There can be no doubt in any rational American mind hat one of the prime motivations behind Trump’s (through the puppy killer) deployment of thousands of masked and armed ICE agents into primarily blue cities was to create exactly the kind of tensions it has, with the predicable results.

Trump is dying for a reason to use the Insurrection Act both as a demonstration of his dictatorial powers and as a way to feed red meat to his supporters and to distract them from the damage his economic policies are doing, not to mention the Epstein files. And putting these masked thugs, most of whose training, backgrounds, legal records, and political leadings are entirely unknown into the streets, with essentially carte blanche to do whatever they want is an open invitation to just the kind of trouble we’ve been seeing.

I won’t even comment on the utter absurdity of a Trumpchick wearing a cowboy hat several sizes too big describing an incident about which she could have had no complete, factual knowledge at the time, only excuses from the field by some agent who was either dead to any concept of conscience or very worried about possible consequences.

This will happen again and again until this administration is sent packing into the dustbin of history, and that cannot happen soon enough.

THIS MUST PROVE TO BE A DEATH TOO FAR.

This woman’s blood is not only on the hands of the agent who killed her, but also the puppy killer herself, her demented boss, the six conservatives justices on the Supreme Court for their inexcusable sloth and apparent inability to understand Trump’s clear motives, and the political party that has chosen loyalty over integrity, sycophancy over competency, and Trump over the Constitution.

She ran over the officer's foot and nearly ran him over. That was clear. Either she made a fatal mistake, or it was attempted murder of the officer. However, her biggest mistake was listening to the unhinged left normalizing the actions to impede law enforcement from enforcing immigration laws. Placing her vehicle in the middle of the road to block ICE officers was in fact an act that justified her arrest and criminal prosecution.

The actual people responsible for her death are all the people justifying the leftist violence against ICE.

What nonsense! It's her foot on thr gas and the agent's hand on the gun that killed her, not just whoever you dislike

I would tend to agree with that except these liberal females are easy to emotionally program and they are being programmed to the hilt. You can claim that someone that dies of an opioid OD is their fault, but what if the Opioid pharma industry is handing out the drug for free, and pumping media messaging that it is good stuff?

You say that liberal females are easy to emotionally program. What about the right wing men who committed violence at the Capitol on January 6, 2021? No one can deny the violence that was perpetrated that day by these right wing men. Look at how ISIS recruits young men to gleefully die in violent attacks against ISIS targets. There is no basis for singling out liberal females, or any other category of females, as being more susceptible to being programmed than right wing men, or any other category of males.

The S.S. guards in Auschwitz, who abused my mother and killed my grandfather and uncle, were men. They were obviously capable of being programmed. We need to focus on the trait that many people have in terms of being vulnerable to manipulation. This affects humanity regardless of gender.

Inane comment. J6 was one protest with a few dozen emotionally out of control idiots. Liberal females have been screaming pink hat harpies lacking emotional control for the last decade at least.

The only unhinged people here are the president, the puppy killer, the vice president, the masked thugs, and all those like you who support killing a single terrified woman who most likely couldn’t think straight in a moment unlike anything she’d ever experienced, suddenly faced with masked, armed men shouting obscenities at her and trying to pull her from her car. In that last moment of her life, I imagine all she could think about was all the videos of those same, anonymous, threatening figures throwing people to the ground and beating on them.

A single self-controlled officer quietly telling her to move her car would have resolved this moment as in a thousand other such moments in a thousand other places.

You people own this murder.

People spouting anti law enforcement Trump Derangement Syndrome hate own the death of this law breaking liberal female. Stop impeding law enforcement and you won't get shot. It is so damn easy to understand, you leftists must really be dense to not get it.

"Ran over the officer's foot"? So where are the X-rays?

The machine is being used to try and diagnose all that empty space in your head. Watch the non-leftist biased video angle and you will see him limp after she tried to run him down.

If that had happened, the hospital certainly would have X-rayed his foot and Trump and Noem would have been showing them to the media every chance they got.

I've never been able to figure out whether you're an honest fanatic or a lying propagandist. I guess it's really not that important.

lying fanatic of the kright kind should be corrrrect to define such people. Nov26 will set up for real legal consequences as people correct the fatal consequences of this regime & its asslickers.

I only wish that Good — and others who like her — had protested as loudly when the Biden administration allowed an ‘invasion’ at the southern border. And I wish the press had shown the same level of angst over that travesty. Perhaps many tragedies might have been avoided.

The irony here is that so many of those trying to gain entry into the US were fleeing countries that had been turned into the same kind of corrupt autocracy that Donald Trump would love to create here. Yes, we did need a much better control over the border, but Trump’s solution, to shut it down entirely is equally shortsighted, and the effects of that foolishness are already being felt in a number of industries, including tourism.

That aside, Biden’s policy was at best foolish, but any attempt to compare that, a situation in which thousands of desparate people were simply attempting to find a better place in which to live with the ‘judicial’ murder of a Minnesota wife and mother who was absolutely nothing wrong is far worse than foolish. .

In fact you can have no idea how Ms Good felt about the border policy under Biden, or what she may have done about it. But she would have been flooded out by all the right wing protests, of which there was plenty to feed the media.

And of course Trump himself was a complete cynic about the border issue. He could have cared less except that highlighting it was red meat to his supporters. Remember that he himself employed undocumented immigrants at his golf clubs. And the last bipartisan attempt to resolve the border issue toward the end of the Biden administration was torpedoed by Trump solely so that he could continue to use it for his own campaign.

There is far more than enough hypocrisy floating around here, but there is also an astonishing level of cruelty from Trump’s remarks, Noem’s lies, the right wing echo chamber, a complete lack of oversight, an appalling amount of racial profiling, and a general disintegration of Constitutional order going on under this administration

Ns Good’s death as deeply disturbing as it is, is only the tip of the iceberg.

Vague references to ‘incorrect data’ are hardly definitive objections.

if i post references, they will raise more dubious suspicions.. what they try to do is to drive the reader to investigate for the truth... check other posts....

You’ve lost me. I do indeed check a number of posts, none of which have made me think that my post has ‘incorrect data’. What you seem to be trying to do is to send me down an endless road until I find whatever you think I should be looking for, which of course in the current state of the internet, I would surely find if I choose to do so with an uncritical eye.
