Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem left CNN host Jake Tapper speechless as she slammed him for apparent bias over Wednesday's shooting of a Minneapolis woman by an immigration enforcement officer.
During a Sunday appearance on State of the Union, Noem was asked by Tapper if she was 'doing a disservice' to the ICE agent who shot Renee Good through the windshield of her car after she tried to 'run over' the officer with her vehicle by drawing conclusions about the incident.
Noem defiantly responded that she hadn't heard Tapper 'say once what a disservice it's done for Mayor Frey to get up and tell ICE to get the F out!'
Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey told ICE agents to leave his city after Wednesday's shooting, and was also asked about Noem's criticism of him during his own subsequent appearance on CNN Sunday.
Frey didn't buy the idea that his own rhetoric needed to change, telling Tapper that he 'said this was a federal agent recklessly using power that ended up in somebody dying because that was a federal agent recklessly using power that ended up in somebody dying.'
Prior to his CNN appearance, Frey appeared to double down on his earlier stances on his X account. writing that 'today is a good day for ICE to get out of Minnesota.'
During his own interview with the New York Times last Wednesday evening, President Donald Trump told reporters that Good 'behaved horribly' and that G ran him over. She didn't try to run him over. She ran him over."
The Trump administration has come to Ross's defense over his shooting of Good, while Democratic officials in Minneapolis say it was a murder.
ICE has claimed she deliberately drove her burgundy SUV at agents, but witnesses dispute the claims, with Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey calling it 'bullst'.
Witnesses claimed Good and her wife, Rebecca, were allegedly acting as legal observers and filming the protest when she was shot.
But ICE insisted she tried to use the SUV as a deadly weapon.
Footage of the shooting showed the victim blocking the road with her car until ICE agents told her to move away.
She reversed to head back down the road as an agent tried to open the driver's side door handle before she drove off. Three shots then rang out.
Good lost control of the SUV and slammed it into parked cars and a light pole at high speed, prompting screams of shock from horrified onlookers.
Her SUV was seen with a bullet hole through the driver's side windshield.
Good and Rebecca are understood to have fled the US after Trump's victory in 2024, going briefly to Canada before settling in Minneapolis.
They have a six-year-old child together.
State and local officials demanded ICE leave Minnesota after Good's death. But Noem has said agents are not going anywhere.
