Violent interactions with the public aren’t surprising, a former ICE official said of the agency under Trump.

“That’s sort of by design.”
Former members of ICE say recent violence is "by design"
"What has changed is there has been an encouragement from the top to be much more aggressive in enforcement."

Read this story and decide if this is the America you want to live in.

ICE saw a Latino man driving a car. Chased him down and rammed him. Just because he wasn’t white.

He was just a guy - an American citizen - driving to the auto shop.

A masked federal immigration officer killed Renée Nicole Good, a 37-year-old mother and poet, shooting her at point-blank range in her car.

The incident is far from the first time immigration officers have shot someone in recent months.
Cops are taught not to shoot into cars. ICE keeps doing it anyway.
Immigration agents have shot at least nine people since September. All of them have been in cars.

Renée Good is one of at least nine people across the country who have been shot by immigration agents since September. There is something every case has in common:

Everyone was in a vehicle at the time of the shooting.

I’ve watched the video multiple times. An American citizen was murdered in cold blood by ICE agents because Donald Trump has empowered them to act with impunity.

This is a nightmare. This crime must immediately be investigated and prosecuted to the full extent of the law.

It is entirely consistent to hate Maduro & strongly condemn the decision to remove him by force.

Trump did not seek & Congress did not grant authorization for this use of force.

Under our Constitution & laws, that makes it ILLEGAL.

You have to go through Congress for anything resembling this type of war. Round up Massie and Paul types and have him removed. The people in this administration are on actual drugs and have insatiable bloodlust and bespoke mental illnesses. He has to go, and everybody with him.

Moulton: "When we had briefings on Venezuela, we asked, 'Are you going to invade the country?' We were told no. 'Do you plan to put troops on the ground?' We were told no. 'Do you intend regime change in VZ?' We were told no. So in a sense, we have been briefed, we've just been completely lied to"
