1
00:00:10,880 --> 00:00:13,080
Speaker 1: Oh, I got hit in the head really bad.

2
00:00:15,119 --> 00:00:22,399
Speaker 2: Oh well, thanks to Ice, Minneapolis is on fire, and

3
00:00:22,480 --> 00:00:26,480
instead of working to lower the temperature, Trump is reaching

4
00:00:26,519 --> 00:00:30,679
for the accelerant. As protests erup, intensions continued to rise.

5
00:00:31,359 --> 00:00:35,439
After another another person was shot by a federal agent.

6
00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:40,640
This morning, Trump said, of again reducing the temperature, threatened

7
00:00:40,840 --> 00:00:43,799
to use the Insurrection Act. Now. I want to be

8
00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:48,479
clear that law is meant for genuine rebellion, not Ice

9
00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:53,159
attacking US citizens. But Trump uses the same playbook every time.

10
00:00:53,359 --> 00:00:57,719
Nothing new here, blaming local leaders and treating American cities

11
00:00:58,039 --> 00:01:02,200
like enemy territory. Trump's latest post shows that he'd rather

12
00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:06,239
rule by force than govern by law. Let me show

13
00:01:06,239 --> 00:01:09,000
you what he writes in it. He writes, if the

14
00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:12,920
corrupt politicians of Minnesota don't obey the law and stop

15
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:18,200
the professional agitators and insurrectionists from attacking the patriots of Ice,

16
00:01:18,519 --> 00:01:21,560
who are only trying to do their job, I will

17
00:01:21,599 --> 00:01:25,599
institute the Insurrection Act, which many presidents have done before me,

18
00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:28,599
and quickly put an end to the travesty that is

19
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:31,879
taking place in that once great state. Thank you for

20
00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:38,359
your attention to this matter, President DJT. I cannot understand

21
00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:41,599
what this man is doing. Meanwhile, Trump also tried to

22
00:01:41,599 --> 00:01:45,640
claim that crime numbers are at a record low. Let

23
00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:48,599
me show you what he says here, a highly respected

24
00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:52,680
judge declined to block ICE operations in the very politically

25
00:01:52,719 --> 00:01:56,680
corrupt state of Minnesota. ICE will therefore be allowed to

26
00:01:56,719 --> 00:02:01,480
continue its highly successful operation removing some of the worst,

27
00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:05,519
most violent and vicious criminals anywhere in the world, many

28
00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:09,240
of them murderers, from the state. The great patriots of

29
00:02:09,319 --> 00:02:12,840
law enforcement will continue to make our country safe. Record

30
00:02:12,879 --> 00:02:16,120
low crime numbers. I mean, I'm not even sure where

31
00:02:16,159 --> 00:02:19,479
that this information is coming from. I'm not sure who's

32
00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:24,240
providing it to him. According to Minnesota Mayor Jacob Frey,

33
00:02:24,719 --> 00:02:29,560
Minnesota had two two murders since the beginning of January

34
00:02:29,599 --> 00:02:33,479
twenty twenty six two, one of which was done by

35
00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:37,599
John Ross, the ICE agent who killed Renee Nicole good

36
00:02:38,479 --> 00:02:41,759
And last night, Trump also posted it pretty I mean,

37
00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:46,719
a pretty ugly xenophobic rant about African food markets and

38
00:02:46,879 --> 00:02:50,039
halal grocery stores. Let me show you what he writes.

39
00:02:50,319 --> 00:02:53,639
Does anybody believe that in Minneapolis these are the food

40
00:02:53,719 --> 00:02:58,400
stamp businesses. There's no food, there's no cleanliness, there's no service,

41
00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:02,360
there's no, nothing except fraud. They get sent millions of

42
00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:06,240
dollars of taxpayer money and laugh at how stupid the

43
00:03:06,319 --> 00:03:10,919
Americans are. But not anymore. Oh no, these people should

44
00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:13,759
be sent back to Somalia or any other country from

45
00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:17,280
where they came. California, Illinois, New York and so many

46
00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:21,919
other places are equally as bad. Hint, hint. It's all

47
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:26,000
a giant Democrat scam with protection from the fake news media.

