White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt had a tense exchange with The Hill columnist Niall Stanage over the ICE-involved shooting of 37-year-old Renee Good.
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt had a fiery clash with a journalist during Thursday’s press briefing, labeling him a „left-wing activist“ over an exchange the two of them had over Renee Good.
Niall Stanage, The Hill’s White House columnist, began his question by pointing to the Trump administration’s staunch defense of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), citing stats showing „32 people died in ICE custody“ and „170 U.S. citizens were detained by ICE.“ He also noting last week’s killing of Good, who was shot in what agents said was self-defense because she was using her car as a weapon.
„How does that equate to them doing everything correctly?“ Stanage asked, referring to comments made in defense of ICE by Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem.
