Latest / The Ben Ferguson Podcast / Walz Escalates Rhetoric, Suggests Minnesota Is ‘At War’ w Federal Government
Transcript
- 0:01Speaker 1: Center, Ted Cruz and I set down and talked about
- 0:04Speaker 1: what all is happening with ICE agents being targeted. We've
- 0:08Speaker 1: talked about following the money, which is so vitally important.
- 0:12Speaker 1: Who were funding these radical protesters who are going after
- 0:15Speaker 1: ICE agents. We also talked about the Somali community and
- 0:19Speaker 1: the fraud that was being committed in Minneapolis and Minnesota
- 0:23Speaker 1: in general, and why they are so hell bent on
- 0:26Speaker 1: stopping ICE agents from stopping the fraud and those that
- 0:30Speaker 1: are there illegally is because there's billions of dollars connected
- 0:33Speaker 1: to it. This is all part of the left's plan
- 0:38Speaker 1: chaos and anarchy. It's no different than we saw that
- 0:41Speaker 1: summer of violence with Black Lives Matter protests. Who was
- 0:45Speaker 1: funding it as they were going after law enforcement agents.
- 0:49Speaker 1: We have seen ICE agents for months, from the day
- 0:53Speaker 1: Donald Trump was in essence elected to now they are
- 0:57Speaker 1: a target by the radical left. We also know the
- 1:01Speaker 1: Democrats are doubling down on their violent rhetoric, saying it's
- 1:06Speaker 1: a civil war with a federal government. That is the
- 1:08Speaker 1: words of the governor of Minnesota, the mayor in Minneapolis
- 1:13Speaker 1: saying for ICE agents to get the f out of
- 1:17Speaker 1: his city and to leave immediately, this is the Democratic
- 1:22Speaker 1: Party and who is funding this. We also know the
- 1:26Speaker 1: ICE agent involved in the Minneapolis shooting was dragged by
- 1:30Speaker 1: an illegal driver and hospitalized last year.
- 1:35Speaker 2: Another part of.
- 1:35Speaker 1: The story the media doesn't want you to know. The
- 1:38Speaker 1: agent whose name is being withheld, was dragged at least
- 1:41Speaker 1: fifty yards by the migrant driver and put in the
- 1:45Speaker 1: hospital after the officer conducted a traffic stop last June.
- 1:49Speaker 1: That according to the DHS press release last year, the
- 1:53Speaker 1: officer was injured on June the seventeenth in Bloomberg, Minnesota.
- 1:58Speaker 1: The migrant perpetrator, identify as a mex of native, reportedly
- 2:02Speaker 1: refused to exit's vehicle and drag the officer after the
- 2:05Speaker 1: agent put his arm inside the vehicle. The man has
- 2:08Speaker 1: a long rap sheet with charges including domestic assault and
- 2:11Speaker 1: sex crimes against eighteen. These are exactly the people that
- 2:15Speaker 1: ICE agents are having to go out and risk their
- 2:17Speaker 1: lives to take off the streets in this country. So
- 2:21Speaker 1: there's a large part of the story that is not
- 2:23Speaker 1: being told. Senator Cruz and I set down to talk
- 2:26Speaker 1: about a lot of this, including his conversation with the President.
- 2:29Speaker 1: I want you to take a listen to what he
- 2:31Speaker 1: had to say, all right, Sena, I want to get
- 2:33Speaker 1: into Minnesota. And what happened in Minnesota. There is a
- 2:38Speaker 1: rallying cry because of a woman who tried to run
- 2:40Speaker 1: over an ICE agent that she is somehow a victim,
- 2:44Speaker 1: and the left is wanting to have a civil war
- 2:46Speaker 1: over this. You have the mayor there telling ICE agents
- 2:49Speaker 1: to literally get the f out. You have civil war
- 2:52Speaker 1: the words being used by the governor. They're seizing on
- 2:55Speaker 1: this like it's an opportunity to derail ICE in law enforcement.
- 3:00Speaker 1: It is truly sick and shocking to witness what we're
- 3:02Speaker 1: watching right now.
- 3:04Speaker 3: You're right, and and and what we're witnessing in Minnesota
- 3:07Speaker 3: is is the natural culmination of several years of just
- 3:11Speaker 3: increasingly heightened rhetoric from Democrats UH demonizing ICE agents, demonizing
- 3:18Speaker 3: border patrol, demonizing law enforcement, just attacking them. We have
- 3:22Speaker 3: Democrats who call ICE agents Nazis, they call them Gestapo
- 3:27Speaker 3: and and and listen, listen. As you know, I was
- 3:29Speaker 3: on the ground in Dallas, UH with within minutes of
- 3:34Speaker 3: of of when the Durrain shooter in Dallas opened open
- 3:38Speaker 3: fire at ICE ICE agents there because he had listened
- 3:43Speaker 3: to all of the less horrible anti ice rhetoric. We're
- 3:47Speaker 3: seeing that pattern. We're seeing acts of violence over and
- 3:51Speaker 3: over and over again. And and listen what happened in Minneapolis.
