Renee Nicole Good, the Minnesota woman who was fatally shot by an ICE officer, belonged to a Minneapolis-based “ICE Watch” group that actively tracked immigration enforcement operations and trained activists to interfere with agents, including by blocking law enforcement vehicles.
ICE Watch chapters, which have cropped up in communities across the country in recent years, train activists to monitor ICE activity using purpose-built apps and alert allies who have been trained to flood an operation area and interfere with arrests being made.
An Instagram account identified as “MN Ice Watch” instructs to report the locations and appearances of ICE agents. The account has posted photos across Minneapolis of law-enforcement agents, vehicle license plate numbers, and ICE officers’ faces; the account generates information via anonymous reports and submissions from local activists.
On a tab titled “Education,” the account promotes information about how to “de-arrest” individuals who have been arrested by law enforcement by “physically removing an arrestee from a law enforcement officer’s grips, opening the door of a car or pressuring law enforcement officers to release an arrestee.” The “de-arrest primer” goes on to describe the benefits of blocking police vehicles.
“If you don’t have a crowd asserting pressure there may be some interference charges that come with blocking a police vehicle that may be more easily handed down for only one or two people blocking a police vehicle, but in many cases these are misdemeanor offenses and catch and release,” the primer notes.
Good, whose affiliation with MN ICE Watch was first reported by the New York Post, was shot and killed on Wednesday by an ICE officer in Minneapolis. DHS sources confirmed her membership in the group to Fox News.
Videos of the now-viral shooting show Good operating an SUV parked perpendicularly to block a street where ICE operations were taking place. After several moments, Good drives forward as an ICE agent approaches her vehicle from the front. The officer opens fire as the vehicle approaches, firing once through the windshield and twice more through the driver’s side window.
DHS sources told Fox that Good had followed ICE agents to two separate locations before she was shot in what the Trump administration says was self-defense. Good was blocking the roadway to disrupt law enforcement at the time and Good was “stalking and impeding” agents all day prior to the shooting, DHS Secretary Kristi Noem said at a Thursday press conference.
The tactics DHS says Good was employing appear to be in keeping with those advocated by the ICE Watch group she belonged to.
MN ICE Watch distributed pamphlets to the community last summer on the subjects of “Building a Midwest Revolutionary Abolitionist Movement”; “Stepping up: Ways your community can defend itself from the police”; and “How to get ready for a demonstration.” The group also distributed a field guide on the Minneapolis Police Department squad vehicle numbers. And, six days ago, the account posted a video of Malcom X saying, “You don’t get freedom peacefully.”
In June 2025, the Minneapolis-based ICE Watch chapter organized a protest in support of Isabel Lopez, a resident who showed up to a Mexican restaurant after local activists reported online that it was being swarmed by Homeland Security and ICE agents. Law-enforcement officials later confirmed that the federal presence was related to a criminal investigation, not an immigration enforcement operation; by that time, activists had already encouraged locals to show up at the restaurant to protest.
Lopez was accused of obstructing, attacking, and kicking federal ICE agents, and throwing a softball at a local Sheriff’s deputy during the protest. Minneapolis ICE Watch called her a “crucial defender of [First Amendment] rights” and the rest of our inalienable human rights” at the time.
The Instagram account also recently promoted the “Stop ICE Plate Tracker,” just one of many ICE-tracker services that “catalogues vehicles identified in public spaces used in raids.” Although last year the Trump administration pressured Apple to remove from its App Store some of the most popular ICE-tracker apps, many are still available. A cursory search of tracking services after the ICE shooting in Minneapolis on Wednesday shows how activists are using them to monitor officers.
