1 00:00:00,840 --> 00:00:03,800 Speaker 1: ICE agents repeatedly ordered her to get out of the 2 00:00:03,800 --> 00:00:07,480 Speaker 1: car and to stop instructing obstructing law enforcement, but she 3 00:00:07,600 --> 00:00:10,880 Speaker 1: refused to obey their commands. She then proceeded to weaponize 4 00:00:10,920 --> 00:00:13,880 Speaker 1: her vehicle and she attempted to run an law enforcement 5 00:00:13,920 --> 00:00:18,239 Speaker 1: officer over. This appears as an attempt to kill or 6 00:00:18,280 --> 00:00:22,960 Speaker 1: to cause bodily harm to agents, an act of domestic terrorism. 7 00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:27,560 Speaker 2: You're listening to the forty seven Morning Update with Ben ferguson. 8 00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:28,960 Speaker 3: Good Thursday morning. Nice to have you with us on 9 00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:31,640 Speaker 3: the forty seven Morning Update, and we've got one major 10 00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:35,080 Speaker 3: story for you. It deals with the events in Minnesota. 11 00:00:35,240 --> 00:00:37,680 Speaker 3: A woman who decided to use her car as a 12 00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:41,920 Speaker 3: weapon to run over ICE agents, the ICE agent shooting back, 13 00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:45,320 Speaker 3: and unfortunately she lost her life. So why is the 14 00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:49,160 Speaker 3: left weaponizing this and calling for more individuals to put 15 00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:52,080 Speaker 3: their lives at risk as well? We'll break it all 16 00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:55,560 Speaker 3: down for you, plus the facts of actually what happened. 17 00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:59,000 Speaker 3: It's the forty seven Morning Update and it starts right now. 18 00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:00,400 Speaker 2: Story number one. 19 00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:02,960 Speaker 3: There is one major story that we are going to 20 00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:06,039 Speaker 3: deal with extensively. It deals with a woman who is 21 00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:10,600 Speaker 3: fatally shot in Minneapolis by ICE and she was shot 22 00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:13,680 Speaker 3: through the front of her windshield as she tried to 23 00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:18,319 Speaker 3: drive over an ICE agent. There are a lot of 24 00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:22,399 Speaker 3: lies online claiming that the ICE agent shut her through 25 00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:27,319 Speaker 3: the passenger window. That did not happen. As the car wrecked, 26 00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:31,120 Speaker 3: you can clearly see a bullet through the front window. 27 00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:35,640 Speaker 3: That bullet hole is extremely important when it comes to 28 00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:39,920 Speaker 3: evidence because it shows that that car was driving directly 29 00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:43,240 Speaker 3: towards the ICE agent when he had no other choice 30 00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:46,280 Speaker 3: but to shoot to protect and save his own life 31 00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:51,560 Speaker 3: and others around him. This was preventable. It is also 32 00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:55,240 Speaker 3: tragic when someone loses their life, But what also is 33 00:01:55,480 --> 00:02:01,280 Speaker 3: preventable is the anarchy that is being advocated by the left. 34 00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:05,320 Speaker 3: To be clear, this woman and others had an essence 35 00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:09,920 Speaker 3: joined together to follow, to stalk, and to stop ICE 36 00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:14,000 Speaker 3: agents from doing their job. If I don't want to 37 00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:17,280 Speaker 3: pay my taxes, it doesn't mean that I can drive 38 00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:23,240 Speaker 3: my car into well the IRS building. If I think 39 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:25,840 Speaker 3: my tax rate is too high, it doesn't mean that 40 00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:29,800 Speaker 3: I can just go after IRS agents. You go to 41 00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:34,200 Speaker 3: your members of Congress, you plead your case, you vote 42 00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:37,280 Speaker 3: on election day, you get involved and pick people that 43 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:40,040 Speaker 3: you believe are going to side with you. But what 44 00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:43,760 Speaker 3: the Left has done is they have told their followers 45 00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:45,880 Speaker 3: that they can go out and just do whatever they 46 00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:50,240 Speaker 3: want to do without any accountability, Which brings me back 47 00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:54,640 Speaker 3: to what I said. This was a preventable death, a 48 00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:58,000 Speaker 3: death that was inspired by the anarchists on the left 49 00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:02,480 Speaker 3: who are advocating for pace to literally be vigilantes, and 50 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:05,560 Speaker 3: when you do this, it can cost people their lives. 