I’m at a rally/vigil for Renee Good and other victims of Trump administration violence here in Richmond VA. Several hundred in attendance at Maggie L. Walker Plaza despite the nasty rain.

Before defaulting to “It could have been any of us,” slow down and sit with this: A lesbian couple was targeted and one of them was executed after the other dared to exercise her 1st Amendment rights.

ICE GOON: “Have you not learned from the past few days?”

Let’s stop pretending. He got insulted by lesbians and was already prepared to shoot. That isn’t a mistake or panic. That’s hate. This was a hate crime.

He called her a “fucking bitch” after shooting her in the face THREE TIMES. He had just been insulted by her wife attacking his ego. His hand was on the gun. This was murder with malicious intent. A hate crime.

I’m resharing this now because of what just happened in Minnesota. Because we watched a killing get laundered through official language in real time.

Thanks to the anonymous X commentator who raised this, but here's a song from the same group.

"Well, another Charlottesville wouldn't do us any harm"

Reports and videos show ICE agents asking American citizens whether they’ve “learned their lesson over the last few days” are deeply troubling. Language like this implies intent and raises serious questions about premeditation and mindset on the scene.

I was just denied access to the ICE processing center at the Whipple Building.

Members of Congress have a legal right and constitutional responsibility to conduct oversight where people are being detained.

The public deserves to know what is taking place in ICE facilities.
JUST NOW: Huge mass of agents in a standoff, weapons drawn as Reps. Ilhan Omar, Angie Craig, and Kelly Morrison attempt to conduct congressional oversight at the Whipple Building, which has been HQ for thousands of ICE agents.

He is a homophobic & misogynistic christian male. She was a gay woman with her masc lesbian wife speaking out for the vulnerable. His inability to dominate them made him feel small, so he reacted emotionally. This was a hate crime. But police brutality & dehumanisation are nothing new to lesbians.🥀

He felt emasculated because neither of the women were afraid of him. It is unbelievable the number of people who are perfectly fine with her saying " ... I'm not mad at you" and him blowing her brains out

He executed her because her wife hurt his feelings. And made him look like a pussy. He executed her and drove away.

Stephen Colbert on the ICE murder of Renee Nicole Good: “The message from this administration is clear. Only they determine the truth. And when their forces come to your city: obey or die. And if you die, you clearly didn’t obey. This should be an alarm bell for the entire country.”

From the DOJ Manual. This really bolsters the state's case to bring charges against the agent who killed Renee Good.

Here's the thing. Violence isn’t required, because autocracy depends on compliance...not force alone. When people withdraw consent through mass noncooperation, institutions holding, and legitimacy collapse, power evaporates. History shows regimes fall when obedience stops, not when bloodshed starts.

There are some 20-30k ICE agents. There are approximately 250 million adults in the United States. The idea that we are helpless...is the biggest load of bullshit mindset one can have.
