What We Know About The Victim In Fatal ICE Shooting
United States Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem defended ICE agents, claiming they acted in self-defense by killing 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis.
- 19 minutes
A woman in Minneapolis, Minnesota,
was fatally shot by an Ice agent today.
Now, this story is still developing.
I'm sure those who follow
this type of news on social media
have come across the multiple videos
that have gone viral of the tragic event.
[00:00:16]
But the victim was described as a 37
year old white woman, and that's according
to Minneapolis police officials.
And soon after this story broke,
we had a little more clarity
in terms of the identity of this woman.
So she's 37 year old. Renee.
[00:00:33]
Good.
Nicole. Good.
Renee. Nicole.
Good.
Her bio on social media stated that she
was a poet, a writer, a wife, and a mom.
And that she was from Colorado
but experiencing Minneapolis, Minnesota.
She is now unfortunately dead
as a result of an Ice agent shooting her.
[00:00:53]
Now, later in this segment,
we're going to show you what I think is
the clearest video of the incident.
But first, let me give you
some more context.
So witnesses along with video evidence,
do contradict the claims that are being
made by federal officials who allege that
the shooting happened in self-defense.
[00:01:13]
I'm sure that there will be many
who defend the Trump administration,
especially when it comes
to his, deportations
and his deployment of Ice agents.
They're going to see the video
and they're going to say, no, no, no,
she tried to run them over.
I have a different take.
We're going to watch the video
and the slow, you know,
[00:01:30]
the slow down version as well.
And you can judge for yourselves.
But here's what the feds are saying.
So soon after the shooting was reported,
Tricia Tricia McLaughlin,
who is the assistant secretary
deputy of Homeland Security,
says on X that today Ice officers
in Minneapolis
[00:01:47]
were conducting targeted operations when
rioters began blocking Ice officers and
one of these violent rioters
weaponized her vehicle attempting
to run over our law enforcement officers
in an attempt to kill them.
[00:02:03]
An act of domestic terrorism.
So these are very strong words.
I want you to remember them
as we watch the video.
But let me continue
with the rest of what she had to say.
An Ice officer fearing for his life.
She says the lives of his fellow law
enforcement and the safety of the public
[00:02:21]
fired defensive shots.
He used his training and saved his
own life and that of his fellow officers.
So here's what DHS Secretary
Kristi Noem had to say.
Here's her account.
[00:02:38]
It was an act of domestic terrorism.
What happened?
It was our Ice officers
were out in an enforcement action.
They got stuck in the snow because of the
adverse weather that is in Minneapolis.
They were attempting to push out their
vehicle, and a woman attacked them
and those surrounding them
and attempted to run them over
[00:02:54]
and ram them with her vehicle.
An officer of ours acted quickly
and defensively shot to protect himself
and the people around him.
And my understanding is,
is that she was hit and is deceased.
[00:03:09]
So you now have the perspective
of the federal government there
claiming, well, these Ice agents,
they were in imminent danger.
They had they were being run over.
They were being run over.
Okay.
Well, luckily there were witnesses
on the scene who filmed the entire thing.
[00:03:24]
There are multiple videos
from multiple angles.
I've watched as many of them
as I could find.
This one happened to be
the clearest one in my view.
So we're going to watch the video
as it was filmed in real time,
and then we're going to watch
the slowed down version of it.
I want you to pay attention
to the placement of the federal agents.
[00:03:42]
I want you to pay attention to the wheels
of her vehicle and where they are turning,
because I think that's important.
I want you to focus on the speed
in which she is moving her vehicle.
With all of that in mind,
here is the video showing what happened.
[00:03:57]
Take a quick look.
No. No. No. Shame.
[00:04:17]
Shame.
Oh my God! What the.
What the.
You just. What the did you do?
So before we get to the slow down version
of the video, I want to reiterate
[00:04:34]
what we heard from DHS or what we
read from DHS that there were riots.
There were violent rioters present.
Look, we don't have
the full context, right?
So we don't know what happened
before that video
or that phone started filming that video.
[00:04:51]
But as far as what we saw,
was there a violent riot?
I didn't see a violent riot in that video.
Now more information could emerge
that shows otherwise.
But now they also claim that the driver
was attempting to run the Ice agent over.
[00:05:08]
It looked to me that she was slowly
pulling forward and moving the wheel
of her vehicle, the wheels of her vehicle,
to evade the police
or to evade the Ice agents.
Now you can say, well, evading officials,
evading law enforcement is wrong,
[00:05:25]
and that's fair.
If you want to say that that does not
justify shooting and killing an American
citizen or shooting and killing anyone.
Now people are asking,
what was the Ice agent supposed to do?
I'll show you what he was supposed to do.
Move out of the way.
I didn't even need training for that.
Move out of the way!
[00:05:43]
He had enough time to reach for his gun,
but he didn't have enough time
to move out of the way.
Dhs official also claimed
that the two Ice agents were injured.
[00:05:59]
Did they look injured to you?
So that's my perception of it.
Now let's watch the slowed down version of
the video and pay attention to the wheels
of her vehicle, because that'll show you
that she wasn't trying to run into him.