51 00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:10,120 Speaker 3: What's also really sick about this woman losing her life 52 00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:14,280 Speaker 3: is the fact that the left is actually excited over it. 53 00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:18,760 Speaker 3: They wanted something like this to happen so that they 54 00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:22,120 Speaker 3: could then use it to attack Donald Trump and ICE agents. 55 00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:26,320 Speaker 3: They were looking for a flash point, whereas Democrats have said, 56 00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:30,440 Speaker 3: you never let a crisis go to waste, which brings 57 00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 3: me to Christino. Christy know, the woman in charge the 58 00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:39,720 Speaker 3: Department of Homeland Security was in Minneapolis and she had 59 00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:43,400 Speaker 3: very clear message for the men and women in uniform 60 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:46,960 Speaker 3: and actually the facts around this case. I want to 61 00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:48,760 Speaker 3: play that for you in a moment, but before I 62 00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 3: even do that, I want you to also hear what 63 00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:53,320 Speaker 3: Jadie Vance said. He put out a tweet a couple 64 00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:57,440 Speaker 3: hours ago saying, quote, I want every ICE officer to 65 00:03:57,520 --> 00:04:02,120 Speaker 3: know that their president Vice present, and the entire administration 66 00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:07,960 Speaker 3: stands behind them. To the radicals assaulting them, doxing them, 67 00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:12,840 Speaker 3: and threatening them, Congratulations, We're going to work even harder 68 00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:17,520 Speaker 3: to enforce the law. Secretary Nome detailing the self defense 69 00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:20,839 Speaker 3: shooting in Minneapolis, and here is what she had to say. 70 00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:24,480 Speaker 1: Any loss of life is a tragedy, and I think 71 00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:26,960 Speaker 1: all of us can agree that in this situation, it 72 00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:30,160 Speaker 1: was preventable. I've spoken to the President today on the 73 00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:32,479 Speaker 1: situation here on the ground. I also just got off 74 00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:35,440 Speaker 1: the phone a little while ago with Governor Walls and spoke. 75 00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:35,920 Speaker 4: To him as well. 76 00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:38,480 Speaker 1: I want to reiterate first with all of you. 77 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:40,200 Speaker 4: The facts of what happened today. 78 00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:44,159 Speaker 1: At ten twenty five am Central time, Immigration and Customs 79 00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:48,599 Speaker 1: enforcement were carrying out lawful operations here in Minneapolis because 80 00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:51,279 Speaker 1: of the adverse weather that Minneapolis has seen in recent snow. 81 00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:54,400 Speaker 1: One of the vehicles became stuck and ensnared in the snow. 82 00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:58,240 Speaker 1: Law enforcement were attempting to push out this vehicle, and 83 00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:01,680 Speaker 1: when a mob of agitation that were harassing them all 84 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:05,440 Speaker 1: day began blocking them in, shouting at them, and impeding 85 00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:10,000 Speaker 1: law enforcement operations, ICE officers and agents approached the vehicle 86 00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:13,200 Speaker 1: of the individual in question, who was blocking the officers 87 00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:16,880 Speaker 1: in with her vehicle, and she had been stalking and impeding. 88 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:18,000 Speaker 4: Their work all throughout the day. 89 00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:21,640 Speaker 1: ICE agents repeatedly ordered her to get out of the 90 00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:25,520 Speaker 1: car and to stop instructing obstructing law enforcement, but she 91 00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:29,320 Speaker 1: refused to obey their commands. She then proceeded to weaponize 92 00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:32,520 Speaker 1: her vehicle, and she attempted to run an law enforcement 93 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:37,080 Speaker 1: officer over. This appears as an attempt to kill or 94 00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:40,839 Speaker 1: to cause bodily harm to agents, an act of domestic 95 00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:44,680 Speaker 1: domestic terrorism. The ICE officer, fearing for his life and 96 00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:48,080 Speaker 1: the other