"You were just defending ICE agents generally, and earlier on Secretary Noem spoke to the media and she said among other things that they are doing everything correctly. Thirty-two people died in ICE custody last year, 170 U.S. citizens were detained by ICE, and Renee Good was shot in the head and killed by an ICE agent. How does that equate to them doing everything correctly?"
"Oh, okay, so you're a biased reporter with a left-wing opinion, shot back Leavitt, which prompted Stanage to wonder, What do you want me to do? Leavitt then pressed on: Yeah, because you're left-wing hack! You're not a reporter, you're posing in this room as a journalist, and it's so clear by the premise of your question. And you and the people in the media who have such biases, but fake like you're journalists, you shouldn't even be sitting in that seat."
Karoline Leavitt sharply rebuked reporter Niall Stanage after he questioned ICE practices and cited deaths and detentions, including Renee Good’s shooting. Stanage asked how claims that ICE is "doing everything correctly" align with 32 deaths in ICE custody, 170 U.S. citizens detained by ICE, and Good’s fatal shooting. When Stanage characterized the shooting as reckless and unjustifiable, Leavitt accused him of bias, called him a "left-wing hack," and said he was posing as a journalist. Leavitt urged reporting on factual cases, asked about Americans killed by illegal aliens, named Laken Riley and Jocelyn Nungaray, and defended ICE personnel.