“ICEinmyarea.org” has multiple listings for recently spotted ICE agents near Minneapolis. Near a Starbucks in Robbinsdale, users posted a photo of a police car and black SUV with the caption, “Agents emerged from black unmarked SUV and approached people in white SUV. Robbinsdale police were dispatched and successfully removed ICE agent from the scene.” In Eagen, users posted a location pin with the caption, “They were getting gas at the Holiday. Didn’t have a chance to get a picture. Two white sprinter vans. All wearing masks and full gear. Saw at least 6 people.” In the 24 hours after Good’s death, users posted twelve sightings of ICE agents in the area on “ICEinmyarea.org.”
The app “F.I.R.E.” operates an interactive map on which users have posted at least nine officer sightings in Minnesota over the past 24 hours at a Walmart and near a school, among other locations. There are community threads from Minnesota on Reddit that likewise pinpoint agents’ locations. Individuals who downloaded ICEBlock before it was taken off the App Store last year can still use its services and post ICE sightings.
A Minneapolis ICE Watch group on Facebook, which describes itself as an “Autonomous Collective Documenting & Resisting Against ICE, Police, And All Colonial Militarized Abuse,” has not been active since last year, but similarly encourages residents to report ICE activity in detail.
Good, a mother-of-three, learned of ICE Watch through her 6-year-old son’s charter school community, the Post reported. Southside Family Charter School in South Minneapolis says in its mission statement that it involves “children in political and social activism, encouraging creative expression, offering a wide range of electives and advocating for children and families.”
The school integrates “social justice into every grade level, telling the stories of the people, not the people in power, and helping students understand history and their role in making the world a better place,” according to its website, and encourages students and families to accomplish social-justice projects together.
In 2015, for example, when Minneapolis residents started an encampment to protest the death of Jamar Clark, a young black man shot by cops, three Southside Family Charter School classmates, ages five, five, and six, were photographed and asked to describe the sit-in in one word each: “Lonely, excited, happy.”

Social Justice is a euphemism for criminal rioting.
One’s actions have consequences.
This is a classic case of FAFO and this woman chose poorly.
Moreover, this officer was involved in a previous incident where he was dragged by a vehicle for about 100 yards and sustained injuries.
It really is just common sense: if you try to run over law enforcement personnel, they WILL shoot back.
I support ICE and all our law enforcement!! It is the responsibility of all law abiding citizens to obey the instructions of our law enforcement officers!
WHY ISN’T ANYONE TALKING ABOUT HER STALKING THEM ALL MORNING BEFORE ALL THIS HAPPENED?
How many more like her nationwide??
Paid protestors
By shifts
Planned
& Local Govt aids Protests
Why the major ICE protests at this particulary time? They wanted the attention off of the Governor and the welfare fraud and this has taken over the news reporting cycle. Again the strategy to deflect and distract when they are caught is one of the left’s hallmarks..
These activities are something like “Palestinian” women pushing their kids to throw rocks and shrads of glass at the Israeli soldiers who defend themselves and sometimes the kid gets hurt and dies. The screeching, hair pulling, fists waving and outcry of international public has no end, when they urge their own to self destruct in order to kill Israelis, there is a party and celebrating of a martyr. Live by the sword, die by the sword, what do they expect, molly codling after breaking the law deliberately, she knew what she was doing and now there is an outrage because of the consequence, brake the law, face the outcome.We are dealing with mentally deficient who should not be out on their own.
I have NO sympathy for these so called protesters!!! Peaceful protesting is one thing but interfering with law enforcement officers is asking for a reaction. In this case, she got one! ICE and Police have my support especially against hired thugs!!
This should come as a surprise to no one. Yet there’s disgraced governor A-Walz saying that she was “an innocent mother just picking up her child from school” and that the president and vice-president are the ones who are lying about her. These people have no shame whatsoever and nothing but lies come out of their mouths!
That horrible “school” should be closed forever. Teaching kids to hate and riot? What kind of inept, immoral parents are sending their innocent children to such a place? Not surprised it’s in Minneapolis.
You can protest all you want, be the minute you interfere with a legal Government operation you put your life and the lives of all those around you in danger.
You can tell she was a Democrat, she was dumber than a box of rocks!