She's trying to evade the Ice agent.
Take a look.
[00:06:40]
So we've heard from the federal government
attempting to defend themselves after
this pretty damning incident took place.
And by the way, this is with the backdrop
of all these other cases in
which Ice agents have brutalized people,
including American citizens.
[00:06:57]
And we're going to get to that context
in just a second,
because I'm going to show you the goods.
But because of that video that I just
showed you, the mayor of Minneapolis,
Jacob Frey or Frey, I should say,
weighed in and said, you know,
these claims that the Ice agents did
[00:07:13]
this in self-defense is BS. Take a look.
They are not here
to cause safety in this city.
What they are doing
is not to provide safety in America.
What they are doing
is causing chaos and distrust.
[00:07:31]
They're ripping families apart.
They're sowing chaos on our streets.
And in this case,
quite literally killing people.
So they are already trying to spin this
as an action of self-defense.
[00:07:50]
Having seen the video of myself,
I want to tell everybody directly that is.
This was an agent recklessly using power
that resulted in somebody dying.
[00:08:06]
And as you can imagine,
Trump had a very different take
because he wants to defend this type of
state sponsored violence against everyone.
Doesn't matter
if you're an immigrant or not.
An immigrant doesn't matter
if you're an American citizen or not.
I mean, this is the type
of state sponsored violence that we are
[00:08:26]
now living under in the United States.
You don't like the fact
that she's trying to evade authorities?
That's fine. How about you arrest her?
But in that moment,
you have a choice to make.
As an Ice agent, you either gun down
[00:08:41]
and kill an American citizen, or you just
move out of the way and you catch up with
her later and press charges against her.
But that's not what happened.
Here's what Trump said.
[00:08:56]
I have just viewed the clip of the event,
which took place
in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
It is a horrible thing to watch.
I agree with that part.
But, he continues, the woman screaming
was obviously a professional agitator,
and the woman driving the car
was very disorderly,
[00:09:13]
obstructing and resisting,
who then violently, willfully
and viciously ran over the ice.
Officer.
Did you see an Ice officer get run over?
Because I didn't like the gaslighting
is out of control, man.
[00:09:29]
It's out of control.
And this is what Trump does.
This is the only thing
Trump is really good at.
He's really good at looking at a fire
and telling himself,
how can I make this worse?
Oh, look, I've got a gallon of gasoline.
Let me go ahead
and pour it all over the fire.
[00:09:46]
There are mass protests taking place
in Minnesota right now.
Rather than calming things down
like a leader would fire, I love it.
Let me let me just pour gasoline on that.
There's more, he says,
based on the attached clip.
It is hard to believe he is alive.
It was a woman.
[00:10:04]
Oh, wait, I'm sorry.
He's talking about the Ice agent.
It's hard to believe he is alive.
He finds it hard to believe that the Ice
agent who didn't get run over is alive.
Who didn't get hit by the car. He's alive.
He's. He's amazed by that.
[00:10:19]
I am so sick of brain dead politicians
ruling our lives,
stealing our money and terrorizing us.
I'm sick of it.
Important to note that the agent again
was not rushed to the hospital.
[00:10:37]
In fact, video shows that the agent that
Trump is surprised survived this vicious
attack, got in his vehicle and drove away.
As for the footage that I showed you,
I want to talk a little bit
[00:10:52]
about the witness, what she saw, because,
you know, she did mention that, the victim
here, attempted to block the Ice agents,
and that probably upset them.
And that's probably why they felt
in their minds, it was justified to rob
[00:11:09]
a human being of her life.
So the witness who took the video, Caitlin
Callison, said she was on a walk when she
saw an Ice vehicle stuck in the snow.
As more Ice vehicles arrived, bystanders
blew whistles in protest and the driver of
[00:11:26]
the SUV tried to block the Ice vehicles.
And the part that really disgusts me
is the following.
After the shots were fired, the driver was
completely slumped over in the vehicle,
said Emily Heller, another witness.
[00:11:42]
Federal agents wouldn't allow a man
who said he was a physician
to examine the driver, Heller said.
Emergency medical technicians
arrived 15 minutes later, she said.
So. That was bad enough.
[00:11:59]
I didn't know if what the witness
was saying here was true.
Sometimes witnesses, you know, their
recollection isn't entirely accurate,
but it turns out we have video showing
the Ice agents preventing the doctor from
reaching the woman who had just been shot.
Take a look.
[00:12:18]
Back up.
Now I'm a physician, you understand?
We got EMS coming, and I get it.
Just give us a second.
We have medics on scene.
- We have our own medics.
- Where are they?
Where are they?
How can I relax?
You just killed my neighbor.
[00:12:34]
You caught her in the face.
You killed my neighbor.
How can you show up to work every day?
How do you do this? Every day?
You're killing my neighbors.
You're stealing my neighbors.
What? The man.
[00:12:51]
So, Hennepin County Attorney
Mary Moriarty has issued a statement.
The statement was issued
soon after the shooting, saying she is
pushing hard for a local investigation,
which is the only way to ensure full
transparency and review by our office.