officers around him and the safety of the public, 97 00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:51,320 Speaker 1: fired defensive shots. He used his training to save his 98 00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:54,080 Speaker 1: own life and that of his colleagues. He was treated 99 00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:56,560 Speaker 1: at a local hospital, has been released and is now 100 00:05:56,600 --> 00:06:00,000 Speaker 1: with family. I encourage the American people at this point 101 00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:02,200 Speaker 1: time to pray for him, but also to pray for 102 00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:06,960 Speaker 1: the deceased family and her loved ones. Today alone in 103 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:10,320 Speaker 1: this country, there have been four different domestic terrorist attacks 104 00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:14,279 Speaker 1: on federal officers by the ramming of vehicles. Three of 105 00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:18,400 Speaker 1: them happened here in Minneapolis. We've seen over one hundred 106 00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:21,760 Speaker 1: of these vehicle rammings happen in just recent weeks, and 107 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:25,479 Speaker 1: this must stop. ICE alone is facing a thirteen hundred 108 00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:29,279 Speaker 1: percent increase in assaults against them and an eight thousand 109 00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:30,960 Speaker 1: percent increase. 110 00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:32,360 Speaker 4: In death threats against all of them. 111 00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 1: In fact, the very same officer who was attacked today 112 00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:39,240 Speaker 1: had previously been dragged by an anti ICE rioder who 113 00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:42,160 Speaker 1: had rammed him with a car and drug him back 114 00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:45,120 Speaker 1: in June. He sustained injuries at that time as well. 115 00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:47,960 Speaker 1: And let me remind you why we're all here in 116 00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:51,800 Speaker 1: the city today and why we've been here in communities 117 00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:55,360 Speaker 1: across this country and here in Minneapolis. We're just enforcing 118 00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:57,840 Speaker 1: the laws that we have in this country. For years, 119 00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:03,480 Speaker 1: under President Biden, tens of millions of dangerous criminal illegal aliens, terrorists, 120 00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:06,760 Speaker 1: and suspected terrorists were allowed to invade our country over 121 00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:09,960 Speaker 1: our southern border. They were allowed to steal, to defraud, 122 00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:14,800 Speaker 1: and to perpetuate violence against American citizens. Regardless of who 123 00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 1: your mayor or who your governor is. President Trump promised 124 00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:21,880 Speaker 1: every single American that he would make America safe again. 125 00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:25,640 Speaker 1: He promised every single American that he would work to 126 00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:29,520 Speaker 1: protect them from dangerous criminals. Since Governor Walls has been 127 00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:32,840 Speaker 1: in charge of Minnesota, we have seen homicides go up 128 00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:36,840 Speaker 1: by over fifty percent. That's also during Mayor Fries's tenure 129 00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:37,360 Speaker 1: as well. 130 00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:39,080 Speaker 4: Since President Trump. 131 00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:42,440 Speaker 1: Took office, Governor Walls has released over four hundred and 132 00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:46,400 Speaker 1: seventy violent criminals back onto the streets here in Minneapolis. 133 00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:49,560 Speaker 1: He has another six hundred and eighty of them still 134 00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:52,200 Speaker 1: within his jurisdiction that he could give to us today 135 00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:56,520 Speaker 1: to face the consequences for their crimes. Because Governor Walls 136 00:07:56,520 --> 00:08:00,360 Speaker 1: and Mayor Fry refused to protect Minnesotan's and its, it's dead, 137 00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:03,600 Speaker 1: they protect these criminals. That's why we are here. And 138 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:06,560 Speaker 1: we didn't just show up yesterday. We've always been here. 139 00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:09,840 Speaker 1: But we're surging operations because of the dangerous situation we 140 00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:12,360 Speaker 1: see in this country and because we're no longer going 141 00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:16,800 Speaker 1: to allow illegal criminals to damage and harm, to kill, 142 00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:21,080 Speaker 1: to sexually abuse, to proliferate drugs, and to steal American 143 00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:22,200 Speaker 1: taxpayers dollars. 