The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is facing questions from lawmakers over the shooting of a U.S. citizen by Border Patrol agents in Chicago after a criminal complaint filed against the victim differed from the agency's initial description of events. U.S. Senator Chris Murphy, a Democrat representing Connecticut, has written to DHS Secretary Kristi Noem asking for her to correct the public record and release all bodycam footage of the incident, claiming that "the evidence appears to contradict" the official account. Murphy accused the DHS and the Trump administration of "omitting facts in some cases, and in other cases, they are straight up lying in order to support their narrative that these Democratic-led cities and states are war zones." "This isn't information. It's propaganda," he said in a video posted to social media.
