37-year-old Renee Good was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/us-news\/2026\/jan\/22\/renee-good-autopsy-ice-minneapolis\" data-link-name=\"in body link\">shot and killed<\/a> by a federal agent in south Minneapolis on 7 January.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">The Saturday killing came after tens of thousands of people in the city participated in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/us-news\/2026\/jan\/23\/minnesota-economic-blackout-ice-protests\" data-link-name=\"in body link\">an economic blackout and protest march<\/a> the day before, calling for an end to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/us-news\/ice-us-immigration-and-customs-enforcement\" data-link-name=\"in body link\">US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE)<\/a> occupation and justice for Good.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Local leaders have repeatedly called for ICE to leave the state. \u201cICE OUT\u201d signs are a feature of front lawns, placed into the snowpiles. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/us-news\/jd-vance\" data-link-name=\"in body link\">JD Vance<\/a> came to Minnesota on Thursday calling for people to turn down the temperature \u2013 but <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/us-news\/2026\/jan\/22\/jd-vance-ice-minneapolis-protesters\" data-link-name=\"in body link\">placed the blame<\/a> on local leaders, not on federal forces.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">\u201cYou ask us for peace, and we give it, and we get shot in the face on the streets coming out of a donut shop,\u201d said Tim Walz, Minnesota\u2019s governor, during a press conference after Saturday\u2019s killing.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">In a now-familiar sequence of events, the federal government placed blame on the person killed before completing an investigation. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/us-news\/donaldtrump\" data-link-name=\"in body link\">Donald Trump<\/a> issued a screed about fraud in the state. Local officials immediately cast doubt on the federal statements, citing videos of the scene, and have insisted local law enforcement need to be involved in an investigation.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">At the scene of the shooting, people poured into the street as dozens of federal agents repeatedly shot chemicals into the air and at people who were yelling at them. Some were arrested. \u201cWhat are you doing?\u201d one woman yelled, captured on a livestream. \u201cYou just shot someone and now you\u2019re terrorizing us. What more can we take?\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">The city, and suburbs and some rural areas around the state, are under siege by thousands of federal agents. Some people, including US citizens, have barely left home in weeks, fearing that agents will detain them regardless of immigration status.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Neighbors have come together to bring food and needed items to their homes, disrupting mutual aid far and wide so that people can stay inside if it\u2019s safest for them to do so. Parents have joined patrols outside schools before and after the school day to make sure children can get home safely. Children have been detained, including a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/us-news\/2026\/jan\/23\/us-immigration-two-year-old-minnesota-girl\" data-link-name=\"in body link\">two-year-old<\/a> and a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/us-news\/2026\/jan\/21\/ice-arrests-five-year-old-boy-minnesota\" data-link-name=\"in body link\">five-year-old<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Rachel Sayre, the director of Minneapolis\u2019 emergency management department, compared what she\u2019s seeing in the city to conflict zones she\u2019s seen in other countries.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">\u201cMy background is in international humanitarian response in conflict zones in Yemen, Haiti, Syria, Iraq and Ukraine,\u201d she said. \u201cWhat I\u2019ve seen here is what I\u2019ve seen there \u2013 a powerful entity violently and intentionally terrorizing people.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">A network of observers monitors immigration enforcement activity around the clock, following officers and alerting residents when they\u2019re around. Agents have grown increasingly hostile and violent toward observers \u2013 pulling them from cars, showering them with chemical irritants, arresting and detaining them.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">They have not backed down \u2013 and they won\u2019t after another killing. The palpable anger and sadness at the ongoing occupation, and a desire to protect each other, continues to fuel the rapid response. One GoFundMe for rapid responders is seeking funds for people to get protective equipment, including goggles, gas masks and bulletproof vests, so they can continue to observe ICE.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">There\u2019s a sense that the situation in the state is untenable and unsteady, and that it\u2019s unlikely the federal government will deescalate the situation.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">\u201cThis will end when enough Americans say this will end,\u201d Walz said. \u201cDo I have any confidence Donald Trump will do the right thing? No, I don\u2019t have a lot of confidence Donald Trump will do the right thing. I do have a lot of confidence that the majority of the American people will do the right thing.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>#Youre #terrorizing #Protesters #Minneapolis #streets #federal #agents #kill #citizen #Minneapolis<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cI\u2019m 70 years old and I\u2019m fuck&hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":15400,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[1],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/microvibenews.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15399"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/microvibenews.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/microvibenews.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/microvibenews.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/microvibenews.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=15399"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/microvibenews.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15399\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/microvibenews.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/15400"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/microvibenews.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=15399"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/microvibenews.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=15399"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/microvibenews.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=15399"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
