What's New?

So far, 2026 has been a wild, wild ride. First, Captain Dipshit, everyones favorite Head of State, kidnaps a dictator from South America to, per Donny boy himself; take their oil. I suppose that's fitting. I don't expect trash to respect other trash. All of the crap was done brazenly, with none of the "class" you'd usually expect when the U.S. Government breaks the law.

What these fools did is nothing new. What's new (at least, in living memory) is that they're not disguising the criminality. One could say "At least they're being open about it" but you'd be wrong to. They're ~trying~ to lie about it and failing spectacularly. At least when the War on Terror was going on, they had public support. Nowadays, not even MAGA seems to want this. Well, you voted for it. You know you've botched things when not even stupid people will support you. Enjoy your sanction and newly emboldened war monger, I guess.

Worse yet, we have the ICE shooting that occurred yesterday, leading to the death of Renee Good. The public seems aware of the agents name at this point, but I can't find a citation proving it so I won't repeat it. I'm also writing this with the assumption that you're already well aware of what happened.

With just the publicly available footage, it's highly unlikely a defense attorney could defend against this. it appears that Renee Good was unarmed and attempting to flee when The shooter position himself, aimed, and fired three times, killing her. After, the shooters buddies refused her medical aid. Considering the fact that the man attempted to render medical aid to the victim was told "I don't care" in response to his pleas to help her, I'd presume that constitutes "deliberate indifference" to any potential liabilities DHS has with regards to her. Page 4, section G. of DHS's Use of Force Policy also seems to indicate that there was a departmental violation here.

The administration of course, is claiming that Renee Good was a domestic terrorist and that the ICE agents were in mortal danger. This directly contradicts what the video shows. I'm going to believe my eyes, thank you. more so, I'm going to believe my ears. I heard three gunshots. A properly trained individual operating under use-of-force guidelines would almost certainly not act in this manner. Even IF the assertions of her being a domestic terrorist trying to kill them were true. their own guidelines outright state (page 7, section 2.a) that deadly force cannot be used against fleeing individuals, which is what appears to have happened in the video.

Most ridiculous of all, is that the FBI and DHS are trying to protect the shooter from Minnesota state authorities right now. I can't say how successful that will be, but given the incompetence I've witness elsewhere I'm going to guess "not very". That is of course assuming the authorities in Minnesota don't lie down like dogs.

When the shooter is captured by state authorities, and he will be, it'll be a huge victory that the federal government just handed to it's opposition. Were they not so brazen as to defend this utter nonsense, they'd instill doubt in those of us that usually don't listen to "liberals" or whatever boogie-man they've come up with. I'm not a leftist by any stretch. I'm just a guy that watched untrained government goons kill an unarmed woman for some obviously stupid reason.

It appears that Donny boy attacked Venezuela for a variety of reasons. He says it's for the oil, but I also think it's a distraction attempt. A distraction from his Epstein problem and his domestic failures. Good going, you had like four days of distraction. Now, things are even worse. Sucks to be you, doesn't it?

Assuming the Trump Administration is in it for themselves, and I think they are, they don't seem competent enough to understand that the American people aren't stupid. Scared and angry people are notoriously difficult to govern. What do they have to lose in charging the ICE shooter? Absolutely nothing. It'd quell any protests and be an example that his supporters could use to shut people up that claim that "ICE is Lawless". Now, the State of Minnesota gets to do it and there's no presidential pardon there.

Trump's administration being filled with fools is beneficial to Americans. If they were intelligent about their criminality, we'd be in trouble. As things stand, they're not even on their own side. Instead, they just do whatever based solely on emotion. They act like children, and should be treated as such. That's the only way to move forward here. Not with violence, or rudeness. But with firm expectations of what needs to be done and a clear explanation of what judicial consequences are for those that don't follow the will of the people. We will vote out those that don't create the policies we want, and hold criminally accountable those that break the laws we the people have written.

Oh, and after writing this all, I found this. No idea what the validity is but here you go. I'd guess that if they didn't want to be sued, they'd have to be pretty sure that it's the correct guy. Funny, how that works.
