Another ICE Shooting Leads To Death - You Can't Explain This One Away · World Ablaze with George Fontes

0:00
Welcome to another world plays.
0:06
This is episode 110, 110, getting closer to 200.
0:13
This, this episode is recorded January 24th, 2026.
0:19
I had a completely different episode in mind.
0:21
I was going to discuss what happened in Davos.
0:24
I was going to lean harder into the geopolitics, what's happening around the world and how it
0:28
involves the USA, but instead that was derailed by the events that unfolded earlier this morning
0:35
in Minneapolis.
0:38
Another person has been killed.
0:43
Another person died in another incident involving ICE.
0:48
And this episode, I'm going to just be upfront with everybody.
0:53
I don't know how long it's going to go, but I'm going to focus on what's going on here.
0:58
And if you're MAGA, for those who have listened to me from the beginning, you know that I'm not left whatsoever.
1:04
I am not of the left.
1:05
I am not a Democrat.
1:07
But you should also have figured out that I'm not hard or far right.
1:13
Now, the objective of this show has always been to expose the truth based on the facts and data that have always been available at the time.
1:22
And this episode is going to be one of those episodes where I'm going to be quite honest.
1:27
Again, if you're Maggie, you're not going to agree with everything I have to say.
1:30
I'm not going to be one to toe the party line because honestly, I don't believe in the two-party system anyway.
1:38
But here we are.
1:41
We're confronted with another situation where another individual has died.
1:46
And the story that has unfolded and that has been told, it seems to be more and more of a lie.
1:57
cover-up than anything. Why? Well, because there were too many witnesses. There were too many
2:04
videos that have been released by people who were there filming the incident with their
2:08
mobile phones, cell phones, whatever you want to call them. And the result is a huge contradiction
2:15
to that of what Kristi Noem had to say of the situation. A huge contradiction to that of what
2:25
all the mega mega star influencers on X are trying to say and how they're trying to spin this.
2:33
There is no spin. The video evidence is pretty indisputable. Now, unlike the previous incident
2:43
where Renee Nicole Goode was killed, a shot, that was a slightly different situation because
2:51
the video evidence, regardless of how you feel and how you want to believe,
2:56
that video portrayed the incidents. The video was clear
2:58
that she was instructed to stop her vehicle. She kept operating it.
3:04
And instead of turning it off and getting out of her car as she
3:07
was instructed, she proceeded to turn the wheel and try to speed off through
3:11
ICE agents. And I don't care what you have to say about that.
3:15
I don't care that you think that the person could have moved out of the way, wasn't
3:19
in danger, put himself in danger.
3:21
Look, the reality is the video evidence is there in this clear regards of what you want
3:25
to believe, which you don't want your eyes to see.
3:29
And that incident was very clear that that was Renee Nicole Good's fault.
3:36
Whether you want to agree with me or not doesn't matter because the truth doesn't have to agree
3:41
with you.
3:42
But this incident today is not something that can be explained in the favor of the ICE agents.
3:55
This is not something you could spin to be in favor of the mega mega influencers who are trying to use this incident as a way to drum up support for whatever their agenda is these days.
4:09
the video evidence
4:12
shows something very different
4:14
a man
4:16
and it doesn't matter
4:19
why he was there
4:20
he was filming what was going on
4:23
and yes he had a weapon
4:26
or a gun on him
4:27
but I think as far as I know
4:31
now there's
4:31
I just want to make it clear
4:33
even though I'm recording this
4:34
and we're talking about this
4:36
the story is still developing
4:38
and I'm sure there's going to be new evidence that comes out about this story later in the week
4:44
but thus far we're not we're not sure it's not going to be very clear to me that there's much
4:51
more that's going to come out to dispute what is in the video but getting back to the person who was
4:59
killed, had a gun, but it was on his person. And from what I understand, the person had a conceal
5:09
and carry permit, which I'm going to be very clear. I support two-way rights. He had every
5:15
right to have this weapon. We can dispute whether it was a smart move to have a weapon on you
5:21
walking into a very, very contested and heated protest. There's two sides to that argument.
5:28
I get it.
5:29
One, shouldn't have it there because by having it there, it could just lead to trouble, which is what happened.
5:36
The intentions could be misconstrued because this person may never have had an intention to fight with ICE, to fire a weapon at ICE, which he never did.
5:49
The videos do not show or support that he ever did.
5:53
And we're going to get to that.
