GOP Senator Suggests Dems Wanted ICE to Kill Protesters Like Renee Good, Alex Pretti: They Got Their Martyrs'
"They're showing up with semi-automatic pistols with additional ammunition clips. So again, you have to understand, Democrats are trying to neuter ICE's ability to enforce our immigration laws. That is the Democrat position here. They wanted open borders. They threw the borders wide open. We've got millions of people flooding in here, including 650,000 immigrants convicted of crimes including murder and homicide, and I have a great deal of sympathy for anybody trying to clean up that mess."
"Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) has implied his Democratic colleagues wanted ICE to kill protesters so they could be elevated as martyrs for their cause. Johnson joined CNBC on Tuesday morning for a conversation largely focused on Congress's struggles to pass a new funding bill. Democrats have opposed Republican proposals over funding for the Department of Homeland Security and more specifically, ICE."
Ron Johnson implied Democrats wanted ICE to kill protesters to elevate them as martyrs. He connected Democratic opposition to Republican funding proposals for the Department of Homeland Security and ICE to a broader push for open borders. Johnson claimed agents face trained activists carrying semi-automatic pistols and extra ammunition clips and argued ICE lacks training for such threats. He cited millions of migrants entering the country, including about 650,000 with criminal convictions. Johnson referenced the fatal shooting of Alex Pretti by ICE agents and the earlier death of Renee Good, called Pretti's death horrific, and blamed organizers and elected officials for encouraging dangerous confrontations and producing martyrs.