Please someone tell me, why do the Democrats want to protect people who have broken the law. The scum that ICE, HSI, are trying to round up are Child Molester, Murders, Rapist, Drug Dealers. They are also in Minnesota to find out who stole billions of U. S. Taxpayer money.
When is the rest of America going to wakeup we are being brought down by the Communist in the country, many of us have been sounding the alarm for years, and getting nowhere and now it might be to late.
God Bless America!
God Protect are great Federal Employees!
A message to the domestic terrorist “ICE Watch” organizations: F**K AROUND AND FIND OUT.
It was posted that these anti ICE entities were groups,maybe leftist gangs would be a better description.I don’t understand the liberal,leftist democrats love affair with crime and criminals and why they think that it’s OK for the somalis to use taxpayer dollars to support a war in somalia that nobody in AMERICA wants.There seems to be a complete lack of common sense with the “sheep”that have been brainwashed.
and now add indoctrinating children to be pawns of the corrupt. sad
Ice Watch should be designated as a Home Grown Terrorist Group and be dealt with accordingly. They’re Anarchists and a direct threat to American Democracy and they safety and well being of American Civilized Christian Society!
These lawbreakers, who interfere with ICE, BORDER PATROL, FBI, LOCAL POLICE, SHERIFFS AND DEPUTIES, STATE PATROL, other LAW ENFORCEMENT agencies are absolutely commiting a crime.
They are unbelievable that they accepted payment to make themselves a criminal, just like an illegal person who made entry into our country without permission.
This is not a protest and a First Amendment Right action, this is a criminal activity that have put their lives at stack, but are willingly trying to hurt a fellow taxpaying citizen doing their job to protect his/her family and ours from a known lawbreaker.
THINK LOGICALLY BEFORE YOU ACCEPT PAYMENT TO BREAK A LAW, local, state or federal!
Follow the money that’s paying for these “professional” activists and SHUT THEM DOWN. IMHO, these paid activists/protesters are breaking the law and encouraging others to do the same; so are those funding them.
This is what happens when we allow intimidation of law-keepers after the death of a law-breaker who brought on their own death by their actions.
Thank you for this article. I wondered what kind of education/misinformation the protesters were receiving. This is so bad. I understand the watch group of which Ms. Good was a member, were told that ICE had no jurisdiction over citizens of the USA. They thought ICE had to turn away once they identified as US citizen. Sad.
Minnesota——-stick this “social justice bs up your frozen asses!
this is alot like 1933 roosevelt recognized communist russia they immediately flooded us with soviet agents thousands
I doubt she ever realized that she was a tool, a useful idiot, for those lefty “people in power.”
Interfering with law enforcement in an incident of any kind is against the law. You will be arrested and taken to jail. Since ICE officers are taking non citizens in to custody, the act of hampering their efforts is of course against the law.
If local law enforcement won’t arrest them and take them to jail, they should be taken into custody by ICE officers and taken where ever they are detaining illegals. Federal charges for interference should be filed and they can stay in custody until some judge can processes them through the system. By taking these people off the streets the protesters will either be in jail, or probably decide not to show up for fear of arrest.
These people and groups should be classified as domestic terrorists. Any interference with these agents should lead to arrest without bail. We need repercussions to re-teach people how to behave civilized.
She’s no saint, martyr or hero. She was a criminal. Obstruction of justice and assault with a deadly weapon results in a swift and deadly response. This is a sad lesson for protesters and activists. Do not interfere with any peace officer trying to do their job.
Play stupid games win stupid prizes…
Well surprise surprise. THE MEGA CORRUPT LYING BASTARDS IN THE FAKE COMMUNIST NEWS MEDIA, AS EXPECTED, said that poor innocent woman was confused and just trying to get out of the area. And that she was a sweet, kind, innocent mother who was murdered by the Nazi ICE agents.
SUCH A TYPICAL CROCK OF FECES.
The fact is, the world now has one less pathetic, America-hating, radical left-wing scum bag.
