So are they doing the right things in Minneapolis to get enforcement back on track?

Tom Holman got sent there.

Christine No, kind of stepping aside a little bit on that one.

Our friend Gates Garcia of We the People with Gates Garcia joins us now to make sense of the madness.

Let me start with this. What was your level of surprise when we had been told for a few days that this guy,

Prattie, was a combination of like the guy from the show ER saving lives every day,

or I guess the pit, which is the modern version of it, and Mother Teresa, because he's just

so selfless and kind. And that's what they tell us. And then this video comes out that he's

attacking ice officers a week before he gets shot, spitting at them, cursing at them, and acting

like a maniac. I mean, I guess it's the ones you never expect, Gates. No level of surprise,

because this is what the media has divulged into.

I mean, this is what social media has done to the viewership in this country.

whatever narrative they wanted, whether it's AI edited images of victims or suspects or whatever

they want to do.

But nowadays, with social media's ability to come right out and call the media to the mat in live time, we're able to see through cell phone videos who these people really are. So it's the same thing that happened with Renee Good. They immediately start putting out images of her where she looks beautiful and she's this wonderful mother and all that. And then we see the pictures where she's gone sort of through the woke transformation and shaved her head and all that.

It takes time for these things to happen, but it's no longer surprising when they do.
