00:18:09] IT
[00:18:12] >> OKAY, there's open coordination, by the
[00:18:14] way, happening via signal in Minneapolis
[00:18:16] between all of these protesters. And we
[00:18:18] say protesters, very often we mean
[00:18:19] people who are legitimately stopping law
[00:18:22] enforcement from doing their jobs.
[00:18:23] According to Cam Higgby reporting on all
[00:18:26] of this, there are 754 members in one of
[00:18:29] these chats. The capacity is about a
[00:18:31] thousand each day at midday. New people
[00:18:33] cycle in for their shift. There a bunch
[00:18:35] of different chats for different zones
[00:18:36] of Minnesota. They coordinate on where
[00:18:38] to go, how to obstruct operations. They
[00:18:41] they have what they call patrol zones in
[00:18:44] order to ensure
[00:18:46] that there are people there every time
[00:18:48] ICE shows up to effectuate some sort of
[00:18:50] arrest. Protesters are coordinating on
[00:18:53] their own dispatch calls. By the way,
[00:18:56] that is a thing they're doing. They they
[00:18:59] go online and they tell people when they
[00:19:00] discover a vehicle and then they have
[00:19:03] documentation, right, going on. The
[00:19:05] documentation is is not obviously for
[00:19:07] some sort of prosecution. The
[00:19:09] documentation is happening very often in
[00:19:11] real time in order to get protesters to
[00:19:13] the place where ICE is doing the thing
[00:19:15] in order to get in many cases lawb
[00:19:17] breakakers obstructing law enforcement.
[00:19:20] Again, Cam Higgby doing some excellent
[00:19:22] reporting over there. Some of the people
[00:19:24] who've been participating this include,
[00:19:26] for example, Minnesota State
[00:19:27] Representative Alex Falconer, who is
[00:19:29] coordinating signal groups. Here, here
[00:19:32] is this state legislator involved in
[00:19:34] coordinating this.
[00:19:36] >> We've got a couple groups uh on the the
[00:19:38] the app Signal um that we would love for
[00:19:41] you to join. Whether or not you want to
[00:19:44] be a part of the resistance network, I
[00:19:46] fully understand you may not be
[00:19:48] comfortable with that, but you can help
[00:19:50] us in a lot of ways by uh sending an
[00:19:52] alert that if you see any suspicious
[00:19:54] vehicles, any traffic, if you know of
[00:19:56] anybody that is being targeted that's
[00:19:58] being detained, we have resources
[00:19:59] immediately available um that we can uh
[00:20:03] send to you, send to their family, get
[00:20:04] them legal help, help the families if
[00:20:07] they need food. If people are afraid to
[00:20:08] leave their homes to get to get food,
[00:20:10] we're working with the food shelves to
[00:20:12] try to figure out a way to deliver
[00:20:13] groceries. I know yesterday uh apartment
[00:20:16] complexes needed their parking lots
[00:20:18] plowed and people were being taken as
[00:20:20] they were moving their cars. We can move
[00:20:22] your car for you. Just please let
[00:20:24] anything small, large, we are here for
[00:20:27] you. Um and we will stand with you.
[00:20:29] We'll stand for you. Um okay, these are
[00:20:32] these state legislators who are going
[00:20:34] out of their way now to facilitate all
[00:20:36] of this. And they're not just
[00:20:36] facilitating protests. Let's be clear.
[00:20:38] If you know that these protesters are
[00:20:40] getting involved in the obstruction of
[00:20:41] federal law enforcement efforts, if you
[00:20:43] know that's happening, then encouraging
[00:20:45] that is not a good thing to do. And we
[00:20:47] know that there's been violence
[00:20:49] obviously against a wide variety of ICE
[00:20:51] officers. We've talked about the
[00:20:52] shooting of ICE officers or the
[00:20:53] attempted ramming of ICE officers.
[00:20:56] We've talked about the fact that
[00:20:57] actually on Saturday afternoon, there's
[00:21:00] a picture released by DHS showing the
[00:21:04] bloody stump of a finger of one of the
[00:21:07] ICE officers. Apparently, protesters are
[00:21:10] now biting the fingers off of federal
[00:21:11] officers in some cases. Trisha Mclofflin
[00:21:13] said that this person is going to lose
[00:21:15] his finger. That a chunk of his finger
[00:21:17] was then shown in a jar by DHS.
[00:21:21] Meanwhile, in the immediate aftermath of
[00:21:23] all of this happening in Minneapolis,
[00:21:25] according to the New York Post, anti-ICE
[00:21:26] protesters violently swarmed a
[00:21:28] Minneapolis hotel where they believed
[00:21:30] federal officers were staying, hurling
[00:21:31] items at people inside, smashing its
[00:21:33] windows and graffitiing f ICE across the
[00:21:35] building's facade on Sunday. The large
[00:21:37] mob descended on the Home Two Suites by
[00:21:39] Hilton Hotel late on Sunday as tensions
[00:21:40] gripped the Twin Cities one day after
[00:21:42] the killing of Alex Prey. Apparently,
[00:21:44] they shoved and hurled the object at a
[00:21:46] Minneapolis Police Department officer
[00:21:48] and others just inside the hotel's lobby
[00:21:50] and attempted to push their way in,
[00:21:52] forcing those inside to use two large
[00:21:53] vending machines to physically block the
[00:21:55] rowdy demonstrators.
[00:21:57] The protesters also banged on trash
[00:21:59] cans, slammed snow shovels, blew
[00:22:01] whistles, stomped, yelled, shown strobe
[00:22:03] lights on the hotel's facade in an
[00:22:04] attempt to disturb the federal officers
[00:22:06] who they believed were sleeping inside.
[00:22:09] This sort of activity is being
[00:22:10] facilitated by politicians of the left.
[00:22:13] It is that clear and that is the reason
[00:22:16] this is happening in Minneapolis and
[00:22:17] nowhere else. Why is this not happening
[00:22:18] again in New Orleans? Why is this not
[00:22:21] happening in Dallas, Texas? Why isn't
[00:22:24] this happening in red areas? The answer
[00:22:27] is very obvious. Tim Walls, who's been
[00:22:29] absolutely abhorrent throughout this
[00:22:31] entire debacle, a terrible governor, a
[00:22:34] disgrace to the country. This person was
[00:22:35] nominated for vice president of the
[00:22:36] United States by the Democratic Party.
[00:22:39] Walls put out a series of tweets. quote,
[00:22:40] "I just spoke with the White House after
[00:22:42] another horrific shooting by federal
[00:22:44] agents this morning. Minnesota has had
[00:22:45] it. This is sickening. The president
[00:22:47] must end this operation. Pull the
[00:22:49] thousands of violent untrained officers
[00:22:51] out of Minnesota now." So, I guess the
[00:22:53] basic idea here is that you won't help
[00:22:56] by actively facilitating the deportation
[00:22:58] of criminal illegal immigrants and thus
[00:23:01] you're going to facilitate the
[00:23:02] obstruction of law enforcement and then
[00:23:04] when things go bad, you're going to tell
[00:23:05] federal law enforcement to pull out. So
[00:23:08] it's state and local nullification is
[00:23:09] what we are talking about right now. And
[00:23:11] then he says they think they can provoke
[00:23:13] us into abandoning our values. They are
[00:23:15] wrong. We will keep the peace. We will
[00:23:16] secure justice for our neighbors and we
[00:23:18] will see this occupation end. How have
[00:23:19] you been doing keeping the peace? How's
[00:23:21] that going for you Tim Walls? It seems
[00:23:23] like not so peaceful over there. It
[00:23:25] seems like every time you say the
[00:23:27] protesters are doing something wonderful
[00:23:28] in the aftermath of somebody being shot
[00:23:30] or in the aftermath of violent
[00:23:33] demonstrations, it gets worse. I don't
[00:23:36] think Tim Walls is interested in keeping
[00:23:37] things peaceful in Minnesota. I don't I
[00:23:40] see very little evidence that he is. He
[00:23:42] can say it over and over, but I see very
[00:23:43] little evidence that this is his goal.