5:54
and then the other argument is you know hey it's your two-way right to defend yourself and if you're
6:02
going to go into a heavily contested heated area you may want to have a bit of protection on you
6:08
because you don't know and it doesn't mean that it's it's it's on your person to protect yourself
6:14
against ice or federal agents it could just hey who knows what batshit crazy person's going to run
6:19
up and do whatever. I mean, we've seen many instances lately where citizen journalists are
6:25
being attacked, are being bullied, questioned, their equipment taken from them, etc. Now, in this
6:31
case, he was using his mobile phone. And it's very important to note that the entire time this person
6:37
had his phone on him and was filming, even when he was pepper sprayed and thrown to the ground,
6:44
he had his phone in his hand. And with that being said, what could be very interesting
6:49
is if they ever released the footage that he recorded.
6:53
Because that microphone, not just the video,
6:56
but that microphone is going to pick up everything that happened
6:58
involving him personally and those ICE agents.
7:02
So what we're going to do is we're going to go over the evidence that we have.
7:10
We're going to look at the situation for what it is.
7:14
And what we're going to do, and I hope you're going to do,
7:17
is you're not going to lean hard
7:20
into whatever party you choose to support.
7:24
Because this isn't about party politics.
7:26
This is about the actions of ICE agents
7:30
that were taken,
7:32
how they handled the situation.
7:35
And of course, again,
7:37
there's an argument as to whether or not
7:39
a person there,
7:40
even though it was his right
7:42
in sealing carry,
7:43
especially if he had a permit,
7:45
maybe shouldn't have brought that
7:47
into the protests due to what may have happened.
7:52
Well, in this case, what actually did happen, he lost his life.
7:56
But regardless, let's start with Kristi Noem's statement.
8:04
Because Kristi Noem's statement highly contradicts what everybody in the world
8:09
and social media already saw.
8:12
And that's the thing about today, social media.
8:15
Anybody with a phone can quickly post what they recorded instantly.
8:19
It's too hard to cover things up.
8:22
And yes, we can curate clips.
8:25
We can cut clips up to where we can definitely play them back
8:31
to make it look like exactly what we want it to look like
8:35
in terms of the arguments we're trying to make.
8:38
But in this case, it's too hard to do.
8:43
It was too instant.
8:45
The reaction that everybody has to this situation is valid.
8:52
They're angry at ICE.
8:54
They're angry at how this was handled.
8:59
So with that being said, let's go to Christy Noem.
9:02
Let's go to what she has to say about this.
9:05
This is her statement.
9:06
This is what she says happened.
9:09
And it's important to note that they released a statement well before any investigation has been had.
9:19
And actually, as of this recording, there hasn't been an investigation.
9:24
But nonetheless, let's hear what Christine Ohm has to say.
9:27
An individual approached U.S. Border Patrol officers with a 9mm semi-automatic handgun.
9:33
The officers attempted to disarm this individual, but the armed suspect reacted violently.
9:40
Fearing for his life and for the lives of his fellow officers around him, an agent fired defensive shots.
9:46
Medics were on the scene immediately and attempted to deliver medical aid to the subject, but he was pronounced dead at the scene.
9:54
The suspect also had two magazines with ammunition in them that held dozens of rounds.
9:59
He also had no ID.
10:00
This looks like a situation where an individual arrived at the scene to inflict maximum damage on individuals and to kill law enforcement.
10:10
Well, that is a very presumptive statement loaded with assumptions.
10:17
Because she states that he approached ICE with a gun, a 9mm automatic.
10:26
And it's true, he did have a gun on him, but he did not approach ICE with a gun.
10:29
He didn't have a gun in his hand.
10:33
And the videos I'm going to play are going to show that.
10:35
In fact, here's going to be the first video.
10:40
Now, I want you to keep in mind that these are from the mobile phones there.
10:44
So it's not like there was a professional crew recording this.
10:46
So I apologize if you're not going to get the consistent views you want.
10:51
But I'm going to play multiple videos here so that you can get a good idea.
10:54
And this is where I've always told everybody, look, if you listen to the podcast, bless you.
10:59
I appreciate you for listening.
11:02
And I love that you listen.
11:03
But some of these episodes, like this episode,
11:06
give it a listen.
11:07
But I encourage you to go to YouTube,
11:10
watch the video version.
11:11
You can find me on YouTube at Fons Ablaze.
11:15
Just look for World Ablaze with George Fons and you see this And also if you do use Spotify you know that you can watch the video on Spotify as well because I do load the video there So I just telling you
11:26
I'm going to do my best to explain this, but this is one you have to watch.
11:29
It really is.
11:30
So in this video, what you're going to see is how it unfolded.
11:34
Because Kristi Noem said he approached ice with a gun, a 9mm.
11:41
And right here, you see my pointer here.
11:45
This is the person in question wearing the brown jacket, kind of like, I don't know, like the light brown slash khaki looking pants here.
11:56
Pretty much like he's just wearing work uniform pretty much.
