00:00I want to ask you about an incident that took place this week in New York. It was in Marble
00:04Hill. A man by the name of Oscar Belgao was he was in a car that was shot at by
00:10ICE officers. Here is how Mayor Mom Donnie initially characterized this incident. Listen to this.
00:16Here's what we know. ICE agents surrounded the man's vehicle before opening fire. They wore construction vests and masks that
00:25concealed their faces. There was no reasonable way to identify them as ICE agents.
00:32That's how we characterized it. Oscar is now recovering. What happened in this case?
00:39Well, here's what I know. Because of Governor Holko and Mayor Mondami's sanctuary city policies, this person, along with thousands
00:48of others, were arrested by local police, but they didn't honor detainers.
00:52So they released them back on the street to, you know, recommit crimes against the citizens of that city and
00:58state.
00:59So if we would have had access to him when he was originally arrested by NYPD, none of this would
01:06have happened.
01:06But they need to understand, I told him and Governor Holko both, let us in the jail.
01:12We can arrest the bad guy, the criminal, in the safety and security of a jail.
01:17It's safer for the community. It's safer for the officer. It's safer for the alien because anything can happen in
01:23the street arrest.
01:24Bad things happen. But they choose to release them. And when they release them, what happens?
01:28We send a whole team to find them. And things like this, these tragedies happen.
01:32But the men and women of ICE perform, they perform exactly as they were trained.
01:37This man tried to run an officer over. He feared for his life, so he took action.
01:43And now this person's in custody. He'll be charged with a federal crime of assaulting a federal law enforcement officer.
01:50But many of these instances could be avoided if they simply give us access to the bad guy in the
01:57safety and security of a jail rather than release him in the community.
02:00I want you to listen to this. So after Mayor Momdani characterized the incident that way, he called for action
02:05with regard to ICE.
02:06Listen to this.
02:08We want ICE out of our city, ICE out of our schools, ICE out of our hospitals, ICE out of
02:13our streets, ICE away from our kids.
02:15We want that because we want to keep the city safe. We do not need them to do so. All
02:20they do is terrorize the city.
02:22I mean, wow, that sounds dangerously close to abolish ICE.
02:28Well, look, these people haven't changed. The same people that opened the border up, brought millions of people in the
02:32country, never apologized for it.
02:34They haven't changed. Now they want to abolish the agencies in charge of finding the boarding room.
02:39I don't know what color this guy is in the Dami's world, but ICE isn't going anywhere.
02:44We're going to be in New York City. We're going to be in New York State. We're going to keep
02:47enforcing law.
02:48That's why President Trump's in the Oval Office. The American people voted for a secure border, most secure border in
02:54history of the nation now, and they voted to enforce immigration law.
02:58That's exactly what we're going to do in New York City and every other sanctuary city.
03:03So he can scream and yell all he wants. He's not going to stop us from doing this job.
03:08You know, God bless the men and women of ICE.
03:10I want people to know they attack ICE officers all the time.
03:13ICE officers, let's remember, they're moms and dads too.
03:16They don't hang their heart on a hook when they go to work.
03:19They have to put a gun on their hip and wear a Kevlar vest to do their job.
03:24And a lot of the attacks that are happening, people don't want to comply with ICE and why?
03:28You got people like Mondomai and Hochul saying ICE isn't a real law enforcement agency.
03:32Here's how you can invade them. Don't open your door.
03:35They call ICE racists and the Nazis.
03:38So they have emboldened people not to comply with federal law enforcement.
03:42I said this from day one. This hateful rhetoric is going to result in bloodshed.
03:46It's sad. It's unfortunate. I don't want to see any bloodshed. I don't want to see any tragedies.
03:50But this hateful rhetoric convinces that small percentage of crazies on the left.
03:55It's okay to not comply. It's okay to put hands on ICE officers.
04:00It's okay to try to run them over. And it's not.
04:03The men and women of ICE are patriots.
04:04They're going to keep doing this job in New York City and every other city across this country.
04:09So we're going to keepacer.
04:09Gracias.