[00:23:46] He says Minnesota believes in law and
[00:23:47] order. We believe in peace and we
[00:23:49] believe that Trump needs to pull his
[00:23:50] 3,000 untrained agents out of Minnesota
[00:23:52] before they kill another American in the
[00:23:53] street. Not sure what he means by
[00:23:55] untrained.
[00:23:56] These agents go through training, but
[00:23:59] again, the goal is to proclaim this a
[00:24:00] Gestapo-like occupation.
[00:24:03] And again, Walls is building an entire
[00:24:05] permission structure for violence
[00:24:06] against officers. That's what he's doing
[00:24:08] here. He was over the weekend saying we
[00:24:10] should not call these people law
[00:24:11] enforcement.
[00:24:13] Do I have any confidence Donald Trump
[00:24:14] will do the right thing? No, I don't
[00:24:16] have a lot of confidence Donald Trump
[00:24:17] will do the right thing. I do have a lot
[00:24:19] of confidence that the majority of the
[00:24:21] American people will do the right thing.
[00:24:23] And I think there cannot be very many
[00:24:25] people across this country looking right
[00:24:27] now after all the reporting that's been
[00:24:29] done after everything that's been said
[00:24:31] under the pretense that they are here
[00:24:33] about immigration reform and quit
[00:24:35] referring to these people as law
[00:24:36] enforcement. They are not law
[00:24:37] enforcement. We have law enforcement who
[00:24:40] do an incredible job. And to listen to
[00:24:42] Greg Bevino denigrate the work of our
[00:24:45] people who are out there cleaning up
[00:24:46] their mess. No, I don't have a lot of
[00:24:48] confidence that he himself will do it.
[00:24:50] But here's what I do have confidence in.
[00:24:53] There's a whole lot of Republicans, for
[00:24:54] whatever reason, cannot find their
[00:24:56] spine, but they might find the ability
[00:24:58] to know that they're not going to win
[00:25:00] another election as long as they live
[00:25:02] unless they stand up for what's right
[00:25:03] and stand up for the rule of law and
[00:25:05] stand up for human decency. And that's
[00:25:07] the moment,
[00:25:07] >> okay? They're they're literally not
[00:25:08] standing up for the rule of law. Tim
[00:25:10] Walls & Company, he is literally saying,
[00:25:12] "Get your agents out of here while they
[00:25:13] enforce federal law." And when he says
[00:25:14] things like they're not law enforcement,
[00:25:16] what do you think he is saying to
[00:25:17] protesters? What do you think he's
[00:25:19] saying? When he says they're not law
[00:25:21] enforcement, he's saying, "Okay, well,
[00:25:23] if they're not, then what are they? Then
[00:25:24] I guess they're terrorists,
[00:25:26] then I guess that they are lawb
[00:25:28] breakakers because they're wandering
[00:25:30] around committing crimes against other
[00:25:31] American citizens." What is he saying?
[00:25:33] He's granting a permission structure for
[00:25:35] all of this. Then Walls went on to say
[00:25:38] that motans are actually just all
[00:25:40] they're doing is creating a log of
[00:25:41] evidence for prosecution of ICE agents.
[00:25:43] What's the problem with them creating a
[00:25:44] log of evidence? Is that really what you
[00:25:46] think they're doing? Creating a log of
[00:25:47] evidence is that that's really all
[00:25:48] they're doing. They're not obstructing
[00:25:50] law enforcement.
[00:25:51] >> Motans are witnessing and we're creating
[00:25:53] a log of evidence for the future
[00:25:56] prosecution of ICE agents and officials
[00:25:58] responsible for this. They're helping
[00:26:01] their neighbors. They're walking their
[00:26:02] kids to school. They're feeding
[00:26:04] families.
[00:26:05] >> Okay. Um I'm I'm confused. They're not
[00:26:07] doing Alex Patty was not walking kids to
[00:26:09] school or feeding families. He was in
[00:26:12] the streets. He was blocking traffic
[00:26:14] apparently. You can see in the tape he's
[00:26:16] out there. He's getting in the way of
[00:26:18] federal law enforcement. I mean, he was
[00:26:20] resisting arrest. Like, those are things
[00:26:22] that are happening. This is why I say
[00:26:24] that very often these things become a
[00:26:25] roar shock test. And the sides are
[00:26:28] seeing completely different stories and
[00:26:29] none of them seem to be related to the
[00:26:31] actual tape that we saw in which life is
[00:26:34] messy and life is complicated. But it
[00:26:35] appears that Alex Freddy was obstructing
[00:26:38] federal law enforcement in performance
[00:26:39] of an operation and then resisting
[00:26:41] arrest and had a gun on him. And then it
[00:26:43] appears from the tape that he was
[00:26:45] disarmed and someone mistakenly thought
[00:26:47] he was still armed and they heard a shot
[00:26:48] go off or something like that and then
[00:26:50] they shot him. That appears to be the
[00:26:52] most objective way of describing the
[00:26:53] situation. But according to Tim Walls,
[00:26:55] it's just a pure unprecedented pre
[00:26:57] premeditated murder. Walls went on, by
[00:27:00] the way, to compare illegal immigrant
[00:27:02] children in Minnesota to Anne Frank. Uh,
[00:27:05] no. I'm sorry
[00:27:07] that no wrong.
[00:27:10] Annef Frank was not attempting to
[00:27:12] immigrate to the country from which she
[00:27:13] was deported. Anne Frank was a citizen
[00:27:16] of the country in which she lived and
[00:27:18] then she was sent to Avitz where she
[00:27:20] died of typhus. That is not the same
[00:27:22] thing. And guess what? American law
[00:27:26] enforcement agents, ICE officers, border
[00:27:28] patrol agents are not Nazis. They are
[00:27:30] not the Gestapo.
[00:27:32] This is a purposefully driven chaos
[00:27:34] operation pushed by Democrats for
[00:27:36] political purposes. We have got children
[00:27:39] in Minnesota
[00:27:41] hiding in their houses, afraid to go
[00:27:43] outside.
[00:27:45] Many of us grew up reading that story of
[00:27:47] Anne Frank.
[00:27:49] Somebody's going to write that
[00:27:50] children's story about Minnesota.
[00:27:53] And there's one person who can end this
[00:27:56] now. Either he's stupid or he's venal or
[00:27:59] both. Probably both. And again, he's
[00:28:02] been setting the groundwork for this for
[00:28:04] weeks and months.
[00:28:06] On January 7th, Wall said, "It is your
[00:28:08] patriotic duty to resist." Here he was.
[00:28:12] >> I want motans to hear this from me. I
[00:28:15] the desire to get out and protest and
[00:28:17] and to speak up to this administration
[00:28:19] of how wrong this is. That that is a
[00:28:21] patriotic duty at this point in time.
