JD Vance Defends ICE Agent After Minnesota Shooting, Escalates Political Fight
Right-wing commentator Tucker Carlson criticized fellow conservatives for their insensitive reaction to Renee Nicole Good’s killing, urging them to view Good's death “through a human lens” regardless of her political affiliations.
Carlson added that numerous conservatives criticized the left’s at-times insensitive response to the recent killing of activist Charlie Kirk, and claimed “violence around the world is desensitizing Americans to violence at home.”
Conversely, other prominent right-wing figures, including commentator Benny Johnson and Donald Trump Jr., blamed Good, alleging she was an "agitator" or part of an anti-ICE conspiracy.
Vice President JD Vance suggested Good's actions could be considered domestic terrorism, despite calling the killing a “tragedy.”
Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey disputed the administration's account, calling it “garbage narrative” based on video evidence that appears to show Good was not heading directly for the agent when shot.
