U.S. Sen. Tina Smith (D-Minn.) recently expressed frustration at the Wednesday shooting of a Minneapolis widow and mother by ICE agents.
Faced with the street-side murder of Renee Nicole Good, who was shot in the face and killed by a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent, Smith delivered a disgusted response to President Donald Trump’s insistence on putting his hands on the state of Minnesota.
“I wish they would just leave us the f—— alone,” Smith told reporters. “I mean, seriously ... When do things stop being about politics and start being about actual human decency?"
Mere hours after agents killed Good, DHS Secretary Kristi Noem — fresh from an appearance in which she wore tactical law enforcement gear — was publicly sliming Good as a “domestic terrorist” and trying to claim Good threatened the lives of ICE agents while appearing to flee in her vehicle.
Trump, meanwhile, posted on Truth Social that “The woman screaming was, obviously, a professional agitator, and the woman driving the car was very disorderly, obstructing and resisting, who then violently, willfully, and viciously ran over the ICE Officer, who seems to have shot her in self defense.”
Smith, however, just wanted Trump to remove himself and his administration from Minnesota.
“We can hypothesize on what their political reasons are but meanwhile a woman died being shot in her car and everything they’re doing is making it worse,” Smith said.