- 3:54Speaker 3: Anytime someone dies in an interaction with law enforcement, it's
- 3:58Speaker 3: it's tragic.
- 4:00Speaker 4: We don't want to see anybody die. Uh.
- 4:02Speaker 3: But but I will say, look that this woman had
- 4:05Speaker 3: a very easy way to avoid fatal consequences, which is
- 4:10Speaker 3: when law enforcement detains you, you follow the instructions of
- 4:15Speaker 3: law enforcement. If you're pulled over at at the side
- 4:18Speaker 3: of a road and law enforcement pulls you over, you
- 4:20Speaker 3: follow their instructions and you don't drive your vehicle, in
- 4:24Speaker 3: this case, a big SUV right at law enforcement because
- 4:28Speaker 3: that look that potentially can be fatal. And I have
- 4:32Speaker 3: to say it, it's systematically true that that that that
- 4:35Speaker 3: if someone attacks law enforcement. You see instances where sometimes
- 4:39Speaker 3: someone is pulled over and and they reach for and
- 4:42Speaker 3: try to grab a police officer's taser or his weapon,
- 4:45Speaker 3: and and an awful lot of those instances end up
- 4:48Speaker 3: with with with a fatality because if if you, if
- 4:52Speaker 3: you preson it present what could be a deadly threat
- 4:55Speaker 3: to a law enforcement officer. In many, many instances, that's
- 4:59Speaker 3: going to be the thing you do. And and unfortunately
- 5:02Speaker 3: this woman, I'm sure if she could go back in time,
- 5:06Speaker 3: she would have changed her behavior, but the decision she
- 5:10Speaker 3: made and that split second cost her life. And now
- 5:14Speaker 3: we're seeing Democrats deliberately stoking the fire and just just
- 5:18Speaker 3: pouring gasoline on the divisions and anger, and it's incredibly
- 5:24Speaker 3: cynical and incredibly harmful what they're doing.
- 5:26Speaker 1: It's so sad to see them look at this almost
- 5:29Speaker 1: like an opportunity to score political points. It was like, yes,
- 5:31Speaker 1: we've got someone that's passed away. We can now seize
- 5:34Speaker 1: on this, make our political statements. It is a tragedy,
- 5:38Speaker 1: as you said earlier, that this woman died. I hate
- 5:41Speaker 1: that this woman died, but you gave this law enforcement
- 5:44Speaker 1: individual no other choice when you have a car coming
- 5:48Speaker 1: right at you. And thank goodness, by the way, if
- 5:49Speaker 1: you watch the video, there was some ice on the
- 5:52Speaker 1: street there. It's winter, and the and the and the
- 5:55Speaker 1: tires spun a little bit. If there wouldn't have been
- 5:57Speaker 1: the ice there, there's a very good chance he'd be
- 5:59Speaker 1: dead right now. It gave him the moment to be
- 6:02Speaker 1: able to defend himself that he may not have had otherwise.
- 6:04Speaker 1: And I think that's the part about this that I
- 6:06Speaker 1: look at it and I'm like, no one wins in
- 6:08Speaker 1: this situation. But you don't get to go out there
- 6:11Speaker 1: when you don't like law enforcement and just decide I
- 6:14Speaker 1: don't have to listen to them, or I can run
- 6:16Speaker 1: them over. And they said Christy Homes said it yesterday.
- 6:20Speaker 2: More than a.
- 6:20Speaker 1: Hundred incidents is of people using their cars to go
- 6:23Speaker 1: at ICE agents in the last thirty days. This is
- 6:26Speaker 1: happening all over the country because the left is organized
- 6:30Speaker 1: for this exact reason.
- 6:32Speaker 3: Yeah, and look, anytime there's an officer involves shooting, there
- 6:35Speaker 3: will be an investigation. That standard procedure, so they'll go
- 6:38Speaker 3: and examine the facts after the facts and then that's
- 6:41Speaker 3: the way law enforcement operates anytime you've got a particularly
- 6:44Speaker 3: a shooting involving a fatality. But it is it is
- 6:49Speaker 3: amazing that this particular ICE agent, Christine Home, THEDHS secretary said,
- 6:54Speaker 3: had previously in recent months been hit by a car
- 6:59Speaker 3: previously and dragged behind a car. So this is the
- 7:02Speaker 3: second time this very same agent faced this threat. And
- 7:06Speaker 3: and and and that's what we are seeing the extreme left,
- 7:13Speaker 3: uh that that are threatening ICE.
- 7:16Speaker 4: They that they are.
- 7:17Speaker 3: They are, in extreme cases shooting at ICE agents and
- 7:22Speaker 3: and using their cars as weapons, and and and I
- 7:26Speaker 3: just wish you would see even a couple of Democrats, Yeah,
- 7:32Speaker 3: demonstrate some restraint, demonstrate some prudence, and not just all right,
- 7:39Speaker 3: the the the the mayor of of Minneapolis, Yeah, left
- 7:46Speaker 3: wing radical. Here was his calm, sober reflections on on
- 7:52Speaker 3: where to go from here.