144 00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:26,360 Speaker 3: Let me just stop there for a moment. You listen 145 00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:31,480 Speaker 3: to what happened in this situation. The woman is ordered 146 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:36,000 Speaker 3: out of her car, she refuses. She then uses that 147 00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:41,440 Speaker 3: car and backs it up. She then drives forward literally 148 00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:45,200 Speaker 3: into an ICE agent. The ICE agent pulls out, is 149 00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:51,000 Speaker 3: gone only when she starts moving towards his body, into 150 00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:58,240 Speaker 3: his body. This is self defense. That should be a 151 00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:03,000 Speaker 3: simple case close. But you have these radicals on the 152 00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:06,440 Speaker 3: left who are sitting there and they are saying that 153 00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:12,319 Speaker 3: somehow this was not a justifiable shooting. She proceeded to 154 00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:15,280 Speaker 3: weaponize her car. I want to go back to that 155 00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:15,840 Speaker 3: with Christy. 156 00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:15,959 Speaker 1: No. 157 00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:17,520 Speaker 3: Listen again carefully. 158 00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:22,560 Speaker 1: At ten twenty five am Central time, Immigration and Customs 159 00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:26,960 Speaker 1: enforcement were carrying out lawful operations here in Minneapolis because 160 00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:29,640 Speaker 1: of the adverse weather that Minneapolis has seen in recent snow. 161 00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:32,760 Speaker 1: One of the vehicles became stuck and ensnared in the snow. 162 00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:36,920 Speaker 1: Law enforcement were attempting to push out this vehicle, and 163 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:40,080 Speaker 1: when a mob of agitators that were harassing them all 164 00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:44,360 Speaker 1: day began blocking them in, shouting at them, and impeding. 165 00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:45,280 Speaker 4: Law enforcement operations. 166 00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:49,280 Speaker 1: ICE officers and agents approached the vehicle of the individual 167 00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:52,559 Speaker 1: in question who was blocking the officers in with her vehicle, 168 00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:55,280 Speaker 1: and she had been stalking and impeding. 169 00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:56,360 Speaker 4: Their work all throughout the day. 170 00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:59,839 Speaker 1: ICE agents repeatedly ordered her to get out of the 171 00:09:59,880 --> 00:10:03,880 Speaker 1: ca and to stop in obstructing law enforcement, but she 172 00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:07,679 Speaker 1: refused to obey their commands. She then proceeded to weaponize 173 00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:10,880 Speaker 1: her vehicle and she attempted to run an law enforcement 174 00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:15,439 Speaker 1: officer over. This appears as an attempt to kill or 175 00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:19,199 Speaker 1: to cause bodily harm to agents, an act of domestic 176 00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:23,040 Speaker 1: domestic terrorism. The ice officer, fearing for his life and 177 00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:26,440 Speaker 1: the other officers around him and the safety of the public, 178 00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:29,680 Speaker 1: fired defensive shots. He used his training to save his 179 00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:32,440 Speaker 1: own life and that of his colleagues. He was treated 180 00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:34,920 Speaker 1: at a local hospital, has been released and is now 181 00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:38,400 Speaker 1: with family. I encourage the American people at this point 182 00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:40,440 Speaker 1: in time to pray for him, but also to pray 183 00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:43,240 Speaker 1: for the deceased family and her loved ones. 184 00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:51,559 Speaker 3: That is compassion by the Department Point Security telling compassionately 185 00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:56,960 Speaker 3: pray for this woman. Apparently the wife of this woman 186 00:10:57,160 --> 00:11:00,920 Speaker 3: was outside the car and filming her while she was 187 00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:05,720 Speaker 3: actively blocking Ice vehicles. Apparently, after the shooting, it's being reported, 188 00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:09,040 Speaker 3: she ran back to check on renee. She tells a 189 00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:11,520 Speaker 3: near my man, that's my wife. When asked if she 190 00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:13,760 Speaker 3: can call