Officials Decry Federal Blockade of Minnesota Inquiry (Full Transcript)

[00:00:00] Speaker 1: It's very disheartening to me to see the president say Kristi Noem's doing a great job. I'm not sure there's been anybody more incompetent or cruel that's ever served in a cabinet position than her. And this is on her. And look, we need to know who these people were. We need these guys brought back here. We need...

[00:00:16] Speaker 2: Well, that's the thing. I mean, you know...

[00:00:17] Speaker 1: We showed up to do an investigation and we're not allowed onto the site.

[00:00:20] Speaker 2: In any normal situation, your state investigators would be on the scene, would be working the crime scene, would be in charge of or at least working with federal law enforcement.

[00:00:31] Speaker 1: And they've developed a trust of the people here and what they come up with. They don't make any judgments on it. They turn it over. A grand jury will then bring indictments.

[00:00:38] Speaker 2: Has Tom Homan made any indication that that'd be something...

[00:00:42] Speaker 1: He said he would call Kash Patel about it. I asked him. I said, that's one of our demands that this happen. I also said, you know, insult the injury. It's just like there's a cruelty that runs so deep it's hard to understand. They opened a federal investigation into Renee Good's wife. And that's still ongoing. And I said, look, you want to send some goodwill to the people of Minnesota, you need to drop that. But he indicated he would do that. I see the president say he might peel down a little bit when you deal with the president. And I said, I'm in a situation where people say, well, you've got to give him something. You've got to do something. Don't anger him or whatever. It's pretty hard not to be angry when your citizens are being shot. It's pretty hard to be angry when you see the amateurs out here, you know, wreaking havoc. And there's no purpose to this. And I think what's really important to tell Americans, Minnesotans believe in law and order. Minnesotans believe that we should have border control. Minnesotans believe in due process, though. And Minnesotans want to know, if you say you're going to get the worst of the worst, quit lying about who you're arresting. Tell us who you're arresting.
