US Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem defended the ICE killing in Minneapolis, calling it an act of self-defence. She said the officer involved was experienced and acted under threat, adding that the department stands by its personnel amid scrutiny and political backlash.

NewsTranscript
00:00well thank you Ricky and Frank and Ken for all of your hard work that you do
00:05every day here in New York City but also for the rest of our country with that
00:08we'll open it up to any questions that you may have
00:12pending charges or convictions and I'm wondering ISA's own data in New York City shows that over
00:18the last year between January and October 70% of the arrests that ICE did in New York City
00:23had no criminal convictions or pending charges should New Yorkers expect that
00:27if you look across the nationwide average we have 70% of the individuals that we've
00:36arrested and detained have criminal convictions or charges against them
00:39either in this country or other we're continuing to do our work to bring those
00:46criminal illegal aliens to justice and ICE will continue to get up every day and do
00:50what they can to protect New York City I can have Frank or can speak to if you
00:54know how many criminal convictions of the 54 had previous to this arrest that
00:59they had I don't know if you have those data we can get those for you though
01:03exactly the vast majority of them they'll have criminal charges against them or
01:07convictions against them as well yes
01:11again loosely affiliated to the Trinitarios want to make that clear through connections by you know
01:27connections that we made by speaking to them understanding who who they were where
01:32they were operating out of and contacts that they had on their phones immigration status all illegals
01:39it varies it's it varies spectrum from you know speaking to individuals as
01:50associated with the gang to just having conversations
01:55what I would encourage everyone to do and especially your elected officials is to bring
02:12everybody together to talk about partnerships and start working with ICE and start working with CBP as
02:17we bring criminals to justice and many times your policies and the rhetoric coming out of elected
02:23officials has divided people and pitted them against each other our job every day and what
02:27president Trump promised to do was to protect every single American no matter where they lived in this
02:32country that he was going to make sure that we weren't going to have more victims in this
02:36country that and we are going to continue to do that each and every day and I'd encourage the
02:42leaders in this city and your governor and in other cities and states across this country
02:47to work with us rather than opposing us so that we can continue to make our streets safer
02:53yes right here
02:55hi
02:55this is not the only example the one that you've put up today of officers being attacked by alleged gang members
03:04in New York City we also had those officers who were attacked in Times Square back in May
03:09with these examples has Mayor Mamdani in his administration offered to cooperate when it comes to getting criminal gang members off the streets
03:20because we know he is not a fan of ICE but when it comes to criminal gangs is there any kind of leeway that has been given that
03:29you know we're hoping the mayor will work with us to get these criminal elements and especially gang members and terrorist organizations out of New York City
03:36I know he and the president had a productive conversation you know our communication at the Department of Homeland Security has not been productive with the mayor's office or with NYPD but we we want to continue those conversations so we
03:50can work together
03:52yes
03:53director Russo spoke about how this operation happened discreetly
03:56mm-hmm
03:57yeah
03:59which is in contrast to what happened in Minneapolis yesterday
04:01mm-hmm
04:03what do you mean in contrast to what happened in
04:05very very not very much
04:07because of the protesters and the violent criminals that were attacking our law enforcement if you remember in that operation
04:12what happened was our officers were out trying to get a car stuck out of the snow when they were surrounded and assaulted
04:19and blocked in by protesters that were inciting
04:22the officer was following his training
04:24he did follow his training because of an individual that was
04:27point blank into a driver's window is that part of the training is that how is that self-defense
04:32this is an experienced officer who followed his training and we will continue to let the investigation unfold into the individual and continue to follow the procedures and policies that happen in these use of force cases but let's remember the events that surrounded what happened yesterday on that tragic scene
04:48was that these individuals had followed our officers all day had harassed them had blocked them in they were impeding our law enforcement operations which is against the law and when they demanded and commanded her to get out of her vehicle several times she did not so we'll continue to allow this process to unfold and recognize that these law enforcement officers every single day put their lives on the line they go out and do their jobs they go out and do their jobs they go out and
05:15this was an act of domestic terrorism which is perpetuating
05:22these policies and procedures that follow a use of force situation like this are continuing to be put in place so this is standard operating procedure after every use of force situation is that we follow these procedures and protocols this situation is no different back there nope this young lady right beside you I'll come to you next
05:42I would say that President Trump and his administration are focused on protecting people so we will never telegraph exactly the numbers and operations that we have and where we will be focused on but I think that when you see violent criminals that are taking advantage of American citizens and putting their lives in jeopardy our law enforcement officers at DHS will always show up yes I'll come back
05:49I'll come back I'll come back go ahead
05:56Secretary the officer went to the hospital he was hit by the vehicle and went to hospital and received treatment was released and is spending time with his family now
06:03yes sir
06:10yes sir
06:12in Minneapolis yesterday you said the search there would continue
06:16you directly say whether we can expect an ice surge for civil deportation enforcement can you explain what a surge is and I won't I won't describe in detail our law enforcement operations that we have is just puts our officers lives in jeopardy but they will be
06:23at their enforcing the laws of this country and upholding the public safety needs and upholding
06:33the public safety needs that that have to happen when it comes to enforcing federal law enforcement and department of law enforcement of state and police officers who they will be
06:41our law enforcement operations that we have.