family, she says, we're new here. I don't 191 00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:17,440 Speaker 3: have people. I can't even breathe right now it is 192 00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:21,840 Speaker 3: incredibly sad to see that the left has decided to 193 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:28,640 Speaker 3: weaponize their own followers and put them in harm's way. 194 00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:32,680 Speaker 3: But this was a domestic tear attack in Minneapolis against 195 00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:38,240 Speaker 3: ICE agents. Hundreds of ICE agents have been rammed by cars, 196 00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:42,240 Speaker 3: which are deadly weapons. Where do you think they learn 197 00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:46,320 Speaker 3: to do this to impede to stop law enforcement, who, 198 00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:52,319 Speaker 3: by the way, are just doing their jobs. Sinator Mullen 199 00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:55,960 Speaker 3: put it this way, saying, quote, ICE agents aren't Disney villains. 200 00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:59,200 Speaker 3: There are neighbors, friends and loved ones. These immigration and 201 00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:03,440 Speaker 3: customs enforcement officers are red blood American patriots doing a 202 00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:07,240 Speaker 3: tough job to keep our nation safe. Assaults against ICE 203 00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:09,960 Speaker 3: agents because of the Democratic Party, because of the left 204 00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:13,920 Speaker 3: roup one three hundred percent. He then said, I stand 205 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:18,440 Speaker 3: with DHS Congress Sandy Barr. ICE agents are enforcing America's 206 00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:24,880 Speaker 3: laws and delivering exactly what the people voted for. Secure 207 00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:29,360 Speaker 3: border and the deportations of dangerous illegal criminals. Targeting ICE 208 00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:34,559 Speaker 3: agents will never end well for anyone who tries Homeland security. 209 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:37,559 Speaker 3: Putting it out this way, saying this today, ICE officers 210 00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:43,360 Speaker 3: in Minneapolis were conducting targeted operations when riders began blocking 211 00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:46,920 Speaker 3: Ice officers. In one of these violent rioters weaponized their vehicle, 212 00:12:47,559 --> 00:12:50,760 Speaker 3: attempting to run over law enforcement officers and attempt to 213 00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:54,560 Speaker 3: kill them an act of domestic terrorism. An ICE officer, 214 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:56,719 Speaker 3: fearing for his life, the lives of his fellow law 215 00:12:56,760 --> 00:13:00,960 Speaker 3: enforcement and safety of the public, fired defensive shots. He 216 00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:03,240 Speaker 3: uses training and saved his own life and that of 217 00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:07,960 Speaker 3: his fellow officers. The alleged perpetrator was hit and his deceased. 218 00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:10,839 Speaker 3: The Ice officers who were heart or expected to make 219 00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:15,719 Speaker 3: full recoveries. This is the direct consequence of constant attacks 220 00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:23,160 Speaker 3: and demonization of our officers by sanctuary politicians who fuel 221 00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:27,240 Speaker 3: and encourage rampant assaults on our law enforcement who are 222 00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:30,720 Speaker 3: facing this one three hundred percent increase in assaults against 223 00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:35,960 Speaker 3: them and an eight thousand percent increase in death threats. 224 00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:41,760 Speaker 3: I couldn't agree more. I could not agree more with 225 00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:46,120 Speaker 3: the law enforcement Department of Home Insecurities saying we are 226 00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:50,400 Speaker 3: just enforcing the law. We're doing our job. Why was 227 00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:53,640 Speaker 3: this woman in a situation where she thought she could 228 00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:57,839 Speaker 3: do this. It's very simple. She didn't want to be 229 00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:02,560 Speaker 3: held accountable for blocking the Department of Homeland Security and 230 00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:08,679 Speaker 3: ICE agents, and she decided she decided to go after 231 00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:12,760 Speaker 3: and use her car as a deadly weapon. The driver 232 00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:16,280 Speaker 3: refused to get out, accelerated towards the agent directly in 233 00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:18,680 Speaker 3: front of the car. He fired rounds, killing her. And 234 00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:23,440 Speaker 3: the leftists are then promising violent retribution towards ICE agents, 235 00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:26,640 