Mike Johnson Says ICE Shooting a Priest Doesn't Cross the Line

https://newrepublic.com/post/201757/mike-johnson-ice-shoot-priest-cross-line

“We’ve seen images out of Chicago of federal agents shooting faith leaders with pepper balls and arresting journalists,” a reporter said. “Where’s the limit for you on what’s acceptable conduct by federal law enforcement? And when is it incumbent on Congress to amend oversight on federal law enforcement?”

“I’ve not seen them cross the line yet,” Johnson replied, saying that there were some committees with jurisdiction over federal law enforcement. “It’s not risen to that level.”

that'd be an act of war calling for full retaliation. Right, Mikey?
