"The masked ICE agent who shot Good at close range held his cellphone in one hand while firing his gun with the other, showing more interest in spectacle than fear. His video will be added to the DHS library of recordings to generate bloodlust among the type of recruits ICE seeks: Proud Boys, Oath Keepers, Three Percenters, pardoned J-6ers, and basement-dwelling incels craving skin on skin action of any kind."

ICE recruitment uses taxpayer money to target low intellect racists

Before Renee Good’s body was cold, Trump, Noem, and Vance grabbed the national spotlight to defame her (terrorist mows down federal agents!) while defending the goon who murdered her.

"This is no longer immigration action. This is state-sponsored terrorism. It is state-sponsored terrorism. It is a campaign of brutality. ... I don't think any city in America or any state has ever seen this type of lawless behavior by federal law enforcement."

Don Moynihan writes,

"This piece comes someone living and working in Minneapolis, which is experiencing a de facto military occupation right now. They wish to remain anonymous out of concern that their government might retaliate against them for reporting on what life is like there now."

The whole essay is worth reading in full. Here's an excerpt:

"People at risk of abduction are now understandably unwilling to leave home ─ meaning they can’t go to their jobs, and they can’t shop for food and other necessities. Affected kids don’t get meals at school. Local communities are organizing to feed hundreds … thousands? … of terrified families who are hiding from our federal government. Nearly everyone in these families is a U.S. citizen or otherwise legally in the United States."

"Federal agents abduct people and ask questions later; if your skin is not White, you are presumed guilty until proven otherwise. ...

In nearly all immigrant and Black and Latino neighborhoods, there are multiple attempted armed abductions of residents every day. (Such events also happen, albeit less frequently, in more economically privileged neighborhoods: Housecleaners, construction workers, etc. are the targets in those cases.)"

Marisa Kabas also offers from-the-spot testimony from Minnesota. Her piece features Alice Valentine, who was apprehended along with her girlfriend as they tried to monitor ICE brutality towards immigrants in St. Cloud. Valentine speaks of the racism combined with misogyny and homophobia she witnessed.
