They murdered Renee

First up, Katie PHang.



Graham Platner is a fake ass with a history that should bar him from running for office.  Sam Seder and other crap ass fakes back him the same way they back FettyCrap.  I bring that up because FettyCrap is back in the news and it's not good:

Once again, Democrat John Fetterman continues his crusade against his party’s own interests.

The Pennsylvania senator shared his thoughts on the Trump administration’s push to acquire Greenland in a post on X on Wednesday, parroting talking points shared by some of his GOP colleagues.

“I believe Greenland has massive strategic benefits for the United States,” Fetterman, 56, wrote. “I do not support taking it by force. America is not a bully.”
“Ideally, we purchase it—similar to our purchases of Alaska or the Louisiana Purchase," he continued. “Acquiring Greenland is a many decades old conversation.”

Since the clandestine U.S. military operation in Venezuela that led to the abduction of President Nicolas Maduro and his wife, President Donald Trump and his closest cronies have expressed their desire to expand their imperialist desires outside of just one South American country.

We do not need FettyCrap in the Senate and we don't need the racist, homophobe Platner either.  It's amazing.  There's a woman in the race and her name is Janet Mills.  She's 78.  That is old.  But she's not shown any slippage.  She's also someone who stood up to Donald.  And she's the governor of Maine.

Can Platner get statewide votes for the office of senators?  No one knows.  He's a political novice.  And Janet?  Uh, she's governor.  That means she's already done that -- get turnout from around the state to hold the office she holds.  And, in fact, this is her second term as governor.  So two times she has face Maine voters -- the whole state, not just a district -- and the whole state has voted for her.

So the fake ass Sam Seders are telling you to listen to them even though they're known liars and known backstabbers.  They just KNOW Platner can do what Mills has done -- what she has done twice.  There's no proof that he can do it.  But he's a 'he' and they're all about crotch rubbing up to some red neck White idiot with a racist past and sexism and homophobia captured all over the internet.  

Bernie last ran for election in 2024.  And he was 84 years old.  But Sam and the other 'bros' who whore and lie for Planter never called for Bernie to step aside.  They did make that call for Nancy Pelosi to step down.  We're never supposed to notice that.

As if Trump's going to let them refuse and just walk away.  Fetterman is being delusional.  Denmark doesn't want to let Greenland go and Greenland doesn't want to go.  We're up to our eyeballs in debt now and the dollar is tanking.  Where's the money coming from, the Tooth Fairy?

Fetterman should know that having Greenland and its parent, Denmark, would be much greater advantage as friends and allies than as acquired territory.  Greenlanders have already expressed their disdain for the idea, and therefore will not be willing ... and supportive.
Fetterman disappoints many, and his turncoat behavior may give irrelevant support to those also who don't like his fashion sense,

Obviously Fetterman isn't well--If the WH more-on tried to annex Greenland which is an autonomous territory within the Kingdom of Denmark, which is a full NATO member, it would be an attack on Denmark. Unfortunately, if it was to happen it would end NATO, since it cannot retaliate against a super power. What could happen is this, countries could begin withdrawal from NATO and it would dissolve since it is not aligned with the 21 century, and Europe and the Nordics already have the architecture for a new force which could take effect, be voted on and the US would be barred from joining, leaving the country as a stand alone with no global protection. Denmark could close the base on Greenland and demand the US vacate, allowing Finland, or Norway, or Sweden to occupy the base, and strengthen the Arctic/Nordic area. since NATO would end, countries could begin selling the Treasury bonds it holds and that would destabilize the dollar, stocks would fall and the US would be unable to secure loans, and a recession/depression would follow.

Fetterman didn't "break ranks."  He's just continuing to reveal himself as a closet "Trumpist."  I hope the Dems find someone to challenge him in a primary.  Perhaps he'll even emerge from his sweatshirt hoodie chrysalis as a Republican moth, and the Dems can run a true Dem against him.



FettyCrap's not going to be happy until he's on top of Chump and pumping up Donald's fat and saggy butt.  Speaking of Elderly Pink Hair, Cassie Mellea (THE HILL) reports



Trump moved quickly to try to contain the fallout and defend federal agents, claiming the woman “viciously ran over” the ICE officer despite footage showing the officer in front of her vehicle remaining on his feet and proceeding to fire into the side of her vehicle as it turned to leave.

