Thanks to Elon Musk’s X, the Truth About Minneapolis ICE Shooting Spreads Fast: Greg Gutfeld [WATCH]

Fox News host Greg Gutfeld criticized the media and progressive political leadership for what he described as a deliberate effort to manufacture chaos by focusing on isolated moments without addressing the events that led up to them, arguing that the pattern has become familiar and increasingly ineffective as the public grows more informed.

Gutfeld said the media’s fixation on single flashpoint moments ignores the broader context that produces those incidents, allowing outlets to frame narratives that inflame unrest rather than explain it.

“I’m not even, I’m not interested in in the moment that everybody is focusing on. I think that is the mistake that we always make, is that we come upon something and we focus on the moment, but we don’t ask, how did we get George Floyd? How did we get Butler, Pennsylvania? How did we get Charlie Kirk? There’s a whole series of events that get you here,” Gutfeld said.

He argued that this approach is intentional and designed to shape public perception by omitting the causes that lead to high-profile incidents.

“The deliberate, the deliberate mistake the media makes is they ignore what leads to the moment, so they can seize the moment to create a narrative,” Gutfeld said.

According to Gutfeld, the outcome of this strategy is a city or community placed under tension, which he described as intentional rather than accidental.

“You have a city on edge, because that is the desired effect, the key word here, and it always is, is chaos, because chaos is what is desired the mind, okay, you want to see how this how we got here. Most of us know how we got here,” he said.

Gutfeld attributed the current situation to what he described as a deliberately encouraged migrant crisis, which he said was driven by financial and political motivations.

“There was a migrant crisis that was deliberately encouraged by our politicians, for reasons that were financial and political. Went crazy. Trump wins. We bring in ice agencies, ICE agents to fix this problem. They are villainized because they are fixing the problem,” Gutfeld said.

He said law enforcement agencies attempting to address the situation have been targeted by activists and politicians, contributing to further unrest.

“We have politicians and activists demonizing people trying to do their jobs, with protesters and rioters around to sow chaos, and they are organized and they are sponsored and paid for,” he said.

Gutfeld emphasized that the resulting disorder is not an unintended consequence, but the intended outcome.

“The desired effect is this. They want this. This is a success. Don’t do not be fooled by their emotion. This is how they do it. What do you expect? You amplify a directive that is designed to do one thing, which then becomes the rallying cry for more chaos,” he said.

He compared the cycle to past flashpoints that were used to ignite widespread unrest.

“You get the new Michael Brown, the new George Floyd, the New Kent State,” Gutfeld said.

Gutfeld warned that cities led by progressive mayors are especially vulnerable when unrest occurs, not because of specific policies, but because of how those leaders respond in moments of crisis.

“And this will be felt in cities, wherever there is a progressive Mayor getting Mamdani in, or whatever progressive Mayor you got. It’s not about the policies that I’m worried about. It’s about the side they take when the rubber hits the road. What side do they take when people start looting?” he said.

He referenced New York City as an example, criticizing progressive leadership during past unrest.

“We knew what happened in New York with what’s his face. I can’t even remember his name, Frankenstein. Yeah. So the downside of progressive mayors, besides their complete ineptitude, is that they will always fan the flames of chaos, because that’s the side that they choose,” Gutfeld said.

Gutfeld said the situation differs from previous years because the public is now more aware of how narratives are constructed and spread.

“But on a good on the good side is, I think we’re a different country than we were in 2020 we know how narratives work and why we aren’t going to let it happen again,” he said.

He credited social media and changes following Elon Musk’s purchase of Twitter, now known as X, for increasing transparency.

“Before you had a silent majority sitting by while cities burned in the name of oppression because identity politics paralyzed us. Ain’t happening anymore. Thanks. Elon Musk and X, we’re now seeing things as they happen. We know how the chaos unfolds. We know who is behind it. This is different,” Gutfeld said.

He argued that similar incidents would have unfolded very differently before those changes.

“And before Twitter, before Musk bought Twitter, this would be a different story. It would be another incendiary event, and it might still be in some cities, but I don’t think it’s going to be the case here,” he said.

Gutfeld concluded by saying debates over individual incidents should be left to the legal system, while his focus remains on the broader context behind them.

“So if you want to debate whether this shooting was justified or not, you can do that. But I don’t think that’s the story here, because that’s that’s for the courts to decide, that’s for the departments to decide, and whether the police officer made the right decision. I can’t I’m just a talking head, but I can tell you about the context. I can tell you that we warned you about this,” Gutfeld said.
