"Especially if there's been a shocking tragedy. And there's been another. This morning in Minneapolis, a 37-year-old woman was shot and killed by an ICE agent in front of her neighbors. Homeland Security Secretary Noem claimed the slain woman committed an act of domestic terrorism and says the agent acted in self-defense. The mayor of Minneapolis watched the videotape of the killing and said that claim is, and I quote, Bullsh*t.."
"What we're seeing is the consequences of governance designed to generate fear, headlines, and conflict. Donald Trump and his administration may not care much about Minnesota. That's been pretty evident. But we love this state. We won't let them tear us apart. We'll not turn against each other. To Americans, I ask you this. Please stand with Minneapolis."
A 37-year-old woman, Renee Good, was shot and killed by a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent in Minneapolis in a widely watched incident. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and President Trump labeled the woman a domestic terrorist and defended the agent's actions. Video footage and police statements contradicted the government's narrative. Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey publicly rejected the government's account, and Governor Tim Walz criticized the administration's approach and urged Americans to stand with Minneapolis. Late-night host Stephen Colbert canceled his usual cold open to solemnly address the killing and highlight officials' rebukes.
