Just four blocks from where a Minneapolis police officer knelt on George Floyd’s neck in 2020, a mother was gunned down in broad daylight on Wednesday (Jan. 7), this time at the hands of a masked ICE agent. While Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey told the feds to “get the f**k out” of his city, the echo of his outrage is already vibrating through the halls of power in Chicago and New York. Mayors Brandon Johnson and Zohran Mamdani are breaking their silence on the shooting and drawing a line in the sand.

Renee Nicole Good — a young white, conventionally attractive woman and mother — was shot to death by an ICE agent in her car on a street in Minneapolis, a major U.S. city with a majority white population. The tragedy is too common, but the optics are much different than what the public is accustomed to when they think of ICE or police victims.

The public was never supposed to see the face of ICE agent Johnathan Ross when he opened fire on Renee Good’s SUV in Minnesota. Video taken from the scene shows Ross adjusting his face mask after shooting the unarmed citizen in the head and before fleeing in an unmarked car. It wasn’t until Secretary Kristi Noem bragged about him being an “experienced officer” that Ross’ mask finally came down.