They forgot to teach her to duck when trying to run over a federal agents! She got exactly what she deserved! Now go arrest those who “trained” her!
Redo on my post, why cant these websites be shut down? This is insurection. All of these people need to be doxed themselves and protesters at their homes. What goes around comes around. Their neighbors need to know they are living with traitors.
Our Constitutional Republic is only for a moral and religious people. Unfortunately too many of our people are no longer very moral or religious. Our country is in trouble when so many of our people are interfering and attacking law enforcement officers who are just doing their job to protect our country and keep our people safe. I don’t know how much longer our country can last.
The “media” AKA sewer has changed this person into a “Minnesota Mom;” kind of like the gang-banging, human-trafficking “Maryland Dad.” The creepy mayor and Tampon Timmy have “declared” the ICE agent guilty of “murder.” So much for the presumption of innocence in our CONSTITUTION!
Sad but true, If you try to run over an law enforcement agent, this is what happens!
She deserved what she got
Why cant these websites be shut down. I surection is the first word that co.es to mind. All these mbers need to be doxed so if they live near us we can protest their homes like they do to our law enforcement. Fair is fair.
Stop the money. DHS, FBI, DOJ, go hard after the money. Stop it and the protesting will drop.
This woman was indoctrinated by the new public school system that has been in action for at least thirty years to believe that she might be a lesbo. After that everything was down hill for her life. She elected for suicide by police and her so called husband or lesbo other rooted her on for this end of life, shouting drive baby drive.
Thank you for this article. None of this information in this article is provided by the Legacy Media. Freedom of the Press does not mean that everything that is printed in the Press is honest and truthful. We need Tort Law reform to stop the false facts reported in the Legacy Media. This is especially true for public figures who have a higher threshold to prove their negligence lawsuits for defamatory statements and articles.
Why did Renee Nicole Good leave her children in Colorado to move to Minnesota without them? Did her life dramatically change due to becoming radicalized by Progressives?
History once again repeating itself. The demon-rats pulled this crap up until they attacked Ft. Sumter thereby starting the Civil War. Or as I remember some of the older “Southern” Democrats calling it as a kid, “The recent unpleasantness.”
Now instead of fighting to keep their slaves, they are fighting to keep illegal aliens and criminals.. I mean demon-rat voters, enforcers and the money gravy train.
I’m literally speechless. Our nation’s children are not only stupid, but they’re crazy, and their parents are cheering them on. Christ said, “Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do.” Man, that guy had more compassion in his little pinky than I’ve got in my whole heart. I’m more of a FAFO kind of guy.
In Minneapolis, an enraged female poet with a lesbian lover harassed ICE in her vehicle all day, culminating in an effort to stop her. She reacted the way sexually dysfunctional people tend to do when stretched to their limits after driving all the way from Colorado – as seen in three deadly sins and the consequences.
Three of the Seven Deadly Sins come into play with what we are experiencing today with gay pride and radical Islam
1. Pride is known as hubris or futility; it is considered the original and worst of the seven deadly sins—the most demonic—on almost every list. Pride is also thought to be the source of the other capital sins. Pride is viewed as the opposite of humility.
Pride is the state, the position in which the ego and the self are directly opposed to God: Unchastity, anger, greed, drunkenness and all that, are mere fleabites in comparison: it was through Pride that Lucifer became wicked: (Gay) Pride leads to every other vice: it is the complete anti-God state of mind. It severs the human spirit from God, as well as from the life and grace given by God’s presence.
2. Lust or lechery is intense longing. It is usually viewed as intense or unbridled sexual desire, which may lead to fornication (including adultery, rape, or bestiality), and other sinful and sexual acts; however, lust can also denote other forms of unbridled desire, such as for money or power.
