Ilhan Omar asks why ICE agent Jonathan Ross was in front of Renee Good's moving car in Minneapolis

Rep Ilhan Omar doubled down on ICE and asked why an ICE officer with 10 years of experience was in front of a moving car in Minneapolis, where Renee Good was shot dead. Appearing on CBS’s Face the Nation, Omar said though everyone has seen the videos of the shooting and now understands that what the administration is claiming is wrong, the administration must wait for the investigation to end before making judgments. “It is not acceptable for Kristi Noem and the president and the vice president to make these kind of judgments without there being a full investigation, even though we can see in the videos that have been produced so far that what they are describing is really not what is taking place,” Omar said.“And so, if they’re saying that we shouldn’t believe our eyes, then let the investigation take place before you characterize this mother of three as a domestic terrorist. Prove to us what documentation you have,” she added. “There is no reason for them to use this level of rhetoric. There is no reason for them to fully stop these programs, funding these programs,” Omar said. “The only reason they are doing that is for PR purposes. And it is harming our state. It is harming my constituents.”Minnesota has been under fire over allegations of massive Somali fraud. Ilhan Omar is also being investigated while Republicans want her to be deported. The row reached a boiling point when Renee Good was shot dead by ICE officer Jonathan Ross. The administration claimed that Good was trying to mow down the officer which is now a disputed claim as several angles of the video show that the woman was going away.The administration stood by its narrative that it was a domestic terror attack and cited the video where the ICE agent could be seen falling on the ground. “ICE isn’t the problem. The problem is sanctuary politicians and the violent criminal illegal aliens they protect. President Trump and this administration work to protect every single American and make sure that they can live in a safe community and can raise their kids without fear,” Kristi Noem said Sunday.
