- 0:08Speaker 1: What is going on there? The insurrection reaches new levels,
- 0:12Speaker 1: will take you inside what's animating that communist insurgency right
- 0:18Speaker 1: now and how it is placing the lives of our
- 0:21Speaker 1: men and women of law enforcement on the line. There's
- 0:23Speaker 1: a lot to unpack here, so we're going to do
- 0:25Speaker 1: it very carefully and smartly as we always do on

- 2:16Speaker 1: We do have a Marxist communist insurgency that's been going
- 2:21Speaker 1: on for some time now in Minneapolis. We saw it
- 2:24Speaker 1: pop up a couple of years ago, in fact, during
- 2:26Speaker 1: the George Floyd riots. And it really has never given up.
- 2:29Speaker 1: It's continued to be there. And now it's kicking once
- 2:32Speaker 1: again into high gear. And it's creating a lot of
- 2:35Speaker 1: peril in Minnesota. You and I have been discussing this
- 2:38Speaker 1: for many weeks now, unfortunately, the ongoing insurrection in Minnesota.
- 2:43Speaker 1: And this weekend, It reached new levels. And before I
- 2:46Speaker 1: even get into the shooting of Alex Preddy, what led
- 2:50Speaker 1: to his death, why that could have all been avoided,
- 2:53Speaker 1: he'd be alive today were it not for his decisions,
- 2:55Speaker 1: were it not for Tim Walz's decisions, Jacob Frye's decisions.
- 3:00Speaker 1: Before we even get there, we need to start with
- 3:03Speaker 1: what the hell is going on? How is it that
- 3:06Speaker 1: Alex Preddy was even standing on that city block? Why
- 3:09Speaker 1: was he there in the middle of the road? Why
- 3:12Speaker 1: was he a part of a group that was obstructing
- 3:15Speaker 1: law enforcement? How did they even know that law enforcement
- 3:19Speaker 1: would be present at that location so they could stand
- 3:22Speaker 1: there to menace them? How did that all happen? And
- 3:26Speaker 1: the answer to that question, as we begin today, is
- 3:30Speaker 1: that These people are coordinating an organized criminal conspiracy against
- 3:37Speaker 1: law enforcement. That's what this is.
- 3:39Speaker 2: You're hearing a lot of people use words like this
- 3:42Speaker 2: is a protest.
- 3:42Speaker 1: It's a protest. It's not a protest if you are
- 3:45Speaker 1: organizing people to obstruct federal law enforcement from enforcing federal
- 3:50Speaker 1: law and the Constitution. It's not a protest. It's a
- 3:54Speaker 1: criminal conspiracy to obstruct law enforcement is what's actually going on.
- 3:59Speaker 1: And we just got a really smart and important piece
- 4:02Speaker 1: from a great reporter called Azra Nomani. She writes for
- 4:05Speaker 1: the Fox News channel. And here's what she says this morning.
- 4:09Speaker 1: She's got a, she says that, uh, that this is
- 4:12Speaker 1: an organized criminal conspiracy. It's a far left network that
- 4:15Speaker 1: helped put Alex Peretti in harm's way. Peretti, excuse me,
- 4:19Speaker 1: in harm's way, then made him a martyr.
- 4:22Speaker 2: And she explores it this way.
- 4:23Speaker 1: She says the skirmish that led to Saturday's, um, uh, uh,
- 4:29Speaker 1: Unrest and the fatal shooting, they said, of an agitator
- 4:33Speaker 1: by Border Patrol agents in Minneapolis and the response that
- 4:36Speaker 1: followed were driven by a complex network of far left
- 4:40Speaker 1: organizations with a wide range of causes, according to Fox.
- 4:43Speaker 1: It's a coordinated web of encrypted chats, street alerts and
- 4:47Speaker 1: tracking of ICE agents. so-called abductors, they refer to ICE
- 4:52Speaker 1: as abductors, in a sophisticated database that was reviewed by ASRA,
- 4:56Speaker 1: and it showed that agitators were already mobilized at the
- 4:59Speaker 1: scene where 37-year-old Alex Preddy was killed minutes before any
- 5:04Speaker 1: shots were fired. In other words, he was killed, obviously,
- 5:07Speaker 1: after the shots were fired, but the point she's making
- 5:10Speaker 1: is they were there minutes beforehand disrupting ICE. ICE and
- 5:14Speaker 1: Border Patrol agents were there to arrest an illegal alien.
- 5:17Speaker 1: And Preti and others were there outside of a donut
- 5:20Speaker 1: shop to meet them as a part of a strategic
- 5:23Speaker 1: pattern of organized interference with law enforcement operations. Now, she
- 5:27Speaker 1: goes on and on and talks about how these are Marxists,
- 5:29Speaker 1: these are communists, Marxist-Leninists. It's a group, a national network
- 5:34Speaker 1: of socialist, communist, and Marxist-Leninist cells in the United States
- 5:38Speaker 1: that are all doing this kind of organization and then
- 5:40Speaker 1: leveraging the chaos that they create, including taking advantage of
- 5:44Speaker 1: the fact that Alex Preti is now dead. In order
- 5:47Speaker 1: to lead to more chaos in the streets of the
- 5:49Speaker 1: United States of America. And Azra is not the only
- 5:53Speaker 1: reporter to tap into this particular phenomenon. Some of you
- 5:57Speaker 1: may have already seen that Cam Higbee also has really
- 6:00Speaker 1: important footage up right now about all of this. And
- 6:04Speaker 1: I want to show this to you. Cam Higby infiltrated
- 6:08Speaker 1: their signal chat. This is an encrypted signal chat by
- 6:12Speaker 1: these people. And he was able to capture the following footage.
- 6:15Speaker 1: This is him inside of the signal chat listening to
- 6:19Speaker 1: their dispatch operation, where they're sending each other to locations
- 6:24Speaker 1: because they believe ICE has arrived. They're not even confident
- 6:27Speaker 1: that ICE is there, but this is what it sounds like.
- 6:31Speaker 3: These five observers are on there. KM, I'll probably have
- 6:35Speaker 3: you stay on that F-150, but anyone else that's on
- 6:39Speaker 3: this call that is currently on that F-150, I think
- 6:43Speaker 3: we could use our resources and energy better.
- 6:46Speaker 4: Sprout, I agree.
- 6:48Speaker 3: If there's someone you want to send us, that's great.
- 6:50Speaker 4: Otherwise, we could go up into Phillips.
- 6:52Speaker 2: If you want to go up into Phillips, that's great.
- 6:53Speaker 5: I'm going to attempt a roll call here.
- 6:55Speaker 1: In a minute.
- 6:56Speaker 2: Now you hear this.
- 7:01Speaker 1: It's a dispatch.
- 7:02Speaker 2: Do you have a passenger? Yeah, I do.
- 7:06Speaker 1: And they're sending people to locations. We believe that there's
- 7:10Speaker 1: ICE activity here. We're tracking these license plates. They have
- 7:13Speaker 1: a big file of all these license plate numbers. They're
- 7:16Speaker 1: notating where they see these cars going. So what you
- 7:19Speaker 1: have is an intelligence operation that's being, well, candidly, it's
- 7:24Speaker 1: poorly led because they're oftentimes falsely accusing people of being
- 7:27Speaker 1: involved in federal immigration enforcement. But it hardly matters because
- 7:32Speaker 1: what you're witnessing is a full-blown, in many cases mentally ill,
- 7:36Speaker 1: organized criminal conspiracy that that is menacing American citizens and
- 7:40Speaker 1: American law enforcement that's merely trying to enforce the law. Remember,
- 7:43Speaker 1: how did we get here? Why are there thousands of
- 7:46Speaker 1: immigration enforcers in Minnesota? It's to pick up murderers, rapists, killers,
- 7:52Speaker 1: child abusers. It's to go after them. That's why they're there.
