And the Justice Department is now pushing to investigate Goode's widow, Rebecca Goode, instead of the ICE officer who killed Renee Nicole Goode.

A decision that's resulted in the resignation of six career prosecutors from the U.S.

Attorney's Office in the state, including the acting U.S.

attorney for Minnesota himself, Joseph Thompson, who, by the way, was a Trump appointee.

The problem with the administration's attempt to offer its own politically convenient reality here is that Rene Good's killing was caught on video.

It has now been seen by millions of people, and their verdict seems pretty clear.

most Americans reject the idea that Good was a domestic terrorist.

A CNN poll found that registered voters called the incident inappropriate by a two-to-one margin, 56% to just 26%.

Meanwhile, people in Minnesota have taken to the streets to protest what is literally a 3,000-agent ICE invasion into their state.

That response has only escalated tensions.

Federal agents have been filming protesters and pulling them from their cars and slamming them to the ground.

In one case, a protester was shot in the leg.

It is pretty clear that ICE, with the support of this White House, is using extraordinary and extreme force here, all while allegedly pursuing criminals and the, quote, worst of the worst.

But if protesters are getting arrested and shot and killed, what tools are left to stop a masked and seemingly lawless federal force?

Are there legal avenues available to anyone to push back against ICE?

How do you stop mercenaries if the guy they're working for is the president of the United States?

And what happens when that guy threatens to invoke the Insurrection Act?

And when and how will Renee Good's family ever get justice?

Joining me today to help answer those questions and so many more is Crooked's very own Leah Littman, who is host of Strict Scrutiny, a professor of law at the University of Michigan Law School and author of the book Lawless.

Leah, it is always so great to talk with you, but especially after this week, I have so many legal questions.
