'Coward!' Republican booed out of town hall for refusing to condemn ICE killings

A Wyoming Republican walked out of her own town hall session to jeers from angry constituents.

Rep. Harriet Hageman (R-WY) abruptly ended the event Tuesday evening at Casper College after students peppered her with questions about the recent killings of two Americans by federal agents in Minnesota during President Donald Trump's immigration crackdown, reported WyoFile.

“I haven’t talked about that," Hageman said in response to a question about the fatal shootings. "I spoke about the Laken Riley Act because it was one of the bills that we passed. I haven’t talked about what was going on in Minnesota.”

“Yeah, why is that?” the student replied. “Why haven’t you said that you condemn the violence or given condolences to the families of the victims?”

“It hasn’t been the topic that we’ve been talking about today,” Hageman responded as the audience booed and jeered. “So I think what has happened in Minnesota is a terrible tragedy for the woman and the man who were killed."

The student then walked out of the Wheeler Concert Hall to applause, and student Allyse Taylor then pressed the lawmaker whether she's concerned about alleged constitutional violations by the Trump administration and federal agents, such as a recent Department of Homeland Security directive authorizing officers to enter homes without judicial warrants.

“I think that I have to look at the investigation,” Hageman said, as audience members mocked her. “If there were violations of someone’s constitutional rights, there is redress.”

“Then why is there no redress?” Taylor asked. “They are killing American citizens in the streets, and you are doing nothing. You are not saying a single solitary thing to support constituents or to support the American people. As a constitutional lawyer, you should be infuriated. You should be incensed. Why are you not?”

At that point Hageman, who recently launched a GOP Senate bid, gathered her folders, waved goodbye and left the stage through a side door.

"Coward," shouted an audience member as others booed. "Chickens---"