[00:28:24] >> It is it is a patriotic duty. Last week
[00:28:26] he suggested it was time to quote
[00:28:28] unquote cause good trouble and that well
[00:28:31] then trouble is going to ensue. I mean
[00:28:33] that is a thing that is likely going to
[00:28:34] happen. These are the moments for people
[00:28:37] to stand up. These are the moments that
[00:28:39] are not the easy ones, but these are the
[00:28:42] moments where character comes out.
[00:28:44] >> I am receiving notes from around the
[00:28:47] world.
[00:28:49] [cheering]
[00:28:51] >> People identifying and there's a lot of
[00:28:53] people saying, "Okay, I was sleeping on
[00:28:55] Minnesota." And I think what you've done
[00:28:57] and what our neighbors are going through
[00:28:59] to see this and I often times told this
[00:29:01] story. I served on the China Commission
[00:29:03] in Congress. Ironically enough, as
[00:29:05] co-chair with Marco Rubio, we used to
[00:29:08] bring in Chinese political prisoners.
[00:29:10] And we would ask them, "When we speak up
[00:29:13] and call out your government, is it
[00:29:15] bad?" And they said,
[00:29:16] >> "Well, in the short run, it's bad
[00:29:18] because they torture us. But if you
[00:29:21] don't speak up, they will torture us and
[00:29:23] forget about us."
[00:29:24] >> And the idea is right now is we have to
[00:29:27] be speaking up. We have to call it.
[00:29:31] >> They are. You are doing everything and
[00:29:33] our neighbors are doing everything and I
[00:29:35] can't stress enough on this. We're
[00:29:37] winning it because we're doing it with
[00:29:38] Minnesota grit, Minnesota,
[00:29:41] >> Minnesota decency.
[00:29:43] >> Oftentimes talk about this and I know
[00:29:45] people are discussing this a lot. I
[00:29:47] spent a lot of time with John Lewis on
[00:29:48] nonviolent resistance.
[00:29:50] >> The resistance matters. We're not
[00:29:53] telling people to be silent, but we're
[00:29:55] not telling people to go out and cause
[00:29:57] problems. We're going to cause good
[00:29:58] trouble.
[00:29:59] >> Yeah.
[00:30:00] >> Okay. So when he talks about nonviolent
[00:30:02] resistance, what is what does it mean
[00:30:03] when when people violently resist
[00:30:04] arrest, for example, is is that is that
[00:30:07] nonviolent resistance? Cuz that's what
[00:30:08] we've been seeing. Is it nonviolent
[00:30:10] resistance when you block traffic like
[00:30:11] Renee Good did and then hit an officer
[00:30:13] with your car? Is that is that is that
[00:30:15] nonviolent resistance? How how what does
[00:30:17] he mean by this? And again, the lines
[00:30:19] are pretty blurry here and they're being
[00:30:20] deliberately blurred. Meanwhile, Jacob
[00:30:22] Fry, who is the awful mayor of
[00:30:24] Minneapolis, he put out a statement,
[00:30:26] quote, "After today's shooting,
[00:30:27] Minneapolis is filing a declaration to
[00:30:29] push for an immediate ruling on our
[00:30:31] temporary restraining order. We need
[00:30:32] swift action to protect our city. I have
[00:30:34] formally requested National Guard
[00:30:35] assistance to support our 600
[00:30:37] Minneapolis police officers. I've been
[00:30:39] clear for weeks. This situation is
[00:30:40] unsustainable. Our community is tired.
[00:30:42] Our officers are tired. Our businesses
[00:30:44] are tired. Our top priority is safety,
[00:30:46] and this will help." So, I'm confused.
[00:30:48] Is he trying to call in the National
[00:30:49] Guard to stop ICE from doing its job or
[00:30:51] to stop people from rioting? Which is
[00:30:53] it? Because that makes an awful big
[00:30:54] difference. If it is the former that
[00:30:56] he's trying to stop ICE from doing its
[00:30:58] job by calling in the National Guard,
[00:30:59] then you have like an actual
[00:31:00] insurrection on your hands. You can't
[00:31:01] have state law enforcement opposed to
[00:31:04] federal law enforcement. That does not
[00:31:06] have a good history in this country
[00:31:09] or any other so far as I'm aware.
[00:31:12] Meanwhile, Fry said he did a presser an
[00:31:15] overall presser in which he said, "How
[00:31:16] many more Americans need to die?" You
[00:31:17] know what would stop Americans from
[00:31:18] dying? Tell people to go home while ICE
[00:31:20] does its job. That would that would get
[00:31:22] people to stop dying. It would tell
[00:31:23] people to not obstruct ICE officers.
[00:31:26] >> I just saw a video of more than six
[00:31:31] masked agents pummeling one of our
[00:31:36] constituents and shooting him to death.
[00:31:40] How many more residents, how many more
[00:31:43] Americans need to die or get badly hurt
[00:31:47] for this operation to end?
[00:31:49] How many more lives need to be lost
[00:31:53] before this administration realizes that
[00:31:56] a political and partisan narrative is
[00:31:59] not as important as American values?
[00:32:04] How many times must local and national
[00:32:07] leaders must plead with you, Donald
[00:32:09] Trump, to end this operation and
[00:32:12] recognize that this is not creating
[00:32:14] safety in our city.
[00:32:17] Well, what's not creating safety is
[00:32:18] again people obstructing federal law
[00:32:20] enforcement. You know what creates
[00:32:22] safety? Deporting criminal illegal
[00:32:24] immigrants. That creates safety. Unless
[00:32:26] you decide you're going to get in the
[00:32:27] way of law enforcement, in which case
[00:32:28] safety does not ensue. This is a chaos
[00:32:30] operation. It's a chaos operation and
[00:32:32] it's being promoted by everybody up to
[00:32:34] and including Barack Obama, the former
[00:32:35] president of the United States who thus
[00:32:37] far I've seen no comments on his on his
[00:32:40] Twitter feed with regard to the murder
[00:32:41] apparently of tens of thousands of
[00:32:43] people in Iran. But he definitely has
[00:32:45] some statements about our border patrol
[00:32:46] and ICE agents. Quote, "The killing of
[00:32:48] Alex Petty is a heartbreaking tragedy.
[00:32:50] It should also be a wake-up call to
[00:32:51] every American, regardless of party,
[00:32:53] that many of our core values as a nation
[00:32:55] are increasingly under assault. For
[00:32:57] weeks now, people across the country
[00:32:58] have been rightly outraged by the
[00:33:00] spectacle of masked ICE recruits and
[00:33:02] other federal agents acting with
[00:33:03] impunity and engaging in tactics that
[00:33:05] seem designed to intimidate, harass,
[00:33:06] provoke, and endanger the residents of a
[00:33:08] major American city. These unprecedented
[00:33:10] tactics have now resulted in the fatal
[00:33:11] shooting of two US citizens. Again, that
[00:33:13] is not true. That is a lie. The idea
[00:33:15] that ICE pursuing its law enforcement
[00:33:19] duties is the thing that has resulted in
[00:33:21] the fatal shootings of two US citizens
[00:33:23] is wrong. People walking down the
[00:33:25] streets not bothering ICE are not
[00:33:26] getting shot. People obstructing ICE
[00:33:28] operations and then getting into
[00:33:30] disputed altercations with ICE officers
[00:33:32] sometimes well armed.