11:59
Not necessarily uniform, but, you know, just like work pants maybe.
12:03
I don't know.
12:04
But regardless, here's his hand.
12:07
Here's his left hand.
12:08
Nothing in it.
12:09
The other hand, as I play the video, you'll see he has a cell phone in his right hand.
12:12
So here we go.
12:15
So right now he's filming.
12:20
And the person that is filming this,
12:23
she's focusing on the conversation between two ladies and one of the ICE agents.
12:26
So the individual that was shot,
12:30
he actually walks over, not to the people,
12:34
but just walks over to the side so he can get a better angle.
12:36
And he just has his phone.
12:39
His other hand is free.
12:41
And he's trying to wave cars through.
12:43
Now, here the ICE agent looks like she has,
12:47
looks like the person that they were arguing with was assaulted, pushed to the ground.
12:51
Now, this is when the individual steps in.
12:54
And as soon as he steps in, all he did was put his hands up to try to shield her.
12:57
And he's pepper sprayed.
12:59
And then this is where they start to throw him to the ground.
13:02
Now, you have multiple ICE agents on top of him.
13:08
Now, this is where they're trying to say that he drew a weapon.
13:11
But if you're watching this, this agent here, let me pause this.
13:15
Let me back it up slightly.
13:18
So this agent right here.
13:25
Okay, this guy here bent over.
13:27
He has like a gray jacket, gray hat.
13:30
If you see this person, he is standing over him while the other ICE agents are wrestling him to the ground.
13:35
and he's reaching over the deceased person's right side.
13:42
Now, at this point, he's not deceased yet,
13:44
but in this struggle, he's reaching over to his right side
13:47
while hovering over him.
13:50
There is no weapon drawn at this point that we can see.
13:55
And this same officer, what he does later is he walks away with a gun,
14:01
A gun that never appeared to be in the person's hand.
14:07
So let me continue this.
14:11
There he is.
14:12
Looks like he's struggling on the back right side to grab something.
14:16
And then right there.
14:17
So he turns around, walks away with the weapon.
14:21
And as soon as he does that, he takes a few steps.
14:24
And then all of a sudden, shots are fired.
14:28
He's fired upon by the other ICE agents.
14:31
And there were multiple shots.
14:36
So this video shows that the person in question didn't have a weapon on him.
14:46
He didn't furnish one.
14:47
He didn't pull one out.
14:48
He wasn't pointing it at an ICE agent.
14:50
From this video, it appears.
14:51
I'm going to say it appears because you're going to need a few angles to decipher what's happening here.
14:55
but it appears that one of the ICE officers,
15:00
when they had him on the ground,
15:03
they were kind of patting him down, feeling around,
15:05
and they noticed he had a holster in his back right side.
15:11
And that agent that was wearing the gray that was bending over
15:14
was trying to get the weapon out of the holster.
15:18
The weapon was holstered the whole time.
15:19
It wasn't in the hands of the person they were struggling with.
15:23
he didn't have a weapon.
15:25
In fact, the only thing he really had in his hand
15:27
was his cell phone.
15:32
So let me cue up another angle here.
15:37
So this kind of just shows the same thing,
15:40
but at a different angle.
15:42
And we're going to go ahead and play that
15:44
so that you can get another view on this.
15:46
Hey!
15:48
That is police brutality!
15:50
They are hitting that observer!
15:52
And even from this angle, you can see that they're struggling with him.
15:56
Now, there's ICE agents that have each arm and hand.
15:59
Okay, there's the shot.
16:04
They fire multiple shots.
16:06
They're trying to argue that the first shot came from his weapon,
16:09
but the problem with that is he never had his hand on the weapon.
16:12
I'm going to back this up a little bit.
16:14
The problem with that statement is you can see the man
16:19
or the agent that appears to be wearing gray,
16:22
see how I'm backing this up slowly?
16:25
He's hovering over him, as I said earlier.
16:29
He is reaching over the right backside of the person.
16:36
And as I move this forward slowly,
16:39
you can see that agent spin to his right.
16:42
And right here, he has the weapon in his hand.
16:48
So if he pulls the gun from his back right side,
16:52
and the assailant's hands are both held by other officers,
16:58
how was it was he able to draw his weapon?
17:02
At what point did he have his weapon in his hand
17:04
and he was pointing it at an ICE agent?
17:07
It wasn't when he was walking up to him.
17:11
It wasn't when he was on the ground being wrestled by ICE,
17:14
when he was pepper sprayed.
17:15
And as I'm slowly moving this forward and back,
17:18
you can see this back and forth,
17:20
that ICE agent clearly has the weapon in his hand.
17:22
and when he walks away, it looks like he's taking one, two, three steps,
17:28
and after those three steps is when shots are fired.
