ICE Chief Concedes It Was Inappropriate For Noem, Miller To Call Good, Pretti ‘Domestic Terrorists’Acting ICE Director Todd Lyons conceded that comments made by Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and senior Trump advisor Stephen Miller calling Renee Good and Alex Pretti “domestic terrorists” after they were killed by ICE agents last month was premature and would “put a bias” on public opinion.The somewhat convoluted admission came during questioning from Sen. Maggie Hassan (D-N.H.) on the Senate’s homeland security committee Thursday.Here’s the back and forth:Hassan: “Were Renee Good and Alex Pretti domestic terrorists?”Lyons: “Ma’am while that investigation is ongoing, to my knowledge, no.”H: “In your testimony Tuesday you said you don’t want to comment on these ongoing investigations because you don’t want to ‘impede’ or ‘bias’ the investigation. Is that right?”L: “Yes ma’am.”H: “If you saying that today would impede or bias the investigation, then why wouldn’t it impede or bias the investigations for secretary Noem and Stephen Miller to say the same thing about the same people?”L: “Any comments that are made … is gonna put a bias on the information.”See All UpdatesClose
