Whatever operation ICE agents were there to conduct that day had ended. The only reason the ICE agents were still there is because one of the agents got his vehicle stuck in a snow bank and he called for other agents to come and help push him out. This fact is from ICE Barbie herself and she said so in her first statement.
So no, Renee Good was not impeding enforcement.
Just wanted to clear this up because there is so much misinformation and outright lies being told about that morning from the Con, Noem, Vance and their cult.

Who said we weren't supposed to say that Good was there because of ICE being in her neighborhood? Its known that she had just dropped her daughter off to school, but I think its understood that she and her wife were there to watch the ICE agents as a way of protecting their neighborhood.
Neither Good nor her wife did ANYTHING to justify that outcome.
Did I misunderstand your post?

(10,719 posts)Her partner says she feels somewhat responsible because they were just driving through after dropping her 6 yr old off at school 2 blocks away. Her partner saw ICE and asked Renee to drop her off. Renee was in that spot less than 3 minutes and video shows cars going around her.

(9,019 posts)There is no video that shows anything remotely close to that. Everything else in Noem's first statement was a lie, so why would you believe that one piece of her statement was true? Sorry, but I am sure that is as big of a lie as everything else she said. Obviously Renee Good was NOT impeding law enforcement, and the proof of that is while her car was stopped in the middle of the street (as were multiple ICE vehicles), video shows cars easily passing by her vehicle both in the front and the back so she technically wasn't blocking anyone.

(40,227 posts)Kristi Noem wore her cowboy outfit to the TV broadcast, and she never gave us a reason why the ICE-goons were in Minneapolis.
Illegal immigrants are NOT invading Minnesota in January, I can guarantee you. Maybe a few Canadian hunters are sneaking in the back way, but that's it.
ICE's job is to protect our borders from the heathens who are coming in under the radar at the southern border. So they need to get their asses down to Texas, Arizona and New Mexico now. Get the hell out of Minneapolis, Chicago, San Francisco, Portland and everywhere else.

Or maybe he will do us all a favor and take care of it himself.
