00:00Michael in the back. Thank you, Caroline. An armed shooter today was shot in McAllen, Texas after opening fire on Border Patrol agents.
00:09It comes just days after Democratic Congresswoman Pramia Jayapal recently said she gets, quote, inspired when activists obstruct ICE.
00:17Does the White House expect Democrats to tone down their rhetoric in light of what we saw today in McAllen, Texas?
00:22We certainly call on Democrats to tone down their rhetoric against ICE and Border Patrol agents who, again,
00:29are everyday men and women. I would encourage AOC and other Democrats to actually meet with the United States Border Patrol.
00:36These are honorable Americans who are just simply trying to do their job to enforce the law.
00:40They go home to their families every night, just like we all do, and they deserve respect and dignity for trying to enforce our nation's immigration laws
00:48and to remove public safety threats from our communities. The White House is aware of the shooting that took place today in Texas,
00:56and we are working with the appropriate federal agencies to get to the bottom of what happened.