[00:13:08]
Now look, everything that I'm sharing
with you is everything that I have seen,
everything that's been reported
and disseminated since this story broke.
Again, it's a developing story and there
might be more information coming out.
I'm certain there will be
more information coming out soon.
[00:13:23]
But I want to talk a little bit
about what's been happening
in the backdrop of this tragic incident,
because this is not the first time
that under the Trump administration,
Ice agents have carried out
acts of violence against human beings,
claim that they did so in self-defense.
[00:13:42]
And then later we find
that the evidence shows otherwise.
So I'll give you specific examples.
In October, for instance, October of 2025,
a 30 year old teacher's assistant
by the name of Marimar Martinez
was driving around Chicago to essentially
warn Latino members of the community there
[00:14:01]
that immigration agents were coming.
U.S.
Customs and Border Protection agents
were riding in a car behind her.
One of them aimed an assault rifle at her
and shouted, do something, bitch!
Before opening fire.
Video of the incident shows Martinez, an
[00:14:20]
American citizen, was hit five times, shot
five times, and miraculously survived.
The agents claimed she rammed
their car and they arrested her.
It was all in self-defense, right?
Except it wasn't.
[00:14:35]
Turns out that Martinez's lawyers
provided video evidence that contradicted
that claim, and it showed that the agents
were the ones who actually rammed her car.
And the prosecutors, by the way,
dropped the case.
[00:14:54]
So the court case produced text messages
from the agent who shot her
bragging about his feat.
Quote I fired five rounds
and she had seven holes.
Put that in your book, boys.
[00:15:11]
Where are all the American patriots
who claimed that they would fight back
against the tyrannical government?
Because this is state sponsored
violence against Americans, and it's
been going on for months, by the way.
[00:15:27]
This happened in October.
Put that in your book, boys.
I shot a woman multiple times
after we rammed her car and then turned
around and lied and said she rammed us,
so we had to do it in self-defense.
[00:15:45]
These are thugs.
These are disgusting masked thugs.
Who are who are basically Emboldened
by the thugs in the white House right now.
So the trace tracked
ice related shootings from January 7th
[00:16:06]
through December 8th of last year.
So about a full year.
And here's what they found.
There have been 28 such incidents,
including 14 shootings by Ice officials.
They include the shootings of three people
observing or documenting Ice raids,
[00:16:22]
the shootings of five people
driving away from traffic stops
or evading an enforcement action,
and the September 30th raid
on a Chicago apartment building
during which half asleep tenants, many of
whom were American citizens, by the way,
and their children were held at gunpoint.
[00:16:40]
At least four people have been killed, and
this is, by the way, up to December 7th.
So obviously the number
has increased since.
But, as of December,
at least four people have been killed
and five others have been injured.
So, tragically, the number of people
who have been killed
[00:16:56]
is at least five now by Ice agents.
And claiming self-defense again is really
a tactic that they have repeatedly used.
So here's another example.
CNN reported another case back in October.
Car crashes and rammings take center stage
in immigration crackdown.
[00:17:15]
So this had to do with the case of a woman
by the name of Diane Figueroa.
So back in October, Ice officers in an SUV
struck the car of the Chicago resident
who's a paralegal.
Now, DHS was making an arrest
and hit her car.
[00:17:32]
And as they were trying to get away
from a crowd of people protesting,
which, you know, the victim was part of,
this happened.
So despite her not being at fault for
anything, the federal agents, by the way,
surrounded her car,
and then they dragged her onto the ground.
[00:17:49]
And that's what you're about to see
in this next video.
Yo run over, y'all.
I get a whole lawsuit. One whole lawsuit.
[00:18:04]
Yeah.
Hit it. Run, hit it.
Run.
Hit and run, hit it. Run.
You hit it, you hit her. Yo, yo.
What's wrong? You hit her, you hit her.
You guys hit her.
[00:18:21]
Y'all got no heart. For real?
No heart, no heart.
Get off, get off! She's a female.
Get off her! Right.
You guys hit her.
How are you guys gonna arrest her?
Get off!
[00:18:37]
You guys hit her, man.
How y'all gonna arrest her?
What are you doing?
After that, they put her
in an unmarked vehicle.
[00:18:52]
And they left her in that car
in the middle of the street
with the keys in the ignition.
And if you're wondering, well,
she must have done something wrong.
I'm sure they pressed
some charges against her.
No. She was eventually released hours
after the arrest without any charges.
[00:19:07]
So congratulations, America.
You're all working hard.
You're paying your taxes.
You're seeing your money robbed
by your federal government
to fund foreign wars and essentially oil
seizures on behalf of oil companies,
who I'm now learning
that the profits from said oil
[00:19:27]
isn't going to be sent to the Treasury.
Trump announced this.
Apparently it's going
to be sent to offshore accounts.
Congratulations.
Congratulations.
Making America great again.
America first federal agent
shooting and killing American citizens
[00:19:44]
and pretending like they had to do so
because they were in imminent danger.
Every time you ring the bell below,
an angel gets its wings.
Totally not true, but it does
keep you updated on our live shows.
