Biden criticizes Minnesota immigration enforcement, calls it contrary to U.S. values

Biden criticized federal agents for killing two Minneapolis residents during immigration enforcement and urged full investigations amid rising protests and calls for accountability.

  • On Tuesday, Biden said, `What has unfolded in Minneapolis this past month betrays our most basic values as Americans` and called for investigations into Alex Pretti and Renee Good's deaths.
  • Two Americans were shot and killed by U.S. Border Patrol and federal agents in Minneapolis this month, including Renee Nicole Good, 37, who was fatally shot three times on Jan. 7.
  • Administration officials said Pretti was armed and resisting, but bystander footage appears to show him holding only a phone, and Pretti's family and Democratic lawmakers disputed the official account.
  • Anti-ICE protesters in Minneapolis and elsewhere have intensified after the deaths this month, with Barack Obama and Michelle Obama calling Pretti's death a `heartbreaking tragedy` and condemning Department of Homeland Security's `unprecedented tactics`.
  • Biden praised Minnesotans for remaining strong, helping community members, and holding government accountable while blaming the Administration's aggressive crackdown and saying `No single person can destroy what America stands for, not even a President`.
