Overview
- White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt called The Hill’s Niall Stanage a “left-wing hack” after he questioned claims that ICE is “doing everything correctly.”
- Leavitt said DHS accounts show the agent acted in self-defense during a targeted operation, asserting he was ambushed and injured before firing his weapon.
- Protests continued in Minneapolis following the killing of Renee Good, and a separate incident left another person shot in the leg by a federal agent.
- President Trump warned he could invoke the Insurrection Act if Minnesota leaders fail to curb unrest, while the FBI continues the federal probe into Good’s death.
- State and local pushback expanded as California enacted the No Secret Police Act and Philadelphia officials urged courthouse guardrails to prevent ICE arrests of witnesses and victims.