48
00:03:26,159 --> 00:03:29,639
But it will end as we make America great again.

49
00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:32,280
Now I want to show you these photos are actually

50
00:03:32,319 --> 00:03:35,120
of stores. The first one African Market, the second one

51
00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:40,240
i'll grocery. This is a xenophobic post if anybody has

52
00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:43,439
ever seen one before. Welcome back to The Michael Cohen

56
00:03:52,199 --> 00:03:56,039
this nonsense needs to come to an end. Now we

57
00:03:56,159 --> 00:03:58,360
know that Trump doesn't care about the facts of the

58
00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:02,240
situation happening on the ground in Minneapolis, but I do.

59
00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:06,639
I really do. Here's a post from someone on the ground.

60
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:10,280
It says, I don't know what to say. Minnesotans are

61
00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:13,840
reporting abandoned cars all over the place, at gas stations

62
00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:17,360
with the nozzles still attached, on the sides of the roads,

63
00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:21,839
in parking lots, doors open, abandoned, the driver taken. I mean,

64
00:04:22,319 --> 00:04:24,720
at the bottom of the post, we aren't lying. I

65
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:28,079
don't think y'all understand that they are just detaining and

66
00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:32,199
abducting anyone. They feel like they get bonuses just for

67
00:04:32,319 --> 00:04:36,120
detaining people, so they just take people. They ram cars

68
00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:38,759
and then take the drivers and passengers of those cars

69
00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:42,040
and leave the cars on the roads, wrecked and empty

70
00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:45,920
of their drivers. I mean, this is unfortunately what's happened.

71
00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:50,920
Could you imagine this is like that television show Bounty Hunters,

72
00:04:51,639 --> 00:04:56,839
where you are offered a monetary amount for each individual

73
00:04:57,120 --> 00:05:01,120
that you detain and or deport. Now, I do want

74
00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:03,439
to show you a few clips of the craziness that's

75
00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:07,319
happening on the streets. Ice went after you can't you

76
00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:11,360
can't make this stuff up. Ice went after a fourteen

77
00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:15,240
year old boy. They later let him go. But the

78
00:05:15,319 --> 00:05:19,079
question is why are they detaining miners in the first place.

79
00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:42,199
Play the clip. I hope that you're noticing the posture

80
00:05:42,759 --> 00:05:45,360
of these ICE agents. I mean, they think that they're

81
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:49,560
in Fallujah. They think that they're in some battleground area.

82
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:53,519
This is Minneapolis that we're talking about here, and they're

83
00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:58,639
detaining a minor. Another reporter proclaimed that he was pressed

84
00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:08,720
as an ICE agent threatened him with violence. Play that clips.

85
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:21,920
We are passed, we are pressed, we are pressed. I mean,

86
00:06:22,079 --> 00:06:27,920
could you imagine this little pathetic man, This pathetic little

87
00:06:28,079 --> 00:06:30,680
man who's sitting there, All of a sudden, he's got

88
00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:34,600
some power. He's walking around with an irritant spray get back,

89
00:06:34,639 --> 00:06:38,480
get back. Man is yelling were press. They have the

90
00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:43,480
right to be there by law. Problem these ICE agents,

91
00:06:43,759 --> 00:06:47,560
they don't respect the law. They're told not to respect

92
00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:50,240
the law. I want to show you another video of

93
00:06:50,399 --> 00:06:56,120
flash grenades and a protest scene that legitimately looks like Felujah.

94
00:06:56,240 --> 00:07:00,920
It looks like war, but again it's Minneapolish. Lay the

95
00:07:00,959 --> 00:08:06,920
clips up. If that's not making you sick to your stomach.

96
00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:08,879
I don't know what it is, but I do want to

97
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:11,879
I want to point something out. Remember you heard during

98
00:08:11,879 --> 00:08:15,480
that video a large bang of boom. You're wondering what

99
00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:17,959
it was. Well, it was not a flash grenade, nor

100
00:08:18,079 --> 00:08:21,160
was it one of these smoke irritant grenades. Oh no,

101
00:08:21,759 --> 00:08:24,319
what this was was an Actually it looks like a

102
00:08:24,399 --> 00:08:27,600
hand grenade. It literally looks like a hand grenade, all black.

