A video circulating online shows a Michigan man shouting, "We executed one of you yesterday" at an anti-ICE protest in Minneapolis — the day after a mother of three was fatally shot in the head by an immigration agent in Minnesota.
Thevideo, which includes explicit language, shows Jayden Scott of Bay City shouting at demonstrators on Jan. 8 in the wake of thekillingof 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good during an Immigration and Customs Enforcement operation on Jan. 7.
"The storm is here ... no one can stop what is coming," Scott says in the footage before calling anti-ICE protesters "(expletive) terrorists" and urging others to join him. "Patriots get out here. We need the backup."
"All you liberal, commie mother (expletive), keep your hands to yourself or you're going to get hurt today, alright? We executed one of you yesterday," he continued.
On Jan. 10, Scottannounced on LinkedInthat he had resigned as CEO and founder of Harmony Investment Group, a Troy-based private health care investment firm and search fund platform.
"With recent developments in America, the board and I have decided (that) we have different views of the future of America," he wrote on LinkedIn. "It was a great run."
