Here is my opinion on Minneapolis killing by ICE officer, and facts still matter.⚖️
ICE agents are federal law enforcement, but their authority and use of force are limited by the Constitution. A US citizen cannot be detained for immigration purposes, and fleeing alone is not a legal justification for deadly force under Supreme Court precedent.
Deadly force is lawful only when an officer reasonably believes there is an immediate threat of death or serious bodily harm. That standard comes from Graham v. Connor and Tennessee v. Garner, and it applies to ICE the same as to any armed federal agent.
In the Minnesota case, multiple videos show agents initiating the encounter, surrounding the vehicle, giving conflicting commands, and escalating the situation. One agent attempted to open the car door while others shouted instructions. The woman in a car, a US born citizen, appeared to behave frightened and confused.
Video shows her backing up to avoid an agent positioned near the front side of the vehicle, then turning the steering wheel away from him in an apparent attempt to disengage. The agent who ultimately fired had apparently already drawn his weapon before the car moved forward.
An officer placing themselves in a dangerous position, creating confusion, and then claiming fear does not automatically meet the constitutional threshold for lethal force. This case is not about immigration. It is about escalation, officer-created danger, and whether deadly force was objectively reasonable.
Law enforcement does not get a constitutional exemption simply because propaganda moves faster than the truth.
You can see clearly in the video that agent is pulling the gun while she is still backing up to make a maneuver to avoid hitting the agent and simply leave.
Heartbreak in Minneapolis. Heartbreak for a young family. Heartbreak for a city, a state, a country.
An administration can say one thing to try and save face, but the truth rises.
People are at their breaking point, and of course, why wouldn’t they be? Aren’t we all exhausted? Haven’t we all had enough? So many things have brought us here to this moment, where for so many our country is unrecognizable. People are on edge. They are afraid. Life changes in a second. Renee Nicole Good’s family and friends know this truth. There is no going back, only forward.
My fellow citizens: keep your eyes on the truth. Don’t get confused by conflicting stories designed to confuse you. Keep your mind on the facts. Keep trying to rise above.
Keep trying to move humanity out of the darkness and into the light. It’s a new year. We all have to go forward, one step at a time, remembering those we have lost and loved, determined to make life better for those left behind. It’s our job not to give up or in, no matter the foe, be it our own government, be it cancer, be it gun violence, be it a death of someone you love.
Heartbreak abounds, so does courage. Let’s keep rising. It is our only choice.
ICE agents wouldn’t even allow a doctor to go check the pulse of the Renee Nicole Good whom they had shot in Minneapolis.
DOCTOR: Can I go check her pulse?”
ICE: NO!
DOCTOR: I’m A physician!
ICE: I Don’t Care!
These are the monsters of Trump‘s America.
Every single Republican just voted to NOT subpoena information of the ICE killing of Renee Good in Minneapolis.
Simply put: Republicans are covering up a murder at the direction of Trump (because of course they are)
🚨Holy Sh*t🚨
MAGA has tried everything to stop this ad from being aired.
Because ICE is not only kidnapping citizens. Now it's MURDER in Minneapolis
Share this video & follow the ad's creator, @_joejacobson_ since Twitter BANNED his org for exposing the truth!
I grew up under communism in Poland. I know exactly what state harassment looks like.
What I saw in Minneapolis was not law enforcement. It was intimidation, escalation, panic of unqualified law enforcement, then murder.
They surrounded a woman. She tried to leave. She backed away so she would not hit anyone. They shot her anyway and now they lie.
That is how police states work. Start the chaos. Kill. Rewrite the story.
This never ends well.
This was a murder👀
🚨 BREAKING: Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O’Hara just directly contradicted Donald Trump.
O’Hara confirmed Renee Nicole Good was the ONLY person injured in today’s incident.
That flatly contradicts Trump’s claim that an ICE officer was injured and recovering in the hospital.
One of them is lying and it's not the police chief.
A doctor tried to save Renee Good after she was shot in Minneapolis.
ICE agents stopped him.
They claimed they had medics.
They blocked paramedics down the road.
They refused all outside aid.
When the doctor identified himself as a physician, ICE’s response was simple:
“I don’t care.”
That’s a regime that decided she was disposable.
trump, JD Vance, and Kristi Noem have lied about the Minneapolis ICE shooting as if it's the year 1930, and everybody sitting around a damn radio, without TV or video or computers to fact check their blatant lies.
Shooter in the hospital? No.
Renee Hope "attacked him?" No.
She "threw her car" in front of ICE? NO.
There's video, you jackasses.
PROOF that you are lying.
ZERO CREDIBILITY.
The NYT did an excellent job debunking the allegations that Renee Nicole Good was trying to use her vehicle as a weapon. Justice for Renee Nicole Good.

Donald Trump y el Departamento de Seguridad Interna comparten la misma MENTIRA para justificar el asesinato de una mujer en Minneapolis.
El pueblo de Estados Unidos debe despertar. Su gobierno es un peligro para la humanidad entera, incluídos los ciudadanos estadounidenses.
Whomever you think is to blame here, this is a fascinating insight into what’s happened to the minds of some conservatives: “People shouldn’t protest what they see as misuse of government power because they might get killed!” Seriously? This is the essence of American democracy
@JessicaTarlov To anyone with reasonable analytical skills, this is a no-brainer. The ICE officer's actions are indefensible. He should be charged with murder in second degree at the VERY least.
This was a tragedy that demands an independent investigation, not political spin.
We now have video footage from multiple angles that contradicts the administration’s story about the horrific Minnesota shooting. Trump himself wasn’t even aware when the NYT told him.
The officer stepped aside and fired at arm’s length at a moving car even though DOJ policy forbids deadly force to stop a fleeing suspect when no other weapon is present. It’s the rules.
BREAKING: Jessica Tarlov leaves Fox speechless after debunking the lies Trump and his regime have been spreading about the murder of Renee Good.
She brought receipts.
This is called “brandishing” and when you do it to someone’s face, it is legally considered assault.
You do NOT have the right to point a gun in the face of an unarmed protestor, especially when you out number them, and have other options for de-escalation.
This is a CLEAR crime.
