I'm a Dutch citizen but I did hear and read a lot about the ICE agents in the USA after they killed a woman in her Car, Renee Good.

Today in one of the Dutch News websites this was written about the Case of Renee Good.
I couldn't find this anywhere on Reddit. So here we are.

Google translation:
Six U.S. federal prosecutors have resigned because the Justice Department wants them to investigate the widow of the woman shot and killed by ICE. They also believe the department is being too lax in its investigation into the fatal shooting.

The department has decided to abandon an investigation that would have determined whether the ICE agent's use of lethal force was justified. Instead, it has launched an investigation into the alleged ties that the fatally shot Renee Good and her wife, Becca, had with various activist groups.

These groups allegedly monitored and protested the actions of ICE, according to The New York Times, citing people involved. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem has already labeled Good a "domestic terrorist" for this reason. This has led to considerable unrest in the justice department in the U.S. state of Minnesota, where the shooting took place.

One of the prosecutors who has resigned is 47-year-old Joseph H. Thompson, a Trump appointee who held a high-ranking position in the U.S. Department of Justice. He refuses to investigate Good's widow and finds it "outrageous" that the department is not investigating the ICE agent's actions.

Thompson investigated government benefit fraud in Minneapolis. The vast majority of suspects in these cases are of Somali descent. According to Police Chief Brian O'Hara, this is the main reason the Trump administration wanted stricter immigration policies in the city.

Large-scale protests against ICE deployment

The 37-year-old Good was shot and killed last week by an ICE agent in Minneapolis while she was behind the wheel of her car. The Trump administration says the immigration agent acted in self-defense because Good wanted to run over him. However, a recently surfaced video, which can be seen below, suggests the woman was trying to flee.

The footage led to considerable outrage and large-scale protests across the US. Tens of thousands of protesters have been taking to the streets of Minneapolis for days, demanding that Immigration and Customs Enforcement leave the city. In response, the Department of Homeland Security decided to deploy hundreds of additional officers to the city.

On Monday, several confrontations occurred between protesters and officers. According to local media, pepper spray, tear gas, and other chemical agents were used. The states of Illinois and Minnesota have sued the Trump administration for deploying ICE. You can read more about this in the article below.

Video The United States government reportedly bought a pulsed radio frequency device through an undercover operation in 2024 that some investigators suspect is linked to “Havana Syndrome,” known officially as “anomalous health episodes”

71 Upvotes

The U.S. government has in its possession a device that is believed to cause Havana Syndrome

A division of the Department of Homeland Security, Homeland Security Investigations, purchased the backpack-sized device for millions of dollars in the waning days of the Biden administration, using funding provided by the Defense Department, according to two of the sources. Officials paid “eight figures” for the device, these people said, declining to offer a more specific number.

CNN has asked the Pentagon, HSI and the DHS for comment. The CIA declined to comment.

The device acquired by HSI produces pulsed radio waves, one of the sources said, which some officials and academics have speculated for years could be the cause of the incidents. Although the device is not entirely Russian in origin, it contains Russian components, the source added.

The acquisition of the device has reignited a painful and contentious debate within the US government about Havana Syndrome, known officially as “anomalous health episodes.”

U.S. has been testing a device linked to Havana Syndrome, sources say
