Controversial S#!T

Talk about slipping up on the job ... an ICE agent in Minnesota took a brutal spill on actual ice, went flying -- and yes, the satisfyingly ironic wipeout was all caught on camera!

With tensions already on thin ice in Minnesota following the recent ICE shooting of Renee Nicole Good, one fired-up agent forgot the basics of winter survival ... charging down the street during an immigration raid over the weekend -- only to be swiftly humbled by the slick, frozen pavement, which sent him sprawling.

It’s a hilarious watch -- the agent completely wipes out, lands hard on his butt, and the surrounding protesters instantly break into cheers, reveling in his very public embarrassment.

Jean Smart, Mark Ruffalo and Wanda Sykes and other celebs subtly slammed the Trump administration and its deployment of ICE officers ... donning pins at the Golden Globe Awards to recognize slain citizen Renee Good.

"Be Good" -- that's the message celebrities delivered on their big night, by wearing pins with the wording ... a reference to the woman who was killed by an ICE agent in Minnesota Wednesday.

Wanda spoke to Variety about her notable accessory ... telling her that it was of course a reference to Renee.

Nikki Glaser came out swinging as the host of the 2026 Golden Globes ... taking down CBS News and its new editor-in-chief Bari Weiss in one fell swoop.

She quipped, "The award for Most Editing goes to CBS News! Yes, CBS News -- America's newest place to see B.S. news."

ICYMI ... Bari stirred up a lot of controversy by killing a "60 Minutes" segment hours before it was scheduled to air. The report focused on the treatment of Venezuelan deportees from the United States to El Salvador's notorious CECOT prison, but Bari told The Hollywood Reporter it "was not ready" to see the light of day.

Jonathan Ross' career in federal law enforcement has taken him into the middle of numerous tense situations ... including the fatal shooting of Renee Nicole Good on January 7, 2026.

Here's a look at his past and the aftermath of the Minneapolis shooting.

Ross was deployed in Iraq from 2004 to 2005 with the Indiana National Guard as a machine-gunner on a gun truck, according to The Associated Press.

He reportedly attended college upon his return and joined the Border Patrol near El Paso, Texas, in 2007. He worked as a field intelligence agent and remained with the agency until 2015.

Ross said he worked as a firearms and active instructor and was a member of a SWAT team and a team leader with the FBI's Joint Terrorism Task Force during courtroom testimony last month.

Ross joined ICE in 2015 and has served as a deportation officer in Minnesota since then. He's assigned to fugitive operations, focused on arresting "higher value targets."

Ross was reportedly the leader of a team of ICE agents who had been assigned to arrest an undocumented immigrant in Bloomington, Minnesota, in June 2025. Although agents had grouped outside the home of Roberto Munoz-Guatemala, the target drove away from his residence.

Ross chased Munoz-Guatemala and pulled his vehicle in front of Munoz-Guatemala's, then ordered him to put the car in park. Ross directed Munoz-Guatemala to lower his window and ended up breaking the window before attempting to unlock the driver's door.

Munoz-Guatemala then began driving while Ross' arm was caught in the car and dragged Ross more than 100 yards before he was knocked loose from the vehicle. Ross suffered various cuts and abrasions in the incident, and he received more than 30 stitches.

Ross shot Munoz-Guatemala with a Taser during the incident. Munoz-Guatemala was later arrested, charged, and found guilty of assault on a federal officer with a dangerous or deadly weapon.

Ross and Good's paths crossed on January 7, 2026, in traffic on a residential street in southern Minneapolis ... a group of ICE agents was going door to door in the area looking for undocumented immigrants.

Good's vehicle was blocked on both sides on the street, and agents approached and was ordered her to step out of her Honda Pilot by an agent, who put his hands on her driver's-side door ... she backed up her vehicle before moving forward slightly, and Ross fired several rounds at her at close range, numerous videos show.

Good was struck in the head by at least one bullet, and she was pronounced dead at a local hospital. Good's identity was confirmed later in the afternoon. Ross was identified by the Minnesota Star Tribune the following day.

Although Good's death has been widely denounced by Minnesota officials and others across the country, Ross has been commended by the Trump administration, including by J.D. Vance, who said Ross "deserves a debt of gratitude."

Vance said Ross had been doing a "very, very important job" for the country and suggested Good was to blame for her own death online and in a White House press conference Thursday.

Kristi Noem addressed the incident in a Wednesday press conference, and reiterated the administration's position -- that Ross wsa acting in self-defense when he shot Good.

The wife of Renee Nicole Good -- the woman who was shot and killed by an ICE agent in Minneapolis Wednesday morning -- has issued a statement after her spouse's death.

FYI ... Renee was in traffic on a residential street Wednesday when ICE agents ordered her out of her Honda Pilot. One officer reached for her car door, as Renee backed the SUV up slightly and began moving forward -- and an agent in front of the vehicle fired at her at close range. She was hit in the head and was pronounced dead at a local hospital.

Renee's wife, Becca, told MPR News she wanted to show her gratitude toward everyone who'd supported her family in the wake of the shooting.

She wrote her late wife was "made of sunshine" and was a Christian who believed all religions taught what she described as "the same essential truth" -- embracing and caring for one another.

Becca wrote she and Renee had moved to Minneapolis in search of a place with a strong sense of community, and said their sense of peace was ripped from her following her wife's death.

She said she was left to raise the 6-year-old son she shared with Renee and was committed to teaching him why the people who shot his mother "had fear and anger in their hearts."

Renee Nicole Good's name entered the news for all the wrong reasons in January 2026, when she was shot by an ICE agent in a controversial encounter on a Minneapolis street.

We're going to take a look into the personal life of the shooting victim, and see what happened in the aftermath of the violent incident.

