‘The View’ co-host Whoopi Goldberg embarrassingly walked back her remarks attacking Immigration & Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents.

On Monday, Goldberg claimed ICE agents were “violent criminals” following the tragic shooting of Renee Good in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

Goldberg’s bold remarks came during her opening address of the show’s first segment, where she seemingly referred to US President Donald Trump.

“Nobody wants this. This is not what you said they were going to be — this is the thing, you said you were going after the bad guys,” Goldberg said.

“That’s what you said, the violent criminals. And what does it turn out? The violent criminals seem to be in the agency.”

Following a commercial break, the actress walked back on her comments, asserting she was not accusing ICE agents of being criminals.

“Before folks gather around and say, ‘Oh! She’s accusing all of the folks at ICE of being criminals!’ That is not what I’m doing,” Goldberg clarified.
