7:19 PM · Jan 7, 2026"The sheer number of videos of the shooting is horrific, but in the vein of what @ prisonculture social has been saying, it proves how many people cared enough to show up where ICE was and record them. It wasn't just one or two legal observers, and when Good was shot, they didn't abandon her."

Kristi Noem was one of the initial BSers to post disinformation about this event, claiming something like, there were ICE agents trying to get someone's stuck car out of the snow, and this driver just tried to run them over. It's brazen lies from start to end. Then at her press conference:

7:00 PM · Jan 7, 2026"I am impeaching Secretary Kristi Noem, an incompetent leader and disgrace to our democracy.
She wreaked havoc in Chicago area & brought reign of terror to Minneapolis. One of her rogue ICE agents shot & killed an innocent woman today. It must come to an end.
She breaks rule of law and terrorizes communities. Impeaching her for violating public trust, obstructing Congress, and self-dealing:"

... almost immediately, I could hear people in the crowd weeping. Chicago is feeling this loss deeply, as if Renee were one of our own. There’s deep kinship among ppl doing ICE Watch/Rapid Response, from neighborhood to neighborhood and city to city."

So she moved, and they shot her multiple times? Then Noem and Trump branded her a domestic terrorist. Does everyone see how absolutely insane that sounds?"
