Not an exaggeration at all to say that the feeling in Minneapolis is that the entire metro area is being treated as occupied territory by federal agents. Impossible to overstate how overwhelmingly people here do not like it. This does not feel sustainable.

It should be bigger news that masked agents were filmed hours ago removing potentially inculpatory evidence from the ICE shooter's house, clearly lacking evidence tags or chain of custody stickers.

Before we have word on whether he underwent a toxicology screen at the hospital following the killing

This is what Dem leaders need to understand. The murder yesterday and the shootings today in Portland are the result of POLICY. This is exactly what they intend. If you collaborate with the GOP in any way, blood is on your hands too.

New in PN: The dehumanization machine speeds up

"Months after the nation and world were appalled by George Floyd’s murder, it became an event with two different truths. With the killing of Good, the right has not even deigned to admit the heinousness of the event before deciding she had it coming."
The right-wing dehumanization machine is speeding up

I wonder how many reporters at CBS News were assigned to do this too
I am sure that Miller Noem Trump and their flying monkeys are right this minute digging into Renee Good’s entire life history and that of every person with whom she’s ever interacted, desperately searching for “justification” for her murder by ICE.

Almost like despite proclamations to the contrary, they are getting the message that they can use “vehicle as a deadly weapon“ as an excuse to fire on people
“.. In the last four months alone, immigration officers have fired on at least nine people in five states and Washington, D.C. All of the individuals targeted in those shootings were, like the woman killed on Wednesday, fired on while in their vehicles.”

You and your wife drop your 6-year-old off at school. You just moved here. You see ICE terrorizing your new neighbors. You film them, as is your legal right. Your wife complies with orders. She is then shot in the head. You still have to pick up your child later today.

This could be you.

The Minnesota woman who died today was apparently a mother. Someone close to the family and who has access to a lawyer should help set up GoFundMe. IMO, the money should go directly into a trust, which should go directly to the child when they are 18 years old, not an intermediary family member.

Does this mean anything? Stop treat DOJ as if it’s even a semi-neutral arbiter.