- 7:53Speaker 5: Give a listen, and I have a message for Ice two. Ice,
- 8:00Speaker 5: get out of Minneapolis. We do not want you here.
- 8:06Speaker 5: Your stated reason for being in this city is to
- 8:08Speaker 5: create some kind of safety, and you are doing exactly
- 8:12Speaker 5: the opposite. People are being hurt, Families are being ripped apart.
- 8:18Speaker 5: Long term Minneapolis residents that have contributed so greatly to
- 8:22Speaker 5: our city, to our culture, to our economy are being terrorized.
- 8:26Speaker 5: And now somebody is dead. That's on you, and it's
- 8:32Speaker 5: also on you to leave. It's on you to make
- 8:36Speaker 5: sure that further damage, further loss of life and injury,
- 8:41Speaker 5: is not done.
- 8:43Speaker 1: I never thought i'd see a day where I would
- 8:45Speaker 1: witness a mayor be so political after something like this happens.
- 8:51Speaker 1: To tell law enforcement who were just sitting to do
- 8:54Speaker 1: their job to enforce the laws of the land to
- 8:56Speaker 1: get the f out and then say it's their fault.
- 9:00Speaker 3: What a repulsive partisans swine like I that is I'm
- 9:07Speaker 3: physically sick listening to and watching.
- 9:11Speaker 4: Jacob fry.
- 9:12Speaker 3: Well. You know, we talked about before how he you know,
- 9:15Speaker 3: dances with glee waving the Somali flag and the massive
- 9:20Speaker 3: fraud that has happened he has presided over and profited from.
- 9:24Speaker 3: And here he is. You know what, this woman, a
- 9:28Speaker 3: thirty seven year old woman, she's the mother of three. Look,
- 9:32Speaker 3: she was there in part because of rhetoric like that,
- 9:37Speaker 3: because of rhetoric attacking ice and and and by the way,
- 9:40Speaker 3: this woman she was married to another woman, apparently her
- 9:44Speaker 3: her wife was there videoing the entire incident. That that
- 9:49Speaker 3: is a level of radicalization, and it is radicalization the
- 9:53Speaker 3: Democrats have caused, they want and they're deliberately inflaming that
- 9:59Speaker 3: passion center.
- 10:01Speaker 1: Let's go back to just the rhetoric that is coming
- 10:03Speaker 1: out of the left, and we're going to talk about
- 10:05Speaker 1: the governor Walts in a moment. But there's been also,
- 10:07Speaker 1: I think a very back law enforcement mentality that's been
- 10:11Speaker 1: clear across the entire Trump administration. Yeah, I'm glad that's
- 10:15Speaker 1: their line and they're not backing down from Ice doing
- 10:17Speaker 1: their job.
- 10:18Speaker 4: Look, that is absolutely right.
- 10:20Speaker 3: President Trump has the back of ICE, has the back
- 10:23Speaker 3: of border patrol agents and law enforcement. You know, I
- 10:27Speaker 3: view my job as having the back of law enforcement.
- 10:29Speaker 4: I'll tell you.
- 10:30Speaker 3: As I travel the country, I see whether it's border
- 10:32Speaker 3: patrol agents or ICE agents, or sheriffs or local local police,
- 10:36Speaker 3: and I tell them all the time, I just say
- 10:37Speaker 3: thank you, and it's my job to have your back.
- 10:40Speaker 3: And that's That's a big part of why President Trump
- 10:43Speaker 3: was re elected in twenty twenty four is law enforcement.
- 10:47Speaker 3: We're tired of having elected politicians who threw them under
- 10:51Speaker 3: the bus.
- 10:51Speaker 4: At any excuse.
- 10:52Speaker 3: And a lot of people across the country were tired
- 10:56Speaker 3: of politicians who were letting violent criminals into this country
- 10:59Speaker 3: and not standing with lawaw enforcement. This week, Jade Vance,
- 11:03Speaker 3: the Vice President, did a press conference at the White House.
- 11:05Speaker 3: He did a very good job with it. Here's what
- 11:07Speaker 3: he had to say about the shooting that happened in Minneapolis.
- 11:11Speaker 6: Thank you for taking questions today. Is there a risk
- 11:14Speaker 6: with you describing her as a deranged left as talking
- 11:17Speaker 6: about very specific facts of these events when an investigation
- 11:21Speaker 6: is just beginning. Are you preempting a thorough investigation by
- 11:26Speaker 6: drawing such conclusions? And have you received any information beyond
- 11:30Speaker 6: the videos we've seen publicly about this individual per specific
- 11:34Speaker 6: acts that has informed your point of view.
