President Donald Trump says he will not allow the FBI to work with Minnesota government officials because he believes they are 'crooked.' 

Speaking at a meeting with oil executives in the East Room on Friday afternoon, the president was asked by reporters whether he would work with state officials on the investigation of Renee Good, who was killed by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Wednesday.

'Well, normally I would, but they're crooked officials,' the president responded.

'I mean, Minneapolis and Minnesota, what a beautiful place, but it's being destroyed. It's got an incompetent governor, fool, he's a stupid person,' Trump said of Gov. Tim Walz.

Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey has demanded that federal officials turn over information on Good's shooting to the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension.

Frey has lambasted ICE's presence in Minneapolis and said it is 'bullsh**' to claim the agent who shot Good was acting in self-defense, despite multiple videos showing the 37-year-old drive her car into the federal officer. 

He has defiantly proclaimed: 'To ICE, get the f**k out of Minneapolis. We don't want you here.'

The president also noted allegations of fraud that have been uncovered in Minneapolis and specifically honed in on the city's large Somali population.

'It looks like the number could be $19 billion stolen from a lot of people, but largely people from Somalia. They buy their vote. They vote in a group.'

They sell more Mercedes-Benzes in that area than almost - can you imagine you come over with no money, and then shortly thereafter, you're driving a Mercedes-Benz? The whole thing is ridiculous. So they're very corrupt people. It's a very corrupt state.'

Trump also doubled down on Vice President JD Vance's claim that Good was a part of a 'broad left-wing network' by noting that there appears to have been paid protestors on the ground in Minneapolis to hamstring ICE operations.

'There was a woman "screaming, shame, shame, shame, shame." She was an agitator, probably a paid agitator ... so professional, she wouldn't stop screaming.'
