Matt Walsh explains why he says Renee Good and Charlie Kirk cases are not the same
In his January 8, 2026 post on X, Matt Walsh explained why he rejected the comparison. He wrote a full and clear message to respond directly to the claim.Matt Walsh said, “Charlie Kirk was an innocent man shot and killed for giving his opinion. This was an agitator shot for trying to interfere with federal agents and then hitting one of them with her car. There is no comparison between the two.”Matt Walsh argued that linking the two deaths was an attempt by the political left to spark violence and stop immigration law enforcement. He also said conservatives were being unfairly criticized while cities faced unrest.Federal officials said the ICE officer fired in self-defense after Renee Good tried to use her vehicle as a weapon. However, local leaders strongly pushed back. Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey called the self-defense claim “garbage,” according to Associated Press. He also posted online, “The Trump admin will tell you ICE is here for safety. That is a lie. They are creating chaos and danger while tearing families apart.”Meanwhile, protests continued to grow. On January 8, 2026, CBS News reported that hundreds of people gathered at the Georgia State Capitol in Atlanta. Protesters demanded justice for Renee Good and tighter control over ICE actions.The Associated Press reported that Renee Good was a U.S. citizen, a mother of three, and had recently moved to Minneapolis. Her family and neighbors described her as kind and calm. They rejected claims that she posed a threat. As of now, the federal investigation into the shooting is still ongoing.Also Read: Candace Owens Raises New Questions About Charlie Kirk After Revealing A Never Before Seen Image With No Visible Blood