- 11:37Speaker 7: Well, first of all, the Department of Justice is going
- 11:39Speaker 7: to investigate this. The Department of Homeland Security is already
- 11:43Speaker 7: investigating this. But the simple fact is what you see
- 11:46Speaker 7: is what you get. In this case, you have a
- 11:47Speaker 7: woman who is trying to obstruct a legitimate law enforcement operation.
- 11:51Speaker 7: Nobody debates that you have a woman who aimed her
- 11:54Speaker 7: car at a law enforcement officer and pressed on the accelerator.
- 11:58Speaker 7: Nobody debates that. I can believe that her death is
- 12:00Speaker 7: a tragedy while also recognizing that it's a tragedy of
- 12:03Speaker 7: her own making and a tragedy of the far left
- 12:06Speaker 7: who has marshaled an entire movement, a lunatic fringe against
- 12:11Speaker 7: our law enforcement officers. I think what is clearly happening here,
- 12:14Speaker 7: and it's going to keep on happening unless the Democrats
- 12:17Speaker 7: wake up and say, you know what, you don't have
- 12:19Speaker 7: to agree with our immigration policies. You don't have to
- 12:21Speaker 7: agree with what the president or the Vice President believe
- 12:23Speaker 7: about immigration enforcement. But why don't you take this to
- 12:26Speaker 7: the ballot box, Why don't you vote? Why don't you
- 12:28Speaker 7: organize instead? What some of them are doing, what some
- 12:32Speaker 7: of them are doing is encouraging people to get violent
- 12:35Speaker 7: with our law enforcement officials. It's disgraceful and it's got
- 12:38Speaker 7: to stop.
- 12:40Speaker 2: It's sad that you have to have that type of clarity.
- 12:42Speaker 2: But he's absolutely righting what he's saying.
- 12:43Speaker 1: If you don't like something, you can vote and change,
- 12:45Speaker 1: but you don't just get to make up the rules
- 12:47Speaker 1: and target people you disagree with.
- 12:50Speaker 3: Well and more and more, the left is condoning violence,
- 12:53Speaker 3: violence on a partisan basis. And let me be clear,
- 12:55Speaker 3: violence is always always wrong. Whether I agree with your
- 12:59Speaker 3: pology or disagree with your politics, nobody has a right
- 13:03Speaker 3: to engage in violence. And and we're seeing on the left,
- 13:07Speaker 3: more and more, we've seen the pole numbers of growing
- 13:10Speaker 3: numbers of people on the left think violence is justified.
- 13:12Speaker 3: Think violence is justified against Donald Trump, Think violence is
- 13:16Speaker 3: justified against Elon Musk and and think violence is justified
- 13:19Speaker 3: against Ice.
- 13:20Speaker 4: And it's it's.
- 13:20Speaker 3: Fundamentally wrong, and and and and the Democrats are deliberately
- 13:24Speaker 3: pushing this and and and listen, I will say for
- 13:27Speaker 3: this woman, she had complete control to avoid this happening.
- 13:32Speaker 4: Yeah, and and and and.
- 13:33Speaker 3: Any time you interact with law enforcement, I believe you
- 13:36Speaker 3: should interact respectfully and understand.
- 13:39Speaker 4: Look.
- 13:39Speaker 3: Look, if if a police officer pulls you over on
- 13:42Speaker 3: the road, that officer every day it is potentially a
- 13:46Speaker 3: deadly encounter for that officer. And every year you have
- 13:48Speaker 3: officers who are shot and killed on the side of
- 13:52Speaker 3: the road by by some lunatic who's packing. They don't
- 13:55Speaker 3: know when when they're coming up, coming up to the
- 13:57Speaker 3: driver's side. That's that in most instances, they have no
- 14:00Speaker 3: idea who they're going to encounter.
- 14:02Speaker 4: I'll tell you you know again, you and I are parents.
- 14:05Speaker 3: What when your kids start driving with my kids, what
- 14:09Speaker 3: I tell them is if you get pulled over, pull over,
- 14:12Speaker 3: put the car in park, and put your hands on
- 14:15Speaker 3: ten and two on the steering wheel, on the steering
- 14:18Speaker 3: wheel visible because the officer coming up doesn't know if
- 14:23Speaker 3: you have a firearm, doesn't know if you're a deadly threat.
- 14:25Speaker 3: And by the way, the officer sees your hands at
- 14:27Speaker 3: ten and two and realize you're showing the hands for
- 14:30Speaker 3: a reason the officer comes and says, let me see
- 14:32Speaker 3: your you know, license and registration. It's a good idea
- 14:35Speaker 3: to tell the officer, Okay, my license is in my wallet,
- 14:38Speaker 3: can I get it so the officer doesn't think you're
- 14:41Speaker 3: reaching for a gun beneath the seat or something. Look,
- 14:44Speaker 3: all of that is is prudent. It's the advice that
- 14:47Speaker 3: I give my kids. It's the advice that every responsible
- 14:51Speaker 3: parent I know gives their child that that that don't
- 14:55Speaker 3: put yourself in a position where law enforcement has re
- 15:00Speaker 3: to be afraid, even if you're not a threat. Don't
- 15:02Speaker 3: give them reason to be afraid.
