Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche said in a statement there was “no basis” for an investigation. The statement comes as new polling shows over half of Americans say the shooting was unjustified.
Justice Department officials said on Jan. 13 there is “no basis” for an investigation into the killing of Renee Nicole Good, the mother of three whose fatal shooting by an immigration enforcement agent sparked protests across the country.
“There is currently no basis for a criminal civil rights investigation,” Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche said in a statement referring to Good.
The 37-year-old was fatally shot on Jan. 7 in Minneapolis, Minnesota by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent Jonathan Ross, when she moved her car forward near the ICE agent. Her death has inspired widespread protests against the Trump administration’s militarized use of the Department of Homeland Security.
Since we’re impeaching Noem, then we must also impeach Bondi and Blanche. This administration is a horrific, shameful disgrace!
There are a lot of people that will need to be dealt with once this chapter of American history is behind us.
Behind us? This has ALWAYS been America. These guys are just too stupid to play the game right. You think this is the first white lady murdered by a federal agent that didn’t merit an investigation? Think its the tenth?
I find it highly unlikely that Republicans will vote to impeach/convict one of their own. The impeachment charges are little more than theater, which is sadly all the elected Democrats in the House and Senate are in a position to do. I’m afraid that the resolution to this constitutional crisis is in the hands of the people, not their elected representatives.
It’s not enough to just remove them from power. They shouldn’t go on to live a life of luxury giving talks on Fox News or whatever.
