Now, these are the stories the left doesn't want you to know about, because this is all about a civil war. Quote, Trump's politicalization of the DOJ will not deter Mayor Fry, Governor Waltz and AG Ellison from doing their jobs to protect the people of Minnesota. I stand with them. I against these blatant abuse of power. So let's just be clear. Senator Schumer is fighting hard to keep criminals like PA Zhang, a rapist and child molester, in the country. He's been convicted of sex offenses against child fondling, burglary, larceny and rape. He was arrested in Minnesota. This individual is who Chuck Schumer is defending in the Democratic Party. That's where the Civil war comes in. There are other Democrats who are like, we can't say that publicly. Like, we know we wanna abolish ice and we are the same party that says we wanna get rid of police officers. But now, how do you actually accomplish this? That is the debate they're having on tv. Now they're going back to their old playbook, which is to demonize, dehumanize, and try to convince Americans that ICE agents are the Gestapo. They. That ICE agents are not crime fighters, not actually going after the worst that are out there, that are illegal immigrants. You know, the rapists and the murderers and the sex traffickers and the drug dealers. No, no, no, no. They want you to believe that somehow that is ice. And the do gooders are the people that broke into this country that are also committing heinous crimes. Take a listen to Chris Van Hollen. This is what he had to say is he's trying to rewrite history. And there's a theme that is happening. This is orchestrated by the Democratic Party. Listen to what he said about the deranged leftists that are impeding ICE operations and what he calls them.

C (6:51)

One of the things that gives me great hope, even amidst all of this division and chaos sown by Donald Trump, are the patriots in places like Minneapolis who are standing up blowing whistles to protect their neighbors. Blowing whistles on the illegal tactics of ice. And I was just at a rally in Hagerstown, Maryland, today, hundreds of people coming out because ICE has signaled that they might use a facility in Hagerstown for their purposes. And people were coming out to say no.

A (7:25)

You listen to Van Holland. One of the things that gives me great hope are the patriots in places like Minneapolis who are standing up blowing whistles to protect their neighbors. Now, who are they actually protecting? They are protecting the child rapists and the murderers. The worst among us that ICE are going out to get. And why are they having to do that? Because in Minneapolis, the local government refuses to work with ICE. There have been more than 500 people that could have been handed over to ICE that were in custody of the Minneapolis police departments. And what did they do? They let them go instead of actually holding them for ICE to be held accountable for their actions. This, again, is the Democratic Party. You take a listen to the St. Paul mayor. You may not have heard much about her compared to the mayor of Minneapolis who said to get the F out of our city, referring to ICE agents. But she's just about as radical as he is. And I want you to hear what she said about the targeting of church members that happened over the weekend. Don Lemon, the former CNN radical, was there as well. And here's what she said.

B (8:41)

Curious how you see this. Do you think that some of those protesters may have gone beyond their First Amendment rights and going into a church like that and broke the law. I will say that, you know, ISIS led the way in their charge of going on to school properties and detaining people from places that should be just as well kept sacred. And so, you know, we would have, we responded the exact same way we would have at any place of worship that our PD came in. And, you know, because this is an ongoing investigation, I can't comment more than that, but I would say we would have handled this in any other way. In any other place of worship.

A (9:16)

In any other place of worship. So there's the St. Paul mayor who's done nothing about the deranged mobs that are targeting a church during their church service and then defending these far leftists and then blames ice. ICE has led the way. We responded the exact same way we would have at any place of worship. Meaning that if these radicals want to come into a church during a service and terrorize those parishioners in Minneapolis and in St. Paul, they're in favor of it. Take a listen to Democratic Senator Tina Smith refusing to answer a simple question. And the simple question is, hey, these far left anti ICE mobs, should they be targeting churches during service? Here's what the Senator had to say.

