"The tragic murder of Renee Good isn’t the final straw, it’s another straw. Americans cannot let up pressure on this administration. They must continue to fight, demand accountability, demand the release of the full and unredacted Epstein files, continue protesting and pressuring elected officials to stop Trump in any way possible to ensure the midterms are as free and fair as possible."
~ James Fell
Continue to fight? I think for many if not most, there hasn't been a lot of fight shown on the left side of Hitler. Not even a realization that maga leadership and the racist base is already on a war footing, and is arming for escalation.
@aka_quant_noir For many, yes. Far from all, however, as the No Kings protests showed us. For many, there's a sense of despair about knowing how to respond effectively.

"Maya Angelou’s words spring to mind: 'When someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time.'
Vance has told us plainly that he’s a liar who is willing to fabricate narratives and spread misinformation in order to draw political attention to a matter. That means whenever Vance goes before the cameras, we should start from the assumption that he’s out once more to 'create stories.'”
~ Jay Kuo
"When a society begins to treat lethal force as an ordinary instrument of governance, it has already surrendered something essential — not only justice, but imagination. It can no longer envision safety without coercion, or authority without threat. Violence becomes thinkable. Then acceptable. Then routine.
We keep saying: This is not who we are. But is that true anymore?"
~ National Catholic Reporter
"It is as if our very souls have left us. Values once spoken aloud — restraint, accountability, the sanctity of life — now feel quaint, even suspect. Our vice president, who considers himself a committed Catholic of solid standing, calls the ICE shooting a tragedy of the victim's 'own making.'"
"A nation does not renew itself by force. It renews itself when enough people decide that moral exile is unacceptable — and that dignity, once reclaimed, must be defended in public.
We are, finally, at the crossroads — the one we all knew was coming long before Minneapolis.
What remains unknown is which direction we will take."
“A leading Catholic paper [National Catholic Reporter] has branded JD Vance a ‘moral stain’ and accused the vice president of having a ‘twisted and wrongheaded view of Christianity’ for his comments on a woman killed by ICE.”

"A newly released camera perspective of the ICE shooting in Minneapolis has shed additional light on the moments leading up to Renee Nicole Good’s death."

"The previously unseen cellphone footage, obtained and published by Allen Analysis Newsroom, depicts a federal agent’s vantage point of the lethal encounter, and captures audio of at least one ICE agent calling Good a 'fucking bitch' after they shot and killed her."
"If the soul of America comes down to choosing Charlie Kirk or Renee Good, the only answer is: I am Renee Good."
~ Lawrence Winnerman
"Cover ups can be difficult where there is so much video.
"New video footage just made public showed that Good’s last words to ICE agents before driving away from them were: 'That’s fine, dude. I’m not mad at you.' She was shot seconds later. Three times.
Ross’s comment seconds after killing Good: 'Fucking bitch.'”

"Noem: 'The officer went to the hospital. He was hit by the vehicle. He received treatment, was released, and is spending time with his family now.'
… He had no injuries. He received no treatment."
"The new footage further confirms that Good was attempting to drive away from the ICE agent as he shot her in the head.
Somehow, Donald Trump’s administration thinks the video makes their lawless, violent ICE goons look good. Vice President JD Vance shared the video on Twitter, writing: 'Watch this, as hard as it is.'"

"Nothing makes people lose trust in news organizations as much as when they’ve seen something with their own eyes -- and then see news coverage that doesn’t comport with what they themselves experienced.
Case in point: Legacy media coverage of the shooting death of Renee Nicole Good at the hands of an ICE agent earlier this week."

"Millions of people watched the video that clearly shows that Good, a 37-year-old mother of three driving an SUV, was not the aggressor.
And yet – because the constantly lying Trump administration is insisting against all evidence that she was -- the coverage treats that like a debatable point.
Why would you trust a news organization that doesn’t have the integrity and the guts to state an obvious truth?"
