JD Vance Wants To 'Turn Down The Chaos' He Helped Create In Minneapolis
HuffPost
The vice president acknowledged that the invasion of thousands of federal agents in Minnesota could be "a little scary." The reality is much worse.
Vice President JD Vance said he wants to “turn down the chaos” that he helped create in Minneapolis as thousands of agents with Immigration and Customs Enforcement continue to tear apart the community.
“The directive that I got from the president of the United States is ‘Meet these guys halfway,’” Vance said of city local leaders during a roundtable in Minneapolis on Thursday. “Work with them so that we can make these immigration enforcement operations successful without endangering our ICE officers, and so that we could turn down the chaos a little bit, at least. I think a lot, actually.”
That “chaos” includes the killing of Renee Good earlier this month by ICE agent Jonathan Ross. Good, 37, was seen on multiple videos attempting to drive away in her vehicle on Jan. 7 when Ross shot her multiple times, including through her driver’s side window.
“I’m not mad at you,” Good said moments before she was fatally shot.
“Fucking bitch,” Ross could be heard saying after killing her.
