Two U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents issued a warning to a Syracuse woman Tuesday to remove a social media account they said threatens federal agents. Paigelynne Gonyea said she believes they are referring to a January post where she named the ICE agent who shot protester Renee Good.

Gonyea was working as a poll worker Tuesday afternoon at the Central Library on Salina Street when agents called to meet with her. She said she invited them in. She said she did not want to meet them outside alone.

“I’ve seen the news, especially in Minnesota,” she said. “And I didn’t want anything to happen to me at all.”

The agents handed Gonyea a form letter that says they were investigating threats made against ICE personnel. The form says the agents had identified an Instagram account they believe breaks federal law. They asked her to remove and discontinue the behavior, according to the unsigned document she shared on Instagram.

She said: "BREAKING: The ICE agent who shot and killed Renee Good in broad daylight has been identified as Jonathan Ross by the Minnesota Star Tribune. I think today is a great day for Jonathan to be indicted!"

It's utterly insane to view this as a threat.

2. The brown shits are alive and well in 2026.

3. How they construe threats...

....in light of the rhetoric fron the right

Has Kilmeade been visited for calling the murder of the homeless on nationalTV?

Fucking hypocrites and murderers

[AllaN01Bear]

18. and they are the ones who asked us to tone down our rethoric.

4. NAZI AMERICA......Proven more and more each and every day

5. "no warrant? fuck off!" slam!!!

[FakeNoose]

6. I guess they're going to track down all of us on DU

We've all said things about Jonathan Ross, the one who murdered Renee Good in broad daylight. It happened in front of several eye-witnesses, and Jonathan Ross needs to be charged with murder.

[Farmer-Rick]

10. That's what I've been thinking

A lot of us on DU have said worse things about Good's murderer. Encouraging an indictment is not a threat to anyone's life, unless you are a criminal.

[erronis]

13. They already get info from Xitter, facebuck/instagram, linkedin/microsoft

Apple may not actually cooperate but I wouldn't be sure.

[JoseBalow]

21. How often has DU been asked for user records?

[relogic]

29. That's the problem

The majority of LEO agencies (federal, state, and local) are culturally, attuned to our new fascism and endorse the killing of these and any of us who object to the authoritarianism.

[SergeStorms]

7. Everything is a threat.....

when you're a criminal.

We can't have the government's criminal agents exposed to the light of day, can we?

[cbabe]

8. "A form letter..."

[thesquanderer]

9. Federal intimidation of someone's 1st amendment rights... I smell lawsuit. (n/t)

[GiqueCee]

11. Trump's personal SS...

... is above the law as long as that evil bastard fouls the Oval Office, as well as the rest of Washington,D.C. for that matter. That plywood abortion of his beloved Arc de Trump is the latest addition to his vandalism of the capital.
Republicans could stop him, but they won't, 'cause they're just as bad as he is, and they'll own this for the rest of their rotten lives.

12. I REALLY want to add this quote to my signature line...but I will instead merely reposting it (altered) in solidarity:

If you serve in ANY capacity in this criminal cabal, masquerading as a Presidential administration, you should know this fact - this term WILL end, and the laws broken and abused WILL be investigated, charged and adjudicated; and the guilty WILL serve time for their crimes. America PROMISES that much still... justice still matters, even when it is being abused and tortured in service of a scumbag 80-year old pig.

"BREAKING: The ICE agent who shot and killed Renee Good in broad daylight has been identified as Jxxxxxxn Rxxs by the Minnesota Star Tribune. I think today is a great day for Jxxxxxxn to be indicted!"

14. trumps SS Gestapo.

[live love laugh]

15. MAGA FBI is now a "thing".

[paleotn]

16. Demand away. Go pound sand, ya little nazis.

Something the ACLU would be all over.

[moonshinegnomie]

17. if an agents come to your door take the following actions

1) refuse to allow them in the house without a warrant
2) refuse to answer any of their questions w/o an attorney
3) close the door in their face

[bluestarone]

35. Might add here RECORD everything!

If possible!!

[surfered]

20. In support of this lady. I hereby make the following statement:

The ICE agent who shot and killed Renee Good has been identified as Jonathan Ross by the Minnesota Star Tribune.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

22. F6cking nazi scum

Fuck this maladministration.

[DemocracyForever]

23. The 1st amendment protects this post

It's clear that the Trump Nazis don't want to be held accountable for their unconstitutional lawbreaking.

[Figarosmom]

24. ? The name had already been released

By a newspaper. Can ICE agents read?

[muriel_volestrangler]

25. Not just the Minnesota Star Tribune: CNN, BBC, ABC, CBS, AP, Wikipedia

and that's just page one of the Google results for "renee good" "jonathan ross".

The only good thing about this is 2 ICE agents wasting their time on this is 2 fewer ICE agents grabbing innocent people off the street.

[buzzycrumbhunger]

26. Man oh man...

I guess I need to stay alert, given the number of guillotines I’ve posted in the wild.

[58Sunliner]

27. Did they choose someone at random to threaten?

I guess the media all have lawyers so they scapegoat a private individual. Bastards.

[Qutzupalotl]

28. Why was the agent hiding behind a mask

and not displaying his name and badge number like real law enforcement does?

Why should a private citizen be harassed for doing what the officer should have been doing from the start? His failures are not her problem.

If knowing who an officer is endangers him, it’s time to examine his conduct!

30. I interviewed her today!

In January, Paige reposted a newspaper article naming the ICE agent who shot and killed Renee Good, a U.S. citizen, on video.
This week, two ICE agents tracked down her old address, pulled her DMV photo, built a file on her, and showed up at the polling place where she was working to demand she delete it.
That's not doxxing. The Star Tribune printed his name the day after the shooting. That's the government punishing a citizen for repeating something it didn't like.
She told me the whole thing today. Watch it, then ask yourself who they come for next.

31. Also

It's also worth noting that she has a gofundme to help her pay for legal assistance in fighting back. This is the link: https://gofund.me/1b031d869

32. How is that a threat? If the guy hadn't shot Renee Good, he wouldn't have been identified and named.

[Starfury]

33. And as a result, they've now drawn MORE attention to the original post.

Bunch of incompetent fools...

[KPN]

34. What's his name again? Jonathan Ross?