- 7:56Speaker 1: And that led to Saturday morning where you get immigration
- 8:00Speaker 1: enforcement going to try and pick up an Ecuadorian national,
- 8:03Speaker 1: an illegal alien in the country and they're met by
- 8:08Speaker 1: this criminal resistance.
- 8:10Speaker 2: Let's start with Gregory Bovino. He's a Border Patrol commander.
- 8:13Speaker 1: He spoke to the press this weekend, and he described
- 8:17Speaker 1: how this weekend's events went down.
- 8:19Speaker 3: Watch.
- 8:20Speaker 5: At 9.05 a.m. Central Standard Time, as DHS law enforcement
- 8:25Speaker 5: officers were conducting a targeted operation in Minneapolis against an
- 8:32Speaker 5: illegal alien, Jose Huerta Chuma, You can see this illegal
- 8:37Speaker 5: alien on the screen to my left and right. That
- 8:40Speaker 5: is Jose Huerta Chuma, whose criminal history includes domestic assault
- 8:45Speaker 5: to intentionally inflict bodily harm, disorderly conduct, and driving without
- 8:51Speaker 5: a valid license. During this operation, an individual approached US
- 8:57Speaker 5: Border Patrol agents with a nine millimeter semi-automatic handgun. The
- 9:03Speaker 5: agents attempted to disarm the individual but he violently resisted.
- 9:10Speaker 5: Fearing for his life and the lives and safety of
- 9:13Speaker 5: fellow officers, a border patrol agent fired defensive shots. Medics
- 9:19Speaker 5: on the scene immediately delivered medical aid to the subject,
- 9:24Speaker 5: but the subject was pronounced dead at the scene. The
- 9:28Speaker 5: suspect also had two loaded magazines.
- 9:32Speaker 2: So he goes on to say he's got magazines as well.
- 9:34Speaker 2: All right, so.
- 9:36Speaker 1: That's Bovino just describing the simple course of events about
- 9:40Speaker 1: how they're at this scene. This is 9.05 local time.
- 9:44Speaker 1: They're trying to take an illegal alien into custody. They're
- 9:47Speaker 1: met with this resistance by these lunatics, these communist insurgents
- 9:52Speaker 1: who are in the middle of the street trying to
- 9:54Speaker 1: accost officers and prevent them from doing their jobs. And
- 9:59Speaker 1: then they've got this guy, Alex Preddy, who approaches them
- 10:03Speaker 1: and he does interfere with law enforcement. He interfered, he
- 10:06Speaker 1: tries to block them from pushing back people who are
- 10:10Speaker 1: menacing them, that is the law enforcement officers, and perhaps
- 10:14Speaker 1: prevent them from taking these women into custody, again, or
- 10:17Speaker 1: getting in the faces of law enforcement, trying to impede
- 10:20Speaker 1: their ability to do their jobs. That's exactly what happened
- 10:23Speaker 1: this weekend. So again, as the media are running around saying, well,
- 10:27Speaker 1: that Alex Preddy was just, what's the expression they're using?
- 10:30Speaker 1: He was directing traffic and he was just a peaceful protester. No,
- 10:34Speaker 1: he actually impeded law enforcement, got in between them physically
- 10:38Speaker 1: and And then when they tried to take him into custody,
- 10:41Speaker 1: he was resisting arrest. He was shaking around trying to
- 10:44Speaker 1: break free to get out of the arrest. So he
- 10:47Speaker 1: obviously commits a number of crimes is what happened this weekend.
- 10:51Speaker 1: And yes, he had a nine millimeter handgun on him.
- 10:55Speaker 1: He had it holstered. More on that in just a moment,
- 10:57Speaker 1: because that's a really important thing. But let me show
- 11:00Speaker 1: you video footage. This is just before the shooting. You're
- 11:02Speaker 1: going to see here, we've pulled this clip, witness video.
- 11:04Speaker 1: Alex Preddy is in the street. And he's already confronting
- 11:09Speaker 1: law enforcement as they're arriving.
- 11:11Speaker 2: Look at this. Cut to. You see him there in
- 11:18Speaker 2: the sunglasses. He's got a phone raised.
- 11:21Speaker 1: Officers pushing him off the street there. And that's that's
- 11:25Speaker 1: kind of as as people are arriving at the scene.
- 11:27Speaker 1: Pretty is already interfering with the officers. And then this cut,
- 11:32Speaker 1: cut three, I'm going to show you now. This is
- 11:34Speaker 1: the video of the moment when he tries to intervene
- 11:38Speaker 1: to block an officer from enforcing the law, who's literally
- 11:41Speaker 1: pushing back a woman who was accosting the officer.
- 11:44Speaker 2: And he dives in.
- 11:45Speaker 1: He physically gets in between, shoves his arm out. This
- 11:48Speaker 1: officer begins to try and take him into custody.
- 11:51Speaker 2: And here's how the scene played out. Cut three. Watch this.
- 12:00Speaker 2: This is footage that the Guardian has broken down.
- 12:05Speaker 1: Here's the whistles. A crazy scene. See, what happens is
- 12:10Speaker 1: these Marxists, they show up, they're blowing whistles, they're flashing lights,
- 12:14Speaker 1: they're banging pans, they're trying to cause as much commotion
- 12:17Speaker 1: as possible.
- 12:19Speaker 3: What the fuck?
- 12:20Speaker 1: What the fuck is wrong with you? So you can
- 12:25Speaker 1: see Pretty jumps in between a woman and an officer
- 12:29Speaker 1: and shoves the officer back here.
- 12:30Speaker 3: Watch.
- 12:33Speaker 1: The officer pepper sprays and pushes him back. And then
- 12:39Speaker 1: it looks like they attempt to take him into custody here.
- 12:42Speaker 1: They pull him back. They tried to take him into custody.
- 12:44Speaker 1: He begins resisting. He's trying to get away. He's pulling
- 12:48Speaker 1: away from them, pulling away from them, fighting back on
- 12:50Speaker 1: the ground. And now you're going to see the moment
- 12:53Speaker 1: where an officer pulls what appears to be Preddy's handgun
- 12:56Speaker 1: away from him. And then you'll hear a discharge and
- 12:59Speaker 1: then shots fired as they fire on Preddy, killing him.
- 13:04Speaker 2: Federal agent pulls a gun away.
- 13:07Speaker 1: First shot is heard. And then more shots are fired.
- 13:17Speaker 5: Okay.
- 13:18Speaker 1: Okay. All right, so that's it, guys. So we see
- 13:22Speaker 1: that footage. So that's the sequence of events that led
- 13:25Speaker 1: up to Preddy being killed. He was interfering with law enforcement.
- 13:29Speaker 1: He arrived with the intention to interfere with law enforcement.
- 13:31Speaker 1: He dives in between them, physically pushes them back as
- 13:34Speaker 1: they're doing their jobs. They try and take him into custody.
- 13:37Speaker 1: He resists arrest. There's a struggle on the ground. An
- 13:40Speaker 1: officer gets the gun out of Preddy's holster, it appears.
