Trump on ICE Shooting: Renee Good 'Wonderful Person' But Actions 'Pretty Tough'

  • President Trump commented on the fatal shooting of Renee Good by an ICE agent, calling her a 'wonderful person' but her actions 'pretty tough'.
  • Renee Good, 37, was shot by ICE agent Jonathan Ross in Minnesota on January 7; videos show Ross shooting at her moving car.
  • Department of Homeland Security and VP JD Vance defended Ross, citing self-defense, while Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and Democrats suggest Good was trying to leave.
  • Trump defended ICE, blaming 'open border policy' for enforcement challenges and stating the shooting video 'could be viewed two ways'.
  • The incident has reignited debate over ICE's use of force and accountability, with a recent poll showing growing support for abolishing ICE.

Why It Matters: Trump's remarks on the ICE shooting highlight political divisions over immigration enforcement and accountability.