[00:33:35] That that is the thing that is going to
[00:33:36] end with bad things happening. Clearly
[00:33:40] obviously the local officials have had
[00:33:43] their perspective on this as well and
[00:33:45] they are mirroring the Democratic line.
[00:33:47] The Minneapolis police chief was out
[00:33:49] there. His name is Brian O'Hara,
[00:33:50] denouncing the ICE operations and what
[00:33:53] happened with Alex Prey.
[00:33:54] >> Well, I've seen the videos just as
[00:33:56] thousands of people around the country
[00:33:58] have and the videos speak for
[00:33:59] themselves. I think it's deeply
[00:34:02] concerning the things that are being
[00:34:04] said. Um, this is an individual that was
[00:34:07] a city resident. Um it appears that he
[00:34:10] was present uh exercising his first
[00:34:13] amendment rights to record law
[00:34:14] enforcement activity and also exercising
[00:34:17] his second amendment rights to lawfully
[00:34:20] uh be armed in a public space in the
[00:34:22] city. Um, so I think very obviously
[00:34:26] there are serious questions that are
[00:34:28] being raised and I think the greater
[00:34:30] issue is even if there is an
[00:34:32] investigation that ultimately proves
[00:34:35] that at the time of the shooting it was
[00:34:37] legally justified. I I don't think that
[00:34:39] even matters at this point because there
[00:34:41] just there is so much outrage and
[00:34:43] concern around what is happening in the
[00:34:45] city.
[00:34:46] >> Okay, that last statement is insane.
[00:34:47] That last statement is totally insane
[00:34:48] that if there's a full investigation and
[00:34:50] it finds that the shooting was
[00:34:51] justified, that doesn't matter. That's
[00:34:52] the only thing that should matter,
[00:34:54] shouldn't it not? I mean, like, as a as
[00:34:56] a country where law is supposed to
[00:34:59] prevail, the impartial administration of
[00:35:01] justice is supposed to prevail,
[00:35:02] shouldn't the guilt or innocence of the
[00:35:04] officers at issue be the key issue? But
[00:35:06] this is always the case with people who
[00:35:08] are promoting the left-wing narrative.
[00:35:10] The narrative matters more than the
[00:35:11] fact. It doesn't matter what actually
[00:35:13] happened. It only matters what you think
[00:35:14] happened and what people feel about what
[00:35:16] happened. really truly ugly stuff,
[00:35:18] particularly from a member of law
[00:35:20] enforcement, Senator Amy Clavar of
[00:35:22] Minnesota. She's also trying to stump on
[00:35:24] the spaces. She of course wants to run
[00:35:26] for governor of Minnesota in the wake of
[00:35:27] Tim Walls announcing he will not run for
[00:35:28] a third term. So here she was saying,
[00:35:30] "Silence is complicity." I am strongly
[00:35:33] opposed uh to more funding for ICE. I
[00:35:36] was strongly opposed when they tripled
[00:35:37] their budget this summer. $75 billion
[00:35:41] more. That money could go to local law
[00:35:43] enforcement and instead they loosened
[00:35:46] all the training requirements down from
[00:35:48] months to 47 days. They are violating uh
[00:35:52] the fourth amendment that they are
[00:35:54] ramming in people's doors without a
[00:35:56] judicial warrant. Uh they are refusing
[00:35:59] to have mandatory body cameras. Um they
[00:36:02] are have clearly a leadership uh that
[00:36:05] should be removed. Um, you can just go
[00:36:08] down the list of all the problems with
[00:36:10] this right now. And I really do
[00:36:12] appreciate uh that Senator Cassidy was
[00:36:14] brave enough uh to stand up and say
[00:36:16] something about it when no one else
[00:36:18] will. And in this point, silence is
[00:36:21] complicity.
[00:36:23] >> Silence is complicit in what? What kind
[00:36:25] of silence are we talking about? What if
[00:36:27] we agree this is a tragic situation and
[00:36:28] that there should be a full
[00:36:29] investigation but also believe that
[00:36:32] Democrats are operating
[00:36:34] under the guise of a chaosdriven
[00:36:37] mentality. Gavin Newsome who wants to
[00:36:39] run for president is now suggesting that
[00:36:41] this is a police state. He put this up
[00:36:44] his press office a press office he has
[00:36:46] denounced before when I interviewed him
[00:36:49] or is on his show. So technically he was
[00:36:51] interviewing me. He put out a statement
[00:36:53] via his press office. You're seeing
[00:36:54] what's happening on American streets.
[00:36:55] This is a police state. Speak up. Show
[00:36:58] up. Use your rights peacefully and
[00:37:00] promoting this sort of. It is not a
[00:37:02] police state. People are not being
[00:37:04] simply randomly arrested on the streets
[00:37:06] for doing nothing. That is not what's
[00:37:08] happening. Mikey Cheryl, the new
[00:37:10] governor of New Jersey, suggested that
[00:37:13] ICE is a Stazzy force. That would be a
[00:37:15] reference to the secret police in East
[00:37:17] Germany.
[00:37:18] >> This isn't about sanctuary, not
[00:37:20] sanctuary cities. This goes far beyond
[00:37:21] that. This is about a a basically stazzi
[00:37:25] type force of secret police that wear
[00:37:27] masks, that are unidentifiable, that are
[00:37:30] unaccountable, that have leadership in
[00:37:33] the Trump administration blatantly lying
[00:37:36] about what's going on when the American
[00:37:37] people can see the videos about exactly
[00:37:40] what's happening. There is no police
[00:37:43] officer in the state of New Jersey that
[00:37:46] would a act like that because we have
[00:37:48] training that far surpasses any type of
[00:37:51] misconduct like that or b should
[00:37:54] anything unoured happen, the other
[00:37:57] agents with that police officer would
[00:37:59] stop that immediately and that person
[00:38:01] would be prosecuted to the full extent
[00:38:03] of the law, which is exactly what needs
[00:38:05] to happen with these ICE agents in
[00:38:08] Minneapolis.
[00:38:10] like they're the Stazzi now. And so
[00:38:12] Democrats on the back of this are
[00:38:14] threatening another government shutdown.
[00:38:16] According to the New York Times,
[00:38:17] bipartisan legislation to fund a broad
[00:38:19] swath of the government and avert a
[00:38:20] shutdown at the end of the week,
[00:38:22] appeared to be in grave danger on
[00:38:23] Saturday as key Senate Democrats vowed
[00:38:25] to oppose it after federal agents shot
[00:38:27] and killed a Minneapolis resident. The
[00:38:29] rapidly escalating opposition to the
[00:38:31] measure, which includes $64.4 $4 billion
[00:38:33] for the Department of Homeland Security,
[00:38:35] including $10 billion for ICE amplified
[00:38:37] the likelihood of a partial government
[00:38:38] shutdown at the end of the month. The
[00:38:40] legislation requires the support of
[00:38:41] Democrats to muster the 60 votes needed
[00:38:43] to avoid the filibuster and advance in
[00:38:45] the Senate. So Schumer wants the DHS
[00:38:48] funding bill to be cut out of the
[00:38:50] broader appropriations bill in an
[00:38:53] attempt to then have a debate over ICE
[00:38:55] and yell at the Trump administration
[00:38:56] over ICE operations. So they are
[00:38:58] apparently willing to hold up the
[00:39:00] funding of the government again in order
[00:39:03] to go after DHS. Not a surprise. Senator
[00:39:06] Angus King, an independent who caucuses
[00:39:09] with the Democrats from Maine. He is
[00:39:11] calling for a government shutdown
[00:39:12] essentially.