- 13:43Speaker 1: And then you hear a shot.
- 13:45Speaker 2: This is important.
- 13:46Speaker 1: And then after that, once that gunshot goes off and
- 13:48Speaker 1: you have officers yelling, gun, gun, gun, then they begin
- 13:51Speaker 1: firing on the suspect, in this case, Alex Preddy. Now, again,
- 13:55Speaker 1: he would be alive today were it not for Tim
- 13:58Speaker 1: Walz telling him he needs to fight the Gestapo. He'd
- 14:01Speaker 1: be alive today were it not for Jacob Fry acting
- 14:04Speaker 1: as if arresting rapists and murderers is tantamount to being
- 14:07Speaker 1: a Nazi. He'd be alive today if he didn't go
- 14:10Speaker 1: out on that street and impede law enforcement. He'd be
- 14:12Speaker 1: alive today if the Marxists didn't have an organized operation,
- 14:18Speaker 1: an insurgency going, including an intelligence branch, dedicated to obstructing
- 14:23Speaker 1: federal law enforcement. Alex Preddy would be alive today were
- 14:26Speaker 1: it not for all of that, and yet he's not alive.
- 14:29Speaker 2: So what happened?
- 14:31Speaker 1: Well, that officer, we've got a different angle where you
- 14:35Speaker 1: can see that it looks like the officer who grabbed
- 14:39Speaker 1: Preddy's weapon, which we now know is a Sig Sauer P320,
- 14:45Speaker 1: He grabs his weapon. And as he's walking away, it
- 14:48Speaker 1: appears the gun may have discharged when he's walking away.
- 14:53Speaker 1: So in the midst of people yelling, gun, gun, gun,
- 14:55Speaker 1: whistles blowing, crazy chaos all around these officers, officer walks away.
- 15:00Speaker 1: It appears the gun discharges. Here's the angle.
- 15:04Speaker 2: Watch this. Cut four. Take a look.
- 15:09Speaker 1: Gray hoodie. Watch the gray hoodie.
- 15:13Speaker 4: See that?
- 15:14Speaker 1: So for those of you watching, rumble.com slash Vince, as
- 15:16Speaker 1: he pulls away and the gun is sort of aimed
- 15:19Speaker 1: at the ground, as that first shot is fired, you
- 15:21Speaker 1: see his arm kick up, suggesting that he may have
- 15:25Speaker 1: had a round discharge out of the weapon. Let's watch
- 15:29Speaker 1: that one more time just so people can see it,
- 15:31Speaker 1: because on first blush, if this is the first time
- 15:33Speaker 1: you're seeing it, you may not detect it.
- 15:34Speaker 2: Watch it again.
- 15:34Speaker 1: No! And then the shots are fired. Now, remember, in
- 15:45Speaker 1: the moments before that, you got all the honking, the
- 15:48Speaker 1: rape whistles, guys yelling, gun, gun, gun. And then as
- 15:52Speaker 1: he's pulling this gun away, so everybody's on high alert.
- 15:54Speaker 1: These officers are on high alert. They've heard gun, gun, gun.
- 15:56Speaker 1: This officer is able to grab the gun.
- 15:58Speaker 2: This is very.
- 15:59Speaker 1: Close and pivotal moments where you have a bunch of
- 16:04Speaker 1: officers over the top of him. clearly not all of
- 16:07Speaker 1: them know that a gun's been removed from the suspect already.
- 16:10Speaker 1: They hear a gunshot in the midst of all of
- 16:12Speaker 1: this and they believe that they're being fired upon or
- 16:14Speaker 1: that an officer has made a determination that he needs
- 16:17Speaker 1: to be fired upon. And so this is a crazy
- 16:20Speaker 1: moment and law enforcement should not be put into these situations. Again,
- 16:24Speaker 1: the left is doing this. So that officer starts walking
- 16:28Speaker 1: away with the gun. The gun appears to discharge. Now,
- 16:32Speaker 1: I am not the only one who thinks that. In fact,
- 16:37Speaker 1: we just got an interview with the president of the
- 16:40Speaker 1: United States last night, done by the Wall Street Journal.
- 16:44Speaker 1: And President Trump told the Wall Street Journal that the
- 16:48Speaker 1: gun in question is a, quote, dangerous and unpredictable gun.
- 16:56Speaker 2: And I'm going to get into the details here now
- 16:57Speaker 2: for a moment. Take a look at this.
- 17:00Speaker 1: Trump asserted that Preti was carrying a very dangerous gun, quote,
- 17:04Speaker 1: very dangerous gun, a dangerous and unpredictable gun, adding, quote,
- 17:09Speaker 1: it's a gun that goes off when people don't know it.
- 17:13Speaker 1: The Wall Street Journal simply describes it as a nine
- 17:15Speaker 1: millimeter semi-automatic handgun. Well, that's not good enough for the
- 17:19Speaker 1: purposes of our review this morning, just to call it
- 17:22Speaker 1: a nine millimeter semi-automatic handgun. Of course, it is a
- 17:26Speaker 1: nine mil. but is specifically a Sig Sauer P320. And
- 17:31Speaker 1: that gun is at the center of a lot of
- 17:34Speaker 1: concern in the gun community. And it has been for
- 17:38Speaker 1: some time. There have been claims over the years that
- 17:42Speaker 1: the P320 is guilty of uncommanded discharges or accidental discharges
- 17:48Speaker 1: where you're not pulling the trigger and yet the gun
- 17:51Speaker 1: discharges anyway. Well, that would be a real problem if that's,
- 17:55Speaker 1: of course, what's happening. And last July, an airman in
- 17:59Speaker 1: the Air Force was temporarily linked to a– an airman's
- 18:05Speaker 1: death was temporarily linked to a Sig Sauer M18, which
- 18:08Speaker 1: is the military variant of the P320. Now, the Air
- 18:11Speaker 1: Force would later discover that another airman had actually pointed
- 18:14Speaker 1: the gun at him. That came out later in the year.
- 18:18Speaker 1: But that did not stop the gun community from taking
- 18:22Speaker 1: a very close look at the P320. And we have
- 18:26Speaker 1: some examples of people who really know their stuff looking
- 18:29Speaker 1: at the P320 and saying, hey, we've got some issues here. Famously,
- 18:33Speaker 1: there's a video clip from something called the Wyoming Gun Project.
- 18:36Speaker 1: It was done in July last year. This is during
- 18:38Speaker 1: all of the concern over whether or not an airman
- 18:40Speaker 1: had died due to an accidental discharge from a P320.
- 18:44Speaker 1: And this gentleman tested the weapon. by pinning the trigger
- 18:49Speaker 1: back by just one millimeter. That is putting just one
- 18:52Speaker 1: millimeter of force on the trigger, used a little screw
- 18:54Speaker 1: to do it, and then jiggling the slide. In other words,
- 18:58Speaker 1: the trigger hadn't even reached the trigger wall. If you've
- 19:00Speaker 1: ever fired a gun, when you pull the trigger back,
- 19:02Speaker 1: you feel the moment where it reaches its kind of
- 19:04Speaker 1: peak resistance before you finally pull the trigger action all
- 19:07Speaker 1: the way through. That's the trigger wall. So he pushes
- 19:09Speaker 1: the trigger back by just a millimeter. Then he jiggles
- 19:12Speaker 1: the slide. The end result is this video. Cut five,
- 19:16Speaker 1: watch this.
- 19:19Speaker 4: Did you see that?
