Minnesota AG Slams JD Vance’s False Claim That Killer ICE Agent Can’t Be Prosecuted

Keith Ellison talks to Prem about the Trump administration’s smear campaign against Renee Nicole Good and its shameful effort to protect her killer.

As Donald Trump’s administration tries to protect a murderous ICE agent, Minnesota’s attorney general is working to investigate Renee Nicole Good’s killing.

In a wide-ranging interview Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison pushes back on Vice President JD Vance’s false claim that ICE agents have “absolute immunity.”

“Maybe he’s deliberately lying, maybe he just doesn’t know. I figured a Yale-trained lawyer would know,” Ellison tells Prem, explaining that federal agents can be prosecuted for “abusing” their authority or doing their job “improperly.”

Ellison also discusses how the Trump administration has tried to impede state officials’ efforts to investigate Good’s killing – and is actively “undermining the process of justice.”

Paid subscribers can watch the full conversation above to hear Ellison discuss the Trump administration’s efforts to smear Renee Nicole Good, the growing protests against the federal invasion in Minnesota, and the president’s authoritarian ambitions.