[00:39:14] Margaret, I I hate shutdowns. I'm one of
[00:39:16] the people that helped negotiate the the
[00:39:18] solution to the last the end of the last
[00:39:19] shutdown, but I can't vote for a bill
[00:39:21] that includes ACE funding under these
[00:39:23] circumstances. what they're doing in my
[00:39:25] state, what we saw yesterday in in in
[00:39:28] Minneapolis. Uh I there's an easy way
[00:39:31] out. By the way, uh Leader Thun could
[00:39:34] separate, which is what they did in the
[00:39:36] House, separate the five other
[00:39:38] appropriation bills, put them on the
[00:39:40] floor, they would pass, I think
[00:39:41] overwhelmingly, then let's take up DHS.
[00:39:44] And by the way, if those bills pass, 96%
[00:39:47] of the federal government is funded.
[00:39:49] >> Take up DHS by itself. Let's have an
[00:39:51] honest negotiation. put some guard rails
[00:39:54] on what's going on, some accountability,
[00:39:56] and that would solve this problem. We
[00:39:58] don't have to have a shutdown.
[00:39:59] >> Okay, we don't have to have a shutdown,
[00:40:01] but he wants a shutdown. So, glad to see
[00:40:04] the Democrats are again pushing forward
[00:40:06] with this narrative. One of the things
[00:40:07] that we are seeing from the left is an
[00:40:09] attempt to import the sort of left-wing
[00:40:12] bizarre ideological kinship with terror
[00:40:15] groups abroad to what's happening in
[00:40:16] places like Minneapolis. Apparently,
[00:40:18] resistance to law enforcement, to
[00:40:20] legitimate law enforcement is now to be
[00:40:22] considered virtue. And if you can create
[00:40:23] enough quoteunquote atrocity stories,
[00:40:25] then you can undermine the enforcement
[00:40:27] of the law. That seems to be the model
[00:40:30] of people like the disreputable Hassan
[00:40:32] who literally put out a tweet
[00:40:34] claiming, quote, "The siege on
[00:40:36] Minneapolis is where you really see the
[00:40:38] West Bank occupation tactics on US soil,
[00:40:40] constant militarized ICE presence on the
[00:40:42] streets, illegal detentions, killing
[00:40:43] people, trying to defend their
[00:40:44] neighbors, labeling them terrorists,
[00:40:45] fascism is colonialism turned inward.
[00:40:48] It's here." Again, it is this ideology
[00:40:50] that has now been translated into the
[00:40:52] anti-ICE operations that are being
[00:40:53] performed by groups like this. Then you
[00:40:55] have morons like Thomas Freriedman who
[00:40:57] spends all day at the New York Times. He
[00:40:59] he just goes to various country and
[00:41:01] listens to taxi drivers and then thinks
[00:41:03] he has some sort of insight on the
[00:41:04] world. He wrote a column today in which
[00:41:07] he claimed that ICE officers and kamas
[00:41:10] militia men are the same because quote,
[00:41:12] "If you placed a photo of an ICE officer
[00:41:14] next to a kamas militia man in a news
[00:41:16] quiz, I would defy you to tell them
[00:41:17] apart."
[00:41:20] Um, so basically if people wear masks,
[00:41:24] they must all be the same. That that
[00:41:27] that's the idea from from genius Thomas
[00:41:28] Friedman. Genius level stuff. Okay.
[00:41:30] Meanwhile, the Trump administration is
[00:41:32] responding. Vice President JD Vance
[00:41:35] tweeted out something that is clearly
[00:41:36] true. He said, "This level of engineered
[00:41:38] chaos is unique to Minneapolis. It is
[00:41:40] the direct consequence of far-left
[00:41:41] agitators working with local
[00:41:42] authorities. Obviously, that's right."
[00:41:45] The president put out a statement as
[00:41:46] well. Quote, "This is the gunman's gun,
[00:41:48] loaded with two additional full
[00:41:50] magazines and ready to go. What is that
[00:41:51] all about? Where are the local police?
[00:41:53] Why weren't they allowed to protect ICE
[00:41:54] officers? The mayor and the governor
[00:41:56] called them off. It is stated that many
[00:41:57] of these police were not allowed to do
[00:41:58] their job. That ICE had to protect
[00:42:00] themselves. Not an easy thing to do. Why
[00:42:02] does Ilhan Omar have $34 million in her
[00:42:04] account? And where are the tens of
[00:42:05] billions of dollars that have been
[00:42:06] stolen from the once great state of
[00:42:08] Minnesota? We are there because of
[00:42:09] massive monetary fraud with billions of
[00:42:11] dollars missing and illegal criminals
[00:42:13] that were allowed to infiltrate the
[00:42:14] state through the Democrats open border
[00:42:15] policy. We want the money back and we
[00:42:17] want it back now. Those fraudsters who
[00:42:19] stole the money are going to jail where
[00:42:20] they belong. This is no different from a
[00:42:22] really big bank robbery. Much of what
[00:42:23] you're witnessing is a cover up for this
[00:42:25] theft and fraud. The mayor and governor
[00:42:26] are inciting insurrection with their
[00:42:28] pompous, dangerous, and arrogant
[00:42:29] rhetoric. Instead, these sanctimonious
[00:42:31] political fools should be looking for
[00:42:33] the billions of dollars that have been
[00:42:34] stolen from the people of Minnesota and
[00:42:36] the United States of America. Let our
[00:42:37] ICE patriots do their job. 12,000
[00:42:40] illegal alien criminals, many of them
[00:42:42] violent, have been arrested and taken
[00:42:43] out of Minnesota. if they were still
[00:42:44] there, you would see something far worse
[00:42:46] than you are witnessing today because
[00:42:48] that is President Trump's response to
[00:42:50] all of this. And then President Trump
[00:42:51] suggested that he would be sending Tom
[00:42:53] Hman as well, the head of his his border
[00:42:56] ZAR. He said, quote, I'm sending Tom
[00:42:58] Hman to Minnesota tonight. He has not
[00:43:00] been involved in that area, but knows
[00:43:01] and likes many of the people there. Tom
[00:43:02] is tough but fair and will report
[00:43:04] directly to me. Separately, a major
[00:43:06] investigation is going on with respect
[00:43:07] to the massive $20 billion plus welfare
[00:43:09] fraud that has taken place in Minnesota.
[00:43:12] Hey, that is a good move. Senator Tom
[00:43:13] Hman H. Home. Home. Home. Home. Home.
[00:43:14] Home. Home. Home. Home. Homeman is a
[00:43:15] responsible actor. And this brings us to
[00:43:17] other members of the Trump
[00:43:18] administration who make statements about
[00:43:21] disputed incidents like the death of
[00:43:23] Alex Prey that are not tied to the
[00:43:27] videos that we can all see or what
[00:43:28] appear to be the facts on the ground. We
[00:43:29] saw this with Renee Good when Christine,
[00:43:31] the Department of Homeland Security
[00:43:33] Secretary, suggested that she was
[00:43:34] attempting to mow down officers with her
[00:43:36] car. At the very least, that particular
[00:43:40] narrative did not seem to be supported
[00:43:42] by the video. In this particular case,
[00:43:45] Christine Gnome, as this was all
[00:43:47] unfolding, came out and made a statement
[00:43:49] in which she suggested that Alex Petty
[00:43:51] was a domestic terrorist who wanted to
[00:43:52] inflict maximum damage. This looks like
[00:43:55] a situation where an individual arrived
[00:43:57] at the scene to inflict maximum damage
[00:44:00] on individuals and to kill law
[00:44:01] enforcement.
