Welcome to Ben Micellus on Breaking News. I'm Ben Micellus and this is the Breaking News. Apologize for the scheduling change. Normally the show airs 4.30 Eastern, 1.30 Pacific. But we had these shadow hearings taking place and Congressman Robert Garcia was going to be asking some powerful questions. We got word that that was going to be taking place and it was of one of the individuals who was shot five times by Donald Trump's Border Patrol Gestapo in Chicago, Mirimar Martinez. I'm going to play that clip in just a moment of what went down. But Congress member Garcia was going through the text messages that the Border Patrol Gestapo was sending to each other after shooting Mirimar Martinez five times.
And they tried to frame her and say that she was ramming her vehicle into the Border Patrol and ICE vehicle. They shot her five times. They arrested her. They basically dragged her out of the hospital while she was still getting treated. And then they sent texts. The Border Patrol and ICE Gestapo were sending text messages to each other verbally. vile sexualized violent disgusting messages to each other um that the democrats in the house and the senate were able to unearth and that miramar martinez's lawyers unearthed during the criminal case which was ultimately dismissed against mirimar after all of the evidence came to light so that's why we're starting when we're starting because I think it was very important to show those shadow hearings that the Democrats are holding live.
The overall shadow hearing was about Border Patrol and ICE, their invasions, their use of force, their terrorism on our streets. So let me just show you Congressmember Garcia reading these text messages, trigger warning. Stuff is very, very disgusting, horrible. grotesque words can't even really describe what this is here at play this clip it's disgusting shameful and it gets worse miss martinez these are images of texts sent by the agent who shot you and they're actually they're actually disturbing uh to read but i think it's important for the public to see this the agent linked an article about your shooting and texted read it five shots seven holes I fired five rounds and she had seven holes.
Put that in your book, boys. Oh, well, it is what it is. Shit happens. This is someone that works for the United States government. I fired five rounds and she had seven holes. Now, he was talking about you. And it's our understanding that he was actually bragging about his aim, shooting an unarmed American citizen.
What significant event involving Congressman Robert Garcia is discussed?
Is that right?
Correct.
I'm so sorry, Ms. Martinez. DHS has allowed the agent who shot you to remove evidence and to potentially destroy it. Is that correct? Correct. And if you're wondering, well, how did we even get here? Well, the person in the Oval Office is a felon. is a fraud, is a bankruptor, someone who was Epstein's close friend, someone who has been found in a federal court by a federal jury in a civil case to be a sexual abuser. By the full jury, they found he was a sexual abuser. This is someone who on audio bragged about molesting or grabbing women by their vaginas because he says you're rich and you get away with it when you're rich. It's someone who said Epstein's a great guy who likes women on the younger side.
It's someone who said he uses his beauty pageants of girls to inspect their naked bodies. So when you put someone with zero character on or in fact has the character of a felon and all of those things, I just said, this is what manifests.
