Former acting Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Chad Wolf took to Fox News on Wednesday to absolutely demolish leftist Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey for demanding that “ICE get the f-ck out of our city” after a woman was fatally shot while trying to mow down an ICE agent.
According to federal officials, a 37-year-old female U.S. citizen, who activists claim was acting as a “legal observer” for protesters, attempted to ram her Honda Pilot into ICE officers, prompting one agent to open fire in self-defense.
DHS Secretary Kristi Noem labeled the woman’s actions an “act of domestic terrorism.”
Video footage circulating online shows the vehicle reversing and then accelerating toward agents, before shots were fired.
In response, Mayor Frey, in a profanity-laced press conference, dismissed the self-defense claim as “bullsh-t” and accused ICE of “recklessly using power” that resulted in an unnecessary death.
“Having seen the video myself, I wanna tell everybody directly, that is bullsh-t,” Frey fumed, claiming the woman was simply “driving away.”
Frey didn’t stop there; he also told ICE agents to “Get the f-ck out of Minneapolis. We do not want you here.”
After the press conference concluded, Fox News’ John Roberts stated, “it’s pretty clear that Minnesota officials are very hot about what happened, speaking in terms that some people might consider to be inflammatory toward ICE, but then other people might think are justified.”
Roberts then asked Wolf, “Where do you come down on what we’ve been saying?”
Wolf replied, “I listened to the majority of that press conference. Here’s what I’ll say that the mayor’s comments were probably some of the most unintelligible, unhinged comments I think I’ve heard in quite some time. Clearly he’s placing the blame a hundred percent based off of probably one video that he has seen on ICE agents, saying that they have inflamed the situation, that they are there to do all sorts of chaos in his city. He lays no blame at all at the individuals that are impeding law enforcement.”
“They are a law enforcement officer like any other officer, and if you get in their way, and you don’t take their commands, well then that’s against the law and you can be arrested,” Wolf continued. “But again, he brushes past that, doesn’t mention any of that. He also doesn’t mention that it’s his policies that are requiring hundreds of ICE agents in his communities. What he didn’t say there is that he knowingly releases criminal illegal aliens out of his jails back into the community, and that he purposely directs his law enforcement officers not to help ICE on the front end of any of these investigations.”
“And so when ICE is there, outnumbered as they often are, it’s because the Minneapolis Police Department has been told to stand down, that you cannot help ICE. And so my guess is that come tomorrow or even later this afternoon, that you’re going to see a ten, or sorry, a two or three-fold increase in ICE officers in Minneapolis to make sure that what occurred today doesn’t happen tomorrow.”
