It takes15 mins to get to my friend. She knows this She's literally just called me asking if I could meet her at 8:30 I've only just got up and made some coffee, not even had a shower. She couldn't grasp why that was a problem as I had a 'whole 30 minutes to do that'

Usuals on the other side on about second-guessing a split second decision by a police officer. In a dangerous situation and you are - A soldier. Your instinct may be to shoot because you've been trained to kill people. A police officer. You should get out of the way because you shouldn't have been

@realDonald Trump

I have just viewed the clip of the event which took place in Minneapolis, Minnesota. It is a horrible thing to watch. The woman screaming was, obviously, a professional agitator, and the woman driving the car was very disorderly, obstructing and resisting, who then violently, willfully, and viciously ran over the ICE Officer, who seems to have shot her in self defense. Based on the attached clip, it is hard to believe he is alive, but is now recovering in the hospital. The situation is being studied, in its entirety, but the reason these incidents are happening is because the Radical Left is threatening, assaulting, and targeting our Law Enforcement Officers and ICE Agents on a daily basis. They are just trying to do the job of MAKING AMERICA SAFE. We need to stand by and protect our Law Enforcement Officers from this Radical Left Movement of Violence and Hate!

Today, in an act of domestic terrorism, an anti-ICE rioter weaponized her vehicle against law enforcement. Our officer relied on his training and saved his own life, as well as the lives of his fellow officers.

Sanctuary politicians have created an environment that encourages rampant assaults on law enforcement.

@POTUS Trump and @Sec_Noem will always have the backs of law enforcement.
