The day after Renée Good was killed in Minneapolis, Vice President JD Vance offered a chilling defense of ICE officers — or perhaps it was a threat. The officer who shot Good, Vance said, “is protected by absolute immunity.”
“The precedent is simple,” Vance said.
Vance is wrong, and he hedged the claim on Thursday.
Now, federal agents have shot and killed 37-year-old nurse Alex Pretti. (Warning: graphic footage.)
Vance’s response to this ghastly slaughter by federal officers his administration sent in to Minneapolis? Blame local cops, and call the victim a terrorist.