17:32
By who?
17:34
Wasn't fired by the person who was shot and killed.
17:39
He didn't even have a weapon on him.
17:41
The ICE agents shot him,
17:43
and a lot of people are trying to explain this away,
17:46
saying, well, you know, heat of the moment.
17:47
You don't know what really happened.
17:49
Like, I get that,
17:50
but this wasn't a heat of the moment situation.
17:53
They had him detained
17:54
or at least subdued to the best of their ability.
17:58
He was on all fours,
18:00
two agents on either side,
18:03
right and left of him had his right and left arm.
18:06
The weapon in question was still holstered
18:09
on his right backside.
18:13
The agent in the gray came hovering over him,
18:17
reached over to the right backside
18:19
to get the weapon out of his holster,
18:24
out of the assailant's holster,
18:26
the person that was actually killed in the assailant.
18:29
So that ICE agent grabs that weapon,
18:32
was able to walk away, take three steps,
18:34
and then the other ICE agents shot the assailant?
18:39
The other ICE agents killed the person?
18:43
For what?
18:44
At what point was he a threat?
18:46
Never reached for it, never had it in his person's,
18:49
Looks like he was struggling to find out where he was after being sprayed in the face,
18:56
trying to help the other lady that was pushed to the ground.
18:59
While he was on the ground and they were trying to subdue him,
19:02
one of the ICE agents was beating him with a canister.
19:07
And then the other ICE agent, the gray, was reaching over him from the backside
19:10
to take the weapon that was in his holster while his other hands,
19:14
while the assailant's hands were preoccupied.
19:17
The only thing he was holding in one hand
19:18
the whole time was his cell phone
19:20
that he wouldn't let go.
19:22
So how are these MAGA influencers
19:25
trying to explain this one
19:27
to support the actions?
19:31
I am not understanding it.
19:33
And I'm going to say this isn't a win
19:34
for you lefties out there
19:36
because incidents like this are a win for nobody.
19:39
Someone died.
19:41
Can we argue that this person made a poor decision
19:43
to bring a weapon to, again,
19:45
a highly contested area
19:47
where it's been known
19:49
currently to be violent interactions
19:53
when it comes to ICE
19:54
and these ICE protests.
19:56
Yeah, that was a dumb decision.
19:58
It really is.
20:00
And these ICE agents
20:01
are already on edge
20:03
from being, you know,
20:04
attacked, bullied.
20:07
I mean, you name it.
20:08
You know, they're definitely
20:10
going through it.
20:11
But that's still no excuse
20:12
for multiple agents
20:13
who,
20:15
to shoot a man dead when he doesn't pose a threat.
20:20
Even when he was on all fours, he didn't have a weapon on him.
20:23
Not in his hands.
20:24
He wasn't using it.
20:25
He wasn't reaching for it.
20:27
They're trying to claim he did.
20:29
And then how do the videos that I just played thus far,
20:32
thus far, how do they support Kristi Noem's claim
20:36
of him approaching ice with a nine millimeter,
20:41
pointing it at ice?
20:42
he didn't approach him with anything but a freaking
20:45
cell phone
20:46
filming what was happening
20:48
the only way he got involved was trying
20:51
to help the lady who was pushed to the ground
20:53
by an ICE officer or an ICE agent
20:55
when he tried to help her
20:57
up
20:58
they pepper sprayed him in the face
21:00
so
21:03
at what point
21:04
are we supposed to believe
21:07
Christy Nome
21:08
at what point
21:12
the video out here doesn't support it
21:17
and as much as I say
21:20
and I am
21:21
I'm behind
21:22
I'm behind what ICE is doing
21:25
I'm behind what Border Patrol is doing
21:27
you know I believe that
21:29
what they're doing is
21:31
what needs to happen
21:33
to support our laws
21:35
our sovereignty
21:36
I get it
21:38
but right now, right now, the way things are going,
21:45
and especially after this incident that just happened today, January 24th, 2026,
21:51
after this happened, how are we supposed to continue
21:59
to argue in support of the actions when it's clear that these guys need a break,
22:06
that these guys need to cool the fuck down.
22:10
And the fact that they haven't been suspended
22:13
in lieu of investigation is insane to me.
22:18
Like that is the statement that Christy Noem should have gave.
22:21
That due to the events that are unfolding
22:25
and to the evidence that is coming out,
22:29
the ICE agents involved in the incident today
22:32
are under suspension pending further review of the incident That what she had to say That it But no instead she tried to lie and cover up and say oh well you know they approached with a nine millimeter which clearly
22:47
didn't happen. Didn't happen. I'm going to show another video. Now this is more of a closeup and
22:54
in a slowdown.
