The outrage against ICE agents has just reached a new level after an ICE agent in Minneapolis, Minnesota shot and killed an innocent motorist. This was seen as heartless by dozens who couldn’t comprehend such a level of what they described as evil. Currently, ICE officials are trying to claim that this was an act of self-defense. With video evidence, it wasn’t. Kristi Noem then made a bad situation even worse by painting the victim’s actions as domestic terrorism.
The unfortunate situation in Minnesota caused outrage, and that outrage increased further after Kristi Noem addressed it. Noem then claimed that the deceased woman tried to attack the agents. She labeled what happened as an “act of domestic terrorism.” Noem then claimed that the deceased woman tried to attack the agents. The woman “attempted to run them over and rammed them with her vehicle. An officer of ours acted quickly and defensively, shot, to protect himself and the people around him,” as Noem said. While watching the video evidence, people pointed out that Noem’s statement wasn’t truthful. This event will likely only increase the tension already between ICE and citizens. Prayers to the woman’s family in such a time.
According to The Associated Press, this made Minneapolis mayor Jacob Frey say, “They are already trying to spin this as an action of self-defense. Having seen the video myself, I wanna tell everybody directly, that is [expletive].” There are protests now because of what went down.
People Reacting to Kristi Noem’s Statement on the Minnesota Victim
It’s safe to say that people were absolutely furious after they heard what Noem had to say about what happened in Minnesota. People were quick to insult her along with ICE agents, as one person wrote, “The cowards are monsters. The monsters are cowards.” Another person said in anger, “SEE IT FOR YOURSELF: THEY ARE [expletive] LYING,” as they shared video of the incident. Someone else demanded that Noem resign, saying, “Kristi Noem must resign immediately. This was a murder.” This made another Bluesky user reply, “You think a lady who killed her dog for not taking to training fast enough is going to resign? She’s a sociopath; she’s biologically incapable of feeling shame.”
More people came after Noem and her statement, as one person said, “Kristi Noem is the domestic terrorist!” Another person pointed out the lies by saying, “I saw the video. Kristi Noem is a Maralago-faced liar. The American citizen was driving away from the ICE agents.” Someone else pointed out, “The crowd was absolutely non threatening.”
This made another person reply, “To the trigger happy, thin-skinned soulless ghouls running ICE, a US citizen in disagreement with them is a five-alarm fire.” When people pointed out that there is a video and Noem should watch it first before talking, a Netizen said, “She doesn’t care. They’ll lie about it in court, too. Just as they have in other cases. It’s all about making sure the lie gets around the world before the truth has even put its pants on.” This situation is definitely heartbreaking.