A GoFundMe campaign benefiting the wife and son of Renee Nicole Good -- who was shot by an ICE officer in Minneapolis Wednesday morning -- received more than $550,000 in donations within 24 hours of her death. By Thursday afternoon, it had surpassed the $1 million mark.

The fundraiser was organized to support Good's loved ones as they "grapple with the devastating loss of their wife and mother." She's described as "pure sunshine, pure love" in the description, which originally had a goal of $50,000.

Good was shot when ICE agents approached her SUV in traffic on a residential street in Minneapolis, and apparently directed her to exit the vehicle. Good backed up her Honda Pilot and moved forward, and an agent fired several shots into the car at point-blank range. Trump admin officials claim the officer shot in self-defense; that account is disputed by Minnesota officials and others who have viewed multiple videos of the incident.

Vice President J.D. Vance appeared to blame Renee Nicole Good -- who was shot and killed by an ICE agent in Minneapolis Wednesday morning -- for her own death in a message shared on X on Thursday ... and later at a White House press conference.

Good was driving her Honda Pilot on a residential street in Minneapolis Wednesday when ICE agents got out of a pickup truck and approached her SUV in traffic, and ordered her out. Good backed up the vehicle, then moved forward ... and an agent fired into her vehicle at point-blank range.

She was struck in the head and crashed the vehicle on the street, and was pronounced dead at a hospital.

Vance claimed Good was "violating the law" by obstructing ICE agents as they carried out what he described as a "lawful enforcement operation." He and DHS Secretary Kristi Noem said the officer was acting in self-defense, accusing Good of trying to hit the officer with her vehicle.

Vance accused Good of trying to stop the ICE agent from completing his work. He said the situation was a "tragedy," but said the shooting "falls on this woman" and political "radicals."

The Trump Administration has cited self-defense as justification for the shooting, although their claims have been disputed by the Minnesota governor and the Minneapolis mayor, along with many who've seen the videos of the shooting.

Kamaru Usman is expressing his regret after a private conversation with Anthony Joshua following his tragic crash surfaced on social media ... apologizing for allowing it to be recorded and published for the world to see.

The clip went viral this week ... showing Usman talking to Joshua via FaceTime about the Dec. 29 accident in Nigeria that claimed the lives of Kevin "Latif" Ayodele and Sina Ghami.

Usman received a ton of backlash for having the camera rolling for such a sensitive moment ... and he addressed it by admitting he messed up.

Kristi Noem claimed a woman shot by an ICE agent in Minneapolis on Wednesday committed "an act of domestic terrorism" before being shot.

ICE agents got out of a truck in traffic and approached a woman in a Honda Pilot on a residential street in Minneapolis, and one directed the driver to get out of the vehicle. The driver backed up the SUV, then moved forward ... that's when an agent fired shots into the windshield, and the SUV crashed into a parked car on the street.

The unidentified woman was struck in the face and was pronounced dead at a hospital. Department of Homeland Security Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin told TMZ ICE agents were reportedly hurt -- though video doesn't appear to show much physical contact -- and were expected to recover from their injuries.

Kristi Noem held a press conference at the U.S.-Mexico border in Texas later Wednesday and asserted the ICE agents who shot the woman were acting "defensively," Fox News reports.

Noem said the woman was trying to run the agents over or ram them with the SUV. She claimed sanctuary cities and states -- where local law enforcement's cooperation with federal immigration agencies is limited -- were protecting dangerous people.

Aldrich Ames, a former CIA agent who was convicted of spying for the Soviet Union, has died, CBS News reports.

The former counterintelligence officer died Monday while serving a life sentence at the Federal Correctional Institution in Cumberland, Maryland. His cause of death wasn't released.

Ames, whose father also worked for the CIA, began working for the agency in 1962 and married a fellow CIA operative in 1969. His first assignment was in Ankara, Turkey, and ended three years after his job performance began to decline.

He eventually divorced his first wife and married a cultural attaché from the Colombian Embassy in Mexico City, who was also a CIA asset. Ames later said financial pressure ended his first marriage, and said the responsibilities of his second marriage led him to start accepting payment from the Soviet Union for espionage in 1985.

Ames reportedly used the compensation -- which mounted into the millions -- to fund a lavish lifestyle.

The information Ames provided to the Soviet Union -- which dissolved in 1991 back to Russia -- reportedly led to the death of several agents, and the CIA was later criticized for missing warning signs about his activities.

Ames was arrested in February 1994. Ames and his wife pled guilty to espionage charges two months later. He received a life sentence; his wife was sentenced to five years in prison.

He later downplayed his spying activities and claimed the conflict between the Soviet Union and the United States wasn't as dire as it had been perceived.

Corletto claimed he eventually started working as McClurkin's personal assistant and said the singer began groping him during what were described as "pray the gay away" spiritual sessions.

Steven says he's put off sharing the news because he hoped to come to an amicable solution with his former employer.

Amy Sedaris raised some eyebrows on CNN's New Year's Eve broadcast ... cracking a tongue in cheek transgender joke live on air that left Andy Cohen and Anderson Cooper speechless.

The comedian appeared as one of the show's guests and during a viewer Q&A, Cooper asked where the best place to meet a man in 2026 might be. Sedaris quickly fired back that it might be in the women's bathroom, trailing off mid-thought as the comment landed with a thud.

Cooper and Cohen stayed silent, forcing Sedaris to pivot on the fly. She joked maybe Bergdorf Goodman was a better option, then tossed the question back to the hosts, suggesting a fire station. That finally got a laugh, with Cohen playing along.

A Florida man has been accused of committing a robbery ... while wearing almost nothing  but his birthday suit.

Watkins reportedly broke into the store's cash box and stole $1,000 before he took off. No one in the store was hurt during the incident.