103
00:08:27,639 --> 00:08:29,600
You pull the pin and you throw it like that

104
00:08:29,759 --> 00:08:31,920
idiot did when he was rolling it, like he thought

105
00:08:31,959 --> 00:08:34,919
he was rolling his bowling ball. But what comes out

106
00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:39,600
of it a little plastic bullets, little pellets, and they fly.

107
00:08:39,759 --> 00:08:43,679
That's why you started hearing glass shatter because wherever it's

108
00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:47,360
within like a thirty foot range, and you get hit

109
00:08:47,399 --> 00:08:50,360
by these little pellets, they hurt like hell, they knock

110
00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:54,440
you to the ground. Meanwhile, you still have Minneapolis Mayor

111
00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:57,639
Jacob Fray, and thank God for this level headed mayor

112
00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:03,159
saying that having two governmental agencies fighting against each other,

113
00:09:03,759 --> 00:09:06,679
it's just an American play the clip.

114
00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:09,720
Speaker 3: There's still a lot that we don't know at this time,

115
00:09:09,919 --> 00:09:12,960
but what I can tell you for certain is that

116
00:09:13,039 --> 00:09:17,960
this is not sustainable. This is an impossible situation that

117
00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:21,559
our city is presently being put in. And at the

118
00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:25,360
same time, we are trying to find a way forward

119
00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:31,039
to keep people safe, to protect our neighbors, to maintain order,

120
00:09:32,639 --> 00:09:35,120
and we're in a position right now where we have

121
00:09:35,759 --> 00:09:39,919
residents that are asking the very limited number of police

122
00:09:39,919 --> 00:09:44,200
officers that we have to fight ICE agents on the

123
00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:50,639
street to stand by their neighbors. We cannot be at

124
00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:56,240
a place right now in America where we have two

125
00:09:56,519 --> 00:10:01,759
governmental entities that are literally fighting one another. Why are

126
00:10:01,759 --> 00:10:05,120
we put in this position. We're put in this position

127
00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:10,080
because we have approximately six hundred police officers in Minneapolis,

128
00:10:10,799 --> 00:10:13,639
far fewer that are able to work at any given time,

129
00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:19,879
and there are approximately three thousand ICE agents in the area.

130
00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:21,159
Three thousand.

131
00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:28,000
Speaker 2: I mean they're overwhelmed. And Mayor Jacob Frey, he's kind

132
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:31,279
of lost in terms of what to do. Governor Tim

133
00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:35,919
Walls Well, he continued his plea for legal support. Play

134
00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:36,559
that clip.

135
00:10:36,759 --> 00:10:41,120
Speaker 4: What's happening in Minnesota right now defies belief. News reports

136
00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:44,360
simply don't do justice to the level of chaos and

137
00:10:44,399 --> 00:10:48,120
disruption and trauma. The federal government is raining down upon

138
00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:53,519
our communities. They're pulling over people indiscriminately, including US citizens,

139
00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:57,320
and demanding to see their papers, and at grocery stores,

140
00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:01,799
at bus stops, even at our schools, breaking windows, dragging

141
00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:05,320
pregnant women down the street, just playing grabbing Minnesotans and

142
00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:09,200
shoving them into unmarked vans, kidnapping, innocent people with no

143
00:11:09,279 --> 00:11:13,120
warning and no due process. Let's be very very clear.

144
00:11:13,519 --> 00:11:17,679
This long ago stopped being a matter of immigration enforcement. Instead,

145
00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:20,720
it's a campaign of organized brutality against the people of

146
00:11:20,759 --> 00:11:24,000
Minnesota by our own federal government. This week, he went

147
00:11:24,039 --> 00:11:28,200
online to promise that quote, the day of retribution and

148
00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:32,000
reckoning is coming. That's a direct threat against the people

149
00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:34,720
of this state who dared to vote against him three

150
00:11:34,759 --> 00:11:38,039
times and who continue to stand up for freedom with

151
00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:41,720
courage and empathy and profound grace.

