Homeland Security reveals a key new detail from the fatal ICE shooting in Minneapolis as six federal prosecutors resign over the case.
If they feel the need to resign because of orders they have gotten.
That is a great statement on their part that this is not tolerable by them. Plus, Minnesota Governor Tim Walsh faces impeachment charges.
I'm Georgia Howe with Daily Wire executive editor, John Bickley. It's Thursday Day, January 15th, and this is Morning Wire.
We are willing to work with people when it's about murder and when it's about crime, but the truth is that this ain't about that.
As Minneapolis officials double down on their anti-ice agenda, the agency ups the ante in the city.
And the House Oversight Committee moves to hold the Clintons in contempt over the Epstein investigation.
It's unfortunate that Clinton's didn't show because this was a bipartisan.
Thanks for waking up with Morning Wire. Stay tuned. We have the news you need to know.

New information has come to light on the condition of the ICE agent involved in the shooting of Renee Good. Meanwhile, prosecutors tasked with looking into Good's activist background, keep leaving the Justice Department.
Here to talk more about the latest in the investigation is Daily Wire reporter, Tim pierce. So, Tim, we have some new information about this agent's health status after being struck by Goods car. What have we learned?
Well, according to the Department of Homeland Security, Goods' vehicle struck the ICE agent hard enough to cause some amount of internal bleeding. Secretary Noem had previously said that the officer was hospitalized after the incident and then released later that same day, but she never said the extent of the officer's injuries. We also learned on Tuesday that the agent and his family have gone into hiding. Here's where Tom Homan on the podcast, Will Caine Country on that. There are wanted posters with his picture, his license plate number, and the death threats against him and his family. According to NBC News, some of the agent's neighbors saw people with moving boxes at the agent's house last week. The attention on the agent after the Good shooting has been so significant that even some of the neighbors have talked about temporarily leaving the neighborhood until it all settles down. And while the controversy over this ICE involved shooting is still burning, there was another ICE involved shooting last night in Minneapolis. According to Homeland Security, the ICE officer was struggling with a suspected illegal alien when two more people ambushed and hit the officer with a shovel. The original suspect joined the attack, and the officer was forced to fire defensive shots hitting the original suspect in the leg.
Both the suspect and officer were hospitalized, and the other two assailants were taken into custody. The incident, of course, drew police and a large crowd of protesters. This was after Minnesota Governor Tim Walls made an address last night and called for protests against ICE.
Let's be very, very clear. This long ago stopped being a matter of immigration enforcement. Instead, it's a campaign of organized brutality against the people of Minnesota by our own federal government.
Now, on a related note, the investigation itself into this incident in the state of Minnesota has become very controversial. We've heard reports that some of the Justice Department officials that are in charge of investigating this have now resigned. What do we know?
Reports say that at least half a dozen prosecutors have resigned from the Minneapolis US Attorney's office. All of them were assigned to investigate the Renee Good incident. The resignations even included Assistant US attorney, Joe Thompson, who led the prosecution of the Feeding Our Future cases that implicated dozens from the Twin Cities Somali community. According to the New York Times, Thompson objected to limits placed on the case to not investigate whether the shooting was lawful, nor to include state law enforcement in the investigation. Instead, the investigation has in part focused on Good's ties to activist groups that aim to disrupt ICE operations. According to several reports, the ICE watch groups that Good and her wife joined monitor ICE's movements and attempt to warn people, presumably illegal aliens who would have been picked up by ICE, that agents are in an area. But sometimes those activities border on what could be obstruction of federal law enforcement. Activists like Good have gotten in the way of federal agents carrying out raids or arrests.
Well, and on top of that, we're now seeing a barrage of threats toward ICE agents, so It's become a pretty risky job. Pivoting to Tim Walsh, he now is facing articles of impeachment. Who brought those?
Yeah, a group of state Republican lawmakers say that Walsh should be impeached over the vast amount of fraud that has taken place in Minnesota under his watch. State Representative Mike Wiener told Newsweek that since Walsh said the buck stops with him, he should have resigned immediately. And since he hasn't, Wiener said, The next step is impeachment. Our taxpayers are demanding this, and if Democrats don't support the impeachment, they are complicit with the fraud. There are four articles of impeachment so far, all relating to the fraud scandal and accusing Walsh of intentionally covering it up for political calculations. But the chances of this effort actually succeeding are pretty slim since the impeachment effort can't really move forward without support from Democrats.
Well, a long shot, but certainly it is huge damage to Walls' reputation. Tim, thanks for reporting. Thanks for having me.

Tensions on the streets continue to remain high in Minneapolis. But ICE is still pushing forward on carrying out its mission. Daily WIRE immigration reporter, Jennie Tear, is on the ground there in the city with the latest and actually wrote along with ICE on Wednesday. Hey, Jennie, so about your ride along, were there any moments you felt like things might spin out of control like they did last week.
There were absolutely moments where I felt like things were just going to go haywire within a split second because you had these agitators who were driving in in the way of those officers. They were swerving almost directly into them, I mean, from my view. And it happened just within a blink of an eye. I've never seen anything like this. I've been on many ridealongs with ICE. I've covered this issue for years. And this situation is like nothing I've ever seen. Just again, how organized they are, how they're going out and using different tools to expose the whereabouts of ICE, but then get in their way. They're making these arrests of agitators daily now. This is becoming a regular thing. So while they're making arrests of people who are here illegally, who have criminal records, they're also trying to get these people charged and off the streets who are impeding in their operations, who are assaulting them in some cases. They're also trying to really de-escalate these situations. They're giving these people the opportunity to step away, to move. They're giving them verbal orders before things escalate. And in reality, they're trying to just get out of the way of these agitators.
