If this agent had PTSD from previous interactions, at a minimum, he should have been on medical leave until an evaluation cleared him for duty. His trauma isn't an excuse or a justification for murdering someone in cold blood.
Not an excuse to murder a woman who posed no threat and didn't touch him with his vehicle.

Today, we unfortunately did not gain enough Republican support to override Trump's veto of a bipartisan bill to deliver clean water to 50,000 residents in rural Colorado.
Trump's veto is the continuation of his retribution campaign against Colorado, and families in our state will pay the price.

This is D.C. at its worst. Every single U.S. House member supported this bill to bring clean water to Southeastern CO before Christmas — Democrats & Republicans. But they refused to stick to their guns & override Trump’s retaliatory veto. Rural Colorado is paying the price for these political games.
NEW: House Republicans uphold President Trump’s veto of a clean drinking water project in Colorado. The bill passed Congress unanimously last year. Two-thirds were needed for an override. Trump has promised “harsh measures” against Colorado over false election rigging claims.

Kristi Noem is a stone-cold liar who has zero credibility.
There is nothing to suggest the shooting of an unarmed woman in Minneapolis was justified.
This heinous killing must be criminally investigated to the full extent of the law.