The president, who said he watched video of the incident, called the woman “very disorderly, obstructing and resisting” in his Truth Social post while saying the officer “seems to have shot her in self defense.” He said the situation is being reviewed “in its entirety” but backed federal agents.
[. . .]

But Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey (D) rejected DHS’s description of the incident as an instance of self-defense.

“Having seen the video of myself, I want to tell everybody directly that is bulls‑‑‑,” Frey said during a press conference. “This was an agent recklessly using power that resulted in somebody dying, getting killed.”

Frey called on ICE to “get the f— out” of the city.

“We do not want you here,” he said. “Your stated reason for being in this city is to create some kind of safety, and you are doing the exact opposite.”

Democrats have widely denounced ICE’s conduct, accusing the Trump administration of being responsible for setting the conditions that led to the shooting.

“[Trump’s] reckless decision to escalate the aggression and number of immigration agents is a causal factor,” Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison said in a post on X.

They murdered Renee Nicole Good.  That's the reality.

ICE is a violent gang of thugs serving the fascist Trump administration who are getting away with killing, terrorizing and kidnapping innocent people. The American people want them out of their states and cities and the governors of every state should order their national guard and state police to protect the lives of the people of their state and remove this out-of-control violent outlaw gang from their cities and state.

ICE Barbie "Noem" and her jackboot nazi officers are all guilty of murder. Anyone that watches the video can see that the nazi criminal officer firing the shots, was not hit by any vehicle and his life was never in any danger. The woman was trying to leave to avoid being detained for no apparent reason. They stopped her vehicle and rushed it trying to pull open the door and drag her out without explaining anything and when she screamed and tried to drive away, the gun-crazy nazi officer shot twice at her head through the windshield and side window. If this woman did anything that was against the law, get her plate number and then go to her home with local police and arrest her. There was NO need for this excessive deadly force. These nazi ICE agents need to be prosecuted for their crimes along with Noem and anyone hiding and lying about the truth should also be charged. I also thought these nazi thugs were not supposed to be wearing masks anymore.

It's all DHS fabrication.  At least three ICE goons were visible around the suspects car.  One of them decides I'll just shoot her in the head!  Aren't these people trained in any other way.  It appears the driver was turning the vehicle away from the ICE thugs, not at them.  This was outright murder and requires a life sentence, and Noem and Trump are complicit.




 


Here;s C.I.'s "The Snapshot:"

Thursday, January 8, 2025. The gestapo force of the Donald Chump regime shoots a woman in the face and refuses to allow a doctor on the scene to examine her, the murder carried out by ICE is just the latest in a long line of crimes the out of control and unaccountable body has been carrying out, US House Rep Robin Kelly calls for Kristi Noem's impeachment, the Epstein scandal continues to follow Chump, and much more. 

Donald Chump's gestapo has gotten away with a lot during their ICE operations but yesterday they murdered an unarmed American citizen.  

 



Daniel Villarreal (LGBTQ NATION) notes that her  name was  Renee Nicole Good and she was 37-years-old.  Amanda Muso (CNN) adds:

 A former neighbor in Kansas told CNN affiliates KCTV and KMBC Good and her family “were lovely.”

She is “a neighbor who, you know, is not a terrorist. Not an extremist,” Joan Rose told KMBC. “That was just a mom who loved her kids, loved her spouse.”     

[. . .]

She is “a neighbor who, you know, is not a terrorist. Not an extremist,” Joan Rose told KMBC. “That was just a mom who loved her kids, loved her spouse.”     




A Minnesota woman sitting in the snow with her dog told a person filming her that Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents had just shot and killed her wife — now identified as Renee Nicole Good, 37 — according to newly circulating video that has intensified scrutiny of a fatal federal shooting during a sweeping immigration enforcement operation in south Minneapolis on Wednesday.

“They killed my wife. I don’t know what to do,” the woman says through sobs in the footage, with a damaged SUV visible in the distance behind her. "We stopped to videotape, and they shot her in the head,” the woman cries.

