He breaks down a viral confrontation outside a federal courthouse, calling out media spin that downplays agitator behavior and rewrites what’s plainly visible on video. Mike also traces how Democrats once openly supported deporting criminal illegals before flipping into outright hostility toward ICE under Trump. The episode argues the outrage isn’t about enforcement tactics—it’s about refusing to accept the election outcome and the rule of law.

He zeroes in on Ilhan Omar’s comments, arguing they ignore clear video evidence and undermine basic law enforcement reality.

He frames the moment as a test of whether the right will stay grounded in facts while continuing to defend law and order under constant political pressure.
