An FBI investigation is underway after an ICE officer fatally shot a woman in southern Minneapolis on Wednesday, in an incident characterized very differently by local and federal officials.
Renee Nicole Good, 37, was shot behind the wheel of an SUV near the intersection of 34th Street and Portland Avenue just before 10:30 a.m. CT. U.S. President Donald Trump and Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem both described the woman as an agitator who had been interfering with ICE agents on scene.
Noem, a central figure in Trump’s immigration crackdown, said Good ignored officers’ orders to get out of her vehicle and “weaponized” the SUV by deliberately trying to ram into the officer. She said the agent shot the driver three times in self-defence.
Remember they want the FBI to make it a federal crime so Trump can pardon them. State level prosecution is necessary to avoid this.
Walz ordering the National Guard to shoot ICE on sight is what’s necessary.
He could just put out an arrest warrant
Federal officials aren’t immune from State laws
maybe in theory, but not in practice so far
they’re not immune to getting shot in the face, though
Not just in theory, it’s very much a thing in practice as well
The states are semi-sovereign legal zones. They have extradition and their own court systems and everything
Also, the FBI is currently run by Kash “Bug Eyes” Patel, another one of Trump’s picks. If he gets put in charge of any “investigation” he’s going to say that ICE did nothing wrong.
