SEN MULLIN: 'I deal with facts not assumptions.' | The Source With Kaitlan Collins

She obviously accelerated towards the agent that was in front of her. She was obviously given orders. This is not, you know, debatable. It's all on video out there. She was obviously given orders...and she decided to punch the gas and hit a federal officer. At that time, that vehicle becomes a weapon of lethal force, and the officer has the right to use lethal force. And so it's very cut and dry that the officer had that time. (05:34–05:46)
