But what happened leading up to this, those facts are incredibly important.

At 10.25 a.m.

Central Time,

on Wednesday, January 7th, what happened was this individual, she had been impeding and blocking in our ICE law enforcement officers.

She had been doing that throughout the day, obstructing lawful operations, which, Ben, as you know, that is a felony.

At one point, our ICE law enforcement officers then approached her vehicle and said to get out of the car.

She was going to be under arrest, and they commanded her to...

to stop obstructing operations.

That's when she would not obey those lawful commands.

That's when we see in the video, the law enforcement officer is in front of her.

She hits the gas, and he was in fear of his own life, and he was in fear of the law enforcement who were around him.

She weaponized her vehicle.

She used it as a deadly weapon.

And our officer, he responded...

as his training instructs them to do.

And unfortunately, there was a loss of life here.

But our officer, he conducted himself in the way he should have, and he did save his own life.

Well, they're clearly legally illiterate because ICE, CBP, and other DHS law enforcement, they are conducting these operations with the law behind them.

If people don't like ICE enforcing the rule of law, which is what our men and women are doing every single day,

These politicians should change the law or they can lobby Congress to change the law.