22:56
And what I want,
22:58
what I want you to see
22:59
is that
23:01
the ICE agent with the,
23:04
with the gray coat and hat
23:06
I've been talking about,
23:07
he's very clear
23:08
in this particular video.
23:10
This is where you're going to see him
23:11
without a gun in his hand,
23:13
in his right hand.
23:13
You're going to see how he
23:15
is over
23:16
the person who was killed.
23:20
Not, not struggling,
23:21
not grabbing his foot,
23:23
leg, whatever.
23:24
arm. He wasn't on the floor.
23:27
He was over him, standing
23:28
over him, reached over
23:30
with his right arm to where
23:32
that holster was to pull
23:34
the gun out, and he walks away with it.
23:37
So at no point
23:38
did this,
23:40
did the person in question who was
23:42
killed ever pull
23:44
the damn weapon.
23:47
Check this out.
23:50
So right there,
23:51
empty hand, empty hand.
23:54
Here he is walking up behind.
23:58
And this is where he straddles over behind him.
24:01
And then this hand here, see his right hand reaching down, still empty.
24:05
Reaches over to his right back side.
24:08
You can see the assailant's legs right here.
24:09
So he's reaching over his back side.
24:11
And he's struggling here, but he's trying to pull the weapon out of the holster.
24:15
You can see it right here.
24:16
There he is, still pulling, pulling.
24:18
And here's the gun in his hand right now.
24:22
There's the gun.
24:23
He's going to spin around.
24:24
You clearly see the gun.
24:26
Now he is walking away.
24:31
And now after he has the gun, he walks away.
24:35
The person is shot.
24:38
Shot dead.
24:40
Shot dead even though he doesn't have the weapon.
24:45
How about another view?
24:46
Do we need more evidence?
24:48
Sure.
24:48
Here's some more video here.
24:50
here's another close-up and this this view you can see kind of from the front side
24:57
so this you get a really clear view of the ice agent's right hand as he is pulling on the weapon
25:05
in the holster and trying to get it out of the holster and walk away with it so again another
25:11
clear shot of of where the the assailant the person who was being subdued didn't have the
25:19
weapon on him.
25:23
There it is. The right hand is right
25:25
here. He's pulling on the weapon on the back
25:27
right side of the assailant.
25:30
Or alleged assailant.
25:33
There it is. Pulling, pulling, pulling,
25:35
still pulling on it.
25:37
And he has the weapon.
25:39
So where in all of
25:41
this is
25:43
the proof
25:44
that this individual
25:47
furnished a weapon
25:49
to be used against ICE agents?
25:54
At what point in any video,
25:56
even the ones I showed in the beginning
25:58
that show the full incident,
25:59
did he walk up to an ICE agent
26:01
with a weapon?
26:05
Now,
26:06
the answer to that
26:09
is never, he didn't have a weapon.
26:13
So here's the weapon in question.
26:17
And it's a six hour.
26:19
And the thing with this weapon, this gun, is it's custom.
26:27
And it's not a typical weapon that would be bought by somebody who is a criminal.
26:33
It's about a $2,000 gun or something like that, somewhere in that ballpark.
26:37
It's not something that the average person with bad intent is going to be carrying around
26:45
because it's pricey for one.
26:49
And it's custom.
26:50
Now we can argue it was stolen.
26:52
Maybe it was hot.
26:53
Maybe he bought it in the black market.
26:54
Who knows?
26:55
But I doubt it.
26:58
It doesn't fit what's going on.
27:00
And looking at what was happening and how he was carrying himself,
27:04
it doesn't really fit the narrative.
27:09
Not the narrative that Chrissy Noem is trying to make us believe.
27:12
I'm going to pull up a video by Ryan McBeth,
27:14
previous guest of the show here.
27:16
Some of you may know who he is.
27:17
he's an analyst intel guy but he released a video um today on what he thinks about
27:27
this weapon because to him it was also very fishy it was kind of like well
27:31
this isn't something somebody would normally carry
27:34
so here's this video of ryan mcbeth giving his assessment of the gun in question and
27:44
how this may speak to the personality of the person who is carrying it and what
27:49
may be his intentions or why it doesn't fit the intent of someone who may be considered
27:55
a criminal or someone who intends to do harm. But again, we don't know what the intentions were.
28:02
All we know is he had an expensive weapon or gun on him. He was filming, holding a cell phone,
28:08
and never furnished the weapon, never pulled it out, never pointed at ice.
28:15
Here's Ryan McBeth.
28:17
There's been another Immigrations and Customs Enforcement shooting,
28:20
but this video isn't about that.
28:22
It's about the gun that was supposedly recovered from the person who was shot.
