Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kirsti Noem went on CNN on Sunday morning to try to justify the murder of a 37-year-old mother by an immigration agent last week, and some of her comments left one ex-GOP speechwriter stunned.
Noem joined CNN’s Jake Tapperon “State of the Union” on Sunday morning, where the two discussed the recent killing of Renee Good in Minneapolis. Tapper confronted Noem about several claims she made about Good in the aftermath of her death, including that she had weaponized her car against the agent who shot and killed her, Jonathan Ross, and that she was on scene to agitate the immigration agents who were conducting a raid.
Tapper showed Noem a video of Ross calling good a “b—-” after he shot her. The video appeared to undercut Noem’s claim that the officer feared for his life, thereby justifying the shooting. Noem deflected the question and appeared to hold back a smirk in her answer.
Ex-GOP speechwriter Tim Miller reacted to Noem’s comments in a new reaction video on Sunday with Jack Cocchiarella for “Bulwark Takes.”
“I just wanted to make sure it wasn’t AI because … from the start, I thought this was ridiculous,” Miller said. “This video, to me, I thought just showed so clearly that there’s no reasonable way that you could spin this as this man being fearful for his life.”
“There’s no way to be scared,” Miller added. “I’ve been in more dangerous situations in a Walmart parking lot with somebody kind of backing up a little too fast.”