They're trying to move on to their next target and not cause anything to really boil over. But these agitators continue to follow them, continue to move people around the city to show up where they're going to be next. So it's a very intense situation, a very organized, well-communicated operation. I even met a guy here who was 3D printing whistles and handing them out. He had 50 that he had printed today. All of them were gone by this afternoon. Handed out to those agitators who are then going out to where ICE is making arrests, blowing those whistles so that they're alerting everyone around that ICE is here. And then people aren't coming out of their homes. They're not leaving their workplaces. They're not going out so that ICE won't arrest them.
So is the city effectively shut down in some areas?
Yeah. Some of the protesters said that they actually haven't been able to work. There was a bartender who works a lot of different events in the city, and he said tons of events have been canceled, so he really can't go to work. There's no reason to go and bartend at these events right now. And they were very upset about that. They're saying that ICE is really causing these parts of the city to shut down. We know that there were school closures last week after the shooting. But yes, it's really affecting life here. Again, agitators out in the streets, they're out in the community. So when we were riding along with ICE, we saw just the extent of this. When ICE is out there, and they're driving to, let's say, an apartment complex where we were trying to make an arrest, trying to go knock on the door of their target that day who is supposed to be deported from this country. And what What happens is you have agitators starting to follow them behind their cars very closely. And then while that's happening, you start to see these agitators forming on each corner of the street, really surrounding these neighborhoods.
And again, with those whistles, they're blowing, they're honking their horns. And then once the ICE agents are getting out of their car, they're standing right across from them. They're yelling really nasty things at them. But those ICE agents, at the same time, it's like water off their back. They're walking into those arrest sites. They're going into that apartment complex, for example, where we were. They're knocking on the door, and they're trying to get their target to come out to be able to effectuate an arrest. They're up against a lot, but they're still going out there. Now, we didn't see any of those arrests being made. None of those people came out. I think that's really the story here is that you have ICE agents who are out there trying to make arrests, who are trying to continue this despite all this pushback. Now, teams were out there in other areas of the city, other federal teams, because we know this is a larger effort. There's about 3,000 federal agents that have been deployed. So they're out there. There were a lot of arrests made outside of that. But it just shows you what these officers are up against.
Well, we've all seen how quickly these things escalate, so we're glad you came back safely from that right along with ICE. Jennie, thank you so much for reporting.
Thank you.
Bill and Hillary Clinton are refusing to comply with a subpoena in the House Oversight Committee's investigation into Jeffrey Epstein.
Daily Wire political reporter, Cameron Arquand has more. So, Cameron, what are the Clintons saying?
So in a very lengthy statement posted earlier this week, they said that they are not planning on complying with the subpoena given by the House Oversight Committee, cite the current political climate, saying that this is about right versus wrong. They've also said and claimed that their attorneys have found that these subpoenas are legally invalid. So they're willing to fight this battle right now. And it's obviously blown up and is considered very controversial, given how high profile both of them are.
Now, can you just ignore a subpoena or claim that it's illegal? What are the consequences for doing this?
So there could be potentially major consequences for the Clintons in this regard. As House Oversight Committee Chair, James Comer has said that he does plan to hold them in contemptive Congress. Over this. So here's what he had to say.
Well, here we are again. I don't think it's any secret. Former Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, joined her husband in defying a bipartisan lawful Congressional subpoena to show up today. I think what's most disappointing to the Oversight Committee is the fact that we have, in good faith, negotiated with the Clinton's attorneys for five months.
So obviously, when something like this happens, we could potentially We see criminal charges filed against the Clinton's in this regard. People have served jail time for this before for not willing to give a deposition. And something that Comer has said repeatedly is, just because we're asking you to give a deposition and we sent this in on a bipartisan basis, does not mean that there's necessarily any evidence of wrongdoing in this regard. They're simply using this as a vehicle to get answers to questions they have regarding Jeffrey Epstein, as we saw many of those files released last year.
Now, what's the political reaction to this, Ben? Are they getting support from Democrats?
Well, their lengthy statement on social media did cause a lot of Democrats to rally around them. They see this as an act of resistance to the Republicans in Congress and the Trump administration. But one thing that Comer has argued is this was a bipartisan process, especially given that there was such bipartisan interest in the Epstein files and into this ongoing Epstein probe. Here's what he had to say the other day about what we could expect next week.
When Bill Clinton was President, Jeffrey Epstein went to the White House 17 times, and then post-presidentcy, Bill Clinton flew on Jeffrey Epstein's plane at least 27 times. So that shows they were close. Again, no one's accusing Bill Clinton of any wrongdoing. We just have questions. The Democrats in Congress, they've gone full war mode on trying to get people in to talk about Epstein. But when it came to Bill Clinton, initially, the Democrats voted for the subpoena, and they said, Yeah, we want to from Bill Clinton, too. They didn't even come to the deposition, and they're all running and evading reporters who, quite surprisingly, the mainstream media has been pretty critical that Bill Clinton didn't show up for this subpoena.
But like you said, a lot of bipartisan interest in getting to the bottom of this. So Hopefully, they will take the stand. Cameron, thanks for reporting.
Thank you.
