As you undoubtedly have heard there was another killing just two weeks after the prior one

0:12.8

by ICE agents of an American citizen in Minneapolis yesterday, early yesterday morning,

0:19.1

ice agents shot and killed a 37-year-old ICU nurse who worked

0:25.0

at Veterans Affairs named Alex Preti. And there has been all sorts of debate and analysis,

0:31.8

various angles of videos, has happened two weeks earlier with the ice killing of Renee good also 37 year old also

0:39.8

like uh Alex Prady with no criminal record to determine whether or not ice was justified or not in

1:38.6

huge numbers of people who claimed that he pulled out the gun and aimed it at them online.

1:43.7

I want to focus instead on the fact that the government and various government officials,

1:49.3

top-level Trump administration officials,

1:51.6

just continue to blatantly lie about these incidents.

1:55.5

And I say that because if you want to debate whether these killings are justified, obviously people could debate the role of ice and mass deportations.

2:05.5

I thought that it was a pretty strong ethos in right-wing politics that we don't want federal armed agents patrolling American streets.

2:14.1

This has been a part of right-wing ideology for as long as I can remember.

2:18.5
