Trump will now try erasing Renee Nicole Good’s humanity

Don’t let him.

A thread.
1. The first thing that should be said about the fatal shooting in Minneapolis by a federal immigration officer is that the victim’s name is Renee Nicole Good.

After the killing of Ms Good, Greg Bovino of the CPB led a raid on a Minneapolis HS. An official there said: They don’t care. They’re just animals,” I’ve never seen people behave like this.”

All MPLS schools now closed for the week.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but cops are not allowed to shoot people just because you didn't do what they said.

That is called murder when they do that.

Some cops are working hard to convince people otherwise.

End ICE. Abolish Qualified Immunity.
ICE fascists murdered Renee Good. Renee's partner died in 2023. They had a 6 year old child.

ICE fascists just orphaned a 6 year old by murdering his mother in broad daylight. They murdered her less than a mile from where Derek Chauvin murdered George Floyd.

Abolish ICE. End Qualified Immunity.

i think it is ok to reiterate that the victim as a us citizen. yes, noncitizens are equally entitled to human rights. but also, it's important to illustrate how ice isn't about immigration at all

For months, Trump’s DHS has wreaked lawless havoc in our neighborhoods. Tear gassing infants, families, and police. Firing their weapons at peaceful citizens. Killing innocent people.

It’s brutal, unconstitutional, and out of control.

It must stop.

Kristi Noem must go. Now.

The woman killed by ICE today was a poet. She won the 2020 Academy of American Poets, University & College Poetry Prize at Old Dominion University.

(And this is Renee from confirmed socials- a photo of a different woman with red lipstick is going around, but that was a classmate.)

When you realize these are the same people were overjoyed to have the right to own slaves, slaughter indigenous people, beat lgtbq people to death, and drop nuclear bombs on their enemies, you'll understand the cruelty is the point, so naturally they think this is fucking hilarious
They’re making fun of the media referring to Kilmar Abrego Garcia as a Maryland man as they threaten to send him to Uganda, a country where he’s never lived.

They’re simply fucking vile.

I was in the news business for only 4 decades, so maybe I don't know much. But it seems like the transformation of the U.S. into a police state would be worth a headline and a few paragraphs.

The same people who pardoned thousands of Nazis for violently beating hundreds of police officers to near death—and likely enabling the death of several officers—want you to know that a 71-year-old Grandma named Barbara Stone allegedly brushing an ICE fascist is what real tyranny looks like. smh
