Secretary Noem [press conference]: Joe Biden was complicit, and culpable, in the biggest child trafficking ring in all of human history. On his watch, more than four hundred and fifty thousand unaccompanied children were lost, or they were placed with unvetted sponsors at the southern border and were completely overwhelmed. So far, the Trump administration has found over one hundred and twenty-nine thousand of these children, and we're going to continue to ramp up our efforts to make sure that every single one of them is accounted for, found, and returned to family and people that love them.
Mayor Frey: We collectively are going to do everything possible to get to the bottom of this, to get justice, and to make sure that there is an investigation that is conducted in full. But what we do know is that a thirty-seven year old woman is dead, and that she was shot by ICE.
[the woman attempted to hit an ICE agent with her vehicle; shooting justified]
I think it was reported that she is an actual citizen.
Representative Burchett [Minnesota Fraud Hearing]: Do you have any knowledge or heard any talk that Somalis are directing any of these funds, American U.S. tax dollars, to Al-Shabaab, terrorist organization?
Representative Robbins: There have been past criminal convictions in this, and currently we believe it's mostly happening indirectly, as they send money to Somalia, that Al-Shabaab takes a cut.
Chairman Cruz [Hearing on Rogue Judges]: Today I've sent a letter to the Speaker of the House, calling on the House to immediately advance the pending articles of impeachment against Chief Judge Boasberg, and Judge Boardman. Both of these judges, I believe, meet the standard for impeachment, and for conviction, and removal of office.
@RepLuna
Based on testimony today, I have enough evidence to believe both @GovTimWalz and @keithellison were knowingly complicit in a Somali fraud scheme in Minnesota.
Therefore I have referred them BOTH to the DOJ for criminal charges. May justice be swift. The American people are tired of being taken advantage of.

Minneapolis Police vehicles are being pelted with snowballs thrown by crowd as they leave the scene of today's ICE shooting.
LIVE: Governor Walz holds press conference on ICE-involved shooting
Governor Walz: We've been warning for weeks that the Trump administration's dangerous, sensationalized operations, are a threat to our public safety, that someone was going to get hurt. Just yesterday, I said exactly that. What we're seeing is the consequence of governance designed to generate fear, headlines, and conflict. It's governing by reality TV, and today that recklessness cost someone their life.
[ignores that the woman attempted to kill a federal agent]
Governor Walz: I've issued a warning order to prepare the Minnesota National Guard. We have soldiers in training to be deployed if necessary. I remind you, a warning order is a head's up for folks, and these National Guard Troops are our National Guard Troops.
Governor Walz: Well, I said this yesterday, we've never been at war with our federal government.
Walz looks terrible; thinner and more disheveled than usual.