06:43It just puts our officers' lives in jeopardy,
06:46but they will be there enforcing the laws of this country
06:49and upholding the public safety needs that have to happen
06:52when it comes to enforcing federal law.
06:53So will this be just Homeland Security investigation?
06:56You know, we've got thousands of officers there,
06:58and I'm not opposed to sending more if necessary to keep people safe.
07:02Back up here.
07:03Secretary, can you talk a little bit about the experience of the officer
07:07and some of his background?
07:08How much training did he have?
07:09How much training in these types of situations did he have,
07:12even if he's from the region?
07:13Yeah, I'm not going to get specific to this officer,
07:15but he's an experienced officer that has served a number of years,
07:19and we recognize that he acted according to his training,
07:24and we have expected all the policies and procedures of review
07:27will be exactly that he acted appropriately to affect his life
07:31and the life of his colleagues and fellow law enforcement officers
07:35that were there and people that were surrounding.
07:37Yes.
07:38I'd like to get your reaction on some of the rhetoric here
07:40in New York City.
07:41Mayor Zora Mamdani responded to the shooting yesterday,
07:44saying that this is only the latest horror in a year full of cruelty.
07:47He called it an attack on us all,
07:49and that New York stands with immigrants today and every day.
07:53Also, council members last night at the protest called this fascism.
07:56The New York City's public advocate, Jumaane Williams,
07:59said that your administration is, quote,
08:01doing the devil's work,
08:03and he asked New York City to stand up and show up, quote,
08:06it's going to be difficult and there are going to be casualties.
08:09And the last comment that was made last night at the protest
08:12was from New York State Representative Alex Boros, also a Democrat.
08:16Quote, not only was the ICE agent's hand on the gun,
08:19but Secretary Noem's hand was on the gun.
08:22President Trump's hand was on the gun.
08:23What is your response to your Democratic leaders,
08:26those particular comments, and the protesters that are outside?
08:29I would say those comments are why we're standing where we are today.
08:32That kind of language and that kind of provocative talk,
08:36inciting people to take action and perpetuate violence in some cases,
08:42is unacceptable, and especially of elected leaders.
08:44We have a responsibility to state the facts,
08:47to go out and enforce the law.
08:49Your mayor just said in that statement
08:51that he was going to stand with illegal people who have broken our law
08:54before he's going to put New York City citizens first.
08:57His job and why he was elected was to protect the people who live here
09:01that had the opportunity to vote for him
09:03and have the opportunity to live in this city.
09:06They pay their taxes, they go to work every day,
09:09and instead the mayor in that statement
09:10chose to stand with illegals instead of those individuals
09:13who just want the chance to raise their families in New York City
09:16and have a part of the American dream.
09:18Madam Secretary, you wanted to know
09:19the head of Minnesota State Investigations Agency
09:22said that they had been cut out of the investigation
09:25into the fatal shooting in Minneapolis.
09:28Can you explain that reversal?
09:30I'd like to know where they've been
09:31and why they're not out on the streets
09:32investigating all of these people that are harassing
09:35and inciting violence on law enforcement officers right now.
09:38They're allowing the situation to be volatile.
09:40They're not doing their work.
09:42They haven't for years,
09:42and maybe they should get to work a little bit
09:44on the unprecedented fraud that we've seen in Minnesota
09:48and in Minneapolis by people that stole from American citizens
09:51and diverted funds away from vulnerable people
09:54and programs and services that they needed
09:57and put it into their own pockets.
09:58Minnesota is a train wreck.
10:00It is corrupt,
10:01and it was under the leadership of Governor Walz
10:03and this mayor that they allowed it to happen,
10:05and they let criminals and illegals
10:07and people abuse programs and steal the money,
10:10and now they're allowing violence to go forward on the streets as well.
10:13This also applies to the Minneapolis Police Department,
10:16the county sheriffs,
10:18the federal authorities at this point, they don't want them.
10:19I won't put a blanket statement out
10:21like those other individuals will.
10:23What I would say is I welcome them to come and help us.
10:26Come help us make sure that the streets are safe,
10:29that laws are enforced,
10:30and that we can do the right thing
10:31to make sure that American citizens come first.
10:34Yes, sir.
10:36They have not been cut out.
