One Outrage After Another. This Terrible One In Minnesota.

      What a  fearful, sad, disorienting time we live in. This is the age of Trump, where day by day, sometimes hour by hour, we're hit with a new shock, so that we can't absorb one shock  before we're hit with the next one.
      I regularly find that while I'm still searching for the words to express what I think and feel about the most recent act of cruelty, brutality, corruption, or aggression by Trump or his minions I have to abandon the effort because that outrage has been made obsolete by the breaking news of yet another outrage. Sort of a variation of a nightmarish Groundhog Day scenario. 
         And so here I am again today, here many of us are, once again horrified, angry, grieving, trying to find words to express what we're thinking, 
what we're feeling, about the latest outrage, the brutal killing two days ago in Minneapolis of 37-year- old Renee Nicole Good, a mother of three, who was shot to death by ICE agent Jonathan Ross,​

​     The purported investigation of Renee Good's death will be carried out solely by FBI, no longer an independent law enforcement agency but beholden to the wishes of Donald Trump. To this end the FBI has blocked the Minneapolis police and Minnesota state officials from taking part in the investigation, such as it will (or will not) be.
​          But if Trump's FBI refuses to seek either truth or justice in the killing of Renee Nicole Good, and if Trump lackeys JD Vance and  Kristi Noem insist on broadcasting their preposterously fabricated narrative that Good was a domestic terrorist who was trying to kill ICE agent Ross, who subsequently had no choice but to shoot her in self-defense,

...there are human witnesses and video footage that tell a different story.
       The story those witnesses and videos tell is that Renee Nicole Good trying to move her car was no threat to the lives of the ICE agents or to whatever mission they were there to accomplish in their combat gear and masks that morning in that Minneapolis neighborhood.
        They tell that there was no reason, while Good was turning her front wheels to the right, for Jonathan Ross to shoot  through her windshield from where he stood to the front left side of her car.
      That there was no reason, after shooting Good in the face through her windshield, for him to shoot her twice more through the driver's side window then  snap, "f**king b**ch" as her car and its lifeless driver careened away.   
        And though MAGA world is pushing the unproven account that Jonathan Ross at some point was hit by Renee Nicole Good's car, all the video stills show him on his feet the whole time, walking and looking just fine.

          Some outrages are worse than others. 
​          Rest in peace, Renee. You seemed like a really nice person.
