Charge Walz and Frey for Inciting Attacks on ICE Agents: Minnesota State Rep [WATCH]

Minnesota state Rep. Walter Hudson and broadcaster Grant Stinchfield discussed the actions of Minnesota politicians Jacob Frey and Tim Walz, accusing them of inciting violence against law enforcement and arguing they should face federal charges.

The exchange focused on rhetoric surrounding Immigration and Customs Enforcement operations and a recent incident in which a woman attempted to run over a federal officer.

Hudson said Frey and Walz, along with other Democrats, have explicitly encouraged assaults on law enforcement and should be held legally accountable.

“Listen, Jacob Frey, Tim Walz, these guys should be brought up on federal charges. There’s no doubt. And not just them. We have Democrats across the nation, and particularly here in Minnesota, who have been explicitly inciting assaults on law enforcement,” Hudson said.

Hudson rejected the idea that political disagreement with law enforcement agencies justifies confrontation or obstruction, citing the incident involving a vehicle blocking federal officers.

“And I don’t like you, don’t get to hide behind the fact that you politically disagree with the mission of a law enforcement agency and say, well, that totally justifies me Sicking random people on them and supporting the organized crime of tracking them and calling people to come confront them, and this vehicle was obviously obstructing a federal law enforcement officer. They get out. They confront her. What else are they supposed to do? Just surrender, go home, get the f out, as Jacob Frey says, absolute nonsense,” Hudson said.

He argued that without legal consequences for public officials who engage in such rhetoric, the situation will continue.

“And until there are real, painful consequences, legal consequences for this type of incitement for public officials. We’re going to continue to see it,” Hudson said.

Stinchfield said compliance with police commands is critical for safety and said the individual involved had opportunities to avoid the confrontation.

“I want to just give everybody out there a real easy tip. If you obey commands of a police officer, you will have a 100% chance of survival. She had every opportunity to obey commands. She clearly tried to run that officer over let me play you Jacob fry again because he went on in his news conference. Cut five guys,” Stinchfield said.

A video clip of Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey was then played.

“They are not here to cause safety in this city. What they are doing is not to provide safety in America. What they are doing is causing chaos and distrust. They’re ripping families apart. They’re sowing chaos on our streets, and, in this case, quite literally killing people,” Frey said.

Stinchfield questioned Hudson about the legality of ICE operations and asked whether agents had broken any laws.

“Representative Hudson, I would like to ask you, you’re in Minnesota, have ICE agents there broken any laws? I mean, I get the left. May disagree with the idea of rounding up illegal aliens, but they’re here illegally. I think any reasonable person would say, Hey, you’re still enforcing the rule of law. Have the ICE agents done anything illegal? In your mind? Have you seen them do anything to get the comments from Jacob Frey that literally dehumanizes these ICE agents. I think people engage in violence against them,” Stinchfield said.

Hudson said he has seen no evidence of illegal conduct by ICE agents and said the real issue is rhetoric from elected officials leading to crimes against federal officers.

“Yeah, I’ve seen nothing to indicate that ICE is acting illegally. Quite the contrary, I see tons of folks incited by the rhetoric of elected officials in our state committing objective crimes,” Hudson said.

He said obstructing or assaulting federal law enforcement carries severe penalties.

“It is a federal crime to obstruct federal law enforcement, you can on a high enough level, if you try, if you assault something and cause great bodily harm like this lady tried to do, that’ll put you in prison for 20 years. That’s a felony, and you have our elected officials, Jacob Frey and Governor Walz in our state, inciting that explicitly,” Hudson said.