- 15:04Speaker 1: But my dad was in law enforcement. He said to
- 15:06Speaker 1: me so clearly. He said, I want to make it
- 15:07Speaker 1: clear you never argue with law enforcement. If they're wrong,
- 15:11Speaker 1: you get to go to court, but you always make
- 15:15Speaker 1: sure you do not argue and you follow the orders
- 15:18Speaker 1: given and if you've been wronged, that's why we have
- 15:21Speaker 1: a judge, that's why we have a court system. And
- 15:23Speaker 1: he was very clear, you're my son. I always want
- 15:25Speaker 1: you to be safe. You turn your domewide on, you
- 15:28Speaker 1: turn the car off, you put your hands up there.
- 15:30Speaker 2: It goes back to respect.
- 15:31Speaker 1: But the left is now saying, if you don't like
- 15:34Speaker 1: them for whatever reason, you don't have to abide by
- 15:37Speaker 1: the rules.
- 15:38Speaker 2: You don't have to respect the law.
- 15:40Speaker 1: And if you don't like a law, instead of going
- 15:43Speaker 1: and actually voting and trying to change a law, they're saying,
- 15:45Speaker 1: just be a vigilante.
- 15:47Speaker 2: And that's how we've gotten to this point.
- 15:49Speaker 3: And by the way, Ben, at lunch Thursday, several of
- 15:52Speaker 3: the senators were talking about exactly this topic, and Mike
- 15:55Speaker 3: Lee brought it up. Although what he said is you
- 15:57Speaker 3: should put your hands at nine and three instead of
- 15:59Speaker 3: t and two.
- 16:00Speaker 4: I'm like, nine and three. Who drives like that?
- 16:02Speaker 3: What are you Mario Andretti or something that's a little
- 16:05Speaker 3: bit weird to nine and three. I don't know if
- 16:06Speaker 3: that's a a Utah thing or what exactly that means. Uh,
- 16:10Speaker 3: But but I at least was talk ten and two.
- 16:13Speaker 3: But I don't know how about you. Are you a
- 16:14Speaker 3: ten and two?
- 16:15Speaker 2: I'm at ten and too.
- 16:16Speaker 1: But my dad always said, he's like if you he said,
- 16:18Speaker 1: when you get pulled over, cross your hands on the
- 16:20Speaker 1: top of the steering wheel, because it's showing that you're
- 16:22Speaker 1: not trying to grab anything. And I'm like, every time
- 16:25Speaker 1: I do it almost nine nine percent of time. One
- 16:27Speaker 1: on force always said to me, thank you. I turned
- 16:29Speaker 1: the don't wine on. I rolled on all four windows
- 16:31Speaker 1: because if they come on the left side of the right,
- 16:33Speaker 1: I don't want them not to worry about anything with me.
- 16:35Speaker 1: They've had a hard enough day and they've done this.
- 16:38Speaker 1: And like you said, they walk up to a traffic stop.
- 16:40Speaker 1: They don't know if you just robbed a bank. That's
- 16:41Speaker 1: what my dad always told me. They don't know if
- 16:43Speaker 1: you just killed your wife. They don't know, if you
- 16:45Speaker 1: just ran over someone. They don't know if you have
- 16:46Speaker 1: drugs in the car. They don't know who you are.
- 16:49Speaker 1: So make them comfortable with you. And and I wish
- 16:53Speaker 1: we lived in a society where that was like the
- 16:55Speaker 1: common denominator.
- 16:56Speaker 2: Now unfortunately it's not.
- 16:59Speaker 4: And that naturally de escalates.
- 17:01Speaker 3: When you do that, you can see law enforcement kind
- 17:04Speaker 3: of just you know, take an extra breath and okay,
- 17:08Speaker 3: this is this is not gonna be confrontational and and listen.
- 17:11Speaker 3: The reason that didn't happen is is this woman didn't
- 17:14Speaker 3: want to de escalate. This woman was there to provoke
- 17:18Speaker 3: a confrontation with law enforcement. She was there because the
- 17:21Speaker 3: rhetoric on the left was is stand up and fight
- 17:24Speaker 3: ice and and she was there to do that, and
- 17:27Speaker 3: and and and so it was the opposite of de escalation.
- 17:30Speaker 3: She was looking to escalate, and and tragically she escalated
- 17:34Speaker 3: too far. And and and she may look, we may
- 17:37Speaker 3: never know her intention. She may have just think had
- 17:40Speaker 3: thought she was fleeing.
- 17:42Speaker 4: Uh.
- 17:42Speaker 3: But but the officer, if you drive a vehicle right
- 17:45Speaker 3: at somebody, particularly an officer who's already been run over
- 17:48Speaker 3: once just a few months ago by some another leftist,
- 17:53Speaker 3: you are posing a a a real and present threat.
