Cell phone footage shows shooting of Renee Good from ICE agent's perspective

Protests have erupted across the country after an Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent, identified as Jonathan Ross, fatally shot 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good.

Demonstrators in Minneapolis and other cities across the U.S., including Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Raleigh and Washington, D.C., have turned out this weekend for nonviolent protests, being called “ICE Out For Good.” Photos showed demonstrators holding signs demanding ICE leave their cities or remembering Good’s legacy.

Large anti-ICE protests have been ongoing in Minneapolis, drawing hundreds of local and state law enforcement officers. A large crowd formed Saturday in the city’s Powderhorn Park, where protesters have chanted Good’s name and waved signs with slogans like “ICE will melt,” according to CNN.

While the Minneapolis protests have been largely peaceful, at least 29 individuals were arrested Friday evening after a hotel was vandalized.

Several activist groups have helped organize the protests, which call for the government to reduce ICE presence in cities and demand accountability.

Meanwhile, the Department of Homeland Security has released a new video showing the minutes that led up to the fatal shooting in Minneapolis. In a post on X, the agency asserted Good was “STALKING and IMPEDING a law enforcement operation.”

‘You’re almost inducing a shooting’: Former officers break down what went wrong in Minneapolis

Donald Trump’s administration has repeatedly claimed that a federal officer who fatally shot Renee Good in Minnesota was justified, alleging that the 37-year-old mother of three was a “violent rioter” who intentionally used her car to ram the agent in an act of “domestic terrorism.”

The officer, who has been identified as Jonathan Ross, fired three shots because he feared for his life, according to administration officials.

But former Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers and police misconduct experts dispute the administration’s insistence that the use of deadly force was justified and questioned the officer’s behavior.

Norad Santa tracker live: Follow Santa Claus and his reindeer as they deliver gifts around the globe

CloseSanta Claus and his reindeer have set off for their biggest night of the year, with billions of stops to make around the world in less than 24 hours.
After weeks of preparation at the workshop, Father Christmas has departed west from the North Pole, and will visit the South Pacific before passing through Asia, Africa, Europe, and crossing the Atlantic to the Americas.

Alex Pretti: Minneapolis ICU nurse with no criminal record who ‘cared deeply for people’ killed by federal agents

Federal immigration officers have shot and killed another American citizen in Minneapolis, just 17 days after they fatally shot Renee Good.
The victim of the shooting was identified as Alex Pretti, 37. He was near 26th Street and Nicollet Avenue in Minneapolis on Saturday morning, filming DHS agents during an operation.
Open-sourced video capturing the incident shows Pretti moving to assist a pair of individuals on the sidewalk near the agents, who then began pepper-spraying the group.
The victim is tackled by a group of at least five agents and dragged to the ground. The footage shows the Border Patrol agents struggling with Pretti on the ground and striking him when a gunshot is heard. A moment later, an agent fires multiple shots while Pretti is down on the pavement.
Ten shots were fired within five seconds.
Immediately after the shooting, the agents back off from Pretti's body, and one officer — who appears to be holding a gun — runs away from the scene and hides behind a..

Hillary Clinton accuses Trump administration of Epstein ‘cover-up’ as president claims he’s been ‘totally exonerated’ in the files

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has accused the Trump administration of carrying out a “cover-up” in its handling of the Epstein files, while the president claims the files “totally exonerated” him and “pulled in” the Clintons.
“Get the files out,” Clinton told the BBC on Monday from Berlin, where she attended the World Forum. “They are slow-walking it.”
Her husband, former president Bill Clinton, is mentioned and pictured numerous times in the Epstein files. Both Clintons have denied any contemporaneous knowledge of Epstein’s crimes, and survivors and authorities have not accused them of wrongdoing.
Over the weekend, Clinton echoed her calls for transparency while speaking at the Munich Security Conference.
She called the contents of the Epstein files “horrifying” and demanded their full release.