- 19:21Speaker 2: Holy crap.
- 19:23Speaker 5: Holy crap.
- 19:27Speaker 3: It did it.
- 19:27Speaker 2: Holy shit. It freaking did it.
- 19:33Speaker 1: Now, he's not the only one who came to that conclusion.
- 19:36Speaker 1: Another person called another creator called One Shot TV duplicated
- 19:40Speaker 1: the same experiment, cut six. Take a look.
- 19:43Speaker 2: This was at the same time. All right, I've got
- 19:45Speaker 2: our little piece of plastic wedged in the trigger right there.
- 19:47Speaker 2: It's basically just pressed to the wall. I'm going to
- 19:49Speaker 2: move the slide and we'll see if it goes off.
- 19:55Speaker 1: Now, again, he doesn't fully action the trigger. He doesn't
- 19:57Speaker 1: pull it all the way through. He just plays with
- 20:00Speaker 1: the slide a little bit and the gun discharges. Now,
- 20:03Speaker 1: you may point out, as I was thinking, as I
- 20:05Speaker 1: was looking at all this, well, you know, if you're
- 20:06Speaker 1: pushing the trigger even a little bit, That's not a
- 20:09Speaker 1: situation where the gun is merely going off on its
- 20:11Speaker 1: own without any pressure on the trigger. True, but a
- 20:14Speaker 1: millimeter of give is not that much. And in fact,
- 20:18Speaker 1: if you use a gun in a messy environment, a
- 20:20Speaker 1: dirty environment, and dirt gets into the trigger action, that
- 20:23Speaker 1: may create some of the very space that they're demonstrating
- 20:26Speaker 1: in these experiments that keeps being replicated. Now, what's the
- 20:29Speaker 1: truth to all this? The answer is we just don't
- 20:31Speaker 1: fundamentally know. But is it true that the pro-gun, gun-owning
- 20:37Speaker 1: community has expressed concern about the SIG P320, undoubtedly. This
- 20:41Speaker 1: isn't lefties who are saying, hey, the P320, we need
- 20:44Speaker 1: to disarm everybody. No, it's specifically the guys who understand
- 20:48Speaker 1: guns who've been debating this subject. And President Trump kind
- 20:52Speaker 1: of tipped his hand, I think, yesterday in terms of
- 20:55Speaker 1: the details of where this investigation is going. When he says, yeah,
- 20:58Speaker 1: the gun kind of goes off when people don't know it,
- 21:01Speaker 1: that tells me that right now the federal government knows
- 21:05Speaker 1: that that first shot came from Alex Preddy's gun. This
- 21:09Speaker 1: is an important detail. Now, again, it doesn't in any
- 21:13Speaker 1: way excuse Alex Preddy's behavior. He went to be a
- 21:17Speaker 1: part of an insurgency designed to impede law enforcement at
- 21:21Speaker 1: the behest of the radical left, including people like Tim
- 21:24Speaker 1: Walz and Jacob Fry. And he shouldn't have done any
- 21:27Speaker 1: of that. He'd be alive today were it not for that.
- 21:29Speaker 1: Rene Good would be alive today were it not for
- 21:32Speaker 1: all of that. But he made a series of bad
- 21:35Speaker 1: decisions and now.
- 21:36Speaker 2: His life is over. It's awful. It's just awful.
- 21:40Speaker 1: And I've got more to break down in a moment.
- 21:41Speaker 1: We've got to go through this. How the hell did
- 21:44Speaker 1: this happen? And then what ensued afterward? The riots that
- 21:47Speaker 1: are ensuing in Minnesota. More to go here on Vince.
- 21:52Speaker 1: Good to have you with us as always.
- 21:53Speaker 5: All right.

- 22:59Speaker 1: Now, I say this, by the way, as a happy
- 23:01Speaker 1: SIG owner, what I'm talking about. I don't own a P320.
- 23:03Speaker 1: I own a P365. Perfectly happy with that weapon. And
- 23:08Speaker 1: by the way, the safety record on that is very strong.
- 23:10Speaker 1: So this is a worthwhile line of inquiry as you
- 23:15Speaker 1: look at how did this go down? How specifically did
- 23:18Speaker 1: this event go down this weekend? Now, Freddie should not
- 23:22Speaker 1: have been there. Freddie should not have been there. But
- 23:24Speaker 1: this is not the first time he's showed up. to
- 23:27Speaker 1: these types of crazy events, left-wing Marxist insurgencies. The Associated
- 23:35Speaker 1: Press has this. They give us a biography of the guy,
- 23:38Speaker 1: a profile of the guy. But what they describe is
- 23:41Speaker 1: that he actually participated in the George Floyd riots back
- 23:44Speaker 1: in the summer of 2020 as well. So he had
- 23:46Speaker 1: a history of this. They talked to his ex-wife. She
- 23:51Speaker 1: said she hadn't spoken to him since they divorced more
- 23:53Speaker 1: than two years ago. She said he was a Democrat,
- 23:56Speaker 1: of course, and that he participated in the wave of
- 23:58Speaker 1: street protests following the killing of George Floyd by a
- 24:02Speaker 1: Minneapolis police officer in 2020. That's how the AP describes it.
- 24:06Speaker 1: No acknowledgement of George Floyd's fentanyl overdose. Not far from
- 24:10Speaker 1: the couple's neighborhood. She described him as someone who might
- 24:14Speaker 1: shout at law enforcement officers at a protest, but she
- 24:17Speaker 1: had never known him.
- 24:18Speaker 2: To be physically confrontational.
- 24:21Speaker 1: She said Preddy had gotten a permit to carry a
- 24:23Speaker 1: concealed firearm about three years ago and that he owned
- 24:25Speaker 1: at least one semi-automatic handgun when they separated.
- 24:29Speaker 2: Got it.
- 24:30Speaker 1: So she said that he's the kind of guy who
- 24:32Speaker 1: would get in the face of law enforcement but not
- 24:35Speaker 1: physically confront them. Well, the video we just saw demonstrated
- 24:39Speaker 1: that he did both. He got in the face of
- 24:41Speaker 1: law enforcement and physically confronted them, which led them to
- 24:44Speaker 1: trying to make an arrest on Alex Preddy. Freddie's parents
- 24:48Speaker 1: also warned him not to engage with police, not to
- 24:53Speaker 1: do anything stupid. And yet he did. They had this
- 24:58Speaker 1: conversation with him just a few weeks ago. Quote, we
- 25:02Speaker 1: had this discussion with him two weeks ago, CBS News here,
- 25:06Speaker 1: you know, that go ahead and protest, but do not engage.
- 25:09Speaker 2: Do not do anything stupid, basically. And he said he
- 25:13Speaker 2: knows that. He knew that. Did he?
- 25:18Speaker 1: Why did you have to have that conversation with him?
- 25:21Speaker 1: Why did you have to warn him not to do
- 25:23Speaker 1: something stupid? And in the end, he did do something stupid.
- 25:27Speaker 1: He should not have been obstructing law enforcement. He should
- 25:29Speaker 1: not have been in the middle.
- 25:30Speaker 2: Of that street.
- 25:32Speaker 1: Now, what happened after that? Well, in Minnesota, the companies
- 25:39Speaker 1: in Minnesota have issued, that is companies who are based
- 25:42Speaker 1: in Minnesota, including companies like Target and, um, Best Buy.