[00:44:03] About hundreds of protesters then showed
[00:44:06] up at the scene. They began to obstruct
[00:44:08] and to assault law enforcement officers.
[00:44:11] We saw objects being thrown at them,
[00:44:13] including ICE and other objects, and a
[00:44:16] rampant assault began, and even an HSI
[00:44:19] officer agents finger was bitten off.
[00:44:23] Crowd control measures were deployed to
[00:44:25] bring safety to the public and to law
[00:44:27] enforcement at the scene. And once
[00:44:29] again, I want to remind everybody that
[00:44:31] this situation and this tragedy did not
[00:44:33] have to happen. Our law enforcement are
[00:44:36] doing everything that they can to
[00:44:37] protect the public. We're praying for
[00:44:39] this deceased loved ones family and
[00:44:41] friends, but we also recognize that the
[00:44:44] Minnesota governor and the Minneapolis
[00:44:46] mayor need to take a long hard look in
[00:44:48] the mirror. Hey, this is um this is not
[00:44:51] connected to the video that you saw. I'm
[00:44:54] sorry it isn't. The idea that Christine
[00:44:56] Nome said this guy's a domestic
[00:44:57] terrorist who wanted to inflict maximum
[00:44:59] damage that at the very least he wanted
[00:45:00] to kill law enforcement.
[00:45:02] Let's just say that that is a matter
[00:45:05] under dispute.
[00:45:06] He's standing there with a cell phone.
[00:45:08] He is filming people when this whole
[00:45:09] thing begins. If he wanted to kill law
[00:45:11] enforcement, presumably his gun would
[00:45:12] have been drawn at the very beginning.
[00:45:14] You're allowed to protest while holding
[00:45:15] a gun. We'll get to that in a moment.
[00:45:18] Now, the best case for Christine Noom is
[00:45:20] that it is possible that he reached for
[00:45:22] what at that point was an empty holster.
[00:45:23] It is unclear from the tape whether that
[00:45:25] is the case or not or whether that
[00:45:27] triggered the shooting. We don't know
[00:45:28] yet.
[00:45:30] But she was grilled on this
[00:45:32] characterization of events by Peter
[00:45:34] Ducey
[00:45:36] because from the tape it appears that
[00:45:38] Prey had already been disarmed. You said
[00:45:41] last night it looks like a situation
[00:45:42] where an individual arrived at the scene
[00:45:44] to inflict maximum damage on individuals
[00:45:46] and to kill law enforcement. Did he say,
[00:45:50] "I'm going to kill you," or did he leave
[00:45:52] a note? How do you know that was his
[00:45:53] intent? You know, part of this
[00:45:55] investigation will be hearing from those
[00:45:56] agents and officers and people on the
[00:45:58] ground, but we do know that he came to
[00:46:00] that scene and impeded a law enforcement
[00:46:03] operation, which is against federal law.
[00:46:05] It's a felony. Uh when he did that,
[00:46:07] interacting with those agents when they
[00:46:09] tried to um get him to disengage, he
[00:46:13] became aggressive and resisted them
[00:46:15] throughout that process. These officers
[00:46:18] used their training, uh, followed their
[00:46:20] protocols and were in fear of their
[00:46:22] lives and the people around them. Uh,
[00:46:24] and that's how this tragedy unfolded and
[00:46:27] we hope we never see it again.
[00:46:28] >> It appears that Alex Prey was disarmed.
[00:46:33] If he was disarmed, is it the protocol
[00:46:35] to use deadly force?
[00:46:37] >> And that's all part of this
[00:46:38] investigation. Every video will be
[00:46:40] analyzed. Everything will be looked at.
[00:46:42] and and that's part of the answers that
[00:46:44] I can't speak to every single thing that
[00:46:46] those officers thought, but this
[00:46:47] happened in seconds. Uh they clearly
[00:46:50] feared for their lives and took action
[00:46:52] to defend themselves and the people
[00:46:54] around them.
[00:46:54] >> Okay, so this is the part you should
[00:46:56] have been saying in the first place. Why
[00:46:57] is the first iteration is the he's a
[00:46:59] domestic terrorist who is trying to
[00:47:01] murder everybody and then the second
[00:47:02] iteration is the reasonable one. The
[00:47:04] first iteration should be the reasonable
[00:47:05] one. Why does that matter? Because if
[00:47:07] you are going to appear to if you want
[00:47:09] this operation to be successful if you
[00:47:11] want ICE to have the trust of the
[00:47:12] American people then when things happen
[00:47:14] you have to say a full investigation
[00:47:16] will take place. These matters obviously
[00:47:19] are incredibly fraught. Resisting
[00:47:21] arrest, obstructing federal
[00:47:23] investigations and federal law
[00:47:24] enforcement is a crime.
[00:47:27] Do not do this to police officers. Do
[00:47:29] not do this to federal law enforcement.
[00:47:31] Don't do it. They have to make snap
[00:47:32] judgments in a heartbeat. Bad things
[00:47:34] could happen. a full investigation is
[00:47:36] taking like that should be the original
[00:47:37] comment, not he's a domestic terrorist
[00:47:40] and he is obviously attempting to murder
[00:47:41] as many people as possible. When you say
[00:47:43] that sort of stuff, it means that people
[00:47:44] number one aren't going to trust your
[00:47:45] investigation and number two they are
[00:47:47] not going to trust you anymore because
[00:47:49] you have said something that does not
[00:47:50] appear to be supported by the tape.
[00:47:54] Greg Bavino is one of the leaders of
[00:47:57] Border Patrol. Again, it was a border
[00:47:59] patrol agent who apparently was was
[00:48:01] involved in the shooting. And um and
[00:48:04] here he was explaining the incident.
[00:48:06] >> During this operation, an individual
[00:48:09] approached US Border Patrol agents with
[00:48:12] a 9mm semi-automatic handgun.
[00:48:15] [clears throat]
[00:48:16] [snorts] The agents attempted to disarm
[00:48:18] the individual, but he violently
[00:48:20] resisted.
[00:48:23] Fearing for his life and the lives and
[00:48:25] safety of fellow officers, a Bord Patrol
[00:48:28] agent fired defensive shots,
[00:48:31] medics on the scene immediately
[00:48:34] delivered medical aid to the subject,
[00:48:36] but the subject was pronounced dead at
[00:48:39] the scene. The suspect also had two
[00:48:43] loaded magazines and no accessible ID.
[00:48:47] This looks like a situation where an
[00:48:50] individual wanted to do maximum damage
[00:48:53] and massacre law enforcement.
[00:48:55] Okay, so again, that last sentence is
[00:48:57] totally unnecessary. Why? What was this
[00:49:00] a situation where he wanted to inflict
[00:49:01] maximum damage and massacre law
[00:49:03] enforcement? If you look at that tape,
[00:49:05] it's very difficult for your eyes to
[00:49:07] tell you that. And so obviously this
[00:49:09] creates a gap between reality and the
[00:49:11] narrative that you are now being told.
