Brief summary of the video: The YouTube video (from WCCO - CBS Minnesota, uploaded January 24, 2026) is a ~7-minute clip of a press conference by U.S. Border Patrol Commander Greg Bovino. He discusses a fatal shooting that morning in south Minneapolis during a targeted DHS operation involving Border Patrol agents.
Key points from Bovino's statements: The suspect was identified as Jose Werta Chuma (described as an undocumented immigrant with prior criminal history including domestic assault and disorderly conduct). During the operation, the man allegedly approached agents armed with a 9mm semi-automatic handgun and extra loaded magazines. Agents attempted to disarm him, but he resisted; an agent fired in self-defense, fearing for their lives and others' safety. The suspect received immediate aid but died at the scene. Bovino characterized the incident as an attempt to "do maximum damage and massacre law enforcement." Later, ~200 rioters reportedly arrived, assaulted officers, and obstructed operations, leading to crowd control measures. He defended the involved agent's training and criticized local officials (e.g., Mayor Fry and Chief O'Hara) for allegedly omitting key details like the suspect's gun. He framed it within broader attacks on federal law enforcement and called for cooperation against violent criminals.

“””I’ve watched every available video of the event several times. What happened is quite obvious, just as it is obvious that Bovino lies without conscience.”””
Case closed, then. Convicted by an internet sleuth.
This perp put his nose where it did NOT belong. He isn’t no “Prince” like the commie media portrays him as..he came armed with a gun to do harm. He could have come unarmed if he wanted to, stood back while ICE did their job and yell and have his lil b*tch fest..but NO, instead he wanted to be a lil commie hero by helping this criminal illegal get away so he FAFO’d that simple..and why are the commies SO pissed, simple..they want to kill at least ONE ICE officer so they can say “We finally got one”
Just because he carried an extra clip doesn’t mean he was planning a mass killing. He had a permit and was legally carrying. The way Bovino describes what happens isn’t true. The guy didn’t have the gun out threatening agents as Bovino claims.
You couldn’t be more right. Thank you for bringing the truth to this.
did NBC News ever bother to interview the family of Ashlii Babbitt and ask them about their feelings about Ashlii, no of course not..she supported Trump so therefore good riddance she deserved it
Sure thing— and you, of course are without any doubt at all— the absolute arbiter of truth. Yeshuah his own self.
Oh, that makes sense now. Thanks.
I was under the impression that the biter is the one that got killed but Bondi says that one is in custody
So you are against concealed and carry?
Have you watched it? There are like five videos that matter in this case, at least so far.
If you had watched them, you’d know I’m correct.
If you haven’t carefully and objectively watched them, why should we care about your opinion?
The politicians calling for violence against the countries law enforcement should be arrested
Thanks for posting the summary of the video for those of us who might not have the bestest internet to watch videos, or don’t have time.
Good job, Joe. Many of us appreciate it!
Have you watched the five videos that show this incident in its entirety? Have you even watched one, carefully and objectively, as a good citizen should do?

Illegal that ICE was arresting. Protestors went FAFO mode and it ended poorly for said protester.
Clip? like what is on a Garand.. a clip? What the hell are YOU talking about.
They are called magazines. In this case two fully loaded and one fully loaded in the SIG P320.
The guy shot in the leg had a different firearm with add’l magazines.
No clips anywhere to be found.
Once again the agent provocateur is braying again. Watt-less.
Actually the body cameras. So there is that? You seen those?
And Wikipedia, which had his hagiography written so fast, I wondered if they sent him to die with the story already written and ready to upload.
Very likely he was looking for trouble. For those who carry for self defense, always try to avoid trouble/confrontations. Never be the aggressor.
Going in close up, armed and then impeding law enforcement from attempting to make arrests? Why would the suspect being armed, even go into a venue like that? Just looking for it.
How can you say that? He was on his hands and knees when the were trying to subdue him so POSSIBLY he was reaching for something in the melee?...Fk him for putting himself in this position. I’m impressed that these FEDERAL Police haven’t smoked more of these brain dead subversives.
“””If you haven’t carefully and objectively watched them, why should we care about your opinion?”””
My opinion carries the same weight as yours.Neither one matters.
