Must-See: JD Vance gets nightmare news from top Democrat - Brian Tyler Cohen

INTERVIEW: Pennsylvania governor Josh Shapiro slams Trump & Vance’s response to ICE shooting.

Governor Josh Shapiro discussed several key topics in this interview:

Minneapolis ICE Shooting Incident
• Condemned the fatal shooting by an ICE agent in Minneapolis, expressing sympathy for the victim's family
• Criticized the Trump administration for defending the agent and spreading misinformation about the incident
• Highlighted that the federal government is refusing to cooperate with state investigators, undermining the ability to ensure justice
• Rejected JD Vance's claim of "absolute immunity" for ICE agents, stating no one can act with impunity under the rule of law
• Raised concerns about ICE agents operating masked, which violates Pennsylvania's strict rules and breeds community mistrust

Law Enforcement and Public Safety
• Emphasized his administration's success in building trust between police and communities, resulting in:
◦ 42% reduction in gun violence in Pennsylvania
◦ 12% reduction in violent crime
• Praised Philadelphia's handling of peaceful protests following the Minneapolis incident as an example of proper coordination between law enforcement and communities
• Expressed concern that federal intervention could undermine state efforts and inject chaos into communities

2026 Reelection Campaign
Governor Shapiro announced his reelection bid with priorities including:
• Continuing record investments in public education
• Further reducing crime
• Growing Pennsylvania's economy (currently the only growing economy in the Northeast)
• Cutting taxes and reducing financial burdens on residents
• If Democrats win the legislature: raising minimum wage to $15/hour, holding electric companies accountable, and passing LGBTQ protections

Electoral Strategy
• Noted he's won three statewide races by appealing to Democrats, Republicans, and independents
• Identified four competitive U.S. House seats in Pennsylvania that could determine control of Congress
• Reported significant "buyer's remorse" among Trump voters, particularly farmers hurt by tariffs and rural residents losing healthcare access
• Emphasized his approach of showing up, listening, and delivering results across all communities

Redistricting
• Acknowledged the national redistricting battle but stated his focus remains on winning the 2026 midterms rather than hypothetical redistricting scenarios
• Emphasized Pennsylvania's four competitive House seats could be decisive if redistricting efforts elsewhere cancel out

The interview concluded with lighthearted banter about NFL teams, with Shapiro defending both the Eagles and Steelers while playfully ribbing the Brian about the Giants' poor season.
