Karoline Leavitt Crashes Out Over Reporter Citing Real ICE Statistics | EUROtoday

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt was unable to answer a query about ICE throughout Thursday’s briefing when offered with a handful of information factors that present it’s harming American residents.

Instead, she angrily lobbed a bunch of meritless and private assaults on the reporter.

Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem mentioned earlier within the day that Immigration and Customs Enforcement brokers are “doing everything correctly,” Hill columnist Niall Stanage opened.

But “32 people died in ICE custody last year, 170 U.S. citizens were detained by ICE, and Renee Good was shot in the head and killed by an ICE agent,” Stanage continued, referencing the taking pictures final week in Minneapolis. “How does that equate to them ‘doing everything correctly’?”

Here’s how the remainder of the interplay went:

Leavitt: “Why was Renee Good unfortunately and tragically killed?”

Stanage: “Because an ICE agent acted recklessly and killed her unjustifiably.”

Leavitt, sarcastically: “Oh, OK. So you’re a biased reporter with a left-wing opinion.”

Leavitt then went on an offended, private tirade:

Yeah, since you’re a left-wing hack. You’re not a reporter. You’re posing on this room as a journalist, and it’s so clear by the premise of your query. And you and the folks of the media who’ve such biases however faux such as you’re a journalist, you shouldn’t even be sitting in that seat, however you’re pretending that you just’re a journalist, however you’re a left-wing activist. And the query that you just simply raised and your reply proves you’re biased. You must be reporting on the information, you ought to be reporting on the circumstances. Do you have got the numbers of what number of American residents have been killed by the hands of unlawful aliens who ICE is making an attempt to take away from this nation? I guess you don’t. I guess you didn’t even learn up on these tales. I guess you by no means even examine Laken Riley or Jocelyn Nungaray or the entire harmless Americans who have been killed by the hands of unlawful aliens on this nation. And the courageous women and men of ICE are doing every thing of their energy to take away these heinous people and make our communities safer. And disgrace on folks such as you within the media who’ve a crooked view and have a biased view and faux such as you’re an actual, sincere journalist.
