Megyn Kelly unloaded in a scathing rebuke of Minnesota Governor Tim Walz for his “irresponsible” reaction to the shooting of a woman by an ICE agent in Minneapolis.
The SiriusXM radio host took to social media to react to the unfolding news and reactions to Wednesday’s deadly encounter. And as Democrats and leftist activists quickly ramped up violent rhetoric, accusing the ICE agent of “murder,” Kelly posted videos and comments on X where she urged a more thorough look at footage and what really happened.
She lit into Walz as “shameful” after he posted a comment on the Department of Homeland Security statement, calling it a “propaganda machine.”
“I’ve seen the video. Don’t believe this propaganda machine,” the Democrat governor responded in a quote-tweet of the DHS. “The state will ensure there is a full, fair, and expeditious investigation to ensure accountability and justice.”

“This is so irresponsible. Wait. Wait until we’ve seen and know more,” Kelly posted in response to Walz.
“How dare you – as the sitting governor! – further inflame an already charged situation by declaring the officer’s defense ‘propaganda?’ Shameful.” Kelly added.

Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey (D) had called “bullsh*t” of the Department of Homeland Security statement that said “an ICE officer, fearing for his life, the lives of his fellow law enforcement and the safety of the public, fired defensive shots” after a a woman, identifed as Renee Nicole Good “weaponized her vehicle, attempting to run over our law enforcement officers in an attempt to kill them.”
The Democrat mayor also told ICE officers to “get the f*ck out” of the city.
Kelly, meanwhile, told Frey to “try to control yourself.”
“How about you not try to light your own city on fire for once?” she asked in a post with a video showing another angle of the incident.
Hey @MayorFrey – try to control yourself. This cop almost got run over by this woman, who accelerated into him. It’s right here in this angle of the incident. How about you not try to light your own city on fire for once? https://t.co/6hNKdaFtMB

Kelly also had choice words for other outspoken Democrats, including former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Rep. Ilhan Omar.
This is disgusting. You’re directly endangering lives with this post, madam. As you sit in your country manor with your guards and full staff. https://t.co/01EgFrSisx