- 25:48Speaker 1: They released a letter calling on government officials to bring
- 25:53Speaker 1: down the temperature, to de-escalate tensions, to find real solutions. Now,
- 25:58Speaker 1: the way the media are reporting on this, they're suggesting
- 26:02Speaker 1: that this is a message specifically for President Trump, that
- 26:05Speaker 1: he has to.
- 26:05Speaker 2: Bring down the temperature.
- 26:08Speaker 1: But the reality is they also cite pretty clearly local officials,
- 26:13Speaker 1: in this letter, that they have an obligation to bring
- 26:16Speaker 1: down the temperature. Well, they definitely do. And if you've
- 26:19Speaker 1: been following this program at all, you and I both
- 26:22Speaker 1: know who's responsible for this as far as government officials
- 26:25Speaker 1: are concerned. It's Tim Walz and Jacob Fry and Keith Ellison.
- 26:28Speaker 1: It's Ilhan Omar. It's the idiot Democrats who run Minnesota
- 26:32Speaker 1: who are running it into the ground who need to
- 26:34Speaker 1: bring down the temperature.
- 26:35Speaker 2: They need to.
- 26:36Speaker 1: Deploy local police to keep the peace because that's not
- 26:41Speaker 1: what they're doing right now. Immediately, Tim Walz made things worse.
- 26:46Speaker 1: Tim Walz made things worse this weekend. For example, cut eight,
- 26:49Speaker 1: take a look at Governor Walz, what he said.
- 26:52Speaker 2: Many of us grew up reading that story of Anne Frank.
- 26:56Speaker 2: Somebody's going to write that children's story about Minnesota.
- 27:00Speaker 1: It's just like the diary of Anne Frank in Minnesota.
- 27:03Speaker 1: Some child someday is going to write their own diary
- 27:06Speaker 1: about this moment. So Tim Walz, the guy who has
- 27:12Speaker 1: animated the insurgency in his state, by telling his weak
- 27:17Speaker 1: and vicious-minded base that they're fighting back against Nazis, comes
- 27:22Speaker 1: out of a death that he is now exploiting for
- 27:25Speaker 1: his own power advantage of Alex Preddy and says, you
- 27:29Speaker 1: know who the bad guys here are? It's the guys
- 27:32Speaker 1: who are arresting the murderers and the rapists, the guys
- 27:35Speaker 1: who are just trying to enforce the law and being
- 27:36Speaker 1: attacked by this communist insurgency. They're the Nazis.
- 27:41Speaker 2: Says Tim Walz.
- 27:43Speaker 1: So Tim Walz did nothing to bring down the temperature.
- 27:45Speaker 1: Tim Walz poured fuel on the fire this weekend. And
- 27:49Speaker 1: of course, what did we get out of it? Well,
- 27:51Speaker 1: we got more rioting. That's what we got. The weekend
- 27:54Speaker 1: was beset by left-wing rioting, including a psychopath leftist who
- 28:02Speaker 1: bit the finger off of a law enforcement officer. An
- 28:05Speaker 1: insurrectionist bit off an HSI officer's finger this weekend. Homeland
- 28:11Speaker 1: Security Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin shared photos on social media
- 28:15Speaker 1: showing that one of the federal law enforcement officers had
- 28:18Speaker 1: a severed finger. They had to put it in a
- 28:20Speaker 1: medical cup to try and see if they could salvage it.
- 28:23Speaker 2: They couldn't. He lost his finger.
- 28:25Speaker 1: McLaughlin wrote that, quote, in Minneapolis, these rioters attacked our
- 28:29Speaker 1: law enforcement officer and one of them bit off our
- 28:31Speaker 1: HSI officer's finger. He will lose his finger. Now, the
- 28:35Speaker 1: Justice Department says they've taken the psycho finger biter into custody.
- 28:41Speaker 1: But that wasn't the end of the chaos. One fat
- 28:44Speaker 1: insurrectionist in a NASA T-shirt was arrested for throwing chunks
- 28:47Speaker 1: of ice at law enforcement this weekend. Not exactly a
- 28:51Speaker 1: rocket scientist, this guy. He's a he's a you know,
- 28:55Speaker 1: he was throwing big chunks of ice at federal law enforcement.
- 28:59Speaker 1: We have photos of that from DHS. You can see
- 29:02Speaker 1: the rocks of ice. They take him into custody. They said,
- 29:05Speaker 1: of course, it's a federal crime. It's a felony. And
- 29:08Speaker 1: they've placed him under arrest. And then we get the
- 29:11Speaker 1: attack on the hotel last night.
- 29:15Speaker 2: There's a hotel in St.
- 29:16Speaker 1: Paul where these leftist agitators, these violent insurrectionists, believe that
- 29:22Speaker 1: immigration enforcement was staying.
- 29:25Speaker 2: That's coming up in just a moment. We'll get to that.
- 29:28Speaker 1: But first, our sponsors. I want to thank the great
- 29:31Speaker 1: sponsors who make this happen. HomeServe is a wonderful operation.
- 29:36Speaker 1: You know, owning a home is a great thing until
- 29:39Speaker 1: it's not. You know, one minute you'll be having that
- 29:41Speaker 1: morning coffee. The next, you're ankle deep in water from
- 29:43Speaker 1: a burst pipe. Repairs never care about your timing. They
- 29:46Speaker 1: definitely don't care about your budget. You protect your health,
- 29:48Speaker 1: your car, even your phone. But what about your home?

- 29:54Speaker 1: can cost you big time. That's where HomeServe comes in.
- 29:57Speaker 1: Regular homeowners insurance might not cover everyday breakdowns like a
- 30:00Speaker 1: furnace failure, a broken light switch, or a busted water heater.
- 30:03Speaker 1: But HomeServe offers plans that do help cover those kinds
- 30:06Speaker 1: of repairs. It's like a subscription for your home, and

- 32:03Speaker 1: I mean, the reality is that that agent was absolutely
- 32:10Speaker 1: bloodied and beaten by the mob last night. I've got
- 32:13Speaker 1: video footage here. This is from Frontline's TPUSA. Just take
- 32:18Speaker 1: a look. If you could, take a look at what's
- 32:21Speaker 1: going on with this guy's hand. His hand is all
- 32:24Speaker 1: bloodied up. This agent is absolutely messed up by this encounter.
- 32:29Speaker 2: Look at this. Take a look.
- 32:31Speaker 1: You see the blood all over his hands.
- 32:38Speaker 2: Federal Officer Bureau of Prisons. Looks like this officer's bleeding.
- 32:44Speaker 4: You know you shot some, like, dude with.
- 32:46Speaker 3: A beanbag at this point in late range, just banging
- 32:49Speaker 3: a fan? Is that a crime now? No, it's not
- 32:51Speaker 3: a crime.
- 32:52Speaker 4: Honest to God, no, it's not a crime.
- 32:53Speaker 3: You're oppressed, sir. You understand? Are you oppressed?
- 32:55Speaker 4: Are you oppressed?
- 32:57Speaker 5: Is only press allowed to be on the streets?
- 33:01Speaker 1: Are you oppressed? All right, so they're still dealing with
- 33:04Speaker 1: nonsense overnight. So that's what happened last night, guys, and
- 33:07Speaker 1: that's at the hotel. So they had to get federal
- 33:10Speaker 1: officers in there to evacuate the scene. And again, that
- 33:13Speaker 1: officer asked the most salient question. Where the hell is
- 33:17Speaker 1: the Minneapolis Police Department? So from the very top all
- 33:22Speaker 1: the way down to the bottom where you have the
- 33:24Speaker 1: screeching lunatics who are taking to the streets to obstruct
- 33:27Speaker 1: the ice, you've got a full-blown insurrection going on. Now,
- 33:31Speaker 1: is President Trump going to invoke the Insurrection Act as
- 33:35Speaker 1: a result? Well, I told you a moment ago, he
- 33:37Speaker 1: did this interview with the Wall Street Journal overnight, and
- 33:39Speaker 1: it doesn't appear that the Insurrection Act is in play.
