Leavitt: "It's very striking that all weekend long you had agitators and violent American citizens out in the streets of Minneapolis 'protesting' -- protesting what exactly? Apparently they are protesting the removal of heinous murderers and rapists and criminals from a city."

A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter.
I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.