28:25
Now, the situation is still developing, so we don't exactly know what was true.
28:29
I am a huge fan of Six-Hour Pistols.
28:31
This gun is a Six-Hour P320 Custom, and you can customize these builds
28:35
to pretty much anything you want.
28:38
And these SIG P320 Customs get really expensive really quick.
28:42
This gun was threaded for a suppressor, and it also had a red dot sight.
28:46
You can basically build this gun on SIG's website, and it costs about $2,200.
28:52
And in addition to being really expensive, it's also going to be way heavier than your average concealed carry pistol.
28:57
I carry a SIG P365 every day, and it's about 1.2, 1.5 pounds.
29:03
But the SIG 320 in the incident is anywhere between 2.5 to 3 pounds.
29:07
Not impossible to conceal carry-on to your person, especially if you're wearing a heavy Minnesota winter coat, but not something I would want to carry every day.
29:15
The other interesting thing is that most guns found in the possession of criminals while committing a crime are Glock, Taurus, Smith & Wesson, and Ruger.
29:23
That's not because Sig Sauer pistols are bad, it's because those other four brands are less expensive and so more people own them, so there's more opportunities for them to be stolen and then later used in a crime.
29:33
So I think if this weapon was taken off of someone who was shot,
29:36
I think we can make some assumptions or predictions about the person who carried it.
29:39
I don't think the person who was shot was a petty criminal or even an immigrant gangster.
29:43
They would just have a cheaper or more commonly owned handgun.
29:46
It's not impossible this gun wasn't stolen.
29:48
It's just a lot less likely.
29:50
What's interesting is that Immigrations and Customs Enforcement uses the SIG P320.
29:54
And I have to say this because there's a lot of conspiracy theorists out there who say,
29:57
oh, they threw the gun on the guy afterwards.
29:59
Well, their guns wouldn't look custom like this.
30:01
It would look more like this.
30:02
I also don't think that the person who was shot is likely to be someone who was just going about their day concealed carrying a pistol doing normal things like going to the grocery store.
30:10
This just isn't the kind of gun that you take to do that.
30:13
So all that being said, I don't think the person carrying this pistol was a petty criminal.
30:17
I don't think this person was a guy who concealed carries every day.
30:20
I think this person took their home defense pistol and for whatever reason decided to approach or confront ICE agents with it.
30:28
And unfortunately, it resulted in an undesirable outcome.
30:32
So kudos to Ryan.
30:34
Good video.
30:35
Good explanation.
30:36
But as he said, look, there's no guarantee.
30:38
Sure, it could have been stolen weapon.
30:40
Could have been.
30:40
Highly unlikely.
30:41
Not the common weapon a criminal would carry.
30:44
Not the easiest weapon to buy on the black market.
30:46
Because again, more expensive.
30:47
Not as common.
30:48
And in this case, being a custom weapon that costs over $2,000.
30:53
Not many of those particular weapons around.
30:56
Especially that look exactly like that with those exact specs.
30:58
So plausible, yeah.
31:02
Likely, not really.
31:04
And with all of this being said,
31:08
nothing adds up to this person
31:10
walking into the situation
31:13
with any kind of criminal intent.
31:15
This person seemed to have apprehensions
31:19
about whether or not that this area
31:24
in which they're walking into
31:25
is a place where there could be something bad
31:30
that would happen.
31:31
So maybe he literally just had it on himself for the purpose of self-protection, for a just-in-case.
31:38
And given that he had the holster on his back, right side, where it was,
31:42
not like he could easily just reach down to the side and grab it or whatnot,
31:45
or even in the front waistband.
31:46
It was just behind him.
31:47
He would have to reach back with his arm to pull it out.
31:51
And even then, your arms kind of turned around, your hand be like this inverted,
31:56
and then you're kind of like trying to pull it out and then brandish it.
31:59
So it's not like it's necessarily a quick move.
32:03
I mean, it could be, but it isn't as quick as reaching down in front
32:07
and just pulling it straight out, and then there it is.
32:10
So I don't think the intent of this person was bad whatsoever.
32:17
Here's what's going on.
32:19
The rhetoric being pushed, and this is where I might get a little biased,
32:24
you know, hold on, right versus left.
32:26
But the messaging of the left regarding the situation is fanning the flames and fueling the fire.
32:35
There are videos of influencers out there and Antifa members telling these protesters,
32:41
it's time to take up arms.
32:42
It's time to protect yourself against the federal government.
32:47
You need to arm yourselves.
32:49
It's time to take up arms.
32:50
And if you don't believe me, just do your own searching online.
32:54
Go to any social media site and start looking for this.
32:57
You're going to find it.
32:58
It is there.
32:59
They are there.