Speaker 3: wanting to kill more ICE agents. By the way, they've 236 00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:31,080 Speaker 3: already shot ICE agents. I'll give you an example of 237 00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:33,960 Speaker 3: what the left's putting online. One person on x wrote, 238 00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:36,360 Speaker 3: all ICE agents must be put down like the dogs 239 00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:41,080 Speaker 3: they are. This is the Democratic Party, this is the 240 00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:45,840 Speaker 3: party of violence. Look no further than how they reply 241 00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:52,040 Speaker 3: online to this. Let me say one final thing, God 242 00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:55,200 Speaker 3: bless are men and women who are willing to go 243 00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:58,920 Speaker 3: do these jobs. They are getting more and more dangerous. 244 00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:02,360 Speaker 3: It's the governor of that state. He called the ICE 245 00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:08,040 Speaker 3: agents months ago the Gestapo. This is exactly why stuff 246 00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:12,600 Speaker 3: happens like this. This woman and around the country, we've 247 00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:17,960 Speaker 3: seen hundreds of ramming of ICE agents this year. In 248 00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:20,400 Speaker 3: the last month, we've seen more than one hundred ramming 249 00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:24,480 Speaker 3: with cars of ICE agents. It results in her life 250 00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:29,080 Speaker 3: being lost because of the Left who is inspiring her 251 00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:31,160 Speaker 3: to go do this and trying to make her believe 252 00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:36,960 Speaker 3: that somehow this is acceptable. What's also shocking is the 253 00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:42,360 Speaker 3: mayor there, the mayor saying disgusting things about our men 254 00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:47,560 Speaker 3: and women in uniform after this happened, the mayor saying this, 255 00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:50,080 Speaker 3: and I want you to listen carefully to the words 256 00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:51,520 Speaker 3: that he decided to use. 257 00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:56,160 Speaker 5: There's little I can say again that'll make this situation better. 258 00:15:56,520 --> 00:15:59,800 Speaker 5: But I do have a message for our community, for 259 00:15:59,840 --> 00:16:05,280 Speaker 5: us city, and I have a message for ICE to 260 00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:08,239 Speaker 5: ICE get the out of Minneapolis. 261 00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:13,120 Speaker 3: That is the Democratic mayor Jacob Fries's message to our 262 00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:15,800 Speaker 3: brave ICE agents in Minneapolis who are getting the worst 263 00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:20,880 Speaker 3: criminals off of his streets. And this deranged lunatic of 264 00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:24,200 Speaker 3: a mayor who is inspiring other lunatics to try to 265 00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:28,640 Speaker 3: murder those ICE agents, he says, get the f out 266 00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:33,520 Speaker 3: of Minneapolis. The Democratic Party's violent rhetoric is what is 267 00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:37,520 Speaker 3: fueling these attacks on ICE agents. And they do not 268 00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:42,040 Speaker 3: care about this woman, because if they did care about 269 00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:45,200 Speaker 3: this woman, they wouldn't be telling her to go out 270 00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:49,520 Speaker 3: and to do this. Period. And by the way, if 271 00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:53,600 Speaker 3: you think that the mayor of Minneapolis is going to 272 00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:57,800 Speaker 3: come to his senses and ratchet this down, this rhetoric 273 00:16:58,080 --> 00:17:01,400 Speaker 3: which is calling for the attacks on ICE agents. I 274 00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:03,160 Speaker 3: want you to listen to the second part of what 275 00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:04,680 Speaker 3: he had to say carefully. 276 00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:09,399 Speaker 6: People are being hurt, Families are being ripped apart. Long 277 00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:14,000 Speaker 6: term Minneapolis residents that have contributed so greatly to our city, 278 00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:17,639 Speaker 6: to our culture, to our economy are being terrorized. And 279 00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:24,080 Speaker 6: now somebody is dead. That's on you, and it's also 280 00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:24,920 Speaker 6: on you to leave. 