The shooting MUST be prosecuted even if the shooter goes free. We must push legally politically as iron hard as possible. No one should feel comfortable about this no matter which side you are on.
Agreed. If this gets examined and is determined to be a homicide, manslaughter, wrongful death, whatever nomenclature they attach, justice must be served. We need to know that the shooter is not carrying his weapon tonight.
I saw the video. The Federal agents were to the side of the car and behind the front door. I also remember Rodney King. Its really tough to believe this kind of hatred still occurs in America.
Bradley, I too find the emergence of hatred to be unsettling. Before we were connected by the internet, haters hated alone, but now they got the world wide web to find people just like themselves. Little groups form from deep grievances, and they are consumed by bigger groups with more grievances and they melt into larger hate groups until they are the Republican party's big tent. A tent full of red hats and flag waving, held upright by hate, fed hate, asked to hate, required to hate. Exhausting but it has filled their life with hatey friends, albeit "friends."
But you know what? there are more of us than them. We are the lovers. Lovers gonna love. Less exhausting and big rewards.
It’s super important to keep in mind that a large % of “hate” on the internet comes from 🤖’s and paid Russian (and other nefarious) operatives living in poor countries. Up to 50% if I remember right. We can expect this to escalate with AI.
They are Nazis and ICE is the Gestapo. I can’t figure out how Fox is allowed to spew lies and propaganda 24/7. It is time to shut the country down with a general strike. This madness cannot be allowed to continue. Trump is taking the country down and exhausting everyone with daily madness and lawlessness. We need to shut it down!
I don’t know which points to a big problem - we lack a leader who wants good trouble. In this case I think Minneapolis could shut down until ICE leaves and it would likely spread organically. No work, no going out except for essentials. Grind the city to a halt and let the courage be contagious to other cities and then nationally.
We are beholding chilling voids of conscience, reflexive sadistic violence, and a total loss of any semblance of humanity. Trump's psychopathy and indifference to the fabric of human connection taps and motivates those of similar deformity and accelerates an endorsement of hate and cruelty.
We no longer have to wonder how the German People tolerated the Nazi brutality, we are active witnesses to the contagion of the darkness and barbarity on a stunned society. These people are monsters. We must shout in outrage, demand justice and civility.
MAGA self-justification always reminds me of the self-justification of a wife beater or killer: “she made me do it”. Gaslighting, bullying, self-justification by blaming their victims, projecting their own fears, intentions, wishes, bad behavior onto whoever they perceive as opposing them or disagreeing with them or “disrespecting “ them, or whoever happens to be nearby when they’re having a bad day. This administration is truly empowering the dregs of America.
Any apology from Noem? Heartfelt wishes to the family of the dead woman? Any talk of an investigation, or to say we were wrong and we need to do better. She should cosplay in a Nazi uniform, black boots, whip, meow. Her antipathy and cruelty is boundless. Trickles down don't it? Fish stinks from the head?
I sat in front of my TV this morning up here in Canada, first watching the CNN scroll that the Trump administration was working on plans to invade Greenland, then hearing the plan for the U.S. to steal Venezuela’s oil, and finally seeing the video of a driver being gunned down by an overly zealous ICE agent, thinking “Holy shit, bit by bit I’m watching the United States fall apart.”
Her blood in the snow is also on the hands of Trump and his stooges. With a microsecond taken in forethought, they would have known that something like this was bound to happen under the occupation of ICE thugs, masked to slither away from accountability. Trump would have known had he even cared about a human life.
It is remarkable and distressing to see Fox on active clean-up duty, soliciting lies from various corrupt authorities and ignoring the human tragedy and the botched but cruel immigration enforcement actions.

* ~1:30 p.m.: Mayor Jacob Frey and local leaders hold a news conference. Frey calls the shooting "reckless" and "garbage narrative," demanding that ICE leave the city immediately.
* ~1:52 p.m.: Governor Tim Walz issues a statement condemning the shooting as "totally predictable and totally avoidable." He activates the state’s Emergency Operations Center and readies the National Guard.
Timeline of Federal Response
* Early Afternoon (~12:00 PM – 12:30 PM):
* Department of Homeland Security (DHS): Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin issued the first federal statement, asserting the agent fired "defensive shots" because he was "fearing for his life". DHS claimed the driver had "weaponized her vehicle" and attempted to ram agents. (*)
* Morning (~ Shortly before 11:00 a.m. EST):
* Secretary Kristi Noem: While in Brownsville, Texas, Noem addressed the shooting during an unrelated press conference. She characterized the incident as an "act of domestic terrorism". She stated that ICE agents were stuck in the snow and the woman "attacked them... and attempted to run them over".
* Official Social Media: The official Homeland Security account posted "STAND WITH ICE" in all caps [previous context].
* Late Afternoon (~3:28 PM):
* Donald Trump: The President posted on Truth Social, stating he had viewed video of the event. He defended the agent, claiming the driver "violently, willfully, and viciously ran over the ICE Officer". He further alleged that a screaming bystander in the video was a "professional agitator" and blamed the "Radical Left" for targeting agents.
* Secretary Kristi Noem (5:00 p.m. CST (6:00 p.m. EST): Official News Conference: In a later briefing, Noem clarified that the officer had been taken to the hospital but was released. She claimed the same officer had been previously injured in a similar incident in June.
Currently Minneapolis is protesting nonviolently .. In contrast to the 2,000 ICE agents deployed
ICE shooting in Minneapolis: Raw video of the incident
One thing that strikes me is the complete lack of concern shown by the ICE "officer" who shot the driver as she drove past him, not at him. The look on what we could see of his face as he strode past the shocked crowd was complete indifference, just another day at the office. I wonder if they all shared a celebratory beer back at their base. Sadly, I wouldn't be surprised.

Of course not.
I sat in front of my TV this morning up here in Canada, first watching the CNN scroll that the Trump administration was working on plans to invade Greenland, then hearing the plan for the U.S. to steal Venezuela’s oil, and finally seeing the video of a driver being gunned down by an overly zealous ICE agent, thinking “Holy shit, bit by bit I’m watching the United States fall apart.”
Every day brings new horrors. I wish I lived in Canada. I'm happy you are our neighbor to the north.
They don’t care how many bodies, what it takes is never admitting [they’re] wrong.
I’ll say it again..settle in for the long run doing what’s right. RIP Reneé, 🫶

Remember the name, Rene Nicole Good, as another ICE tragedy unfolds in Minnesota.
Say her name Renee Nicole Good 🕊️

I believe the correct spelling is Renee. Also a different photo has been identified as Renee.

I guess anything goes in Trumpland. EVERYONE who condones this in any way are accessories to flat out murder!!There are no valid excuses.