33:01
And then you had Governor Tim Walz of Minnesota recently making a statement where he's pretty much threatening the federal government, the Trump administration, by saying, we will use the National Guard.
33:15
National Guard are Minnesotans, and they will protect Minnesota.
33:20
he's also instructed
33:23
law enforcement not to help ICE
33:26
when you have
33:29
political leaders of the left
33:32
saying that we will fight the federal
33:36
government with our own national guard
33:37
when you have leaders
33:40
of the left
33:40
making statements about having to
33:44
protect yourself when you have
33:46
political influencers saying
33:48
take up arms against
33:50
ICE? And for what?
33:52
To protect what?
33:54
The deportation of illegal,
33:56
again distinction here illegal immigrants Look under Obama
34:07
nobody cared.
34:09
Nobody cared.
34:10
He was praised for everything he did.
34:13
A lot of people didn't realize
34:14
that Tom Holman,
34:15
the guy in charge right now,
34:17
Tom Holman,
34:18
worked for the Obama administration
34:22
and was awarded
34:25
by Obama
34:27
for
34:29
deportations.
34:32
He was awarded.
34:33
He was given an award for his
34:35
work for the number of deportations
34:37
by
34:39
Obama.
34:41
And Obama was
34:43
labeled the deporter-in-chief
34:45
because in his first
34:47
year, first two years,
34:49
he deported more
34:51
people than any other president within that
34:53
short timeframe.
34:56
So Obama was praised.
34:59
Holman was awarded.
35:01
And then the whole kids in cages incident that everybody was up in arms about
35:04
and was trying to blame Trump for in his first term was literally,
35:08
literally squarely on the shoulders of Obama.
35:12
In fact,
35:13
and I've already talked about this in previous episodes,
35:16
the ACLU wanted to sue Obama for the kids in cages incident.
35:23
And if we go back further to Clinton, during Clinton's administration, he deported more
35:32
than Obama and to date, Trump.
35:37
See, people forget about the Bill Clinton era.
35:39
He deported 12.3 million and still nobody had a problem.
35:48
Nobody.
35:48
You had Hillary Clinton giving speeches about how we need to deport illegal immigrants and protect this country and close the borders and all of that jazz, right?
36:01
Many people of the left in the Clinton administration were hardcore, hardcore about it.
36:09
Even Chuck Schumer, he had a video where even he called for people to stop calling them undocumented and call them illegal immigrants.
36:18
Aliens. He literally said that. Chuck Schumer. But today, because it's Trump,
36:27
Trump's administration trying to enforce the law, it's Nazi. It's fascism. It's bad.
36:34
Take up arms and fight the government. To protect what? People who literally broke the law by
36:40
coming here? And then you can make the argument about, well, what if their visa ran out? They
36:44
were here already legally, but while they're here, the visa ran out. You know when your visa
36:48
is going to fucking expire, plan accordingly.
36:52
You could apply for extensions.
36:53
There's things you can do.
36:56
But when your visa is up, it's up.
36:58
The government can enforce the law and say,
37:00
hey, you no longer can be here.
37:03
And they will tell you it's time to go.
37:05
They don't necessarily go after you right away.
37:09
You know.
37:10
You know.
37:11
And they let you know.
37:14
So you can take that argument,
37:16
roll it up, and just throw it right out the window.
37:18
because no one's buying that.
37:20
The opposition to what's happening
37:22
to the enforcement of federal law
37:24
is squarely on the left
37:26
because they hate Trump that much.
37:30
And sure, there's a lot about Trump to hate.
37:33
There's a lot about Trump that you don't have to like.
37:37
But in this situation,
37:39
trying to enforce the law,
37:41
he is not wrong.
37:43
He's actually in the right.
37:45
He's protecting the sovereignty
37:47
and security of this nation.
37:50
And leftist leaders trying to stir the pot here,
37:55
trying to rile up the opposition in their favor
37:59
with political influencers of the left and Antifa members,
38:05
and you name it, everybody coming out and saying,
38:06
take up arms, take up arms, fight the right, fight the right.
38:11
The ICE are nothing but the Gestapo, modern-day Gestapo.
38:15
They are Nazis.
38:16
There's no difference.
38:18
This rhetoric, this talk, it's what's making this situation worse and worse as every day goes by.
38:28
Two deaths within a short amount of time.
38:33
A mother killed.
38:35
And this person, I believe, you can fact check me on this.
38:38
I believe he was a nurse or a nursing student.
38:40
I don't really recall.
38:42
Because again, this story is still developing.
38:46
but from what I saw on social media,
38:48
he wasn't necessarily a person with,
38:50
he wasn't a criminal.
38:51
He had no record.
