Welcome one and all in here, out there, all around the world, to the Late Show.

Ladies and gentlemen, today, more than half of Americans are digging out from a massive winter storm.

Freezing temperatures from Texas all the way up to Maine.

I want to thank everyone here who stood outside in the cold today before you came in.

On Saturday, only 17 days after Renee Good was shot and killed by an ICE agent, another American citizen was shot and killed by Customs and Border Protection agents.

And again, Trump administration officials immediately blamed the victim, calling him a domestic terrorist.

But videos appear to contradict federal accounts of the shooting.

That analysis was from the New York Times, and they weren't alone.

They were joined by NBC News, PBS News, Reuters, the Washington Post, and

the Wall Street Journal, as well as your own Eyes and Ears magazine.

The man who was shot and killed by CBP was named Alex Preddy.

And the administration is making a big deal out of the fact that Preddy was legally carrying a handgun.

But as you can see in all the videos, he never pulled out or brandished that gun.

Now, I'm not going to play you that video.

You've all seen it, and if you haven't seen it, it's because you didn't want to.

At first, Mr. Preddy appears to be filming the scene with his phone and directing traffic.

An agent begins shoving the demonstrators and squirts pepper spray at their faces.

Preddy moves to help one of the protesters who was sprayed as other agents approach and pull him from behind.

Several agents tussle with Mr. Preddy before bringing him to his knees.

He appears to resist as the agents grab his legs, push down on his back, and

An agent crouches down, reaches toward Preddy and lifts a gun from Preddy's back near his waistband.

Another agent unholsters his gun at virtually the same moment and points it at Preddy's back at close range.

Two other agents open fire, shooting him in the back as he lays on the ground.

At least 10 shots were fired, killing him.

Masked government agents disarmed an American citizen and then executed him in the streets.

Noem was asked about the video, and here's how she lied this time.

Video appears to show he's disarmed before shots are fired.

I want you to not distract away from the facts of this situation.

Not distract away from the facts of this situation.

They want you to believe that something didn't happen when we all saw it happen with our own eyes.

It's like claiming that Alan Cumming doesn't serve looks on the traitors when there's plenty of evidence that he feeds us every damn week, mama.

Over on the CNN head of the Border Patrol Greg Bevino had a unique take on this tragedy.

With respect, it feels as though in some ways you're blaming the victim here.

The victims are the border patrol agents.

I'm not blaming the border patrol agents.

Masked secret police shooting innocent people with impunity in the streets are not victims.

The only way they could ever even be considered close to victims is that they are at best weak minded individuals full of anger who have been led to the darkness by Donald Trump and are now participating in an evil system that will stick to them like hot black tar for the rest of their lives.

I'd cook at home from now fellas because no meal will ever go unspit upon.

Look Dana, they're trying to portray Border patrol agents and ICE agents as Gestapo, Nazi and many other words.

Yes, do not compare ICE or border patrol agents to the Nazis.

The Nazis were willing to show their faces.

The victim, Alex Preddy was 37 years old and a nurse at the city's VA Hospital who had no criminal record.

DHS did not even inform Preddy's family of their son's death.

Instead his parents first learned of the shooting when they were called by Associated Press reporter.

Later that day the family released this we are heartbroken but also very angry.

Alex was a kind hearted soul who cared deeply for his family and friends and also the American veterans who he cared for.

As an ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA Hospital.

Alex wanted to make a difference in the world.

Unfortunately he will not be with us to see his impact.

I do not throw around the hero term lightly however his last thought and act was to protect a woman.

The sickening lies told about our son by the administration are reprehensible and disgusting.

Alex is clearly not holding a gun when attacked by Trump's murdering and cowardly ICE thugs.

He has his phone in his right hand and his empty left hand is raised above his head while trying to protect the woman.

Well, the truth is Preddy was on the front lines of the COVID 19 pandemic and a beloved mentor to nurses, stepping into the intimidating environment of the intensive care unit.

His colleagues say he was the kind of nurse patients remembered.

This administration has no idea the mistake they just made.

They're underpaid, overworked, and they're the ones who have to deal with Dr. Rabi's inner demons.

You stupid old men really want to cross the people in charge in putting in your catheters?

Believe me, they can do it the lubricated way or the unlubricated way.

And this weekend, Kristi Noem announced that the DHS will be leading the Border Patrol shooting investigation in Minneapolis.

But the outcry at that announcement was so huge that today it was announced the FBI will also lead the probe into Alex Preddy.

Do you know how awful you have to be for people to go?

We'd be a lot more comfortable if Cash Patel were involved here.

Trump knows exactly who's to blame for Preddy's death.

Last night he posted Democrats are putting illegal alien criminals over tax paying law abiding citizens and they have created dangerous circumstances for everyone involved.

Got to point out your anti immigrant thugs are the one killing tax paying, law abiding citizens and Americans won't stand for it because we have read our country's user agreements.

We have read our country's user agreement, the Declaration of Independence.

Governments derive their just powers from the consent of the governed.

Whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or abolish it.

Those, those, those right there, those might be the most important words of our founding documents.

The Trump administration wants to paint the protesters in Minnesota as violent so they can justify further violence against them.

Which is why it is so powerful and so beautiful to see the way Minnesotans are responding to these provocations.
