for The Five.
Hello, everyone. I'm Emily Campagno, along with Kennedy, Harold Ford Jr., Jesse Waters, and Greg Gutfeld. It's 5 o'clock in New York City, and this is The Five.
Trigger for the Insurrection Act of Minnesota. What are you waiting for?
I don't think there's any reason right now to use it. But if I needed it, I'd use it. It's very powerful.
President Trump is weighing if he should send in the military to stop the chaos in Minneapolis. Violent left-wing anarchists were throwing snowballs, chunks of ice, and fireworks at agents last night outside a federal facility, which has become their nightly hangout. Now, that comes as Dems pour more gasoline on the unrest. Democratic lawmakers Ilhan Omar and Pramila Jayapal hosting an anti-ICE congressional field hearing in St. Paul, dramatically titled Kidnapped and Disappeared, Trump's Deadly Assault on Minnesota. And within minutes, it turned into a full-blown identity politics whack-a-mole.
If ICE agents want to point out that the woman who was killed, Renee Good, and her partner, Becca Good, are lesbians, to ICE, I say this state elects lesbians to the State House, the State Senate, and to Congress. As a gay woman, I have not cried yet over Renee Good because I know if I do, I'm not going to stop.
This is pure racism. This looks like modern day slave patrols.
I think they're trying to recruit for ICE right now.
What is the Insurrection Act and why is it relevant to Minnesota?
White supremacists. The one place where we thought we would never experience this is the U.S. states.
It's like how to make an American quilt gone sideways. And members of the media are following the Democrats lead by smearing ICE agents as, of course, white supremacists.
Do you think the Department of Homeland Security is explicitly attempting to recruit extremists with far right ideologies, white supremacists, Nazis and the like into the DHS?
Well, we don't know for sure, but it certainly looks like it, Chris. Recruiting them using Nazi white supremacist propaganda, hinting to that. And then people see that. People who don't recognize it as Nazi or white supremacist, maybe they just join anyway.
What events led to President Trump considering military intervention?
But the ones who do recognize it see that as a hint.
Greg, you've been muttering this whole time. Talk to us.
have spoken like a secret Nazi. If they can call everybody, again, they call everything Nazis. Trump was a Nazi. Charlie Kirk was a Nazi. Israel was reminiscent of Nazi Germany. Border agents were called Nazis because they whipped, apparently, a non-existent Haitian. So the cause itself is arbitrary. They just like saying this stuff. How did the left, how was the left able to hijack the label of compassionate? Whenever you talk, it's the right who are heartless. It's like they lead with their mind, but the left reads with his heart. But you see the progressive costume of empathy is pure BS. They actually love to fight. They actually love to be vicious in public and incite angry confrontations as long as it's dramatic, as long as it feeds their attention, and as long as it's incredibly stupid.
And when you consider that they are rioting over the deportations of violent, vicious criminals, think about the same people who said, get the Jews out of Gaza, are shouting, keep the killers here in Minneapolis. These are the same people. So you've got to understand the hypocrisy.
How are Democratic lawmakers influencing the unrest in Minneapolis?
These are the same people who demand trigger warnings on TV shows. And you must obey pronouns. And they express outrage over dead naming somebody who's trans. They demand extreme consideration of their feelings. Yet they will get in your face and they will call you a Nazi and try to get you to swing at them. There's something wrong there. And here's something that no one's brought up. So why don't we treat the situation the way the mayor and the governor wants it to, which is a conflict between two opposing forces? You know, marchers and countermarchers, Proud Boys versus Antifa, Hamas supporters versus Jewish students. Why don't you just treat it like that? Then what would you do? You would have the police there in between maintaining order and distance.
