Renée Good's last seconds alive with the man about to shoot her remind me of Elijah McClain saying, "You are beautiful and I love you" before he was killed. We have to end this brutality.

Renee Good's final words: "its ok dude, I'm not mad at you"

ICE thug's first words after killing her: "fucking bitch"

What an encapsulation of the Trump movement's so-called embrace of "masculinity" and the boys it attracts. Violent, savage, weakness. Murderous rage and insecurity towards women.

this is the bare minimum i expect from anyone that wants my vote
Congress must address Kristi Noem's failed leadership, up to and including impeachment. But that alone is insufficient.

The entire chain of command who have enabled a culture of murder must face justice.

I think (hope doesn't feel like the right word to use) Renee Good's murder will be the mobilizing moment that the right hoped Kirk's would be. Just not in support of their cause, but in renewed outrage for its destruction.

Remember, when Vance was caught spewing racist lies that Haitian immigrants were eating people's pets, he admitted that "if I have to create stories so that the American media actually pays attention to the suffering of the American people, then that's what I'm going to do."

Proudly, openly a liar.

Continually sickened by the misogyny and homophobia that runs through this whole affair--from the words of her murderer to the many attempts by conservatives to devalue her life since
In the video that the shooter took, which I believe was leaked to be exculpatory, he appears to yell “fucking bitch” after he shoots Renee Good.

we can agree this is absolutely the case while also recognizing in their haste to dehumanize her they willingly turned over evidence proving them to be liars
they didn’t leak it to make the shooter look innocent, but to make the victim look guilty. not guilty of a crime. guilty of having a visibly queer wife. guilty of liberalism. guilty of opposing the regime. they don’t seek to exonerate themselves, only to demonstrate who deserves to die.

i have watched the shooter's video. it's going to make you way the fuck madder.
I have watched the video. I think you probably do not need to watch the video. it shows what you think it's gonna show in terms of lack of justification.

Good’s last words to the ICE agent: “That’s fine. I’m not mad at you.”

His to her, after shooting her in the face: “Fuckin’ bitch.”
🚨 NEW VIDEO 👇🏽This puts an end to all the lies. Horrific.

They were having a calm exchange seconds before he murdered Renee Good, and she was barely moving and clearly avoiding him.

Stop the lies.

If the video Hayes is referencing here is authentic, then Good was murdered in cold blood by a man who had no reason to be afraid because he was angry at her for talking back.
And Renee Good’s last words appear to be “We’re not mad at you.”

She smiles at the man who shoots her and says she isn't mad at him. Clearly initiates the effort to leave when the aggressive agents arrive.
The question now (not that this was in question) isn't who's telling the truth. It's when DHS had this video and knew that what they were saying was a lie.

the Right is about to be working overtime to try everything in their power (and also outside their power) to keep this from happening, because there is nothing more dangerous to them than people realizing the scary socialist policies actually work to improve their lives

“.. the United States has broken with the values that it helped to establish ..

“.. we have now moved beyond the stage where we can lament the lack of respect for international law or the erosion of the international order; we are far beyond that, I believe.”

I think Stephen Miller wants an ICE agent to get shot and is creating the conditions for that to happen.

NEW: Data released by ICE shows that virtually the entire growth of detention in the last few months has been among people with no criminal record at all - no prior convictions (no matter how minor) and no pending criminal charges.

This is Porter. He became paralyzed after a spinal stroke. After weeks of physical therapy, this was the moment he realized he can feel his legs again. 14/10 we're so happy for him (IG: emmagraceferguson_)

I am gonna take a wild guess here that ICE is going to murder folks in blue cities as long as there is no significant push back.

Remembering today that having your heart broken is a necessary step on the path to becoming fully human. Whichever heartbreak is your first, it’s probably critical that a state break your heart so that you can develop a political imagination. If this is your first, I’m sorry and also welcome.

weirdly silent about ICE killing an unarmed woman in cold blood, surely there's no politics at play here
Violence is always unacceptable, and threats of violence have no place in public discourse. Our thoughts are with Charlie Kirk and his family.
