Big Tech CEOs' tortured statements on ICE in Minnesota show an industry captured by Trump
"On the morning of January 24 in downtown Minneapolis, an ICE agent shot and killed protester Alex Pretti, an ICU nurse at a local Veterans Affairs hospital. Just 2 miles away, on January 7, another ICE agent had shot and killed Nicole Renee Good, a mother. The deaths mark the first times during Donald Trump's second term that ICE agents have fired in anger and killed publicly verified U.S. citizens."
"Google CEO Sundar Pichai, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella, and Amazon founder Jeff Bezos have so far said nothing on the matter. X CEO Elon Musk earlier tweeted that Renee Good had " almost killed " ICE agent Jonathan Ross before Ross shot and killed her on January 7. On the same day as Pretti's fatal shooting on Saturday, January 24, Apple CEO Tim Cook attended a VIP screening of the new (Amazon-funded) Melania Trump documentary at the White House."

Major tech CEOs including Sundar Pichai, Mark Zuckerberg, Satya Nadella, and Jeff Bezos issued no public statements. Elon Musk tweeted that Renee Good had 'almost killed' an ICE agent before the shooting. Tim Cook attended a White House screening and later urged 'de-escalation.' AI company leaders have been the most vocal.