- 17:58Speaker 3: And and and if you pose a real and present
- 18:00Speaker 3: threat to law enforcement, that that predictably can result in
- 18:04Speaker 3: deadly force as a consequence.
- 18:06Speaker 1: By the way side, note just I was talking to
- 18:08Speaker 1: something law enforce, and they said, would you please just
- 18:10Speaker 1: remind people that we will charge you with major crimes
- 18:14Speaker 1: as a deadly weapon if you use your car to
- 18:16Speaker 1: hit somebody.
- 18:17Speaker 2: We do it every day in America. This isn't some
- 18:20Speaker 2: new rule.
- 18:21Speaker 1: You use your car as a deadly weapon, you will
- 18:24Speaker 1: go to jail for that, whether you're going after law
- 18:26Speaker 1: enforcement or an innocent person. And I think that's the
- 18:30Speaker 1: important point for people to remember. If I was in
- 18:33Speaker 1: front of that car. I could easily have been run over.
- 18:36Speaker 1: You could have anybody. That's why we have laws on
- 18:38Speaker 1: the books that say you cannot use your car as
- 18:40Speaker 1: a deadly weapon, and if you do, you will be
- 18:42Speaker 1: charged with major crimes. It's sad that we even have
- 18:46Speaker 1: to have this conversation. But the governor, by the way, Center,
- 18:50Speaker 1: he's not backing down. He's seeing a political opportunity here,
- 18:53Speaker 1: the same disgrace Governor, because of the scandal that's happened
- 18:56Speaker 1: in Minnesota, he's now out there calling like this and
- 18:59Speaker 1: as to civil war, trying to ratchet things up instead
- 19:03Speaker 1: of bringing down the temperature, which is also I think
- 19:05Speaker 1: really sick.
- 19:07Speaker 3: And by the way, you remember back in twenty twenty
- 19:10Speaker 3: two that the man in Waukeshaw, Wisconsin, who drove his
- 19:14Speaker 3: SUV into a Christmas parade and murdered multiple people did
- 19:19Speaker 3: so very deliberately, using it as a deadly weapon and
- 19:24Speaker 3: killing children, killing the elderly, and it was horrific. And
- 19:28Speaker 3: the grotesque irony is that he had previously used his
- 19:32Speaker 3: car as a deadly weapon against if I remember correctly,
- 19:35Speaker 3: his his pregnant girlfriend, and he had been charged with
- 19:40Speaker 3: it and then let out a jail on a nominal
- 19:44Speaker 3: I think it was a five hundred dollars bond because
- 19:47Speaker 3: you had one of those George Soros prosecutors who lets
- 19:50Speaker 3: people go, and they let him out of jail for
- 19:53Speaker 3: attempting to kill someone with a car as a deadly weapon,
- 19:56Speaker 3: and he went out to the Christmas Day parade and
- 19:59Speaker 3: committed mass murder.
- 20:01Speaker 4: A car can be a very deadly weapon.
- 20:04Speaker 1: Sentat I want to go back to this the rhetoric here,
- 20:06Speaker 1: and we mentioned the governor earlier. The governor Tim Waltz
- 20:10Speaker 1: is now a disgraced governor. He had to drop out
- 20:12Speaker 1: of his re election campaign because of the fraud that
- 20:16Speaker 1: is just continuing to grow in the dollar amount and
- 20:19Speaker 1: the different sectors of the government. I'm not sure there's
- 20:21Speaker 1: any sector in Minnesota that wasn't involved in fraud and
- 20:25Speaker 1: corruption at this point. We're seeing it in transportation, child care,
- 20:28Speaker 1: the list goes on and on. But the governor now
- 20:31Speaker 1: seems to think this is like a moment to seize
- 20:33Speaker 1: on and he's now going to go to war with
- 20:35Speaker 1: a federal government.
- 20:37Speaker 2: It's very odd.
- 20:39Speaker 3: Yeah, Look, the Democrat politicians in Minnesota are in crisis
- 20:43Speaker 3: right now because this Somali fraud is the worst instance
- 20:47Speaker 3: of fraud that has ever been uncovered in American history,
- 20:50Speaker 3: nine billion dollars in counting massive theft from the taxpayers.
- 20:55Speaker 3: It is so bad that Tim Waltz, I mean, remember,
- 20:57Speaker 3: like twelve minutes ago, the Democrats said he was going
- 20:59Speaker 3: to be president of the United States, and now he's
- 21:03Speaker 3: He's ended his campaign for re election even as governor,
- 21:07Speaker 3: because look, I think he's facing potentially very real criminal
- 21:11Speaker 3: liability for the fraud that unfolded under his leadership. And
- 21:15Speaker 3: and and it is and Waltz and the mayor in
- 21:19Speaker 3: Minneapolis that they're not the only ones. I think there's
- 21:21Speaker 3: an entire array of Democrats who are responsible. And one
- 21:26Speaker 3: of the reasons why they are so eager to foment riots.
