'I will not calm down!' Ex-GOP operative unleashes fury over right-wing 'gaslighting'

Former Republican Party strategist and speechwriter Tim Miller barely held his composure in a video Friday for The Bulwark, as he analyzed newly released cell phone footage from the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent who fatally shot a Minneapolis mother of three at close range through her open car window.

"As you can see there, the agent, Jonathan Ross, the one that kills Renee Good, walks around the front of the car, at which point, with her window down, Renee says to him, 'That's fine, dude. I'm not mad at you,'" said Miller, a frequent critic of the president.

"I will not be f------ gaslit by these people," said Miller. "I will not 'calm down the rhetoric' or tone it down, and be like, oh, you've got to understand the other perspective. Jonathan Ross murdered her. She talked to him calmly, said dude, I'm not mad. Other agents stormed her car. She was afraid. He walks around to the front. She turns her wheel to get away from him, you can see that clearly, he can see it clearly. We all are watching, this is not a tough call."

"I'm carrying a weapon, and I just talked to a 37-year-old lady in a Honda Pilot and she said, I'm not mad at you, dude, smiled, and then some other people started yelling at her, and she goes to turn her car away from me. And it's like right in front of me and she's going two miles an hour," Miller continued. "I'm not going to take out my f------ weapon and shoot her in the head three times."

Miller urged Americans to stand up, demand accountability, and refuse to accept lies from public officials.

"He orphaned her child and called her a 'f------ b----' after he killed her," said Miller. "No, no. We do not have to accept this. You should protest peacefully, should speak out about this, but do not let Donald Trump and J.D. Vance and Kristi Noem and these thugs try to convince you that this is anything other than murder. Because that's what it is."
