trump really screwed the pooch on this one.

Is it possible that the MAGA morons support the murder of Americans in their cars by trump's goons? This is terrible!

trump wants to protect protesters in Iran and kill protesters here. Good God. Noem should be in prison with trump.

Some asshat... Markwalen I've no idea.

He was presented a video clip of the Mayor on Minneapolis saying the shooting was unlawful and he completely supported the idea that she was "clearly a terrorist". They're laying into that line for a reason.

You can shoot to kill terrorists and you aren't subject to State Law. That's why no one will ever get arrested. They labeled her a Domestic Terrorist BEFORE the altercation... even though she actually lived on that street. What a coincidence.

I don't know how you can possibly spin this to make her into some kind of terrorist. I'm just amazed that so many on the right have no sense of shame about this and are repeating obviously false talking points.

But that was it exactly, thank you. I will now excise it from my memory banks as useless knowledge.

Though keep an eye on that asshat... even though I won't remember his name, I won't forget who he is.

That's just the kind of thing he'd say. He's a big ICE booster. Here's a screen shot of a recent X post of his:

he wasn’t exaggerating. His supporters would cheer if he killed a bus load of nuns escorting children on a field trip if he told them to.

This will hit people just as hard if not harder, but this time trump and his goons are the murderers instead of a crooked cop. This was obviously a good woman, and trump and Noem are despicable monsters. This is a wakeup call. It could be a turning point, so to speak.

Both Twitter and TikTok are full of posts and videos demonizing and blaming the lady that was killed. Even Musk posted she was trying to kill ICE agents. Pretty dehumanizing and disgusting posts.

on YouTube and X defending the ICE agents actions and denigrating Ms. Good. Some people only see what they want to see and no amount of evidence or logic will change their minds.

...they're doing exactly that. They're claiming the officer was firing in self defense because the driver was trying to run him over. And if you point out that the video doesn't actually show that, they accuse you of being blind, not understanding the situation, and being a knee-jerk police hater.

I have friends on a couple of police forces. They're honorable men and women who take their jobs seriously. ICE isn't police.

Make no mistake, they love Trump because they think he'll kill liberal protesters. This was what they voted for.

Thu Jan 8, 2026, 01:43 PM

to provoke counter violence to feel they have the justification to enact the Insurrection Act, and enable the use of the U.S. Military across the entire nation and impose martial law. Which will also allow them to cancel all elections, and repeal the Posse Comatatus Act..........

As a bonus, there are not enough U.S. Military currently stationed in the United States to provide the overwhelming force needed, especially in Blue States and Cities, so Trump will close Military Bases in NATO countries to fortify those soldiers needed in the U.S.A.
Putin will love nothing better than Trump leaving Western European countries without U.S. Military Protection and munitions........

I heard Trump today wanting to DOUBLE the defense spending.......WHY?......unless the Republicans are intending to take on other sovereign Countries along with fortifying the ability to provide military martial law across the United States???????

trying to justify ICE's actions.
"If only she complied"
"if she had hadn't been where she shouldn't have been"
"We all know she is antifa"
"How is she any different than Ashli?"
etc, etc, etc...........

The list will go on and on vilifying her for years to come. As long as they can justify it they will try.
