Renee Nicole Good, 37, was an innocent woman who was just trying to leave the area. She was scared, and ICE agents killed her. It was murder. That was the shrill nonsense we heard for 36 hours. Then, the ICE officer’s cell phone footage clearly showed Good, unafraid, and accelerating her vehicle into a federal officer, prompting the agent to act in self-defense. Good was killed during the incident. You cannot run into federal officers or any law enforcement with your car. I know common sense is lacking among left-wingers, but get a grip, you clowns.

Good’s no martyr either. She’s a moron who, I’m sorry, got what was coming. This shooting was preventable, but she also knew the stakes. She was a professional activist who had led similar anti-ICE operations in the past and had even trained others to disrupt a federal law enforcement operation. It might as well be called ‘a guide to getting shot in the face by a cop.’  

Do they know they’re wrong? There’s a part of me that wonders if they’re being willfully ignorant out of political necessity. At its core, these deportation raids are draining the political lifeblood of the Democratic Party. Illegal immigration is how they’ve remained relevant in national politics. The population swells, Democrats find similar ethnic representation for the newly created congressional districts, and they’re in business. Why do you think tha party is so staunchly opposed to the census only counting American citizens in 2030?

Yet, another part of me truly believes these people are blind and stupid. Some of their takes about the video were simply not true, while others veered into fiction. Sure, these takes did make sense if you simply removed the agent standing in front of Good’s car.  

The best is that we know these people are wrong about everything. And so when a lefty makes a strong declarative statement, like this was murder, you know they’re going to eat mountains of crow, and they did. Whether they realize it or not, that cellphone footage wrecked their entire narrative. So, now it’s a prolonged tantrum, where the Democrats’ base voices their support for illegal aliens, lawlessness, and the assault and potential murder of law enforcement.  Why? Well, because Donald Trump is president. That’s another reason this side believes things that aren’t true. They need a reason to be out there to protest Trump, so they make things up.  

You can see how the Russian collusion hoax spread like wildfire. To this day, there are people who believe it to prop up a warped sense of reality. It’s better to believe lies than to accept that Trump won 2016 and 2024 handily. 

It truly shows the depths of the mental illness that is American leftism.