152
00:11:42,919 --> 00:11:46,519
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, what else is there possibly to say?

153
00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:49,200
Got to give Tim Wallas a lot of credit. There's

154
00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:51,840
a guy who's been beaten down by this administration again

155
00:11:51,879 --> 00:11:55,840
and again and again, and yet he still stands and

156
00:11:55,879 --> 00:11:59,039
he still speaks truth to power. And if you don't

157
00:11:59,039 --> 00:12:03,200
believe what Minnesota officials is saying, CNN's Harry Enten, well,

158
00:12:03,279 --> 00:12:06,360
he actually goes through the numbers, play the clip.

159
00:12:06,159 --> 00:12:09,440
Speaker 1: By saying that Americans at this point do not like ICE,

160
00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:11,440
and that is very different from what we saw during

161
00:12:11,519 --> 00:12:13,720
Trump's first term. Just take a look here, Ice is

162
00:12:13,799 --> 00:12:16,440
net approval rating and Trump's first term ice, you know,

163
00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:18,399
kind of lukewarm. You had them right there to net

164
00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:20,759
approve rating of zero points. Look at where we are today.

165
00:12:20,799 --> 00:12:25,440
We're talking about a negative seventeen point approval rating. That

166
00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:28,039
is a seventeen point drop from where we were during

167
00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:31,799
Trump's first term. Among independents, the number is even lower

168
00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:34,159
in terms of the net approved rating. And why is

169
00:12:34,159 --> 00:12:37,159
it that ICE is so unpopular at this point? Well,

170
00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:39,440
take a look at our new CNN SSRs pull, and

171
00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:41,480
I think this sort of gives the game away. Ice

172
00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:44,360
enforcement is making US cities, let's safe. Look at this,

173
00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:48,039
fifty one percent, fifty one percent of Americans say that

174
00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:51,200
ICE enforcement is in cities is making those cities. Let's

175
00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:54,960
say that includes fifty nine percent of Americans who live

176
00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:57,639
in cities, compared to just thirty one percent who say

177
00:12:57,679 --> 00:13:00,759
that in fact, ice enforcement is making US cities more safe.

178
00:13:00,799 --> 00:13:03,759
So what we see here is Trump and ICE losing

179
00:13:03,799 --> 00:13:06,559
this argument over ice going in the cities making them

180
00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:09,200
more safe. Now, of course, the ICE discussion is part

181
00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:12,519
of a larger argument, right, a larger discussion about immigration

182
00:13:12,639 --> 00:13:15,759
enforcement in this country. And you know, when it comes

183
00:13:15,799 --> 00:13:18,919
to Donald Trump, Remember he's run on immigration in all

184
00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:21,399
three of his presidential bits. It's a big reason why

185
00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:24,320
he got elected the first time around won that Republican nomination.

186
00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:26,679
It was a strength for him earlier on during his

187
00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:29,200
second term. Look at this, his net approparating according to

188
00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:32,080
our CNN polling was at plus three points on the

189
00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:34,320
positive side of the ledger. But look at where it

190
00:13:34,399 --> 00:13:38,120
is now. It is way underwater at sixteen points on

191
00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:41,159
the negative side of the equation. That is a nineteen

192
00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:44,000
point drop in less than a year's time. Now.

193
00:13:44,039 --> 00:13:46,320
Speaker 2: So look, let me be crystal clear. You take a

194
00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:50,320
look at the numbers. He's underwater in this entire immigration

195
00:13:50,559 --> 00:13:56,080
ice scenario, and he's underwater simply because it's not working.

196
00:13:56,759 --> 00:13:59,679
Minnesota doesn't want him there, La didn't want him this,

197
00:14:00,039 --> 00:14:02,519
UGLA didn't want him there. New York didn't want him there.

198
00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:07,639
Nobody wants ice there, nobody wants ice in their neighborhood.

199
00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:13,120
And only together, by staying united and strong can we

200
00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:18,200
avoid this thing continuing going on for the next three years.

201
00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:22,480
