Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News
Thursday, February 12, 2026

Agent Charles Exum is at the wheel, and he can be seen turning sharply left towards the woman's car. The SUV creases the passenger side of the woman's car in what would barely qualify as a fender bender in other circumstances. Be advised, we've been struck! We've been struck!" one of the agents announces over the air. Exum pulls over and, in one smooth move, he slid from behind the steering wheel in his combat attire and drew his handgun. He was not so much enforcing the law as following a script that began with the Trump administration's fiction that its immigration agencies are defending the homeland against an invading horde of murderers, rapists, and pedophiles. He does not appear to have said anything as he fired five times. Here was cosplay for real, involving actual bullets. "Shots fired! Shots fired! We need backup!" one of the agents announces.

What appears to be a supervisor arrives. The agents report Exum had fired in self-defense. "She tried to run him over," one of the agents tells him. They report that the woman "took off." The supervisor was asked if she had been hit. "I have no idea," one of the agents says. The body cam footage records the arrival of a Chicago police supervisor, along with several uniformed cops. He asks the agents if there was body camera footage. The one agent's body camera is still on and records the reply. "No."

@#5 Oooh, an internal DoJ investigation.