[00:49:13] And that's bad. It undermines your
[00:49:14] credibility. It undermines the
[00:49:16] credibility of law enforcement. Don't do
[00:49:17] this thing. Truly, if you want ICE to
[00:49:20] succeed, if you want Border Patrol to be
[00:49:21] able to perform its job, don't do this
[00:49:23] thing. Dana Bash at CNN went after Bo
[00:49:26] for all of this.
[00:49:27] >> Back to the Second Amendment. What
[00:49:28] you're saying about the Second Amendment
[00:49:30] is peacefully [music] protesting uh with
[00:49:33] with firearms. Absolutely. I've done
[00:49:35] that myself and uh fully support that.
[00:49:38] But not when you perpetrate violence,
[00:49:40] obstruct, delay, or obfuscate border
[00:49:43] patrol in the performance of their
[00:49:46] duties in an
[00:49:47] >> There's no evidence that he was
[00:49:49] perpetrating violence. And there's no
[00:49:51] evidence, unless you have it, and we'd
[00:49:53] love to see it if there is, that he was
[00:49:55] intending to massacre law enforcement
[00:49:57] other than the fact that he was there
[00:49:59] and he had a gun lawfully.
[00:50:02] >> He meant to be there beforehand. Again,
[00:50:04] again, Dana, he meant he came there
[00:50:06] beforehand. How do you How do you know
[00:50:07] that? How do you know that? Because he
[00:50:09] was there.
[00:50:10] >> But all he was doing was filming and
[00:50:12] documenting it, which is legal.
[00:50:14] >> He was carrying a gun, which in
[00:50:15] Minneapolis,
[00:50:16] >> I didn't say it wasn't.
[00:50:17] >> And I didn't say it wasn't legal. So
[00:50:19] then what did he do that was illegal?
[00:50:21] >> Assault federal law enforcement when he
[00:50:23] does that. That's an active law
[00:50:25] enforcement crime.
[00:50:27] >> What do you see in the video that he
[00:50:28] decided to enter into?
[00:50:29] >> Where do you see in the video that he
[00:50:31] was assaulting law enforcement? Because
[00:50:32] from everything we have seen, law
[00:50:34] enforcement was assaulting him when he
[00:50:37] was there trying to help another
[00:50:39] individual.
[00:50:40] >> Dana, law enforcement doesn't assault
[00:50:41] anyone. Follow directions of law
[00:50:43] enforcement. Follow directions of law
[00:50:46] enforcement in an active crime scene.
[00:50:49] >> Again, they're talking past each other.
[00:50:51] But the point is this. What he's saying
[00:50:53] in that tape with Dana Bash is much more
[00:50:54] justifiable than what he said. He
[00:50:56] doesn't have a defense to the idea that
[00:50:57] that Freddy was there to commit a
[00:50:59] massacre because that doesn't appear
[00:51:01] again from the video to be the case. Now
[00:51:04] maybe they can show extraneous evidence
[00:51:05] that is the case, but that's why you do
[00:51:07] an investigation and that's why it is
[00:51:09] important again we want to uphold your
[00:51:10] credibility. I would like for ICE to be
[00:51:12] able to do its job. The best way for ICE
[00:51:14] to do its job is to say we follow the
[00:51:17] law. If you get in the way of us
[00:51:19] following the law, you will be arrested.
[00:51:21] It raises the risk of bad things
[00:51:23] happening to you if you get arrested
[00:51:25] while carrying a gun and resisting
[00:51:26] arrest.
[00:51:28] That's it. And there will be full
[00:51:30] investigations,
[00:51:31] but don't do it. Let us enforce the law.
[00:51:35] And now there's another line that was
[00:51:37] retailed by a couple of members of the
[00:51:38] administration that I think is the wrong
[00:51:40] line suggesting that there is something
[00:51:42] wrong with protesting even with a gun.
[00:51:43] Now again, be specific in your language.
[00:51:45] Don't resist law enforcement while
[00:51:47] carrying Don't resist law enforcement at
[00:51:48] all and don't resist law enforcement
[00:51:50] while carrying a gun. It raises the risk
[00:51:51] that somebody is going to see you as a
[00:51:53] deadly threat cuz you're carrying a
[00:51:54] deadly weapon. Obviously, that would be
[00:51:56] a normal thing to say. But when Cash
[00:51:59] Patel at the FBI says, "No one who wants
[00:52:01] to be peaceful shows up at a protest
[00:52:03] with a firearm," that obviously is not
[00:52:04] true. But as Secretary Gnome said, "No
[00:52:07] one who wants to be peaceful shows up at
[00:52:10] a protest with a firearm that is loaded
[00:52:12] with two full magazines." That is not a
[00:52:15] peaceful protest. And you do not get to
[00:52:17] touch law enforcement. You do that
[00:52:19] anywhere. This FBI is going to be
[00:52:20] following the leading the charge to
[00:52:22] arrest those.
[00:52:23] >> But but how was he threatening Border
[00:52:25] Patrol? You you've collected the
[00:52:27] evidence, you said, right? You have the
[00:52:28] handgun in your possession.
[00:52:31] >> That's right.
[00:52:32] >> And and how was he using that handgun in
[00:52:34] terms of threatening Border Patrol? What
[00:52:36] was the threat? He had his camera,
[00:52:38] right? He was filming it.
[00:52:40] >> That's something that I will let the DHS
[00:52:42] and the prosecutors because they are the
[00:52:43] ones investigating that case. I don't
[00:52:45] want to stylize that evidence.
[00:52:47] Again, that is the that should have been
[00:52:49] the primary response from the beginning.
[00:52:51] We are going to look into it. There will
[00:52:53] be a full investigation. This is not
[00:52:55] difficult stuff. Scott Bessant, the
[00:52:56] Treasury Secretary, suggests, of course,
[00:52:58] that there is something wrong with going
[00:52:59] to a protest with a gun. This is not
[00:53:00] true. It's not true. I have a lot of
[00:53:02] friends who've gone to various protests
[00:53:04] while legally carrying firearms because
[00:53:05] that is legal in the United States.
[00:53:08] >> I mean, as you know, he was an ICU
[00:53:09] nurse, worked for the Veterans
[00:53:11] Administration, and there's no evidence
[00:53:13] that he brandished the gun whatsoever.
[00:53:15] In fact, it appears he was disarmed
[00:53:17] before.
[00:53:17] >> He brought a gun. Have you ever gone to
[00:53:19] a protest, Jonathan?
[00:53:20] >> I mean, we do have a second amendment in
[00:53:21] this country. That
[00:53:22] >> Jonath Jonathan, have you ever gone to a
[00:53:23] protest?
[00:53:24] >> I mean, um,
[00:53:25] >> have you gone to a protest?
[00:53:26] >> I mean, I've I've no actually as a
[00:53:28] reporter covering it. Uh,
[00:53:29] >> okay. I've been to a protest. Guess
[00:53:31] what? I didn't bring a gun. I brought a
[00:53:33] billboard.
[00:53:33] >> Okay. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. Again,
[00:53:36] don't resist officers while carrying a
[00:53:38] gun. Don't resist officers at all. PR
[00:53:41] matters when you're in a PR war.
