00:00:04.840
ICE agents repeatedly ordered her to get out of the car
00:00:16.060
and she attempted to run a law enforcement officer over.
00:00:19.820
This appears as an attempt to kill or to cause bodily harm to agents,
00:00:27.400
You're listening to the 47 Morning Update with Ben Ferguson.
00:00:32.400
Nice to have you with us on the 47 Morning Update,
00:00:39.540
A woman who decided to use her car as a weapon to run over ICE agents.
00:00:44.640
The ICE agent's shooting back, and unfortunately, she lost her life.
00:00:48.880
So why is the left weaponizing this and calling for more individuals
00:00:55.100
We'll break it all down for you, plus the facts of actually what happened.
00:01:00.280
It's the 47 Morning Update, and it starts right now.
00:01:04.820
There is one major story that we are going to deal with extensively.
00:01:08.860
It deals with a woman who was fatally shot in Minneapolis by ICE,
00:01:13.320
and she was shot through the front of her windshield
00:01:20.220
There are a lot of lies online claiming that the ICE agent shot her
00:01:30.220
As the car wrecked, you can clearly see a bullet through the front window.
00:01:35.860
That bullet hole is extremely important when it comes to evidence
00:01:40.660
because it shows that that car was driving directly towards the ICE agent
00:01:45.320
when he had no other choice but to shoot to protect and save his own life
00:01:54.840
It is also tragic when someone loses their life.
00:01:58.260
But what also is preventable is the anarchy that is being advocated
00:02:05.680
To be clear, this woman and others had, in essence, joined together
00:02:10.440
to follow, to stalk, and to stop ICE agents from doing their job.
00:02:16.560
If I don't want to pay my taxes, it doesn't mean that I can drive my car
00:02:26.600
If I think my tax rate is too high, it doesn't mean that I can just go after
00:02:39.740
You get involved and pick people that you believe are going to side with you.
00:02:43.980
But what the left has done is they have told their followers that they can go out
00:02:49.060
and just do whatever they want to do without any accountability.
00:02:58.360
A death that was inspired by the anarchists on the left who are advocating for people
00:03:06.460
And when you do this, it can cost people their lives.
00:03:10.240
What's also really sick about this woman losing her life is the fact that the left is actually
00:03:19.120
They wanted something like this to happen so that they could then use it to attack Donald
00:03:26.660
They were looking for a flashpoint or as Democrats have said, you never let a crisis go to waste.
00:03:36.480
Kristi Noem, the woman in charge of the Department of Homeland Security, was in Minneapolis and
00:03:43.560
she had very clear message for the men and women in uniform and actually the facts around
00:03:52.720
But before I even do that, I want you to also hear what J.D. Vance said.
00:03:56.180
He put out a tweet a couple hours ago saying, quote,
00:03:59.060
I want every ICE officer to know that their president, vice president, and the entire administration
00:04:08.400
To the radicals assaulting them, doxing them, and threatening them,
00:04:13.780
But congratulations, we're going to work even harder to enforce the law.
00:04:19.540
Secretary Noem detailing the self-defense shooting in Minneapolis.
00:04:28.560
And I think all of us can agree that in this situation, it was preventable.
00:04:32.420
I've spoken to the president today on the situation here on the ground.
00:04:36.020
I also just got off the phone a little while ago with Governor Walz and spoke to him as well.
00:04:40.240
I want to reiterate first with all of you the facts of what happened today.
00:04:45.220
At 10.25 a.m. Central Time, Immigration and Customs Enforcement were carrying out lawful
00:04:52.420
Because of the adverse weather that Minneapolis has seen in recent snow, one of the vehicles
00:04:59.400
Law enforcement were attempting to push out this vehicle.
00:05:02.540
And when a mob of agitators that were harassing them all day began blocking them in, shouting
00:05:08.340
at them, and impeding law enforcement operations.
00:05:11.740
ICE officers and agents approached the vehicle of the individual in question, who was blocking
00:05:18.880
And she had been stalking and impeding their work all throughout the day.
00:05:23.040
ICE agents repeatedly ordered her to get out of the car and to stop obstructing law enforcement,
00:05:31.380
She then proceeded to weaponize her vehicle, and she attempted to run a law enforcement
00:05:38.780
This appears as an attempt to kill or to cause bodily harm to agents, an act of domestic terrorism.
00:05:46.940
The ICE officer, fearing for his life and the other officers around him, and the safety
00:05:54.260
He used his training to save his own life and that of his colleagues.