“We have a 6-year-old at school,” she says, almost unable to breathe, as a chaotic scene in which federal officers prevented at least one doctor who was on the scene from assisting the shot victim unfolds. “We’re new here,” the distraught woman says in despair.


They killed her, they murdered her.  In cold blood.  That's the ICE agent who shot her, that's the other agents present and that is Kristi Noem and Donald Chump who are behind one illegal action after another.  

One moment, she was a woman with kids and a wife gearing up to celebrate her sister's January 7th birthday and the next she was gone.  Murdered.

"First they lie,"  Lawrence O'Donnell noted on MS NOW last night. "I say this from long, weary experience with the subject."


Convicted Felon Donald Chump is a liar with dementia.  I don't care which is impacting him more, he needs to stop lying.  If the dementia is now solely responsible, that's reason to remove from office. Mike Stunson (FORBES) reports:


President Donald Trump claimed a Minnesota woman “violently, willfully and viciously” ran over an ICE officer before she was shot and killed by the agent Wednesday, defending the officer’s actions as Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz and other critics expressed concern that the Trump administration’s statement on the incident do not align with video evidence.
Video from the scene, shared on social media, shows the driver of the SUV crashed into a pole after three shots were fired from a man who appears to be a federal agent.

Trump said the agent was acting in self defense and blamed the incident on the “Radical Left.”

Walz, who saw the video of the shooting and tweeted, “Don’t believe this propaganda machine,” told reporters Wednesday the fatal shooting occurred because of the federal government’s “dangerous, sensationalized operations,” adding, “What we're seeing is the consequences of governance designed to generate fear, headlines and conflict.”

Sen. Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn., said in a statement that comments made by the Department of Homeland Security defending the shooting “do not appear to reflect video evidence and on-the-ground accounts.”

Stop lying.   But they can't.  All they do is lie over and over.  Zolan Kanno-Youngs (NEW YORK TIMES) notes that a group of NYT journalists were interviewing Chump yesterday and when they disputed his assertions, he demanded that they watch the video together.  And Chump then continued his lies making claims that the video didn't support.  You can click here for a video analysis THE TIMES has done of the video -- it's a video report that also has a transcript option.


Lawrence notes Kristi Noem's multiple lies and Chump's lies.

Their lies are not new.  Dropping back to October for Ava and my "Media: They fail to note the pattern of ICE lies but make time to defend this year's John Fetterman:"


Those are the signs of an out of control federal agency and those are the actions of Chump's gestapo force.  The actions are shocking, yes, and illegal.

The actions are also not all that surprising considering who gets hired by ICE and who provides purported oversight of ICE.  Who gets hired?  The lowest of the low.  Charles P. Pierce (ESQUIRE) pull quoted from an NBC NEWS report and this might be the most disturbing part of that report:

 

Nearly half of new recruits who’ve arrived for training at the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center over the past three months were later sent home because they couldn’t pass the written exam, according to the data. The academic requirement includes an exam in which officers are allowed to consult their textbooks and notes at the end of a legal course on the Immigration and Nationality Act and the Fourth Amendment, which outlines when officers can and can’t conduct searches and seizures.

 

"Oh my goodness!  They almost hired those people!"

 

No, that's not it.  It's that they hired the others -- those 'trained' people who required an open book final exam.  They weren't expected or required to know the law.  You see that reflected in their conduct repeatedly.

 

Not just with regards to their attack on the US citizen and Iraq War veteran George Retes, but on people all across the country.  They are a lawless body that terrorizes in the streets of America.   

 

They terrorize pregnant womenThey terrorize the challenged and/or disabled.  Who is safe on the streets of America when ICE is let loose?  Children?  They're tear gassing children.  When they're not zip-tying them.

 

And there is no oversight.  

They're a department of liars led by the lying Homeland Secuirty Secretary Kristi Noem.

  

ICE rammed a car in Chicago -- ran into it -- and they lied in statements and false charges insisting that  Dayanne Figueroa, a US citizen, ran into them:

 

Footage obtained by Newsweek appears to show armed federal agents detaining Figueroa, dragging her by the legs to remove her from her vehicle. Some agents brandish guns, and bystanders can be heard shouting, “You hit her,” as the situation unfolds.

