ICE Shooting Victim Renee Nicole Good GoFundMe Campaign Receives Over $1M In Donations

Published | Updated

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.

JD Vance Says Shot By ICE? It's On You -- They Were Defending Themselves!

Published | Updated

Vice President JD 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.

Minnesota Mayor Jacob Frey described the claims of self-defense as "bulls***" and has vowed to "ensure justice" for Good's death.

Wisconsin Judge Hannah Dugan Found Guilty Of Obstructing ICE Agents

Published | Updated

Wisconsin state judge Hannah Dugan was convicted Thursday on a felony charge of obstructing federal agents as they attempted to arrest an undocumented immigrant outside her Milwaukee courtroom earlier this year.

Dugan was acquitted of a charge of concealing a person from arrest, the Milwaukee Sentinel-Journal reports. The split verdict came after nearly seven hours of deliberation by the jury of five women and seven men.

Dugan, 66, is facing up to five years in prison, and as a convicted felon, will likely not be able to retain her office as a judge following her conviction.

In April, Dugan was preparing to preside over a set of misdemeanor cases when she learned ICE agents were gathered outside her courtroom waiting to arrest Eduardo Flores-Ruiz, a 31-year-old undocumented immigrant who was facing domestic battery charges.

Dugan went into the hallway and told the agents to go to a different judge's office. Back in her courtroom, Dugan told Flores-Ruiz and his attorney to leave through a side door for staff. Agents saw Flores-Ruiz in a public hallway, chased him on foot and arrested him. A week later, Dugan was arrested and led out of the courthouse in handcuffs. Flores-Ruiz was later deported.

Dugan was subsequently placed on administrative leave and was temporarily removed from the bench, although she continued to collect her salary.

Steve Biskupic, one of the lawyers who represented Dugan, said the case was "a long way from over." Her legal team plans to appeal the verdict.

U.S. Deputy Attorney Todd Blanche celebrated Dugan's conviction on X and claimed she'd "betrayed her oath."

Karoline Leavitt Nephew's Mom Says She's Not Acting Like A Good Catholic!!!

Published | Updated

Karoline Leavitt can call herself whatever she wants, but it doesn't mean she's acting like a righteous woman ... so says the mother of her nephew and godson, who was detained last month.

Bruna Caroline Ferreira appeared on Erin Burnett's CNN show Friday ... and, she laid into the White House press secretary -- telling Erin she'd want to tell Karoline, "Just because you went to a Catholic school doesn't make you a good Catholic."
