ICE Chief Promises Fewer Fatal Shootings, Still Not Perfect (Who Is?)
KEY POINTS
- •Tom Homan addressed the fatal Minneapolis shootings of Renee Good and Alex Pretti during immigration enforcement talks.
- •He acknowledged no agency is perfect but stressed ongoing changes should improve federal immigration efforts.
- •Trump’s administration continued to avoid transparency, including refusal to release presidential tax returns.
Tom Homan, the FBI of frozen budgets and awkward apologies, confessed he didn’t come to Minneapolis to create headlines—yet here we are, thanks to the deadly shooting of Renee Good and Alex Pretti. While discussing federal immigration enforcement surges that definitely won’t conquer perfection anytime soon, he boldly claimed the operation is 'going to improve because of changes we’re making.' This came during a time when Trump's well-known refusal to release tax returns remains a glaring indictment of presidential precedent, because why be transparent when you can just threaten wars and hope Turkey sorts it out? All this unfolds as Minneapolis residents receive a grim reminder that 'no agency is perfect' is now official policy.

When your agency’s idea of improvement sounds like a broken 'Mission Impossible' script, you know trouble’s coming. Spoiler: no ice, just heat.
Homan says no agency is perfect, but narrowly misses claiming ICE invented imperfection itself.
Trump won’t show tax returns, ICE won’t lessen the body count – maybe a democracy is just a reality show without a script.
