To believe there will be no justice fo Renee Good under the Trump administration

Renee Good and the way the American government has responded. The broader shift toward more aggressive ICE operations and federal enforcement under the Trump administration is clearly influencing this response. Surely there should be more demand for accountability, transparency, and a government that protects all its people—not just those enforcing the law.

Am I being unreasonable to want justice for Reneee and to be concerned about the broader implications? Surely this sets a precedent for aggressive, potentinally leathal enforcement, even in communities not typically associated with immigration enforcement. Is America moving towards authoritarian practices? Under Trump is this a surprise?

I don’t think there will be any justice, not for Renee Good or the hundreds of people ICE “officers” (thugs, cowards, pigs, incels) have disappeared off the streets.
ICE have been referencing Renee Goods murder and asking civilians “haven’t you learned yet?” - they feel immune because they’re being told they’re immune and protected.

I hope and pray for this whole administration and its bullshit gestapo to be held to full account for their doings when the Nuremberg 2.0 trials take place one day.

She has been killed because of her own foolish actions. She hit that officer with her car and showed total disregard for him. Its awful and it's sad but I don't think he should be punished for her actions that day.

And I predicted on one of the other threads that Stamer et al will just shut up about it and hope it goes away.

Well here we are. It's terrifying.

What terrifies me is the way the narrative has been so successfully manipulated on social media.
Within hours, this young mom was labelled a domestic terrorist, an abuser, a failed mother who had to give up her kids and all the other perjoratives that people throw at the ‘woke’. And people have swallowed it. There will be no justice for her because enough people now believe she was a threat who is best off dead and our attention has moved elsewhere. How chilling is that- she could be any one of us.
Its totally Orwellian.

100%.

I appreciate anyone that challenges ICE. I think Trump surrounds himself with yes men to retain power and control, which is probably why Mark was treated so poorly.

I don't think many Americans care all that much TBH. Those who do are not numerous enough to change anything. Only a rising up and General Strike, together with a revolt by the Army to refuse orders for dodgy manoevres will achieve anything, and I can't see that happening anytime soon.

I wish people would listen to Senator Mark Kelly, look him up if you don't know him. He is married to Gabby Giffords who was shot in the head but made a reasonable recovery. I like him and what he has to say, he has been treated badly by the Trump Admin.

There will be no justice. There will be talk for a while and then it will be brushed under the carpet.
And worse things will happen.

Another incremental step towards a police state....

He will not be the President forever. He has two years.

Will Trump be able to pardon every single ICE agent?

Nodramalama85 · 13/01/2026 18:42

Terrifying to think what they'll feel able to get with going forward.

There will be no justice for anyone under the current administration, including the administration themselves.

The ICE boot boys have carte Blanche to do as they wish.

CatamaranViper · 13/01/2026 18:27

I always feel like the US completely aligns with the end justifies the means, if make a few mistakes along the way then it doesn't matter cos its all for the "greater good."

I doubt there will be any justice for Renee, and certainly no real accountability.
