A woman was shot and killed by an ICE agent in Minneapolis on Wednesday. Shortly after, Senator Tina Smith from Minnesota started getting information from people who were at the scene. Smith has close connections with community activists in her state, and some of them went to the shooting location and shared what witnesses saw.
According to HuffPost, when Smith finally watched a video of the shooting on social media, she was still shocked even though she already knew some details. “I literally gasped in pain and horror. When you’re in my job, you have to try to really, fully understand what is happening, at the same time that you’re having, you know, a very human reaction to this awful tragedy,” she said.
