Renee Good's Death Puts ICE In Some Heat!

Where's the lie?

The Midway Wrap Up on May 31.

When the sheep defends the wolves.... Anyone who justifies the clear evidence of this ICE agent killing a women who was trying to avoid confrontation with them is a sheep trusting the wolves.

Renee Nicole Good could be catalyst of ousting Republicans from Congress. Any lawmaker who supports the actions of this rogue Immigration Customs and Enforcement agent should be either primaried or defeated.

No more games.

ICE has also killed, sexually assaulted and committed criminal acts against civilians.

It is time to end the status quo of white men leading our country. President Donald J. Trump has proven that this time, white dominance in federal government is a threat to the soul of the nation.

I do not believe the United States will survive another 250 years. 

On Wednesday, there was protests in Minneapolis to the fatal shooting Renee. They were rejecting ICE and Nick Shirley. There will be nationwide protests this weekend.

Renee's death will not be in vein.

Only eight days into 2026, the president used our military to arrest a sitting president of Venezuela. There were 10 mass shootings. The president and Republicans are now threatening deadly invasions of Venezuela, Cuba, Greenland and Iran. The far right agitators are infiltrating Columbus, Ohio and Philadelphia, some of the largest cities with Somali Americans. Israel has conducted airstrikes in Gaza, Lebanon and Syria killing 50. 

Russia has advanced its forces into eastern Ukraine. They are now working on seizing U.S. tankers after the United States stopped a oil tanker near Iceland. 

Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. reintroduced the food pyramid and it drove criticism. Kennedy's alleged mistress Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins also rolled out new rules to obtaining SNAP assistance.

Homeland Security secretary Kristi Noem called Renee a domestic terrorist.

Many of the Republicans and conservative agitators dismissed her as a such too.

President Donald J. Trump, Vice President JD Vance and many on the far right continue to claim Renee is a "part of the left."

Before Renee Good was fatally shot behind the wheel of her vehicle by a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer, the 37-year-old mother of three had dropped off her youngest child at an elementary school in Minneapolis, the newest city she called home.

While Trump administration officials continued Thursday to paint Good as a domestic terrorist who attempted to ram federal agents with her Honda Pilot, members of her family, friends and neighbors mourned a woman they remembered as gentle, kind and openhearted.

Good, her 6-year-old son and her wife had only recently relocated to Minneapolis from Kansas City, Missouri. The family settled in a quiet residential street of older homes and multifamily buildings, some front porches festooned with pride flags still twinkling with holiday lights. A day after her death, neighbors had grown weary of talking to reporters. A handwritten sign posted to one front door read “NO MEDIA INQUIRES” and “JUSTICE FOR RENEE.”

There was no immediate independent corroboration of those events or of any gang affiliation of the vehicle’s occupants. During prior shootings involving agents involved in President Donald Trump’s surge of immigration enforcement in U.S. cities, including Wednesday’s shooting by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer in Minneapolis, video evidence cast doubt on the administration’s initial descriptions of what prompted the shootings.

According to the the Portland Police bureau, officers initially responded to a report of a shooting near a hospital at about 2:18 p.m.

I'm mad that a "leftist" broke the windows of my home.

In social media accounts, she described herself as a “poet and writer and wife and mom.” She said she was currently “experiencing Minneapolis,” displaying a pride emoji on her Instagram account. A profile picture posted to Pinterest shows her smiling and holding a young child against her cheek, along with posts about tattoos, hairstyles and home decorating.

Her ex-husband, who asked not to be named out of concern for the safety of their children, said Good was no activist and that he had never known her to participate in a protest of any kind. He said she was simply headed home before the encounter with a group of ICE agents on a snowy street.

State and local officials and protesters have rejected the Trump administration’s characterization of the shooting, with Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey saying video of the shooting shows the self-defense argument was “garbage.”

Video taken by bystanders posted to social media shows an officer approaching her car, demanding she open the door and grabbing the handle. When she begins to pull forward, a different ICE officer standing in front of the vehicle pulls his weapon and immediately fires at least two shots into the vehicle at close range.

The entire deadly incident was over in less than 10 seconds.

In another video taken immediately after the shooting, a distraught woman is seen sitting near the vehicle, wailing, “That’s my wife, I don’t know what to do!”

Calls and messages to Good’s wife received no response.

By Thursday, a few dozen people had gathered on the one-way street where Good was killed, blocking the roadway with steel drums filled with burning wood for warmth to ward of a pelting freezing rain. Passersby stopped to pay their respects at a makeshift memorial with bouquets of flowers and a hand-fashioned cross.

Good’s ex-husband said she was a devoted Christian who took part in youth mission trips to Northern Ireland when she was younger. She loved to sing, participating in a chorus in high school and studying vocal performance in college.

Calling her a domestic terrorist, leftist and a woke mind virus is not going to stop the movement. Republicans, you had your Charlie Kirk moment. We about to have a Renee Good moment.

She studied creative writing at Old Dominion University in Virginia and won a prize in 2020 for one of her works, according to a post on the school’s English department Facebook page. She also hosted a podcast with her second husband, who died in 2023.

Kent Wascom, who taught Good in the creative writing program at Old Dominion, recalled her juggling the birth of her child with both work and school in 2019. He described her as “incredibly caring of her peers.”

“What stood out to me in her prose was that, unlike a lot of young fiction writers, her focus was outward rather than inward,” Wascom said. “A creative writing workshop can be a gnarly place with a lot of egos and competition, but her presence was something that helped make that classroom a really supportive place.”

Good had a daughter and a son from her first marriage, who are now ages 15 and 12. Her 6-year-old son was from her second marriage.

Her ex-husband said she had primarily been a stay-at-home mom in recent years but had previously worked as a dental assistant and at a credit union.

Donna Ganger, her mother, told the Minnesota Star Tribune the family was notified of the death late Wednesday morning. She did not respond to calls or messages from the AP.

“Renee was one of the kindest people I’ve ever known,” Ganger told the newspaper. “She was extremely compassionate. She’s taken care of people all her life. She was loving, forgiving and affectionate. She was an amazing human being.”
