And so the idea that there was some sort of a riot going on is not true.

They are just alerting people to the presence of federal officials, which they're allowed to do.

They were recording and observing, which they're allowed to do.

It turns out that the person they were looking for, the State Department of Corrections put out a statement saying that apparently this guy was not the heinous criminal they were claiming.

And

Furthermore, Bovino actually seemed to walk back his contention yesterday when he gave a much softer line.

He said, we're going to wait and find out what happens with the investigation.

But that's sort of a little, seems disingenuous a day after you call the, you say that the person was trying to engage in a massacre.

Stephen Miller called him an assassin.

Yeah.

And the video is pretty clear that none of those things are true.

And I think that's absolutely destroying the administration's credibility, not just with the people you would expect that from, progressives and Democrats, but also some Republicans and certainly independents.

There is, as you pointed out, a very interesting dynamic right now in Minneapolis where you have federal officers, local police, and the local police do not seem to trust the feds.

So the question becomes, who is investigating what happened on Saturday?

Who has the evidence?

Who is trying to run down what happened here?

Well, there's a really sharp conflict here.

The state and local officials showed up on the scene with a judicial warrant, and the Fed still did not allow them access.

And so there's a court hearing today at 2 o'clock to sort all this out.

But it's a conflict between law enforcement agencies I think we have not seen in quite a long time, especially publicly.
