A Minneapolis mayor’s shocking mockery of an ICE agent’s injury after a deadly shooting exposes how far leftist officials will go to undermine federal law enforcement protecting our communities.
Key Points
- Mayor Jacob Frey ridiculed ICE agent’s injury, comparing it to “closing a refrigerator door with his hips”
- Federal investigation shut out Minnesota state investigators, raising transparency concerns
- ICE agent killed 37-year-old U.S. citizen Renee Nicole Good during immigration enforcement operation
- Frey demands ICE leave Minneapolis, claiming agents make city “less safe”
Mayor’s Outrageous Comments Spark Controversy
Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey delivered inflammatory remarks Friday, mocking the injury sustained by an ICE agent during a deadly shooting incident. Frey claimed the agent “walked away with a hip injury that he might as well have gotten from closing a refrigerator door with his hips” and insisted the officer “walked out of there with a hop in his step.” These callous comments demonstrate the disturbing lengths to which liberal politicians will go to attack federal immigration enforcement, even when an officer’s life is endangered.
The shooting occurred Wednesday during an ICE operation targeting immigration violations in Minneapolis. Federal authorities reported that 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good used her vehicle as a weapon against the ICE agent, who then fired in self-defense. Video evidence of the incident exists, but competing narratives have emerged about the severity of the agent’s injuries and the circumstances surrounding the use of deadly force.

Federal Investigation Under Attack
The FBI assumed sole control of the investigation after the U.S. Attorney’s Office reversed course and excluded Minnesota’s Bureau of Criminal Apprehension from accessing evidence. BCA Superintendent Drew Evans announced his agency’s withdrawal, stating they could not conduct a thorough investigation without complete access to case materials, scene evidence, and investigative interviews. This decision follows standard federal protocol for officer-involved shootings but has drawn criticism from local officials demanding transparency.
Frey escalated his attacks on federal authorities, accusing President Trump and Attorney General Pam Bondi of predetermined conclusions about the incident. The mayor’s confrontational stance reflects broader sanctuary city policies that prioritize protecting illegal immigrants over supporting law enforcement officers risking their lives to enforce immigration laws. His demand for BCA involvement appears designed to undermine the federal investigation’s credibility and shift blame away from the suspect’s actions.
Pattern of Anti-ICE Hostility
Frey revealed that ICE agents were involved in 50 percent of Minneapolis shootings this year, indicating intensive federal enforcement efforts in a city hostile to immigration law. The mayor doubled down on his earlier profane directive telling ICE to “Get the f*** out of Minneapolis,” claiming federal agents make the city less safe. This rhetoric endangers officers and emboldens criminal behavior by suggesting local officials will not support legitimate law enforcement activities.
The incident occurred on the first day of an immigration crackdown in Minneapolis, highlighting the challenges federal agents face in sanctuary jurisdictions. Frey’s inflammatory comments comparing an officer’s injury to a kitchen mishap trivialize the real dangers ICE agents encounter while protecting American communities from immigration violations and criminal activity. Such rhetoric undermines respect for law enforcement and the rule of law conservatives hold dear.