- 33:44Speaker 1: Here's what President Trump had to say about the subject,
- 33:46Speaker 1: and I'm going to read between the tea leaves a
- 33:49Speaker 1: little bit about what comes next, but here's what he said.
- 33:51Speaker 1: In a five-minute interview with the Wall Street Journal, The
- 33:54Speaker 1: president didn't directly answer when asked twice whether the officer
- 33:57Speaker 1: who shot Preddy had done the right thing. The president said, quote,
- 34:01Speaker 1: we're looking, we're reviewing everything and we'll come out with
- 34:04Speaker 1: a determination.
- 34:04Speaker 2: Well, that's that's an appropriate way to handle this.
- 34:06Speaker 1: The president saying we're doing an investigation into how everything
- 34:10Speaker 1: went down. The president also said, I don't like any shooting.
- 34:13Speaker 1: I don't like it, but I don't like it when
- 34:14Speaker 1: somebody goes into a protest and he's got a very powerful,
- 34:17Speaker 1: fully loaded gun with two magazines loaded up with bullets. Also,
- 34:21Speaker 1: that doesn't play good either. And the president's right. If
- 34:25Speaker 1: you're going to go in there and obstruct law enforcement,
- 34:28Speaker 1: you're an idiot for having a gun strapped to you
- 34:31Speaker 1: as you do it. That increases the likeliness that this
- 34:34Speaker 1: ends very poorly for you. Now, does that mean you're
- 34:38Speaker 1: not entitled as an American citizen to go to an
- 34:41Speaker 1: actual protest? with a concealed carry gun?
- 34:45Speaker 2: No, that doesn't mean that at all.
- 34:46Speaker 1: In fact, you have a Second Amendment right to do that.
- 34:48Speaker 1: And anybody suggesting otherwise is wrong. You clearly have a
- 34:51Speaker 1: Second Amendment right to have a gun and to go
- 34:54Speaker 1: to a protest. That's just true. And plenty of conservatives
- 34:58Speaker 1: know how to do it appropriately, where you can keep
- 35:01Speaker 1: your gun on you. You're not acting crazy with it.
- 35:03Speaker 1: You're not attacking law enforcement. And you're protesting against some
- 35:08Speaker 1: idiot policy that the left is advancing.
- 35:10Speaker 2: That's totally normal. But this guy, Preti, took things to
- 35:14Speaker 2: a different level. This isn't a protest.
- 35:16Speaker 1: This is obstructing law enforcement and physically fighting with them.
- 35:20Speaker 1: And he did have a sidearm and somebody grabbed it.
- 35:23Speaker 1: And then, of course, the chaos the president now says
- 35:26Speaker 1: is under investigation. The Wall Street Journal says here that
- 35:29Speaker 1: Trump also signaled a willingness to eventually withdraw immigration enforcement
- 35:34Speaker 1: officials from the Minneapolis area. Quote, at some point, we
- 35:38Speaker 1: will leave, the president said. We've done, they've done a
- 35:43Speaker 1: phenomenal job. Trump did not offer a time frame for
- 35:47Speaker 1: when the agents might depart. Asked if agents would leave soon,
- 35:51Speaker 1: he praised what the administration had done already in Minnesota
- 35:55Speaker 1: and said, quote, we'll leave a different group of people
- 35:58Speaker 1: there for the financial fraud. Now, this is where I'm
- 36:04Speaker 1: going to read between the lines a little bit. It
- 36:08Speaker 1: sounds like President Trump is working on an exit strategy
- 36:13Speaker 1: for immigration enforcement in Minnesota. Now, he didn't indicate how
- 36:18Speaker 1: quickly that would happen, but he does say when they leave,
- 36:22Speaker 1: they're going to leave a different group of people there
- 36:24Speaker 1: for the financial fraud. And I would submit that it
- 36:28Speaker 1: would be a mistake to pull out of immigration enforcement
- 36:33Speaker 1: right now. And here's why. One, is the mission over yet?
- 36:38Speaker 1: Is every violent illegal out of the state of Minnesota?
- 36:42Speaker 1: Is every illegal alien taken into custody and deported? The
- 36:45Speaker 1: answer to that is quite obviously no, it's not over.
- 36:48Speaker 1: In fact, immigration enforcement is still trying to pick people
- 36:50Speaker 1: up and they're being menaced and attacked by insurrectionists every
- 36:53Speaker 1: time they do it. And if you decide at this
- 36:57Speaker 1: moment to withdraw immigration enforcement from the state of Minnesota
- 37:02Speaker 1: or the city of Minneapolis and St. Paul, the message
- 37:06Speaker 1: that the insurrectionists get is that What they're doing works.
- 37:11Speaker 1: Biting off the fingers of ICE officers works. Assaulting ICE
- 37:16Speaker 1: officers in the middle of the street, border patrol officers,
- 37:19Speaker 1: HSI officers in the middle of the street while they
- 37:21Speaker 1: do their jobs works. Attacking the hotels where they're staying works.
- 37:26Speaker 1: Trailing them as they go about their business and then
- 37:29Speaker 1: assaulting them when they get out of their vehicles works.
- 37:32Speaker 1: That's the message. If immigration enforcement is removed right now,
- 37:37Speaker 1: from the city of Minneapolis and the state of Minnesota.
- 37:41Speaker 1: That can't be the message. The message has to be
- 37:44Speaker 1: the one that got President Trump elected over and over
- 37:46Speaker 1: and over again, law and order. Restore order to a
- 37:51Speaker 1: great American state. Fight back against the insurgency. Defeat the
- 37:57Speaker 1: leftists who are breaking the law in the service of
- 38:00Speaker 1: helping criminals evade capture. This is why I've been calling
- 38:06Speaker 1: so frequently and why, by the way, I think most
- 38:09Speaker 1: of this audience has been calling so frequently for the
- 38:11Speaker 1: invocation of the Insurrection Act.
- 38:13Speaker 2: Send in the military, bring about a peace.
- 38:17Speaker 1: Enforce local laws that are not at all being enforced
- 38:20Speaker 1: by the local police department, not at all being supported
- 38:23Speaker 1: by the governor of the state, not at all being
- 38:24Speaker 1: supported by the lieutenant governor or the mayor or the
- 38:27Speaker 1: attorney general. Enforce the laws that are not being enforced
- 38:31Speaker 1: at all and restore peace to an American state. Now,
- 38:35Speaker 1: one of the ongoing contentions is, well, that could cost
- 38:38Speaker 1: President Trump in the midterms. People might be uncomfortable with
- 38:41Speaker 1: the scene of the military enforcing the law. The left
- 38:46Speaker 1: is going to lie anyway. The left is consistently lying
- 38:51Speaker 1: right now all over the Internet.
- 38:52Speaker 2: There are people who are.
