The ICE murder of 37 year old Renee Nicole Good by agent Jonathan David Ross is an atrocity that did not have to happen, and demonstrates how dangerous ICE is, in many ways like the Nazi Gestapo.
The outrage is even greater because Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem, White House adviser Stephen Miller, and President Donald Trump jumped to judgment, and called the woman victim a “domestic terrorist”, before a full investigation by the state of Minnesota and the federal government in tandem!
And today, Vice President JD Vance added to his horrendous image by reaffirming what was said the day before, and saying ICE is ready to invade any location in its search for what he calls “criminal elements”, insuring that if he succeeds to the Presidency, the nightmare of Donald Trump will be perpetuated!
It IS ICE that are “domestic terrorists”, totally unleashed, and willing to victimize anyone, and intrude on churches, schools, and all other public places, and to break windows in cars, and use multiple agents to attack pregnant women, the elderly, young children and teenagers, and anyone who “seems” nonwhite in appearance!
It is interesting, however, that Thomas Homan, the so called “Border Czar”, was less willing to make judgment so quickly, as the video evidence is that the young woman was no threat to the agent who murdered her.
Now, the outrage has grown as the FBI is not allowing Minnesota agencies to participate in the investigation of the murder, which means they are likely to “whitewash” the agent who lost control and caused her death. So a full scale coverup is in process!
The American people at large must work to resist the clearly Fascist takeover going on, using the excuse of this tragic incident to impose what looks like martial law in the offing in the near future!
Militarized violence is now the new norm, and justified by the federal government, a total outrage!
I just found out from a cousin that
ICE is deployed in Fairmont, West Virginia (about 20 miles south from the University of West Virginia in Morgantown for the last 2 weeks!
Too Sad…. so many of the people in the country has lost their moral compass.

https://www.nytimes.com/video/us/100000010631041/minneapolis-ice-shooting-video.html
That forensic analysis done by the NY Times shows that the ICE agent who murdered Renee Good was not hit. I know that has seemed obvious to many of us but CNN has been saying that he was. This proves otherwise. I hope they have corrected their coverage.
The NY Times happened to be interviewing Trump when this came down.
Here’s the link: https://www.nytimes.com/2026/01/08/us/politics/trump-minnesota-ice-shooting-video.html?unlocked_article_code=1.C1A.0RzV.RzBaLq88lWQA&smid=tw-share
Here’s an excerpt:
The exchange was a glimpse into Mr. Trump’s reflexive defense of what has become a sometimes violent federal crackdown on immigration, which in this case claimed the life of an American citizen who was protesting ICE’s presence in Minneapolis.
On Thursday, after our interview with the president, a Times analysis of footage from three camera angles showed the motorist was driving away from — not toward — a federal officer when he opened fire.
But on Wednesday night, Mr. Trump stuck to his position even as we pointed out the inconsistencies in his account and the lack of clarity in videos circulating on social media. We asked if, in his mind, firing into a vehicle like that was acceptable.
“She behaved horribly,” Mr. Trump said. “And then she ran him over. She didn’t try to run him over. She ran him over.”
We told the president that the early videos circulating online were unclear.
“I’ll play the tape for you.”
Mr. Trump’s aide Natalie Harp brought a laptop over to the Resolute Desk to show us what he said would be evidence of the woman’s wrongdoing.
Before the video began, Mr. Trump acknowledged the tragic nature of the shooting. “With all of it being said, no, I don’t like that happening,” he said, before pivoting to his common refrain of criticizing illegal immigration.
As a slow-motion surveillance video of the shooting played on the laptop, we told him that this angle did not appear to show that an ICE officer had been run over.
“Well,” Mr. Trump said. “I — the way I look at it … ”
“It’s a terrible scene,” Mr. Trump said at the end of the video. “I think it’s horrible to watch. No, I hate to see it.”
But did this fatal shooting mean his ICE operation had gone too far? Mr. Trump sidestepped the question, instead blaming his predecessor’s immigration policies.
————
They only showed him that one, grainy tape because they didn’t want him out there saying something that could be construed as criticism of the ICE agent. He was surprised to see that it wasn’t true. Of course he reflexively defended than but you can tell that he was surprised. (It’s reminiscent of that MS13 tattoo they photoshopped and told him it was real.)
I think it’s pretty clear that this has become one of the problems. Trump is stupid and he’s crazy. But he’s also undisciplined and unconventional and the people around him who have a bigger agenda can’t trust that he won’t go off script. They’re manipulating him. If they were decent people that might even be a good thing. But they’re not.
I get the impression that Stephen Miller, Kristi Noem, Kash Patel, Pam Bondi, etc. are the ones who are really running the country.
Stephen Miller certainly sounds like he’s the real president. This piece by Ashley Parker in The Atlantic called “The Wrath of Stephen Miller” will chill you to the bone.

I’d go farther and throw out the whole DHS edifice. It was a bad idea to begin with. The country can deal with immigration without this phony macho paramilitary force running around cos-playing like they’re in a video game.
