‘Wrong Again’: Kristi Noem Clashes With CBS Host On Live TV Over Minnesota ICE Operations
HuffPost
Noem accused CBS’ Margaret Brennan of "picking and choosing what numbers" to report on.
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem forcefully defended Immigration and Customs Enforcement operations in Minnesota during a tense exchange with CBS’ Margaret Brennan.
Appearing on CBS’s “Face the Nation” Sunday, the conversation kicked off after Brennan asked Noem to detail the percentage of immigrants that had been taken into custody by ICE who “actually committed a criminal versus just [a] civil infraction.”
“Every single individual has committed a crime, but 70% of them have committed or have charges against them on violent crimes, and crimes that they are charged with or have been convicted of that have come from other countries that are here illegally, first of all, and then they have committed a criminal act while they’ve been here or in their home countries as well,” Noem responded.
Brennan quickly interjected to correct Noem, telling her, “It’s not 70%,” to which Noem fired back, “Yes, it is. It absolutely is.”
“You guys keep changing your percentage. You pick and choose what numbers you think work, but that is the facts … 70% of the people that we have detained have charges against them or have been convicted of charges, and they need to be brought to justice,” Noem claimed.