B (10:06)

Yesterday we saw a group of protesters go into the city's church to protest a pastor that they believe is an ICE agent. That has, of course, generated considerable criticism from those who say this was a desecration of a place of worship. Would you urge protesters to do more of what we're seeing here, or do you think that is counterproductive for what they're trying to achieve? So almost all of the protests and demonstrations that we've seen in Minnesota, and especially in Minneapolis and St. Paul, have been peaceful, have been nonviolent. And of course that is the right response. What all of our messages have been is basically take the bait, don't fuel the President's narrative, don't fuel Donald Trump's narrative that this is, that this is a dangerous place. Let's show them how we stand up for each other and stand up for our neighbors. And that's what makes me so proud of Minnesota. Right.

A (11:04)

You listen to that Democratic senator. She now says that's what makes her so proud. Almost all of the protests and demonstrations that we've seen in Minnesota have been peaceful. So she's telling you and admitting, okay, yeah, some of them have gotten completely out of hand. But we're just so proud of all these people that just keep showing up. And we're just so proud that they're out there terrorizing People in church, Democratic Minneapolis City Council member telling this lie about ICE agents. And again, this goes back to the playbook of dehumanizing and attacking ICE agents, trying to turn them into the bad guys, into the Gestapo race. Remember, you have a mayor and a governor that have not only disparaged ICE agents, but they've said they want a civil war and they can get the F out of their city. Well, now you've got a Democratic Minneapolis City Council member saying this. Every single person in the city understands that this is not here for public safety. Right, Jake? We've had the first murder in the city of Minneapolis was perpetrated by federal agents. If this was about safety, ICE would be out of our city. And so I think we are seeing every single individual from every single corner walk of life in this city start to understand that this is not about safety and that we are trying to do something here in our city, because it's not. Okay? So to be clear, that is a Democratic City Council member telling a lie to a Jake Tapper. Notice how he doesn't say a word to stop him. A disgusting lie to smear ICE agents who are already under attack while trying to arrest rapists, murderers and pedophiles. This city Council member said this was just. If this was about safety, ICE would be out of our city. No, ICE is actually doing the job that you refuse to do. Minnesota Democrats are protecting the criminal illegals, just like the fraudsters who are there that have stolen countless dollars from American taxpayers. You've got deranged individuals out there just like Stacey Abrams invoking Hitler and Chavez when trying to smear President Trump. This is part of the Democratic Party. Stacy Abrams saying it this way in an interview. Listen carefully to the words she chooses.

B (13:23)

Economic populism raised up Hitler in Germany. It raised up Hugo Chavez in Venezuela. And we watched it raise up Trump and his regime right here in America.

A (13:35)

That is Stacey Abrams invoking Hitler and Chavez when smearing President Trump. Why is she allowed to say this and get away with it in her own party? Because they believe it. They are going to continue to advocate and to completely go after Donald Trump and any Republican and ICE agents and law enforcement because they do not want law and order in America. John Ossoff saying this about what is happening in Minnesota. And did he condemn the violence? Does he condemn what's happening with ICE agents? Well, here he is in his own words. I don't know, Pastor, where it is in Scripture that it says deny care.

C (14:27)

To the sick, that it says take from those with the least to give to those with the most that it says violate the house of worship to.

A (14:40)

Hunt down the refugee notice. He has no problem with hunting down the pastor who they think is connected to law and order. He won't condemn the far Left, the anti ICE mob that targeted a church in St. Paul during service, and instead slanders ICE for arresting criminal illegals. So this is the Democratic Party filled with Marxist socialists and communists who wanted to fund all law enforcement and wanted to fund ice. This is why every election is so important. It's also the reason why so many voted for Donald Trump because they want law and order now. Thank goodness Donald Trump is not giving in to the radical left. Instead, he's holding them accountable. And as the left continues to tell you what they believe in, I say one thing. Listen to them. This is what they believe. This is what they want for this country. This is how much they hate law enforcement when they tell you believe them. And it's our job to call them out.