3. Wrath can be defined as uncontrolled feelings of anger, rage, and even hatred. Wrath often reveals itself in the wish to seek vengeance. The neutral act of anger becomes the sin of wrath when it is directed against an innocent person; when it is unduly strong or long-lasting; or when it desires excessive punishment. If anger reaches the point of a deliberate desire to kill or seriously wound a neighbor, it is gravely against charity. Hatred is the sin of desiring that someone else may suffer misfortune or evil, and it is a mortal sin when one desires grave harm. The wrath of God is a separate issue as it is earned wrath from the sins of man.
Sad to hear of her passing, but she was wasting good air.
In any geographic location in any country in the world – aggressively insert yourself in a volatile situation. Calculate the odds nothing could go wrong. Who thinks like that ? Fools. Those who train and fund the training to ignorant people to behave like that hold huge legal responsibility for outcomes. The funders and trainers are revolutionists and know what they are doing. Misguided and rebellious idiots are used as pawns while the funders and trainers hide in the shadows. They laugh while authorities and the public turn on each other in blame for the loss. Turn over every stone and search every dark corner. Bring the funders and trainers in. They must be be held accountable.
What a shame, a mother of three, risking her life, for what? Who pays these people, prosecute to the fullest extent of the law. This woman was trained to this fate.
Her group, and any associated parent group or subchapter, should be designated by the Federal government as a terrorist group, or terrorist-supporting group. Any who donate money to these groups, give them support of ANY kind or participate in ANY of their operations should be charged as a terrorist and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Those who “trained” her should be prosecuted and held liable for her death. Any and all assets held by the group(s), as well as those of the individuals involved should be confiscated and used to compensate victims of their illegal activities or for financial support of future ICE operations, rather than taxpayer funding.
Legal deportations are not a new concept the recent resistance is and it’s due to Democrats seeing potential voters get deported and not being able to use these people to game the census I fully appreciate and support Ice and their efforts to make the United States safe I don’t understand why there are no consequences for Democrat leaders that encourage people to interfere and resist lawful immigration enforcement
Criminals obstructing and attacking law officers.
Three more Soros paid and trained evil sadistic anarchists bite the dust inN and OR. Always nice to hear some good news.
ICE and DHS need to start using water cannons, K-9 attack dogs, and rubber bullets to disperse the AMERICA-HATING, CRIMINAL-LOVING PROTESTING BASTARDS WITHIN SECONDS.
You mean the media is lying to us? Nooooo…
I’m a geezer … boomer … what have you … But while I was growing up … obstructing the police, while doing their job, was breaking the law. To me … it sounds as if Renee Good, while likely having misplaced sympathetic democrat empathy for southern invaders .. her mere presence, blocking law officers path, was breaking the law. I doubt if any of the ‘ICE’ agents told her to put her vehicle in gear and dash off. So her attempt if not to run down an officer of the law .. was to escape. Breaking the law makes you a criminal … escaping from the law as a criminal, (especially in the direction of an officer of the law .. on foot) suggests intent to harm / kill. In my layman’s understanding of the law as merely an individual who tries to obey the law … the law officer / ‘ICE’ agent, had every right to defend himself. It is too bad three children lost their mother … but that happens when a mother chooses to ignore the law.
The bottom line people is THIS:
Violent protests that threaten to hurt people and destroy property ARE ILLEGAL. Period. No discussion there. Thus, a car, used as a weapon is illegal and dangerous. Anyone being attacked by someone with a weapon, any weapon, has a right to protect themselves. Protestors MUST STOP THE VIOLENCE and people will stop being hurt….or worse. Protest all you want, but STOP THE DAMN VIOLENCE!
if you people want illegals in our country so much, then invite them to live WITH YOU IN YOUR HOME! Because the rest of us do not want these people here raping and murdering any more of our citizens, nor do we want them sex trafficking our children, or sucking up the money that should go to our low income needy citizens….like the billions stolen by the Somalis!! How you can defend these illegal leeches in our country boggles the mind. What kind of drugs are you on??? They are here illegally. They have broken our laws. There should be NO DISCUSSION. OUR “LAWS” ARE NOT “SUGGESTIONS.”
