I wasn’t going to write a blog post about the ICE Minneapolis murder because I didn’t think I had anything unique or useful to contribute beyond the outrage I share with millions of Americans. But shortly after an ICE agent shot 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good in the head the morning of Wednesday, January 7, 2026, the President of the United States lied to the world about it on his social media platform.
Trump sent 2000 ICE agents to Minneapolis because Minneapolis has a large Somali population, Trump says Somalis are garbage, and he wants to round them up and either deport or imprison them. So, when anybody gets in the way, it must be somebody from the radical left threatening, assaulting, and targeting law enforcement officers.
How do I know Trump is lying? Because the videos are easy to find. Only this time, the lies are not about money and corruption. This time, Renee Nicole Good will never go home to her family because an ICE agent murdered her.
Here is the sequence of events from the videos:
- A silver truck with ICE agents pulls up on the left. A maroon minivan is in its way on the right.
- Two masked ICE agents exit the truck, one from the passenger side, the other from the driver’s side. Both head toward the van.
- The driver’s side agent grabs the minivan door to pull it open.
- The van driver backs the van a few feet, cuts the wheels to the right and moves forward.
- The van passes a third ICE agent, who moves from in front of the van to the left of the van’s driver’s side.
- That agent leans in and fires at least three shots at the driver’s head. The van moves a few feet down the street and smashes into another car.
- After the shooting, a physician offered to render aid to the driver, dying from gunshot wounds to her face. ICE agents prohibited it.
- Subsequent pictures show blood all over the steering wheel air bag in the van.
Contrary to the lies Trump spewed, nobody ran over any ICE officer. No ICE officer is recovering in any hospital because no ICE officers were injured. The videos show the shooter walking briskly away after the shooting. But DHS Secretary, Kristi Noem, tells a different story.
“It’s very clear this individual was harassing and impeding law enforcement operations,” Noem said. “Our officer followed his training and did exactly what he’s been taught to do in that situation and took actions to defend himself and his fellow law enforcement officers.”

I expect the State of Minnesota to file murder charges. I also expect Kristi Noem and the Trump MAGA cult will fight any legal action and make up slogans about evil liberals who hate America.
The MAGA cult defending its heroes, no matter what the videos and the facts show, is a long and well-worn pattern. Now a mother is dead because an agent of the United States Federal Government reached into her driver’s window and blew her brains all over her vehicle. Maybe this time, a few MAGA cult members will wake up. Or is murder now an approved tactic now to make America great again?
Hopefully the case moves forward and finds a judge with backbone.
