As the Pentagon prepares to send troops to Minnesota, the DOJ investigates whether state leaders impeded federal law enforcement.
I'm Daily Wire Executive Editor John Bickley with Georgia Howe.
It's Monday, January 19th.
This is Morning Wire.
And the U.S.
cuts off the aid spigot to Somalia after its government destroys a warehouse full of food donated by Americans.
Daily Wire senior editor Cabot Phillips joins us now with more.
Hey, Cabot.
So nearly two weeks since the shooting of Rene Good, the rioting across Minneapolis is not slowing down, if anything, seems to be picking up steam.
First, what is the latest from the, well, the front lines there?
So last week, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz urged President Trump to turn down the temperature.
But over the weekend, violent left-wing agitators in his state did anything but.
They continued to riot.
Large groups of protesters clashed with law enforcement outside of federal buildings and ICE facilities.
And a number of conservative demonstrators were brutally attacked in broad daylight.
In one instance, right-wing activist Jake Lang was physically dragged from the front steps of a government building by a large mob of leftist agitators.
They proceeded to beat him with fists, rocks, and flagpoles, as some in the crowd could be heard yelling, kill him.
All it's worth pointing out with police nowhere to be seen.
The video is pretty disturbing, we're going to warn folks, but we're going to play some of it here for our audience watching on the Daily Wire website.
Now, thankfully, Lang was eventually able to make it to a car, which sped to safety, but not before he was left with severe gashes to his face and head, which left him hospitalized.