- 38:54Speaker 1: Becoming convinced, decent people who don't just really consume that
- 38:57Speaker 1: much news, were becoming convinced that somehow the men and
- 39:00Speaker 1: women of Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Border Patrol and
- 39:03Speaker 1: HSI are doing something wrong, that they're hurting American citizens,
- 39:06Speaker 1: they're going out of their way to menace them, that
- 39:08Speaker 1: this is just some sort of evil authoritarian regime. People
- 39:13Speaker 1: are becoming convinced of this because the left is winning
- 39:17Speaker 1: a narrative fight against the truth. And we can't let
- 39:22Speaker 1: that happen. So how do we prevent that from happening?
- 39:26Speaker 1: One is tell the truth frequently, loudly, and make sure
- 39:30Speaker 1: as many people as possible can hear it. Two is
- 39:34Speaker 1: support the men and women of ICE. Don't be ashamed
- 39:36Speaker 1: to support the good guys, the heroes, the people who
- 39:40Speaker 1: are actually getting rid of the murderers and the rapists
- 39:42Speaker 1: from our country. They should be lauded for what they're doing,
- 39:46Speaker 1: especially in the face of this peril.
- 39:48Speaker 2: That's just true. And then three, don't cow in the
- 39:53Speaker 2: face of the left's violence. You can't.
- 39:56Speaker 1: Because if you display weakness in the face of their treachery,
- 40:00Speaker 1: they're only going to do more of it.
- 40:02Speaker 2: That's obviously true.
- 40:05Speaker 1: This is an important moment for our country. We do
- 40:09Speaker 1: need to bring the temperature down. And in order to
- 40:12Speaker 1: bring the temperature down, you have to put out the fire.
- 40:17Speaker 1: Right now, we've got a big one. We've got a
- 40:19Speaker 1: big one. And the president would do well to fix it. Now,
- 40:22Speaker 1: what is he doing about all of this? The president
- 40:25Speaker 1: has released a number of statements on this subject in
- 40:27Speaker 1: the last 24 hours. One of them is he's calling
- 40:31Speaker 1: on Democrats to stop stoking the flames of division, chaos,
- 40:35Speaker 1: and violence. He correctly notes that during the four years
- 40:40Speaker 1: of Joe Biden's failed leadership, crooked Joe Biden, tens of
- 40:43Speaker 1: millions of illegal aliens were allowed to pour into the country.
- 40:47Speaker 1: including hundreds of thousands of convicted murderers, rapists, kidnappers, drug dealers,
- 40:51Speaker 1: and terrorists.
- 40:53Speaker 2: He notes that he won the election.
- 40:56Speaker 1: In both the House and the Senate, Republicans won the election,
- 40:58Speaker 1: in large part because we pledged to seal the border.
- 41:01Speaker 2: He said, this is what we've done, and they have
- 41:03Speaker 2: done that. It's been a huge success.
- 41:05Speaker 1: And to launch the largest mass deportation of illegal aliens
- 41:07Speaker 1: in American history. The deportation is definitely underway, says the president.
- 41:12Speaker 1: And in Republican-run cities and states, these operations are going well, peacefully, smoothly,
- 41:17Speaker 1: because local law enforcement officers are going about their work
- 41:21Speaker 1: and with the states who are cooperating with them. In
- 41:25Speaker 1: the five Republican states of Texas, Georgia, Florida, Tennessee, Louisiana,
- 41:29Speaker 1: ICE has arrested over 150,000 criminal illegals over the past year.
- 41:34Speaker 1: Zero protests, no riots, no chaos. Why is that? Because
- 41:39Speaker 1: local cops and ICE are working together. We don't have
- 41:42Speaker 1: an insurrection, in other words, going on in those states. Meanwhile,
- 41:45Speaker 1: the Democrat-run sanctuary cities and states are refusing to cooperate
- 41:49Speaker 1: with ICE, and they're engaged, obviously, these are my words,
- 41:52Speaker 1: not the president's here, in an insurrection against the American people.
- 41:57Speaker 2: Now, the president goes on to say.
- 41:59Speaker 1: That he's calling on Tim Walz and Jacob Fry to
- 42:03Speaker 1: finally grow a pair and do something about all this.
- 42:06Speaker 1: He says he wants them to formally cooperate with the
- 42:09Speaker 1: Trump administration to enforce our nation's laws rather than resist
- 42:12Speaker 1: and stoke the flames of division, chaos, and violence. Governor
- 42:17Speaker 1: Walz and Mayor Fry should turn over all criminal illegals
- 42:20Speaker 1: that are currently incarcerated in their state prisons and jails
- 42:23Speaker 1: to federal authorities. Look, this is so obviously the solution.
- 42:28Speaker 1: If Walz and Fry were interested in this solution, they
- 42:31Speaker 1: would be doing it already. They're not interested. I don't
- 42:34Speaker 1: know how to say this anymore. They're not interested in
- 42:37Speaker 1: working with the president. The president can try and push
- 42:42Speaker 1: them to untruth social all he wants. They're not going
- 42:45Speaker 1: to do it. They've had every opportunity to do it.
- 42:48Speaker 1: The whole reason ICE is going into these communities is
- 42:51Speaker 1: because the Democrats who run the state are not turning
- 42:55Speaker 1: over the violent criminals who are in their custody. And so, look,
- 43:00Speaker 1: you can browbeat them all you want. It's not changing.
- 43:02Speaker 1: The poison is the point. They're going to keep doing this.
- 43:07Speaker 1: The president says local cops must assist federal law enforcement.
- 43:13Speaker 1: Democrat politicians must partner with the federal government to protect
- 43:17Speaker 1: American citizens in the rapid removal of all criminal illegals
- 43:20Speaker 1: in our country. He goes on and on and says, look,
- 43:22Speaker 1: these guys have to do this. He's also calling on
- 43:25Speaker 1: Congress to do something here. Here's what he's calling on.
- 43:29Speaker 1: He wants Congress to immediately pass legislation to end sanctuary cities,
- 43:33Speaker 1: which is the root cause of all of these problems.
- 43:35Speaker 1: American cities should be safe sanctuaries. for law-abiding American citizens only,
- 43:40Speaker 1: not illegal alien criminals who broke our nation's laws. Pass
- 43:43Speaker 1: all the laws you want. The reality is the left
- 43:46Speaker 1: is breaking the laws that are currently on the books.
- 43:49Speaker 1: I agree with that piece of legislation. It should be
- 43:51Speaker 1: completely forbidden to have a sanctuary city. But are you
- 43:55Speaker 1: telling me that these guys are not breaking laws left
- 43:57Speaker 1: and right? Are you telling me that they're not currently
- 43:59Speaker 1: obstructing justice, that they're not currently making lives difficult for
- 44:04Speaker 1: the men and women of federal law enforcement?
- 44:05Speaker 2: Of course they are.
- 44:06Speaker 1: Why don't we just enforce the laws we already have
- 44:10Speaker 1: and do it now?
- 44:12Speaker 2: Do it now. The president needs to do this. Invoke
- 44:22Speaker 2: the Insurrection Act. I don't want chaos. I want peace.
- 44:28Speaker 1: And then this, this morning, the president says he's sending
- 44:31Speaker 1: Tom home in him. Now, I don't know what this
- 44:34Speaker 1: tells us. I mean, it might tell us that that
- 44:36Speaker 1: I don't know if he's lost confidence in Greg Bovino
- 44:39Speaker 1: or if he feels like other people, maybe Kristi Noem
- 44:42Speaker 1: or whoever's not handling this responsibly enough. Whatever it is,
- 44:45Speaker 1: he needs a trusted emissary who's going to handle what's
- 44:47Speaker 1: going on in Minnesota. So here's President Trump this morning.