10:37They don't have any jurisdiction in this investigation.
10:40Yes, go ahead.
10:43I'm going to speak to this individual right here.
10:45Yes.
10:46Jay Dahl from WPINX.
10:47How do you respond to Americans
10:49who have been listening to your comments
10:50that this was an act of domestic terrorism,
10:53that the officer was...
10:54Anytime you take something...
10:56...is in direct contradiction
10:57to what they are seeing and watching
11:00in the multiple angles that have been released.
11:03What I would...
11:04...24 hours.
11:05This vehicle was used to hit this officer.
11:08It was used as a weapon,
11:10and the officer feels as though his life was in jeopardy.
11:13It was used to perpetuate a violent act
11:17that this officer took action to protect himself
11:21and to protect his fellow law enforcement officers.
11:23So we'll let this continue to go forward
11:26and follow the same policies and procedures
11:28that every use of force situation does.
11:30But we've had almost over a hundred times
11:34that these vehicles have been used
11:35to ram law enforcement officers
11:37and to do damage and to harm them.
11:39When you take an action and use a weapon
11:41to harm someone and to incite violence against them
11:44and try to cause them injury or death,
11:48then it needs to be labeled exactly what it was.
11:50Do you believe the use of force in this instance
11:53was commensurate with the actions of that vehicle
11:55and the driver?
11:56I would say that when these individuals
11:58use their vehicles to try to ram our law enforcement
12:01and to put their lives in jeopardy,
12:03that that law enforcement officer has to make a decision
12:05to protect his life and the individuals around him as well.
12:09You know, I didn't see those comments,
12:24but from what I understand,
12:26he also put out a statement later as well.
12:29So I'll let Tom speak to that.
12:31But all of us are on the same page
12:33in the fact that this law enforcement officer
12:35followed his training
12:36and that he defended and acted
12:39in defense of his life and those around him.
12:42Mr. Secretary, I'm the Secretary of State.
12:43Darla Miles, ABC70, you have two quick questions.
12:46First, you said these protesters
12:49have been following the ICE agents.
12:51Do you have a little bit more of a timeline
12:52and can you share with us
12:53some of those other initial encounters
12:56prior to the fatal shooting?
12:58And then secondly, can you speak to the closure
13:00of the ICE office at Rikers by Mayor Momdani?
13:04There will be more details coming out
13:07as this goes forward in the coming days.
13:10And I'll talk more about that closure in the future.
13:13Yep.
13:14So can you say there was how many times that they
13:16had been threatened, like how many other times?
13:19It had been ongoing throughout the day.
13:21Yes.
13:22Thank you, Madam Secretary.
13:23Whatever happened in Minneapolis,
13:25a mother of three is dead,
13:27an American citizen.
13:28Do you have a message for her family?
13:30Yes, absolutely.
13:32And I reiterated this yesterday
13:33when I had my press conference in Minneapolis.
13:36I asked everybody not to just pray for the officer,
13:38but also pray for the deceased family
13:40and her loved ones as well.
13:41It was a tragic situation
13:43that I hope we never see happen again.
13:45That's why I'm encouraging all elected leaders
13:47to work together so that we can be cooperative
13:50in getting dangerous criminals off of our streets.
13:52Do you feel like that you go in
13:55and you go in with a lot of publicity
13:57about these operations?
13:59Do you feel like that needs to be revisited
14:01so that maybe you go in a little more covertly
14:05or do you need to change the approach at all?
14:07I would say that we have all different kinds
14:08of law enforcement operations ongoing
14:10with the department at all times.
14:13We don't telegraph what they are,
14:14the details or specifics,
14:15or where we're going to be operating.
14:18I would say that there's different tactics utilized
14:20for what's appropriate for the situation
14:22and the criminal activity we see in the city.
14:24Last question.
14:25Do you know the details of Renee Hood's harassment
14:28of ICE officers early in the day?
14:30Were any of those details shared in here?
14:32Because apparently it wasn't just that one incident,
14:34it was earlier in the day as well.
14:36Yes, it was, and that will be a part of some of the details
14:39that we will be sharing in the future.
14:42Thank you all for being here,
14:43and I appreciate you focusing on this operation
14:46and the 54 criminals that we have gotten off the streets
14:49because of the work of this team behind me.
14:52We thank all of them for their service
14:53and recognize that, again, I'll remind you,
14:55tomorrow is Law Enforcement Day.
14:57Please take the time to thank a law enforcement officer
15:00who's out there keeping us and our families safe.
15:02were not allowed to let himoks to give birth to his son03.
15:04They're not allowed to let him cross him.
15:05Now the animals are stained by his son03.
15:06The animals are stained by his son03.
15:08They're in line事 that he's being burned at that door is