38:52
He was a professional,
38:54
you know,
38:54
a person I believe that worked in medical.
38:58
And
38:58
he died for no reason.
39:03
Renee Nicole Good
39:04
should never have died.
39:06
But in that situation,
39:07
she should have also complied.
39:09
It was not
39:10
the correct decision
39:11
to drive your vehicle away
39:13
and into ICE officers.
39:14
I'm sorry, but
39:16
The response there was justified
39:18
because your vehicle is a weapon at that point.
39:20
But it was tragic.
39:23
And I got to be honest,
39:24
it was poor decisions on both sides in there,
39:27
in that situation.
39:30
What happened today,
39:31
what happened today was clear
39:37
that ICE agents themselves reacted poorly.
39:42
They're the ones who made the bad decision.
39:44
they stripped this person of the weapon he had
39:47
that was being carried in his holster
39:50
that was never touched, never drawn,
39:53
never pointed at ice.
39:55
It was taken away from him.
39:57
The agent that took it walked away,
39:58
took three whole steps.
40:01
Three whole steps.
40:02
And then that person who was being subdued
40:07
was fired upon.
40:11
Regardless of your argument,
40:12
you can argue he shouldn't have brought a weapon
40:14
into a protest.
40:15
He shouldn't have had it on him.
40:16
While bringing a weapon
40:17
and confronting ICE is a threat.
40:19
He didn't confront ICE.
40:20
He was filming.
40:22
And then he went to go help the woman
40:23
who was pushed on the ground.
40:25
I can't argue for your side.
40:29
I'm sorry, MAGA.
40:30
I'm not going to spin this.
40:32
We're going to tell the truth.
40:35
These ICE officers
40:36
should have immediately
40:38
been taken off duty,
40:41
suspended indefinitely,
40:42
pending investigation, period.
40:45
That should have been the announcement.
40:48
That should have been the announcement.
40:50
This whole thing is not helping the Trump administration.
40:54
And to that point, I'm going to tell you this.
40:57
Everybody who wants to blame Trump,
40:59
look, Trump isn't physically there in these ICE raids.
41:03
He's not the one physically involved.
41:06
He's not the one physically arresting people
41:08
and physically shooting people.
41:09
Sure.
41:10
we can say he's responsible
41:12
or his administration is responsible because
41:13
ultimately I guess shit rolls uphill
41:16
but not really. Who is really in charge?
41:18
We got Tom Holman.
41:20
We've got Christy Noem.
41:23
Christy Noem
41:24
if anything should be held
41:26
responsible and for Christy Noem to make
41:28
that statement today
41:29
which is blatantly lying.
41:31
It is blatantly lying. I'm sorry
41:33
I can't support what you said Christy.
41:35
Everybody can see clear as
41:37
day that ICE made a
41:40
bad decision. They
41:41
murdered this guy. I'm just going to say it.
41:45
There was multiple
41:46
shots. It wasn't one shot
41:48
and then you could explain, oh, it was accidental
41:50
in the heat of the moment. No.
41:52
It was multiple shots.
41:54
I believe people are saying it was
41:56
eight shots, eight gunshots
41:57
to a person who was on all fours
42:00
on the ground, who was pepper sprayed in the
42:02
face, who didn't have a weapon.
42:04
Bad look.
42:06
This is not good for America.
42:08
This is further evidence that, to be quite honest,
42:13
while Trump is grandstanding at Davos,
42:16
giving these speeches, accusing other countries
42:18
of whatever it is that they should or should not be doing,
42:22
it's time for Trump to come home and focus on this situation.
42:26
He needs to get his administration in line.
42:29
He needs to get his administration in line.
42:32
He needs to get down to the bottom of this shit.
42:34
And he needs to make a statement.
42:36
He needs to address the issue himself directly and admit, hey, this situation was bad.
42:44
This is not how things are handled.
42:46
We're looking into it.
42:48
These agents that are involved are suspended.
42:52
Again, as I said, pending investigation.
42:54
That is the proper response.
42:56
That's what America needs.
42:58
That would show real leadership.
43:02
Sorry, Trump.
43:03
Sorry for all you MAGA people, but I'm not supporting this.
43:08
I'm not spinning it.
43:09
This is it.
43:09
This is truth.
43:10
You don't believe me?
43:11
Watch the videos.
43:12
There are hundreds of them out there now.
43:13
Hundreds.
43:14
Everybody has been posting and reposting this.
43:17
There's no way you can look at this situation and argue that it was the fault of the individual
43:24
who was killed.
43:26
Period.
43:27
If that hurts your feelings, too fucking bad.
43:33
All right.
43:35
Well, I'm going to end that there.
43:37
Cheers to all of you.
43:42
