Great Bluesky post on J.D. Vance's comment about ICE killing Renee Good

Yes, JD. Let’s ask them if they think a stay at home mom, avowed Christian, and widow of a veteran deserved to be shot in the face and left to bleed out in her own car after dropping her 6-year-old off at school, for the crime of looking out for her neighbors. Let’s ask everyone running for office.

Can the administration be sued for defamation of character in circumstances like these?

Sadly, I doubt it.

12. Apparently you can't be legally sued for defaming a dead person.

That's unfortunate. But her family CAN sue for defamation if they can prove that they were harmed by the defamatory comments against her.

She's dead and can't defend herself in the press.... he is disgusting. Family should sue him, Noem, all those lying about their love one. Let him prove in court she was a terrorist, deranged . . .

Fucking asshole. JD Vance hates JD Vance so much he changes his name over and over to escape himself.

7. She did not try to run Ross over, her wheels were pointed away from him when he fired his 1st shot.

And he was standing at her driver door in NO danger when he pumped TWO more bullets point blank into her face through her open window.

11. Here's what I would ask every candidate for office

"Why are ICE agents shooting at American citizens who are clearly NOT immigrants, and also clearly NOT disobeying the law?"

And here's another question: "When ICE agents disobey their orders, why aren't they being held accountable?"

13. What a moronic asshole

Yes, I actually think every single member of Congress should be asked about this murder. I'm sure every single Democrat will gladly go on the record as saying it was murder. The videos clearly show the "self defense" argument is total bullshit. The question is, how many Republicans would be willing to ignore the video and claim the shooting was justified? Unfortunately, I'm sure it's very few, but I gotta believe even some Republicans in Congress would admit it was murder. Hell, even Fox News last night was calling out Noem and Trump as liars for the explanation of what happened (of course they didn't use the word liar, but they made it clear that even some at Fox News wasn't going to support the outrageous lies that Trump & Noem told).
