“First, I want to extend my gratitude to all the people who have reached out from across the country and around the world to support our family.
This kindness of strangers is the most fitting tribute because if you ever encountered my wife, Renee Nicole Macklin Good, you know that above all else, she was kind. In fact, kindness radiated out of her.
Renee sparkled. She literally sparkled. I mean, she didn’t wear glitter but I swear she had sparkles coming out of her pores. All the time. You might think it was just my love talking but her family said the same thing. Renee was made of sunshine.
Renee lived by an overarching belief: there is kindness in the world and we need to do everything we can to find it where it resides and nurture it where it needs to grow. Renee was a Christian who knew that all religions teach the same essential truth: we are here to love each other, care for each other, and keep each other safe and whole.
Like people have done across place and time, we moved to make a better life for ourselves. We chose Minnesota to make our home. Our whole extended road trip here, we held hands in the car while our son drew all over the windows to pass the time and the miles.
What we found when we got here was a vibrant and welcoming community, we made friends and spread joy. And while any place we were together was home, there was a strong shared sense here in Minneapolis that we were looking out for each other. Here, I had finally found peace and safe harbor. That has been taken from me forever.
We were raising our son to believe that no matter where you come from or what you look like, all of us deserve compassion and kindness. Renee lived this belief every day. She is pure love. She is pure joy. She is pure sunshine.
On Wednesday, January 7th, we stopped to support our neighbors. We had whistles. They had guns.
Renee leaves behind three extraordinary children; the youngest is just six years old and already lost his father. I am now left to raise our son and to continue teaching him, as Renee believed, that there are people building a better world for him. That the people who did this had fear and anger in their hearts, and we need to show them a better way.
We thank you for the privacy you are granting our family as we grieve. We thank you for ensuring that Renee’s legacy is one of kindness and love. We honor her memory by living her values: rejecting hate and choosing compassion, turning away from fear and pursuing peace, refusing division and knowing we must come together to build a world where we all come home safe to the people we love.”
Jesse Watters @JesseBWatters: Renee Nicole Good had a "child from a previous marriage." Watters also has children from a previous marriage. He left their mother for a 24 y/o with whom he had an affair. He slashed her tires so she'd have to ask him for a ride.
ice killed at least 32 ppl last yr & at least 2 in just the 1st week of this one. distinction between "legal observer" & "illegal immigrant" has always been utterly meaningless. this is a fascist execution squad. the law will not protect you, move beyond it & against it.
If they will murder a U.S. citizen in broad daylight in front of dozens of people filming it, and lie about it, imagine what they are doing to immigrants in detention when no one is watching, that we never hear about.
MAGAts do not sincerely believe it's self-defense, they just find it incredibly thrilling to see a cop-as-proxy execute a woman they've decided is an ideological enemy. It's a pure crystallization of their deepest desires and seeing it for them is akin to religious revelation.
They need you to be as dumb and evil as they are for you to accept their shameless lies. For the sake of your sanity, you cannot let them: do not let them gaslight you into accepting that their propaganda is the only that can be trusted, rather than your eyes and ears
Man what is there to say any more. We’re living through the dumbest, most evil timeline and the record of it is being inked in real time by the dumbest, most evil people alive
I am endlessly fascinated by this lady and her ominous, vaguely threatening affirmations. They’re like the loading screens you get after you die in a video game: they could be helpful or taunting, but regardless you have to die in order to receive their message

the opening itself is some of the most striking and breathtaking cinema of the decade. what teyana taylor does with her face in these two minutes is extraordinary. what a force.
This has never worked. The US always leaves a country worse than before. Democracy is not coming to Venezuela and anyone still trying to claim that it is, is lying. What will happen is war, murder, genocide, the plundering the country of all natural resources and then installing a puppet government for when we eventually “leave”. And if that puppet makes Trump mad, he’ll get a new one and invade all over again.