[00:53:42] Democrats have started a PR war and a
[00:53:45] violent a violent chaotic
[00:53:49] conflict in Minneapolis to say the very
[00:53:51] least. Okay. So, what should happen
[00:53:53] next? That's the big question. So, there
[00:53:55] are some James Comr, Republican, staunch
[00:53:58] Trump supporter, who suggest that maybe
[00:54:00] ICE should just pull out of Minneapolis.
[00:54:02] Let them have at it. If I were President
[00:54:04] Trump, I would almost uh think about,
[00:54:07] okay, if if the mayor and the governor
[00:54:09] are going to put our ICE officials in
[00:54:11] harm's way and and there's a chance of
[00:54:14] losing more uh you know, innocent lives
[00:54:16] or whatever, then then maybe go to
[00:54:18] another city and let the people of
[00:54:20] Minneapolis decide, do we want to
[00:54:21] continue to have all of these illegals?
[00:54:24] Are we going to allow our uh governor,
[00:54:26] attorney general, and mayor uh to get
[00:54:28] away with this? And I think the people
[00:54:30] of Minnesota would rebel against their
[00:54:32] leadership because it's very clear that
[00:54:34] a majority of Americans want the
[00:54:36] criminal illegals apprehended and that's
[00:54:38] what ICE is trying to do.
[00:54:40] >> Okay. So again, the he's not the only
[00:54:42] one who's calling for a sort of pause or
[00:54:44] or moving away from Minneapolis. The
[00:54:46] Wall Street Journal editorial board
[00:54:47] suggests that President Trump would be
[00:54:48] wise to pause ICE enforcement in the
[00:54:50] Twin Cities to ease tensions and
[00:54:51] consider a less provocative strategy.
[00:54:54] They admit that the left would then
[00:54:55] conclude their civil disobedience has
[00:54:56] paid off. Okay, so here's the problem.
[00:54:58] It's a catch 22 for the Trump
[00:54:59] administration because if the Trump
[00:55:01] administration continues to pursue
[00:55:02] operations the way that they are
[00:55:04] currently going, there will be likely
[00:55:05] more of these incidents because if
[00:55:07] people resist arrest and obstruct law
[00:55:08] enforcement, they are likely to meet
[00:55:10] with violent ends in some cases. At the
[00:55:12] same time, if you abandon the city, then
[00:55:15] the apparent notice has gone out that if
[00:55:17] you're a blue city or a blue state, you
[00:55:18] can simply repel federal law authority
[00:55:21] by sending a bunch of protesters in the
[00:55:22] streets to obstruct federal law
[00:55:24] enforcement and maybe get shot on
[00:55:25] camera. And you can't run a popsicle
[00:55:28] stand that way. You can't run a country
[00:55:29] that way. You can't enforce federal law
[00:55:30] that way. In my opinion, the president
[00:55:32] of the United States should invite
[00:55:33] Governor Walls to the White House and
[00:55:35] Jacob Fry and he should sit them down
[00:55:37] and he should say, "Listen, we are
[00:55:39] focused solely on enforcing the law with
[00:55:42] regard to criminal illegal immigrants.
[00:55:45] If you continue to obstruct that, we
[00:55:48] will continue to enforce the law, but
[00:55:50] federal money will go away for any
[00:55:53] projects to which we can legally remove
[00:55:56] that funding. You make suggestions on
[00:55:58] how we can better facilitate the removal
[00:56:00] of criminal illegal immigrants. We're
[00:56:02] not going to stop enforcing the law
[00:56:03] because you activate protesters. We're
[00:56:05] not going to do it. It's up to you. You
[00:56:07] tell us how we solve this problem. And
[00:56:10] one option that is not on the table is
[00:56:12] refusal to enforce federal law. You tell
[00:56:15] us what does that look like? Because
[00:56:17] you're not helping us. We would love
[00:56:18] your help. You say that your local law
[00:56:20] enforcement is better trained. Great.
[00:56:22] When they have an arrest and that person
[00:56:23] is a criminal, they should inform ICE
[00:56:26] about who is an illegal immigrant and
[00:56:28] ICE can come pick them up. And that
[00:56:29] makes it a lot easier.
[00:56:32] You tell us how do we solve the problem.
[00:56:35] But here's the precondition. The
[00:56:36] precondition is federal law will be
[00:56:38] enforced. And if you do not, if you if
[00:56:41] you get in the way of federal law
[00:56:43] enforcement,
[00:56:44] then whatever legal options we have are
[00:56:48] on the table to enforce federal law.
[00:56:51] Because again, this is a systemic
[00:56:53] problem. This is not merely a a sort of
[00:56:56] oneoff.
[00:56:57] If the goal here is if the idea from now
[00:57:00] on is that anytime there is a federal
[00:57:02] law enforcement agency that attempts to
[00:57:04] pursue the law that local protesters can
[00:57:07] create chaos and then drive federal law
[00:57:09] enforcement out of their state, then you
[00:57:11] have effectively state nullification of
[00:57:13] federal law.
[00:57:15] That really is the predicate to civil
[00:57:19] war. It is it is a giant fail. It should
[00:57:23] not happen.
[00:57:25] But we're all ears. If Governor Walls
[00:57:28] and Jacob Fry don't like the way that
[00:57:29] the law is being enforced in
[00:57:30] Minneapolis, show us how the law should
[00:57:33] be enforced in Minneapolis, short of it
[00:57:36] shouldn't be enforced at all. Because it
[00:57:37] shouldn't be enforced at all is not a
[00:57:40] legally tenable position or a morally
[00:57:43] tenable position. All righty, the show
[00:57:45] is continuing for our members. Right

[00:58:00] >> What was it like, Merlin, to be alone
[00:58:03] with God?
[00:58:05] [screaming]
[00:58:09] >> Is that who you think I was alone with?
[00:58:15] >> Minan, I knew your father. I am yet
[00:58:17] convinced that he was not of this world.
[00:58:22] All men know of the [music] great
[00:58:24] Talasin. You are my father and the gods
[00:58:27] should war for my soul.
[00:58:30] >> Princess Garis, savior of our people.
[00:58:35] >> I know what the bull god offered you. I
[00:58:38] was offered the same.
[00:58:40] >> And
[00:58:41] there is a new power at work in the
[00:58:43] world. I've seen it. [music]
[00:58:46] >> A god who sacrifices what he loves for
[00:58:48] us. We are each given only one life
[00:58:50] singer.
[00:58:51] >> No, we're given another. [music]
[00:58:56] >> I learned of Yazu the Christ. And I have
[00:58:59] become his follower. He's waiting on a
[00:59:01] miracle. And I think you can give him
[00:59:03] one.
[00:59:04] >> Trust in Yazu. He is the only hope for
[00:59:07] men like us.
[00:59:08] >> Fate of Britain [music] never rests in
[00:59:09] the hands of the great light.
[00:59:11] >> Great light, great darkness. Such things
[00:59:14] mattered to me then. What matters to you
[00:59:17] now, mistress of lies?
[00:59:20] >> You, nephew,
[00:59:25] >> the sword of a high king.
[00:59:29] How many lives must be lost before you
[00:59:31] accept the power you were born to wield?
[00:59:36] So cling to the promises of a god who
[00:59:38] has abandoned you. I
[00:59:40] >> cannot take up that sword again.
[00:59:43] >> You know what you must do.
[00:59:46] Great life. Forgive me.
[00:59:55] The time has come to be reborn.
