Conservative Scott Jennings rebuts Kristi Noem’s statement on Minneapolis shooting

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem is being criticized for her quick announcement that a woman shot by ICE agents in Minneapolis on Wednesday was a "domestic terrorist."

Before any investigation had been done, Noem, who was in Texas at the time, announced that the agents seen driving down a one-way street were "stuck in the snow."

"They were attempting to push out their vehicle and a woman attacked them and those surrounding them and attempted to run them over and ram them with her vehicle," said Noem.

Speaking about it on Thursday morning, conservative Scott Jennings, a supporter of President Donald Trump, agreed that Noem was wrong.

CNN's John Berman asked Jennings whether Noem needed to make the statement she did.

"Probably not," Jennings confessed. "But that doesn't mean she shouldn't go out and defend the ICE agent. It doesn't mean that I wouldn't expect DHS to defend their agents who are routinely under attack around the country."

He went on to criticize the woman, who has been identified as a 37-year-old mother Renee Nicole Good, saying that she shouldn't have been blocking the road. The woman appears to have been denied medical attention from a doctor at the scene.
