00:00A couple nights ago I met with a woman who works as a cashier at a grocery store and I told her I was coming to see you, Mr. Lyons, and she said, will you ask him, and she didn't want to give her name, she was terrified to give her name, but she said when I get off my shift around midnight and I walk through the parking lot to my car, she said if somebody rolls up in an unidentified van and gets out wearing all black and their face is covered and they don't have any identification,
00:30and they asked me to get into the van, how do I know who they are?
00:39How does she know, Mr. Lyons? How does she know if they're an ICE agent or bad guys?
00:44Sir, ICE agents have identifiable placards on their uniforms as well as their badges representative, but you won't see ICE agents rolling through the parking lots and just snatching someone up. ICE does intelligence-driven, targeted enforcement operations.
00:58Well, Mr. Homan and others have said that they target individuals based on the color of their skin and the accent that they speak, and that's why people are running through the fields and factories where they work.
01:09Director Lyons, last year you said in Phoenix at the Border Security Expo that you wanted to see a deportation process that was like, quote, Amazon Prime, but with human beings.
01:19Mr. Lyons, how many times has Amazon Prime shot a mom three times in the face?
01:26None, sir, but you're also...
01:28It's the square root of zero, that's right.
01:29Yes, sir.
01:30Yeah, but if we're going to go down that route of my comment, I did say that comment.
01:33However, that comment was taken out.
01:35If you go back and watch the video, I did say that we need to be more efficient when it comes to removing individuals from the United States because ICE doesn't detain punitively.
01:45We detain to remove. I don't want to see people in custody. At the end of my statement was, and again, to your point, it was an industry day for AI inefficiencies, but I did say at the end of it, but we deal with human beings, so we can't be like them.
02:00That's the key part that you're leaving out.
02:02Well, speaking of human beings, how many times has Amazon Prime shot a nurse ten times in the back?
02:07None.
02:08How many times has Amazon Prime dragged a woman out of her car by her hair and then dragged her down the street?
02:13None.
02:13How many ICE agents have been fired for their conduct under your leadership?
02:19Sir, I can get you that data. I'll get that back to you.
02:22Is it more than one?
02:24I'm not going to speak about personnel actions, but I'll get you that data.
02:28Can you tell us if at least, God, I hope at least one person has been fired for their conduct since these operations have begun.
02:34Are you telling us you can't even say one person's been fired?
02:37Sir, I'm not going to talk about personnel actions, but we will get back to you.
02:40But two people have been killed so far. Is that right?
02:42A nurse named Freddie and a mom named Good. Two people have been killed so far.
02:48Yes, sir.
02:48Mr. Lyons, will you apologize to the family of Renee Good for being called a domestic terrorist by the president and his leadership?
02:59No, sir.
03:00Why not?
03:02Sir, I welcome the opportunity to speak to the family in private, but I'm not going to comment on any active investigation.
03:07Is she a domestic terrorist?
03:10Sir, I'm not going to comment on the investigation.
03:13And the president and Secretary Nome are elected officials.
03:16That's your right to their comments.
03:18But as law enforcement, career law enforcement, we won't speak to any.
03:21Do you agree with their comments?
03:23Sir, I'm not going to go ahead and talk about any ongoing investigation.
03:26Will you apologize to the family of Alex Preddy for also being called a domestic terrorist?
03:30Sir, again, I'm not going to speak to any ongoing investigation.
03:35Mr. Lyons, you're staying to lead ICE is a decision.
03:40Sir, I'm sorry.
03:41You're staying on to lead ICE is a decision.
03:44And I've read your background.
03:46You have a decorated career.
03:48You've served in the military.
03:51You are what I would call otherwise employable.
03:54I think most people would agree this is not the only job that you can get.
03:59But since you've been on this job, women have been dragged by their hair through our streets.
04:06A six-year-old child battling stage four cancer has been deported.
04:10And it turns out he was a U.S. citizen.
04:13People are running through the fields where they work.
04:17People who've gone to the streets as allies have been shot and publicly executed.
04:22It's a decision to stay on at this point.
04:27And considering your honorable service in the past and the dishonorable acts that those who have worked for you have conducted
04:36and the disgraceful statements that the leadership above you have said,
04:40you now have a decision.
04:43Will you stand with the kids who you're supposed to protect?
04:47Or will you side with the killers bringing terror to our streets?
04:51Mr. Lyons, will you resign from ICE?
04:55No, sir, I won't.
04:56Why not?
04:57Because, sir, that child that you're showing right there,
04:59the men and women of ICE took care of him when his father abandoned him and ran from law enforcement.
05:03The gentleman's time has expired.
05:04You never should have gone into custody.
05:04The gentleman's time has expired.
05:06I recognize the gentleman from Mississippi.
05:07You guy.
05:07The gentleman is fine.
05:08You're welcome.
05:09The gentleman's time has expired.
05:10I believe in the
