DHS’s initial pronouncement about that case was incredibly similar to what they put out in this case.
They don’t have many BS stories to pull from.

That's not entirely clear, but it is red herring. Whether she was illegally and deliberately blocking traffic, or simple pulled into the lane but was waiting, or whatever she was doing - ICE did not have the right to do what they did. People have a right to protest, and they may be arrested if they break the law, but they should not be killed unless they are trying to kill someone else. She was not trying to kill ICE agent Ross.
He put himself into harm's way, stupidly.
He walked right in front of her car, immediately pulled his gun, and shot her.
He was standing to the side of her car, safe and sound. He suddenly walked right in front of her car and, within a second, drew his weapon and fired into her face.
That's something you do in wartime, to an enemy. That's not what you do for a traffic infraction for someone who has committed no violent crime, is not suspected of committing a serious crime; who is at most obstructing traffic on a small, residential, one-way street - perhaps "disorderly conduct" or a misdemenor at worst.

After that incident, he must have gone through extensive retraining on how to approach a vehicle. And from the front is not an approved method.

Boy's in BIG trouble.
What trouble? They’ve already said they’re not going to prosecute.
He would be in big trouble if we had a functional government that held it agents accountable. We do not. Have a criminal gang that will protect its own.
Even if someone tried to prosecute him, Trump would pardon him. He pardoned the J6 domestic terrorists who killed Capitol police and some drug kingpins. Pardoning ICE would be no big deal
Not if it isn’t federal.
Correct. Both the state and the feds could investigate this shooting and prosecute if the facts warrant it, just like Derek Chauvin and the other officers in the George Floyd case. However after this shooting, it seems like the feds are refusing to even investigate, and they aren’t cooperating with the state so the state can’t investigate/prosecute if necessary either.
Even if Minnesota was allowed access to conduct a full investigation, if they file charges against Ross the US Attorney has the discretion to remove the action to federal court under the supremacy clause because it’s a federal agent acting under federal authority. The US Attorney could then choose to dismiss the case. And even if the USA didn’t remove the case to federal court, under the federal agent statutes Ross could demand the removal himself.
It’s a bit less clear whether a state action prosecuted in federal court could be pardoned by the president, but given the many powers this SCOTUS has in recent years granted to the executive, it’s possible they would grant that one as well.
This former defender and prosecutor is certainly hoping that Ross will eventually face justice and prison, but pragmatically speaking I realize it’s possible he just won’t.
Well, if he doesn’t get justice the legal way…someone might commit justice the old fashion way.
Even if he never gets the justice he deserves he will live out his days as a joke like Zimmerman or Rittenhouse, most likely.
Both of those people are firmly in white supremacist circles where they have profited 100s of thousands if not millions of dollars in Rittenhouse's case.

I’m willing to bet the killer is going to go into grift mode.
Renee Nicole Good, 37, was a US citizen sh0t and kill3d by an ICE agent in Minneapolis. 🕊🖤
-She lived in the Twin Cities with her partner and had moved there from Kansas City last year.
-Good was a mother of three: two children (15 and 12) from her first marriage and a 6-year-old from her second.
-She spent most of her life in Colorado and lived briefly in Kansas after her husband, a military veteran, di3d.
-The father of her youngest child di3d in 2023; family members said the boy has no other parental figure.
-Good co-hosted a podcast with her late second husband, Tim Macklin.
-She was described as a devoted Christian, participated in youth mission trips, and had a passion for singing.
-She studied vocal performance and later creative writing, earning an English degree in 2020 and winning a writing prize that year.
-On social media, Good described herself as a “poet and writer and wife and mom,” sharing moments of her life in Minneapolis.
“Renee was one of the kindest people I’ve ever known. She was extremely compassionate,” her mother, Donna Ganger, said. “She’s taken care of people all her life.

There has been another shooting with Border Patrol in Portland, Oregon. No details yet on this one.
Oh, Portland?
Oh boy.
They will need the NG.
2020 re run incoming. The admin has a year to get things done and I think the urgency has set in.