- 21:32Speaker 3: I mean, look that they are rooting for a replay
- 21:35Speaker 3: of the Black Lives Matter and the Antifa riots we
- 21:39Speaker 3: saw all over the country. They want people going to
- 21:41Speaker 3: the streets, they want them looting stores, they want them
- 21:44Speaker 3: fire bombing police cars. They are rooting for violence because
- 21:48Speaker 3: they want to energize their voters and get everyone not
- 21:51Speaker 3: talking about the fraud. Here's Tim Waltz, the governor, and
- 21:54Speaker 3: here was his response, calling for all at war.
- 22:00Speaker 8: I said this yesterday. We've never been at war with
- 22:01Speaker 8: our federal government. I think in this case that the
- 22:07Speaker 8: National Guard is their main mission. They have a dual mission.
- 22:11Speaker 1: When he said that and it went viral, I'm Mike,
- 22:14Speaker 1: let me get this straight. You have a governor who
- 22:16Speaker 1: is in a crisis situation. I'm talking about the Christs
- 22:18Speaker 1: on the ground whose job is to back law enforcement,
- 22:22Speaker 1: and his job is also to ratchet down the rhetoric
- 22:25Speaker 1: so we don't have a civil war breakout.
- 22:27Speaker 2: And he's like, maybe this is an opportunity for a
- 22:29Speaker 2: civil war.
- 22:29Speaker 1: He's saying that Minnesota is at war with the United
- 22:33Speaker 1: States federal government.
- 22:34Speaker 2: That governor just said that.
- 22:36Speaker 3: Yeah, and listen, if you're an angry left wing radical,
- 22:40Speaker 3: you already hate Ice, you already hate Donald Trump. And
- 22:45Speaker 3: then you hear the elected Democrat governor say Minnesota is
- 22:50Speaker 3: at war with the federal government. That is a call
- 22:55Speaker 3: to violence. That is a call in war. People get killed,
- 23:00Speaker 3: people get injured. That is Democrats very deliberately calling to violence.
- 23:06Speaker 3: It is not we disagree over policy with the federal government.
- 23:11Speaker 3: It is we are at war. And I think a
- 23:13Speaker 3: huge part of this is a cya instinct because the
- 23:18Speaker 3: fraud is so bad, and I want you to listen.
- 23:20Speaker 3: The House representatives had a hearing on the fraud in Minnesota.
- 23:24Speaker 3: By the way, I'm going to be charing a hearing
- 23:25Speaker 3: on the same topic in just a couple of weeks,
- 23:27Speaker 3: so we'll cover that in Verdict when that happens. But
- 23:31Speaker 3: I want you to listen to Brandon gil Brandon Gill
- 23:33Speaker 3: is a good friend. He is a Congressman from Texas.
- 23:36Speaker 3: He's cross examining this, this left wing witness from Minnesota.
- 23:40Speaker 3: I want you to listen to this exchange. It's really powerful.
- 23:43Speaker 9: Thank you for being here. Ask you, does large scale
- 23:46Speaker 9: Somali immigration make Minnesota stronger or weaker? Certainly stronger, certainly stronger.
- 23:53Speaker 9: Do you know what percentage of Somali headed households in
- 23:56Speaker 9: Minnesota are on food stamps?
- 23:58Speaker 6: Now?
- 23:59Speaker 9: Fifty four percent? Do you know what that number is
- 24:01Speaker 9: for Native Minnesota headed households. Well, to be clear, a
- 24:05Speaker 9: majority of this, it's seven it's seven percent. There's a
- 24:07Speaker 9: big difference between fifty four percent and seven percent?
- 24:10Speaker 6: Is there not?
- 24:10Speaker 4: Use me?
- 24:11Speaker 10: I could I answer the question?
- 24:12Speaker 9: Let me let me move on. We've got a lot
- 24:13Speaker 9: of questions here. What percentage of Somali headed households in
- 24:16Speaker 9: Minnesota are on Medicaid?
- 24:18Speaker 10: I don't know.
- 24:19Speaker 9: It's seventy three percent. Do you know what that number
- 24:21Speaker 9: is for Minnesota native households.
- 24:24Speaker 10: Again, you're using the phrase Minnesota native households the.
- 24:27Speaker 9: Number, The number is eighteen percent. That's a quite an
- 24:31Speaker 9: astounding difference. I think we would Can I answer the question? Please,
- 24:33Speaker 9: let me ask you one more and then we can
- 24:35Speaker 9: go onto that. What percentage of Somali headed households are
- 24:37Speaker 9: on welfare in general?
- 24:39Speaker 10: I don't know.
- 24:40Speaker 9: It's eighty one percent. What about let me just ask you,
- 24:43Speaker 9: after ten years of being in the United States, what
- 24:45Speaker 9: percentage of Somali immigrant households are on continue to be
- 24:49Speaker 9: on welfare?
- 24:50Speaker 10: I don't know.