281 00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:28,840 Speaker 3: It's on you, and it's on you to leave. It's 282 00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:31,639 Speaker 3: amazing how they care so much about the life of 283 00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:35,520 Speaker 3: this woman who tried to run over an ICE agent, 284 00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:38,320 Speaker 3: but they don't care the lives about the lives of 285 00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:42,240 Speaker 3: those in Minneapolis who have been murdered by the same 286 00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:48,280 Speaker 3: exact criminals, or raped or beaten or stolen from They 287 00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:55,800 Speaker 3: do not care about those people's lives. They don't care 288 00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:58,720 Speaker 3: about the countless people in Minneapolis that have been murdered 289 00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:03,760 Speaker 3: by illegal immigrants. And there have been countless. There have 290 00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:07,600 Speaker 3: been people that have been killed by illegal immigrants who 291 00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:10,280 Speaker 3: were driving drunk or under the influence of drugs. There 292 00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:12,560 Speaker 3: are people that have died at the hands of illegal 293 00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:16,240 Speaker 3: immigrants because they sold them fake pills laced with fetanyl. 294 00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:21,040 Speaker 3: This is the reality of the situation. Scott Jennings, good 295 00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:23,800 Speaker 3: friend of mine over at CNN. He went on there 296 00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:26,080 Speaker 3: and he said it this way, and I couldn't agree 297 00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:26,639 Speaker 3: with him more. 298 00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:30,480 Speaker 7: What strikes me is, first of all, it's extremely sad 299 00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:33,479 Speaker 7: and unfortunate that someone died. I mean the political fighting 300 00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:37,399 Speaker 7: and disagreements aside. It's terrible. You don't want people to 301 00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:40,960 Speaker 7: die in law enforcement situations or otherwise. But it strikes 302 00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:45,480 Speaker 7: me that we are undergoing an epidemic of political vigilanteism 303 00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:50,679 Speaker 7: right now. Why are people showing up in vehicles in convoys, 304 00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:54,119 Speaker 7: not just in Minneapolis, but all over the country in 305 00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:59,439 Speaker 7: an effort to obstruct lawful federal law enforcement activities. This 306 00:18:59,520 --> 00:19:02,080 Speaker 7: is not any incident. We have had hundreds of car 307 00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:06,440 Speaker 7: rammings against ICE agents all over the country. According to DHS, 308 00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:09,560 Speaker 7: this lady in this car today, along with other vehicles, 309 00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:13,800 Speaker 7: had been tracking ICE agents around. Why are people believing 310 00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:16,919 Speaker 7: that they can drive their car into a federal law 311 00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:20,000 Speaker 7: enforcement situation and that is an appropriate thing to do. 312 00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:23,120 Speaker 7: I understand they don't like the fact that these agents 313 00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:26,439 Speaker 7: are enforcing existing immigration law, but that's not how we 314 00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:28,720 Speaker 7: change laws in this country. If you don't like a law, 315 00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:31,639 Speaker 7: you talk to the politicians. You don't drive your car 316 00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:34,400 Speaker 7: into the middle of a building or a law enforcement 317 00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:37,560 Speaker 7: situation that's being occupied by the people who are simply 318 00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:39,719 Speaker 7: there to enforce the law. If I don't like how 319 00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:42,200 Speaker 7: much the IRS is charging me in taxes, I don't 320 00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:44,800 Speaker 7: drive my car into the Treasury Department try to run 321 00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:49,200 Speaker 7: somebody over. I call my congressman. Political vigilanteism is being 322 00:19:49,359 --> 00:19:53,320 Speaker 7: encouraged by Democratic officials like the Lieutenant Governor of Minnesota, 323 00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:56,240 Speaker 7: Peggy Flanagan, who earlier this year told people to quote 324 00:19:56,280 --> 00:20:00,120 Speaker 7: put your bodies on the line, and Tim Wall's calling 325 00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:03,200 Speaker 7: these guys gestapo all year. What do you think happens 326 00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:05,800 Speaker 7: when you radicalize a base of people. It doesn't. 327 00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:07,840 Speaker 3: I couldn't agree with him more. 328 00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:10,640 Speaker 2: Thank you for listening to the forty seven Morning Update 329 00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:14,880 Speaker 2: with Ben Ferguson.
