Nobody can see those videos and say that that man was assaulting ICE agents. He was backpedaling the whole time, a woman was violently shoved to the ground. He was shoved, he was pepper sprayed, and then taken to the ground. If we're going to say that he was assaulting the police, I think that leads to more distrust of ICE, Paul said.
President Donald Trump said he got along swimmingly with Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) when the two spoke on the phone on Monday during a Tuesday interview with Fox News' Will Cain. The president discussed the call which focused on Trump sending Border Czar Tom Homan to Minnesota to lead his crackdown on illegal immigration following the shooting death of Alex Pretti during an interview on The Will Cain Show.
Governor Tim Walz called me with the request to work together with respect to Minnesota, Trump said. It was a very good call, and we, actually, seemed to be on a similar wavelength. I told Governor Walz that I would have Tom Homan call him, and that what we are looking for are any and all Criminals that they have in their possession. The Governor, very respectfully, understood that, and I will be speaking to him in the near future.
So, you said last night, It looks like a situation where an individual arrived on the scene to inflict maximum damage on individuals and to kill law enforcement,' Doocy said. Did he say, I'm gonna kill you,' or did he leave a note? How do you know that was his intent? Part of this investigation will be hearing from those agents and officers and people on the ground, Noem answered.
Minnesota's state official who investigates such shootings said in court filings he'd never seen federal agents block local access to a crime scene where both feds and the state had jurisdiction in 20 years on the job. It's the second time this month federal agents blocked Minnesota police from investigating a shooting death by federal officials. Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz has already pledged a state investigation, blasting the federal government's accounts of Alex Pretti's final moments as "lies."