00:05:57.240
He was treated at a local hospital, has been released, and is now with family.
00:06:02.060
I encourage the American people at this point in time to pray for him, but also to pray
00:06:09.780
Today alone in this country, there have been four different domestic terrorist attacks on
00:06:20.900
We've seen over 100 of these vehicle ramming happen in just recent weeks, and this must stop.
00:06:27.860
Ice alone is facing a 1,300 percent increase in assaults against them, and an 8,000 percent
00:06:37.120
In fact, the very same officer who was attacked today had previously been dragged by an anti-ICE
00:06:42.700
rioter who had rammed him with a car and drug him back in June.
00:06:49.440
And let me remind you why we're all here in this city today and why we've been here.
00:06:55.360
In communities across this country and here in Minneapolis, we're just enforcing the laws
00:07:01.780
For years, under President Biden, tens of millions of dangerous criminal illegal aliens, terrorists,
00:07:07.960
and suspected terrorists were allowed to invade our country over our southern border.
00:07:12.400
They were allowed to steal, to defraud, and to perpetuate violence against American citizens.
00:07:17.180
Regardless of who your mayor or who your governor is, President Trump promised every single
00:07:23.640
American that he would make America safe again.
00:07:26.180
He promised every single American that he would work to protect them from dangerous criminals.
00:07:31.740
Since Governor Walz has been in charge of Minnesota, we have seen homicides go up by over 50 percent.
00:07:42.340
Since President Trump took office, Governor Walz has released over 470 violent criminals
00:07:51.040
He has another 680 of them still within his jurisdiction that he could give to us today
00:07:59.720
Because Governor Walz and Mayor Fry refused to protect Minnesotans, and instead, they protect
00:08:07.860
And we didn't just show up yesterday, we've always been here.
00:08:11.160
But we're surging operations because of the dangerous situation we see in this country,
00:08:15.360
and because we're no longer going to allow illegal criminals to damage and harm, to kill,
00:08:21.160
to sexually abuse, to proliferate drugs, and to steal American taxpayers' dollars.
00:08:42.940
She then drives forward, literally into an ICE agent.
00:08:47.020
The ICE agent pulls out his gun only when she starts moving towards his body, into his body.
00:09:04.480
But you have these radicals on the left who are sitting there,
00:09:09.400
and they are saying that somehow this was not a justifiable shooting.
00:09:25.840
Immigration and Customs Enforcement were carrying out lawful operations here in Minneapolis.
00:09:30.920
Because of the adverse weather that Minneapolis has seen in recent snow,
00:09:34.300
one of the vehicles became stuck and ensnared in the snow.
00:09:37.780
Law enforcement were attempting to push out this vehicle,
00:09:40.120
and when a mob of agitators that were harassing them all day began blocking them in,
00:09:46.400
shouting at them, and impeding law enforcement operations.
00:09:50.120
ICE officers and agents approached the vehicle of the individual in question
00:09:54.120
who was blocking the officers in with her vehicle,
00:09:57.060
and she had been stalking and impeding their work all throughout the day.
00:10:01.080
ICE agents repeatedly ordered her to get out of the car
00:10:04.580
and to stop obstructing law enforcement, but she refused to obey their commands.
00:10:12.940
and she attempted to run a law enforcement officer over.
00:10:17.160
This appears as an attempt to kill or to cause bodily harm to agents,
00:10:25.040
The ICE officer, fearing for his life and the other officers around him,
00:10:29.620
and the safety of the public, fired defensive shots.
00:10:32.160
He used his training to save his own life and that of his colleagues.
00:10:35.820
He was treated at a local hospital, has been released, and is now with family.
00:10:40.220
I encourage the American people at this point in time to pray for him,
00:10:44.040
but also to pray for the deceased's family and her loved ones.
00:10:50.920
By the Department of Homeland Security telling compassionately,
00:10:58.080
Apparently, the wife of this woman was outside the car
00:11:02.580
and filming her while she was actively blocking ICE vehicles.
00:11:07.860
Apparently, after the shooting, it's being reported she ran back to check on Renee.
00:11:14.180
that's my wife, when asked if she can call family,
00:11:20.120
It is incredibly sad to see that the left has decided to weaponize
00:11:27.180
their own followers and put them in harm's way.
00:11:33.120
But this was a domestic terror attack in Minneapolis against ICE agents.
00:11:38.620
Hundreds of ICE agents have been rammed by cars, which are deadly weapons.
