Lemon LIVE at 5 | SHOCKING New Minneapolis ICE Shooting Video Released!

Jolly Good Ginger, a former military weapons instructor, and Don Lemon assert that the ICE agent's actions in the Minneapolis shooting directly violated Department of Justice (DOJ) and Department of Homeland Security (DHS) use-of-force policies. These policies prohibit firing into a moving vehicle unless the occupant poses a deadly threat by means other than the vehicle itself (e.g., a separate weapon) or if there's no other reasonable means of defense, including moving out of the vehicle's path. The video evidence shows the victim's car turning away and no other weapon, and the agent was able to move out of the path, rendering the shooting unjustified under these guidelines.

Jolly Good Ginger references DOJ policy 1-16.0000, specifically 1-16.2000, which states firearms may not be discharged solely to disable moving vehicles or at a moving vehicle unless a person in the vehicle is threatening with deadly force by means other than the vehicle, or the vehicle threatens death/serious injury and no other defense exists (including moving out of path). The video shows the agent's feet positioned away from the SUV, and the car's wheels turning right, away from the agent, as she drove off. The victim also stated, 'I'm not mad at you, dude,' indicating no imminent threat.

The hosts argue that the administration's claims, including President Trump's assertion that the officer was 'brave' and hit by the SUV, are contradicted by comprehensive video footage. Analysis of multiple angles, including the agent's own cell phone video, reveals the agent was not run over but rather slammed his hand on the car, and his feet were positioned away from the vehicle. This deliberate misrepresentation is framed as an attempt to gaslight the public and justify an unlawful killing.

The New York Times footage, synchronized with the agent's cell phone video, shows the agent standing to the left of the SUV with its wheels pointing right, away from him, at the moment of firing. The 'grainy, low-resolution footage' often cited by officials is shown to be misleading when synchronized with clearer angles. Trump's 'Teimu tweet' about the officer surviving is cited as an example of promoting a distorted narrative.

Don Lemon and Jolly Good Ginger characterize ICE as an 'out-of-control, unregulated, untrained, undisciplined, unprofessional, rag tag private army' operating with 'absolute immunity' granted by the administration. They contend that ICE agents are actively terrorizing communities, escalating situations with peaceful protesters, and even kidnapping US citizens based on appearance or accent, thereby undermining constitutional rights and posing a significant threat to American democracy.

Jolly Good Ginger details an incident where ICE agents shot tear gas and pepper bullets at 20-30 peaceful protesters outside the Whipple Federal Building without prior interaction. He also recounts a specific instance where a US citizen with an accent was 'kidnapped' by masked ICE agents in front of Home Depot because he 'couldn't prove his citizenship' and 'has an accent.'
