Minnesota state investigators say the FBI is blocking them from investigating the ICE shooting of Renee Good, a mother of three and award-winning poet who was killed in her car on January 7. The federal government's claims of immunity for the ICE officer — identified as Iraq War veteran Jonathan Ross — go against precedent, as does its refusal to cooperate with state authorities, says Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison, who is demanding a local and state-led investigation into Good's homicide and an end to the Trump administration's "smear tactics" against Good. "This is Third Reich stuff," adds Ellison, decrying the escalation in aggressive tactics employed by federal immigration officers in Minneapolis and throughout the country. "This is an unprecedented attack on American institutions."

We speak with two people who responded to the fatal shooting of Renee Nicole Good, a 37-year-old mother of three, by an ICE agent in Minneapolis Wednesday. Trump administration officials claim the agent acted in self-defense, but local officials, including Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey, reject that claim.
"This could happen to you in your city," says Robin Wonsley, member of the Minneapolis City Council. "This happening here in Minneapolis sets a tone for this to play out in many other cities."
The shooting comes after the Trump administration deployed over 2,000 ICE agents to Minnesota.
"This is not normal," says Edwin Torres DeSantiago with the Immigrant Defense Network, which monitors ICE activity and has received thousands of requests from Minnesotans who want to volunteer as "constitutional observers" of ICE in Minneapolis. "We've been seeing people terrorized all over the state and all over the country under the guise of protection."

Following the U.S. attack on Venezuela, the Trump administration has renewed its campaign to take over Greenland, which has been controlled by Denmark for more than 300 years. The White House says it's considering "a range of options," including the use of military force. Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen has warned that if the U.S. were to attack Greenland, it would spell the end of NATO.
"Greenland is not up for sale," says Aaju Peter, a Greenlandic Inuit activist and attorney, who says Indigenous Greenlanders want their independence from both the U.S. and Denmark.
We also speak with analyst Pavel Devyatkin, who says the U.S. is "acting like a rogue state" and enacting a policy of "pure imperialism."
