Noem Defends ICE Agent in New York as Protests Grow and Impeachment Effort Emerges

The FBI now leads the probe following public challenges by Minnesota leaders to DHS’s narrative.

Overview

  • Renee Nicole Good, 37, was shot and killed by an ICE agent during a Minneapolis operation and was pronounced dead at a local hospital.
  • DHS and Secretary Kristi Noem called the incident an act of domestic terrorism and said the agent fired in self-defense, a claim disputed by bystander video and Minnesota officials.
  • Noem traveled to New York to tout “Operation Salvo” and criticize sanctuary policies as demonstrators rallied in lower Manhattan and city leaders pledged to uphold noncooperation with ICE.
  • Representative Robin Kelly announced plans to file articles of impeachment against Noem, a move unlikely to advance in the Republican-controlled Congress.
  • The shooter has not been publicly identified, the FBI is leading the investigation, and Minnesota officials report restricted access to evidence for state investigators.
