Years of service and experience alone does not make him a good person. He appeared to move to where he did to create a pretext for shooting her.

Important context to "more/better training" arguments: the murder of Renée Good was a product of that training by someone who has trained others.
(I've seen same in civil rights cases; by moving where he did, he was intentionally generating a pretext to shoot her without genuine risk to himself.)

NEW: Jonathan Ross is former National Guard and Border Patrol and has been part of ICE's SWAT equivalent, a team leader overseeing FBI, ATF, and IRS agents, and a firearms instructor, according to testimony obtained by WIRED. This is from @hudsongiles.bsky.social and me:
ICE Agent Who Reportedly Shot Renee Good Was a Firearms Trainer, Per Testimony
Jonathan Ross told a federal court in December about his professional background, including “hundreds” of encounters with drivers during enforcement actions, according to testimony obtained by WIRED.

Let’s talk about something. The fact that the ICE agent who murdered Renee Good was dragged by a moving vehicle in a prior incident is not a defense, it actually makes the situation much worse for him.

Agreed. They've been in a hurry since Day One, throwing everything at the wall in a drunken mix of triumphalism and desperation, knowing the clock is ticking.
It's precisely because they fear the backlash and running out of time. There's no frog-boiling happening here, they went to 11 immediately.

Many are arguing that they wouldn't be acting this way if they thought they were subject to free & fair elections.
Plausible. But another explanation is that they see the writing on the wall--generational backlash--and they're attempting increasingly desparate hail marys

Texas becomes first state to end American Bar Association oversight of law schools
The Texas Supreme Court on Tuesday finalized a tentative opinion issued in September that no longer requires soon-to-be lawyers to attend a law school accredited by the American Bar Association. The power to approve those law schools now rests with the state's highest civil court.

Like those before it, that insane, vile DHS statement about the Minneapolis shooting isn't about covering anything up. It's performative lying.
They aren't trying to persuade anyone that their agents did nothing wrong. They're trying to project that their agents can get away with anything.
