This situation isn’t just frustrating; it raises serious questions about accountability and the rule of law.

Following an ICE officer’s fatal shooting in Minneapolis, city leaders are investigating whether state criminal law was violated. While federal officers have some immunity, it only applies if their actions were authorized and necessary under federal law. Historically, states have prosecuted federal officers for excessive force, with federal courts allowing such cases to proceed when the use of force was questionable. If charges are brought, the case would likely move to federal court, but the state prosecutor would still handle the case, and the president couldn’t pardon a conviction for a state crime.

During a House Oversight Committee hearing, Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley proposed a motion to investigate the fatal shooting of Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis by an ICE agent. The motion, however, failed to pass due to opposition from all Republican committee members. Pressley argued that the committee, responsible for overseeing federal law enforcement, needed to subpoena all related records and footage to uncover the truth, especially since video evidence appeared to contradict the Trump administration’s claims of self-defense. The ACLU also weighed in, stating that Congress should rein in ICE’s actions, given the context of escalating the Department of Homeland Security’s budget.