- 24:52Speaker 9: The number is seventy eight percent. So even after ten years,
- 24:55Speaker 9: seventy eight percent of Somali immigrant households continue to be unwelfare.
- 25:00Speaker 9: Do you know what that number is for native Minnesota
- 25:03Speaker 9: headed households again, non Somali immigrant immigrant headed households.
- 25:09Speaker 10: If I can just answer the question, you're using the
- 25:11Speaker 10: phrase native Minnesotans. The majority of Somali Minnesotans are as
- 25:16Speaker 10: Minnesota as any of us. They were born in the
- 25:18Speaker 10: United States. It's only eight thousand of the one hundred
- 25:21Speaker 10: and eight thousands in the.
- 25:22Speaker 9: Never Nevertheless, the welfare usage is astoundingly different. Let me
- 25:26Speaker 9: ask you again, does that make Minnesota stronger or weaker?
- 25:30Speaker 10: Again? I'd like the opportunity to answer the question here.
- 25:33Speaker 10: So again, the majority of Somali Minnesotans are born in
- 25:37Speaker 10: the United States, as I understand.
- 25:38Speaker 4: Okay, well, what.
- 25:40Speaker 9: Percentage of working age Somalians who have been in the
- 25:43Speaker 9: US for ten years or more? Ten years or more,
- 25:46Speaker 9: how many of them speak English very well? I don't
- 25:49Speaker 9: know about half. The answer is about half. That seems
- 25:53Speaker 9: pretty low, doesn't it.
- 25:55Speaker 2: I love just the facts there.
- 25:56Speaker 1: Center like the way that he handled that series Why
- 26:00Speaker 1: You're Good Friends, when it's the reason why we played it,
- 26:02Speaker 1: because he's just laying out the reality of the situation
- 26:06Speaker 1: on the ground and how we got to a point
- 26:08Speaker 1: where virtually every government program in Minnesota has been compromised
- 26:11Speaker 1: by the Somali community in this way where they could
- 26:13Speaker 1: grab money and create fraud with it.
- 26:17Speaker 3: But by the way Brandon got elected, he had a
- 26:19Speaker 3: he had a rough primary, He had a bunch of
- 26:21Speaker 3: primary opponents. He had millions of dollars spent against him.
- 26:23Speaker 3: Brandon is a conservative. Actually, his father in law is
- 26:26Speaker 3: Danesh Desuzo, who's a good friend. And and and and
- 26:30Speaker 3: I endorsed Brandon early, went and campaigned with him, and
- 26:33Speaker 3: he overcame a ton of money coming against him. And
- 26:37Speaker 3: and part of what I told the voters of Texas
- 26:39Speaker 3: is listen, if if y'all elect Brandon, he's going to
- 26:41Speaker 3: go and fight for you and make you proud.
- 26:42Speaker 4: He's doing that. You know. I want to make a
- 26:45Speaker 4: point about the.
- 26:46Speaker 3: Back and forth because that that that Weasley, Minnesota lefty witness.
- 26:51Speaker 3: He kept saying, well, the majority of Somalians are are
- 26:54Speaker 3: are born in America. Now now noted, note what Brandon
- 26:58Speaker 3: Gill was asking Somali immigrants headed households, and the guy says, well,
- 27:02Speaker 3: they have a bunch anchor babies. In other words, we
- 27:04Speaker 3: bring over Somali immigrants. Yeah, they have tons of babies here.
- 27:08Speaker 3: And because of birthright citizenship, which is a really foolish policy.
- 27:12Speaker 3: And my hope is that the Supreme Court will side
- 27:15Speaker 3: with President Trump and ending it. But the Somali immigrants
- 27:20Speaker 3: come here, they have a lot of babies here. That
- 27:23Speaker 3: guy's focusing on the babies, and Brandon saying, all right,
- 27:26Speaker 3: how about the person who heads the household and the
- 27:28Speaker 3: person who heads the household. Are these Somali immigrants and
- 27:31Speaker 3: you've got eighty one percent of them on welfare. And
- 27:36Speaker 3: I tell you the staff that was really powerful was
- 27:38Speaker 3: ten years later they've been here ten years, it's seventy
- 27:41Speaker 3: eight percent still on welfare. This is a scam. The
- 27:45Speaker 3: Democrats did it deliberately, and they did it to buy votes.
- 27:48Speaker 3: They were importing votes to vote for Democrats. They allowed
- 27:52Speaker 3: them to commit fraud to steal nine billion dollars and
- 27:55Speaker 3: then to bundle those votes for the Democrats to bundle
- 27:58Speaker 3: cash for the Democrats. And the Democrats covered it up.
- 28:01Speaker 3: And it's why Tim Waltzon, Jacob Fray and so many
- 28:03Speaker 3: other Democrats are trying to enrage the left about this
- 28:08Speaker 3: shooting with ice because they want to cover up from
- 28:11Speaker 3: the incredible theft and fraud they're responsible for.
