00:00FBI Director Kash Patel said in a Sunday interview, quote,
00:04You cannot bring a fire.
00:05You cannot bring a firearm loaded with multiple magazines to any sort of protest.
00:08Does the president believe
00:10the Second Amendment rights remain in effect even when protesting?
00:13The president supports this.
00:15Second Amendment rights of law abiding American citizens.
00:17Absolutely.
00:18There has been no greater support.
00:20Reporter or defender of the right to bear arms than President Donald J. Trump.
00:25So while Americans have a constitutional right to bear arms, Americans do not have
00:30a constitutional right to impede lawful immigration enforcement operations.
00:35And any gun owner knows that when you are carrying a weapon.
00:40When you are bearing arms and you are confronted by law enforcement, you are
00:45raising the assumption of risk and the risk of force.
00:50being used against you.
00:51And again, that's unfortunately what took place on Saturday.
00:55Is the administration willing to separate DHS funding from other funding bills in order
00:58to avoid a...
01:00Look, at this point, the White House supports the bipartisan work that was done to advance
01:05the bipartisan appropriations package.
01:07And we want to see that passed.
01:09Policy...
01:10Discussions on immigration in Minnesota are happening.
01:12Look, the president is leading those discussions as evidenced by...
01:15His correspondence with Governor Walz this morning.
01:18But that should not be at the expense of government...
01:20Funding for the American people, which would include, as you know, Alex, FEMA funding.
01:24And we are...
01:25We are in the midst of the storm that took place over the weekend.
01:28And many Americans are still being...
01:30impacted by that.
01:31So we absolutely do not want to see that funding lapse.
01:33And we want the Senate to move...
01:35forward with passing the bipartisan appropriations package that was negotiated on a bipartisan...
01:40basis.
01:41Caroline, regarding Minnesota, on Saturday, the Department of Homeland Security...
01:45posted that Preddie looks like he wanted to do maximum damage to the Massacre bond force.
01:50Stephen Miller, on Saturday, posted that...
01:53or called Preddie...
01:54would be...
01:55the assassin.
01:56Why did administration officials jump to conclusions before...
02:00an investigation had even been conducted?
02:02Well, look, this has obviously been a very...
02:05fluid and fast-moving situation throughout the weekend.
02:08As for President Trump, whom I speak...
02:10before, he has said that he wants to let the investigation continue...
02:13and let the facts lead in this case.
02:15With regards to the deployment of Tom Holman to Minneapolis...
02:20should the deployment of Mr. Holman to Minneapolis be seen as a sign that the President is...
02:25dissatisfied with how the officials on the ground...
02:30handle the incident.
02:31No.
02:32Mr. Holman is doing an exceptional job, and he has been working with...
02:35Secretary Noem and President Trump over the course of the last year.
02:38Secretary Noem still has the utmost confidence...
02:40and trust of the President of the United States.
02:42And she is continuing to oversee the entire...
02:45Department of Homeland Security and all of the immigration enforcement that's taking place...
02:49across the whole...
02:50the entire country.
02:51Of course, Secretary Noem is also in charge of FEMA...
02:53and we are in the wake of a brutal winter...
02:55what is the current winter storm, where hundreds of thousands of Americans...
02:57have been impacted by that.
02:58Secretary Noem...
02:59So...
03:00Secretary Noem...
03:00Borders are home in is in a unique position to drop everything and go to Minnesota to
03:05continue having these productive conversations with state and local officials and I know that he
03:10is catching a plane in just a few hours to do just that at the request of the president.
