     “Squad’ Rep. Ilhan Omar implored the public to film Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICEand blasted the Trump administration for making judgments about the shooting of Renee Good before an investigation into it.  Omar is an idiot that should leave the US.

     “It is really important for Americans to record, to create the level of accountability and transparency that we need,” the far-left Minnesota congresswoman told CBS News’.  “What we’ve seen in Minneapolis is ICE agents oftentimes jumping out of their cars, these are unmarked cars, oftentimes they’re wearing a mask, they’re approaching, running towards cars.”  ICE officer Jonathan Ross, who shot Good after she accelerated her SUV in his direction, captured footage of the incident on his cellphone, according to officials, which has been publicly released in the days since the incident.

     Ross did not have a body camera because the agency is “still in the process of deploying” them, ICE Director Todd Lyons told Fox News’ “The Sunday Briefing.”  Omar also accused the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) of lying repeatedly about high-profile ICE raids.  The lefty congresswoman, whose 5th congressional district in Minnesota covers Minneapolis, contended that Good was scared when the ICE officers approached her and bashed their response.

     “Renee Nicole Macklin Good as you hear her say, she’s not mad, she’s sitting in her car, peacefully waving cars to get by,” Omar said. “You see the other officer, who can clearly see the car is moving, move towards the front of the car.”  “If they are saying that he has 10 years on service and is trained, he should know that you shouldn’t be trying to get in front of a moving car.”  Dramatic footage showed Ross standing in front of Good’s stopped SUV before she began accelerating in his direction, at which time he fired three shots, killing her.  Ross was then brought to a nearby hospital after he was “hit by the vehicle” before being released, according to Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem.