00:11:43.880
Where do you think they learned to do this to impede, to stop law enforcement,
00:12:02.620
These immigration and customs enforcement officers
00:12:05.040
are red blood American patriots doing a tough job to keep our nation safe.
00:12:09.820
Assaults against ICE agents because of the Democratic Party,
00:12:19.800
Congressman Andy Barr, ICE agents are enforcing America's laws
00:12:23.240
and delivering exactly what the people voted for.
00:12:28.780
Secure border and the deportations of dangerous illegal criminals.
00:12:33.100
Targeting ICE agents will never end well for anyone who tries.
00:12:36.740
Homeland Security putting it out this way, saying this,
00:12:40.880
Today, ICE officers in Minneapolis were conducting targeted operations
00:12:48.400
and one of these violent rioters weaponized their vehicle,
00:12:51.980
attempting to run over law enforcement officers
00:12:54.140
in an attempt to kill them, an act of domestic terrorism.
00:12:58.120
An ICE officer fearing for his life, the lives of his fellow law enforcement
00:13:01.540
and safety of the public fired defensive shots.
00:13:04.520
He used his training and saved his own life and that of his fellow officers.
00:13:09.700
The alleged perpetrator was hit and is deceased.
00:13:12.400
The ICE officers who were hurt are expected to make full recoveries.
00:13:16.820
This is the direct consequence of constant attacks
00:13:20.140
and demonization of our officers by sanctuary politicians
00:13:26.080
who fuel and encourage rampant assaults on our law enforcement
00:13:30.600
who are facing this 1,300% increase in assaults against them
00:13:45.580
With the law enforcement and Department of Homeland Security saying,
00:13:53.600
Why was this woman in a situation where she thought she could do this?
00:14:02.980
for blocking the Department of Homeland Security and ICE agents.
00:14:09.360
she decided to go after and use her car as a deadly weapon.
00:14:18.540
accelerated towards the agent directly in front of the car.
00:14:22.920
And the leftists are then promising violent retribution towards ICE agents,
00:14:34.080
I'll give you an example of what the left's putting online.
00:14:38.400
All ICE agents must be put down like the dogs they are.
00:14:47.240
Look no further than how they reply online to this.
00:14:55.880
God bless our men and women who are willing to go do these jobs.
00:15:05.720
he called the ICE agents months ago the Gestapo.
00:15:16.700
we've seen hundreds of ramming of ICE agents this year.
00:15:23.080
we've seen more than 100 ramming with cars of ICE agents.
00:15:29.820
because of the left who is inspiring her to go do this
00:15:34.180
and trying to make her believe that somehow this is acceptable.
00:15:43.000
The mayor saying disgusting things about our men and women in uniform after this happened.
00:15:52.360
and I want you to listen carefully to the words that he decided to use.
00:15:56.420
There's little I can say, again, that'll make this situation better,
00:16:15.760
Jacob Fry's message to our brave ICE agents in Minneapolis
00:16:19.000
who are getting the worst criminals off of his streets.
00:16:25.820
who is inspiring other lunatics to try to murder those ICE agents,
00:16:37.280
is what is fueling these attacks on ICE agents.
00:16:47.240
they wouldn't be telling her to go out and to do this.
00:17:02.460
which is calling for the attacks on ICE agents,
00:17:05.320
I want you to listen to the second part of what he had to say carefully.
00:17:32.780
It's amazing how they care so much about the life of this woman
00:17:39.920
but they don't care about the lives of those in Minneapolis
00:17:43.600
who have been murdered by the same exact criminals
00:17:59.020
They don't care about the countless people in Minneapolis
00:18:07.680
There have been people that have been killed by illegal immigrants
00:18:10.680
who were driving drunk or under the influence of drugs
00:18:14.520
or people that have died at the hands of illegal immigrants
00:18:17.340
because they sold them fake pills laced with fentanyl.
00:18:33.740
it's extremely sad and unfortunate that someone died.
00:18:36.720
the political fighting and disagreements aside,
00:18:40.680
You don't want people to die in law enforcement situations or otherwise.
00:18:44.380
But it strikes me that we are undergoing an epidemic
00:18:58.080
in an effort to obstruct lawful federal law enforcement activities?
00:19:05.320
We have had hundreds of car rammings against ICE agents
00:19:26.400
that these agents are enforcing existing immigration law.
00:19:29.840
But that's not how we change laws in this country.
00:19:43.520
If I don't like how much the IRS is charging me in taxes,
00:19:46.280
I don't drive my car into the Treasury Department
