1. The left is positively turgid about this INCIDENT. They wanted a shooting and did everything they could to set the conditions that made it inevitable, from the rhetoric of the Democrat politicians to the provocations on the street. One leftist white lady dead is a small price to pay for the martyr they wanted.
2. Note that yesterday (1/6/26), the Democrats changed from “The feds are the Gestapo” to “A zillion federal officers died defending Our Democracy, and we support these heroes- here’s a plaque!” back to “The feds are the Gestapo” the very next day.
3. The law is clear – you can use deadly force against someone threatening you with deadly force. The ICE agent had no duty to retreat. This does not matter to the left and its narrative. You will see many experts with zero actual knowledge of the law opining – including the typically terrible cadre of leftist lawyers.
4. The video is clear that the driver was heading at and came in contact with the ICE agent. He had a right to use deadly force to defend himself. This does not matter to the left and its narrative. The left will do everything it can to keep people from looking at the actual video that shows the incident. It will push video that does not show the incident clearly, as well a perjured or irrelevant witness statements.
5. The leftist narrative will be “Trump’s ICE nazis are literally murdering innocent people.” This will work on Democrats and Republican sissies. Normal people will ask why she did not comply with the officers’ orders and why she drove at a cop. Properly addressed, we can leverage the gross irresponsibility of the Dem pols and communist foot soldiers to defeat their bogus narrative.
6. The corrupt state of Minnesota will “investigate” even though its senior officials have already announced that this was murder, and the ICE agent will be indicted in state court. The feds will remove it to federal court, where the case will fail.
7. There will be a civil suit against the US government and the shooter. It will be heard in federal court. Qualified immunity will apply.
8. The shooter will be doxed and his family threatened by leftists, who will cheer this on.
9. There will be rioting in Minneapolis, probably low-grade, since too much will make the left lose sympathy. If it gets serious, look to Trump to send in the armed forces, perhaps under the Insurrection Act.
10. The anti-ICE direct actions will accelerate. Trump will not back down. There will be a decision point facing to the left: Continue the current level of actions, which will have zero effect, or escalate into (further) attempts to murder ICE agents. Some leftists will embrace escalated violence.
The Administration should focus rigorously on the following key points:
1. ICE was present in Minneapolis doing its job removing dangerous criminals.
2. Democrat politicians are creating a dangerous situation with their rhetoric and caused this incident.
3. Democrat activists have been putting people at risk with their dangerous action and it must stop.
4. The communist woman was ordered to stop but attempted to kill a federal agent, who lawfully defended himself with deadly force. WATCH THE VIDEO.
5. WE WILL NOT BACK DOWN FROM MAKING AMERICA SAFE FORM ILLEGAL ALIEN CRIMINALS, INCLUDING FRAUDSTERS.
This goes beyond bloviating about law enforcement: if there are riots and attacks on Federal buildings and personnel as I suspect, put Minneapolis under martial law and arrest the networks of leftist criminals and Dem politicians behind this.
She had an officer in front of her and floored it!!
Gitmo’ the silly mayor.
Thank you. That vid could not be clearer.
This video is much less problematic than the first one. She hit that ICE agent a fairly good pop.
This is the result of failure to suppress insurrection using the powers granted to the Executive by law.
A lot more people are going to die if the rebellion is not crushed.
Yes, Mr. President, or no?
Of course the left will make this deranged woman a martyr and insinuate that she was just shot for no reason.
And a car is no less a weapon than a gun. If she had pulled a gun and just pointed it at the officer, not even firing it, she would be just as dead today. But she went beyond that with her car, actually striking him.
This case is someone actually trying to use her car as a weapon and the Dims tell us she wasn't at fault.
The first shot may have been justified but not the second which came AFTER the car was already moving past him.
>> The left is positively turgid
LOL! Usually when you see that word in a sentence it’s in a different context. 😉 It’s appropriate here, though. “Stiffly apoplectic”. 🤣
You mean OVER him the shooter was taken to the hospital. The guy beside the vehicle evidently did not fire.
A person in that situation cannot break down his instinctive response into nice, neat segments of time in an incident that unfolds literally in 2-3 seconds.
The man at the side of the car was also at risk of injury if the woman drove away.
Georgette Floyd. Say her name!
No apologies.
No backing up.
No conciliatory statements.
She did a stupid thing.
She got shot.
It was a good shoot.
There is one bad person in this story, and it was her.
That’s it.
And she is assuming room temperature
I believed then, and I still believe today that if Trump had sent National Guard troops in 2020 to put down riots his popularity and support would have not made The Steal possible
Trump and his administration needs to keep up the pressure now otherwise the 2028 midterms could be at risk.
The courts have ruled otherwise. And do you honestly think she stopped posing a dangerous risk to others after she got by that agent?
She needed to be stopped.
