I mean, big picture here, like as we look at the state of Minnesota, right?
I mean, what legal recourse does the state actually have here?
And let me just drill down on that a little bit more and say, could in theory, because this is something that's been floated in multiple interviews I've heard with the mayor, Jacob Fry, if not the police chief, can the local police in Minneapolis go after ICE agents?
Those were the before times.
When you didn't have basically Trump's masked thugs out there just ripping people from their cars and places of work and places of worship and hospitals.
Okay, let's talk about the aftermath of the shooting, right?
Because an interesting thing happened at the U.S.
Attorney's Office.
Six federal prosecutors resigned this week over the Justice Department's handling of Renee Good and her case, and specifically the Justice Department's push to investigate Becca Good, who is Renee Good's wife, at the same time refusing to open an investigation into the ICE agent who shot Renee Nicole Good.
First of all, your just reaction to that and what legal grounds do they have to just have such an asymmetrical and unusual pursuit in terms of their investigation?
I mean, just the Roberts court coming back to just make things just a little bit worse every single fucking time.
But six federal prosecutors resigning from the case.
These were career prosecutors.
One of them was the acting U.S.
attorney who was appointed by Trump and is involved in another case that Trump is really obsessed with.
But first, just what are the implications of the case moving forward if you lose like the six top people in the office who are supposed to be pushing the investigation forward?
Oh, that's really interesting.
I mean, also, if the whole point of the investigation is to have sort of the final word on what really went down, this is a great way to engender public confidence in the report.
