Agents in Trump’s Immigration Crackdown Have Fired at Vehicles at Least 10 Times.

The confrontations over the last four months have left two people dead and prompted criticism of federal agencies for allowing officers to open fire on moving vehicles.

Great piece and analysis Mitch. I'll throw in one more thing we can all do right now.

Call Congress at (202) 224-3121 and voice your opposition to what is happening all across America. Congress needs to hear from everyone, especially if your Senators or Representatives are Republicans. Then call your Governor, Attorney General, and other state elected officials. Keep calling until they shut this shit down.

Dear Mitch,

A well thought out detailed description of what happened in Minnesota w the killing of Ms. Good. It's very clear from your analysis, the several videos, and our laws and regulations, that this was a horrible tragedy. That ICE agent shot her, point blank, 3 feet from her car, not in any danger of being run over. Furthermore, he shot her while she was calmly and slowly driving away, no one in harms way. Then cleary the ICE agent walks down the street talking on his phone, clearly not injured at all. I wonder if there are hospital records of him being "treated" at all.....Trump is lying about him being harmed and having to go to the hospital, Frump and Noem, as you stated, are lying about so many things which are very clear on all of the video footage. Anyone that denys what's happening in several videos are clearly watching w there eyes closed, maybe just like their commander in chief falling asleep while standing up at a meeting!! OMG!! People, wake up and believe your own eyes!! So sorry for her family and child. Can anyone help the grandfather, I think they said his only living relative, help raise him....a Go Fund Me????

😔💔🙏💐

BLUF: 'tis Gestapo U.S.A.

¡Scheiße! The woman was driving maybe five or ten miles per hour; easily evadable and at a speed *to suggest, as Mr O'Donnell does, that she may have been getting out of the way. We do not know; *yet getting out of the way sounds a whole lot more plausible than domestic terrorism.