Additional video obtained by Figueroa’s family from another witness provides a different angle of the encounter. The bystander who is filming tells federal agents: “You hit her. We all saw it.”
“You guys are f*****g scumbags, f*****g Nazis. They hit her car. You guys hit her, and you f*****g know it,” the bystander is heard saying.

“As agents were departing, the driver, a U.S. citizen, struck an unmarked government vehicle,” DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin told Newsweek.
 

Tricia, like Kristi, is a repeat offender when it comes to lying to the American people. Nicole Charky-Chami (RAW STORY) notes:



A senior ICE official is under fire after publicly sharing a 13-year-old child's information — and an expert warns it "could lead to serious consequences."

DHS spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin, 31, who is the most senior public affairs official under Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, revealed the identity, alleged criminal history and a photo of the child detained by ICE, The Daily Beast reported Monday.

McLaughlin is accused of sharing children's information not just once, but multiple times.

Her social media post and the DHS actions “could lead to serious consequences inside the government, such as an Inspector General investigation, disciplinary action, or even congressional scrutiny," Los Angeles-based criminal defense attorney Arash Hashemi told The Beast.
Public anger was rising after a Brazilian-born seventh-grader in Massachusetts was reportedly taken by federal agents to a juvenile detention center more than 500 miles away from his family.

In an attempt to stop the public criticism, McLaughlin and DHS tried to use social media.

"They claimed that the boy had an 'extensive rap sheet,' while listing some of his apparent past offenses. They also stated—falsely, it transpired—that he had been in possession of a firearm," The Beast reports.

It's illegal for DHS or law enforcement to share a child's information.


 And here's where the media keeps failing us.  Homeland Security officials have been caught in one lie after another.  It's so bad that judges can't really take their claims seriously at this point.  But the media too often repeats claims regarding ICE without noting the long pattern of lies from them this year.  

 

We were all taught about the little boy who cried wolf.  You don't lie because you'll be known as a liar and the time will come when you need to be believed but you're known as a liar.  

 

A lesson we're taught as children is too much for ICE and the officials over ICE to grasp. That might be shocking if we hadn't already addressed the relaxed 'standards' when it comes to hiring ICE agents.


Those present, including Minnesota law enforcement, have called out ICE's lies, Chump's lies and Kristi's lies.  A US citizen was murdered in cold blood, shot in the face, denied medical treatment (a doctor was among the witnesses of the murder and ICE refused to let the doctor approach and examine Renee) and Donald and company think they can act like nothing happened.

Some coverage.




 

 



 

 

 


 

Let's wind down with this from US House Rep Robin Kelly's office:

January 7, 2026

WASHINGTON – Today, U.S. Rep. Robin Kelly (IL-02) announced plans to impeach Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem following the fatal shooting by an ICE officer in Minneapolis

“Secretary Kristi Noem is an incompetent leader, a disgrace to our democracy, and I am impeaching her for obstruction of justice, violation of public trust, and self-dealing. Secretary Noem wreaked havoc in the Chicagoland area, and now, her rogue ICE agents have unleashed that same destruction in Minneapolis, fatally shooting Renee Nicole Good,” said Rep. Kelly. “From Chicago to Charlotte to Los Angeles to Minneapolis, Secretary Noem is violating the Constitution while ruining—and ending—lives, and separating families. It’s one thing to be incompetent and dangerous, but it’s impeachable to break the rule of law. I told my constituents and Chicagoans that I would fight against Secretary Noem’s agenda. This is me fighting back.”

Rep. Kelly will file three articles of impeachment against Secretary Noem: 

  1. Obstruction of Congress: Secretary Noem willfully obstructed Congressional oversight and withheld Congressionally appropriated funds in violation of her constitutional oath and federal law.
  2. Violation of Public Trust: Secretary Noem compromised public safety, violated due process of American citizens, and directed unconstitutional actions.
  3. Self-Dealing: Secretary Noem abused her office for personal benefit and steered federal dollars to associates.
