Let's start in Minneapolis.
Yesterday, Renee Nicole Good was shot in her car by ICE agents.
She was 37 years old, a U.S.
citizen.
Her killing drew hundreds of people to protest in the streets.
They were met with armed federal agents who deployed chemical irritants.
It comes amid a widespread immigration crackdown in the city, long opposed by Minnesota's state government.
President Trump and Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem described the shooting as seeming to be in self-defense, a characterization rejected by Governor Tim Walz, the local mayor, and some witnesses at the scene.
By now, you might have seen the video of the fatal encounter, verified by multiple news organizations.
From the video, Good's car is seen blocking a lane on a snowy residential street.
