Late night talk show host Jimmy Kimmel condemned the shooting of a 37-year-old woman by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents in Minneapolis on his show.
During his monologue, Kimmel held up a T-shirt inscribed with the Minneapolis mayor’s foul-mouthed quote urging ICE to exit.
In his opening segment, Kimmel criticized President Donald Trump for a Truth Social post where he claimed Renee Nicole Good “viciously ran over the ICE officer, who seems to have shot her in self-defense.”
“This maniac, he isn’t just killing people overseas: An ICE agent today shot and killed an unarmed, 37-year-old woman during an ICE operation in Minneapolis,” Kimmel stated.
“Now, I saw this video,” Kimmel added. “It didn’t look like anybody got run over to me.”
“It looked to me like a woman got scared, tried to drive away, and they shot her,” Kimmel continued.
Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey blasted the White House’s attempts to say the shooting was an act of self-defense.
“I have seen the video myself. I want to tell everybody directly, that is bull—-,” Frey said.
Frey later told ICE to “get the f— out of Minneapolis.”
“Now, that is the shirt I want to see,” Kimmel said before holding up a shirt that read, “Get the f— out of MPLS.”
Kimmel stated he wanted ICE to get out “of all these cities.”
The late-night talk show host has been a vocal critic of the Trump administration and was briefly pulled off the air for comments he made after the assassination of conservative leader Charlie Kirk.
Vice President JD Vance defended the shooting at a press conference, repeatedly asserting that the officer acted in self-defense and rejecting claims it amounted to murder.
“She was trying to ram this guy with her car. He shot back. He defended himself,” Vance said.