- 44:52Speaker 1: He says he's sending Tom Holman in. He's not been
- 44:56Speaker 1: involved in that area, the president says, but he knows
- 44:58Speaker 1: and likes many of the people there. Tom is tough
- 45:02Speaker 1: but fair and will report directly to me. Separately, the
- 45:06Speaker 1: president says correctly, a major investigation is going on with
- 45:09Speaker 1: respect to the massive $ 20 billion plus welfare fraud that
- 45:13Speaker 1: has taken place in Minnesota. And it is at least
- 45:15Speaker 1: partially responsible for the violent organized protests going on in
- 45:19Speaker 1: the streets. Additionally, the DOJ and the Congress are looking
- 45:22Speaker 1: at Congresswoman Ilhan Omar, who left Somalia with nothing and
- 45:26Speaker 1: is now reportedly worth more than $ 44 million. Time will
- 45:31Speaker 1: tell all. Thank you for your attention to this matter,
- 45:33Speaker 1: President DJT. Now, I'm encouraged that Tom's going in. Tom
- 45:38Speaker 1: is a no-nonsense, tough guy. He's got a lot of
- 45:43Speaker 1: experience with Border Patrol, a lot of experience securing that border,
- 45:46Speaker 1: getting our country back in order. And he's had a
- 45:49Speaker 1: demonstrated track record of success already during this administration in
- 45:53Speaker 1: sealing that border up and deporting nearly 3 million people.
- 45:56Speaker 1: He's been very involved in that from the United States
- 45:58Speaker 1: of America. Send in Tom Holman. But here's the thing
- 46:04Speaker 1: I'd like to see.
- 46:06Speaker 2: As much as possible.
- 46:08Speaker 1: When Tom goes, he'll be able to report to the
- 46:11Speaker 1: president exactly what he's seeing on the ground. And as
- 46:14Speaker 1: he gets up close to it, I think we can
- 46:18Speaker 1: say safely that we can count on Tom Holman to
- 46:20Speaker 1: give him an authentic breakdown of what's happening and what
- 46:25Speaker 1: needs to happen to resolve it. And if that means
- 46:27Speaker 1: invoking the Insurrection Act to restore order to an American
- 46:31Speaker 1: city right now, God willing, Tom Holman tells the president
- 46:35Speaker 1: this has to be done.
- 46:36Speaker 2: And the president heeds his advice.
- 46:39Speaker 1: It's time, guys.
- 46:41Speaker 2: It's time. What do we think, chat?
- 46:43Speaker 1: Yeah, Klaxon says, so Klaxon SS says no to Insurrection Act.
- 46:47Speaker 1: Once used, Democrats will be licking their chops. I'm telling you,
- 46:50Speaker 1: this is, I've seen that talking point and I submit
- 46:54Speaker 1: to you, it is an irrelevant one.
- 46:56Speaker 2: And here's why.
- 46:57Speaker 1: The left will lie no matter what. They make up drama.
- 47:02Speaker 1: They pretend the ICE are Nazis now. So restoring order
- 47:07Speaker 1: to this city is not going to be some escalation
- 47:09Speaker 1: in the left's narrative. It's going to be consistent with
- 47:11Speaker 1: the hysteria that they've been spreading. And in fact, it
- 47:14Speaker 1: won't even be true hysteria because these guys will just
- 47:17Speaker 1: be restoring order. Again, explain to me how sending in
- 47:21Speaker 1: the military would somehow advantage the left beyond the delusional
- 47:27Speaker 1: lie that they've been telling the media anyway. I don't,
- 47:31Speaker 1: I mean, I think it's irrelevant. This whole thing about
- 47:34Speaker 1: what does the narrative look like? What does their narrative
- 47:36Speaker 1: look like if ICE agents are dead? What does the
- 47:39Speaker 1: narrative look like if American cities are burning? What does
- 47:44Speaker 1: the narrative look like if we have autonomous zones in
- 47:46Speaker 1: the United States where the Constitution doesn't get to be enforced?
- 47:49Speaker 2: You tell me that. What does that look like to
- 47:52Speaker 2: the American people? And I get it.
- 47:55Speaker 1: There's like all sorts of people out there who look
- 47:56Speaker 1: at this and they're like, I just want things to
- 47:57Speaker 1: go back to the way they were. And by that,
- 47:59Speaker 1: what they mean is they just want to be able
- 48:01Speaker 1: to ignore this again. They don't care that there's lawlessness
- 48:04Speaker 1: going on in Minneapolis. I don't live in Minneapolis. So
- 48:06Speaker 1: as long as I don't have to see these images
- 48:08Speaker 1: on the screen, as long as I don't have to
- 48:09Speaker 1: hear people whining, I'm just okay with going back to
- 48:11Speaker 1: the status quo. To hell with that. If we're going
- 48:16Speaker 1: to restore order, we need to restore order for real.
- 48:19Speaker 1: And if you're just squeamish over the fact that, like
- 48:25Speaker 1: that anybody's complaining about anything, well, then you're not cut
- 48:28Speaker 1: out for this business.
- 48:30Speaker 5: You're just not.
- 48:33Speaker 1: This is about do you love your country or not?
- 48:35Speaker 1: Do you want order or not? Do you want the
- 48:37Speaker 1: Constitution enforced or not? It's just enough.
- 48:40Speaker 2: It's just enough. I don't want to, I'm not trying
- 48:43Speaker 2: to bum you out. I'm just trying to give it
- 48:44Speaker 2: to you straight. This is, I mean, this is, I
- 48:48Speaker 2: don't know if any other show is going.
- 48:49Speaker 1: To give you as sober of a take as we've
- 48:51Speaker 1: given you from how this happened, how these insurgents, these
- 48:57Speaker 1: Marxist insurgents are organizing against the federal government, how life
- 49:02Speaker 1: is being breathed into this by the evildoers who run
- 49:05Speaker 1: the state of Minnesota, how that guy Alex Pratt, he
- 49:08Speaker 1: should have never been on that street, how he died tragically,
- 49:12Speaker 1: but because of his own decisions, because of what Tim
- 49:14Speaker 1: Walz and Jacob Fry did, how there are questions about
- 49:18Speaker 1: how that first gun discharged in the first place.
- 49:20Speaker 2: Which could have led directly to his death as a
- 49:22Speaker 2: result of that.
- 49:23Speaker 1: To what happened in the wake of it, riots organized
- 49:27Speaker 1: by these Marxist psychopaths, these terrorists. And as I'm watching
- 49:31Speaker 1: men and women of law enforcement are just doing heroic work,
- 49:34Speaker 1: having to fight for their lives, stranded, no help from
- 49:37Speaker 1: Minneapolis police. And the president's saying, hey, we're going to
- 49:40Speaker 1: send Tom Holman in.
- 49:43Speaker 2: I love Tom.
- 49:43Speaker 1: Send Tom in. But send back in, too. Back up
- 49:46Speaker 1: in with him, too.
- 49:49Speaker 2: He needs support.
- 49:49Speaker 1: We do.
- 49:50Speaker 2: We need support.
- 49:51Speaker 1: I've got a big national radio show coming up today.
- 49:53Speaker 1: We'll cover all the latest on that. That's The Vince Show.

- 50:45Speaker 4: think he doesn't know what he's doing? That is the
- 50:48Speaker 4: X factor. Folks, elections are a math issue. That is it.
