US EditionICE Accuses Politico Reporter of 'Inciting Violence' Against Feds
ICE accused Politico reporter Josh Gerstein of inciting violence after his tweet suggested stand-your-ground laws could lead to deadly confrontations during a Minnesota daycare fraud probe.
- On Monday, Politico senior legal affairs reporter Josh Gerstein took to X to comment on a viral investigation into alleged fraud at Somali-run daycares in Minnesota, warning that door-knocking encounters could intersect with stand-your-ground laws and turn deadly.
- Nick Shirley's viral reporting on allegedly empty, taxpayer-funded Somali-run daycares prompted door-knocking, while the United States Concealed Carry Association noted Minnesota enforces a duty to retreat, not stand-your-ground.
- A wave of condemnation followed Gerstein's post, including criticism from ICE and media figures, as ICE accused Gerstein of 'inciting violence' and critics viewed the warning as a veiled threat.
- Gerstein returned to X on Tuesday to clarify he was not wishing harm on the reporters and said, `To observe that something is likely to happen or there's a serious risk of it happening is not to advocate for it happening.`
- The episode reignited debate over how self-defense laws apply to passerby encounters and amateur investigations, as ICE and the FBI collaborate on suspected fraud sites in Minnesota while Nick Shirley reports being stalked.
