A crime was committed in Minneapolis & it is very much the jurisdiction of the Minneapolis Police Department and the Minnesota Department of Public Safety to investigate it, up to and including demanding DHS turn over the shooter and holding anybody working for DHS in the state for aiding & abetting
Can Minnesota do an independent investigation and bring state charges?

This is the current front page of the Times. The Washington Post is even worse. Their headlines are privileging the accounts of the administration with a track record of lying as being as valid as eye witness accounts and videos.

Once I had a big fight with a young reporter who insisted the details of a shooting differed from my reporting which was based on videos of the incident. I illustrated how his reporting could not be true & he yelled back I’M A REAL REPORTER WITH LAW ENFORCEMENT SOURCES

anyway that was wes lowery

They're not just doing tyranny, they're doing the *exact* things listed in the Declaration of Independence that the colonists accused the king of. It's surreal

There’s no way any ethical journalist could look at those videos and think the story is anything other than what is clearly in those videos. It’s right there. In multiple videos. And eye-witnesses accounts. There aren’t two sides. There’s one set of very clear videos.

I don’t think the OP meant anything like what I’m taking from that statement, but I’m tired of spending over half my life kicking against the pricks of a morally dead capitalist hellscape to watch hand-wringing about an US that I have constantly and angrily denounced.

Look, I don’t know what to tell yall, but

1) DHS paramilitary troops shooting legal observers to death on sight IS in fact a meaningful escalation and

2) as important as Renee Good’s whiteness is in this conversation, I’m wary of erasing her queerness

A friend in Minneapolis just sent me this video. Looks like thousands have come together for a vigil after an ICE agent shot and killed 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good. This was my neighborhood for several years before coming to Portland.

ICE murders again.

And they will murder again in the future.

Abolish ICE.

ICE is antichrist.

The shooting in Minneapolis isn’t just another headline, it’s a reminder of how far we’ve drifted from our shared humanity. When fear hardens into dehumanization, violence becomes easier to justify and harder to stop.

I did not know that a 1985 Supreme Court ruling (Justice White) prohibits police from opening "fire on someone who is fleeing unless that person presents a serious danger to the officer or others." Clearly not the case here. The driver was either avoiding an ICE grab-and-go or doing as directed.

A federal immigration agent’s killing of a woman driving an SUV fits into a tragic pattern.

A doctor attempted to provide medical aid to Renee Good in Minneapolis. Trump regime ICE troopers stopped him, claimed to have their own medics, while blocking paramedics down the road as well.

When the doctor on scene identified himself as a physician, ICE responded:

"I don't care."

Renee Nicole Good is the one whose reputation should be protected, whose death should be marked by flags across the country being lowered to half-staff, who should be getting tearful tributes and acknowledgments from politicians and media figures. These are the people we ought to honor.

AOC: What we saw today was a criminal murder a woman while she was trying to flee for her life. What we saw today was a manifestation of every American’s worst nightmare: their government turning into a tyranny.
