At least six prosecutors in the Minneapolis US Attorney’s Office have resigned in protest over the Justice Department’s push to probe Renee Good’s widow.

New cellphone footage from the ICE agent involved in the fatal shooting of Renee Nicole Good was released last Friday.

The POV footage shows Good’s wife, Becca Good, talking trash to the ICE agent as he approaches her wife’s SUV.

“You wanna come at us?” Good’s wife said, taunting the ICE agent. “I say go get yourself some lunch, big boy.”

“Get out of the f*cking car!” an ICE agent said as he tried to open Good’s door.

Good accelerates her vehicle as her wife shouted, “Drive, baby! Drive!”

The ICE agent discharged his weapon and fatally shot Good as she tried to run him over.

The Justice Department was reportedly pushing to probe Becca and Renee Good’s ties to groups that monitor and disrupt ICE.

CBS News reported:

At least six career prosecutors in the Minneapolis U.S. Attorney’s office — including Assistant U.S. Attorney Joe Thompson — have resigned after the office was tasked with investigating the shooting of Renee Good, according to three sources familiar with the situation.

Thompson also previously served as the acting U.S. attorney for Minnesota; he was appointed by President Trump in June and served in the position until October. He resigned from the attorney’s office along with Harry Jacobs, Melinda Williams, Thomas Calhoun-Lopez, Ruth Schneider and Tom Hollenhurst.

He was the lead prosecutor in the Feeding Our Future case, a COVID-era $250 million scheme which targeted programs that were meant to feed schoolchildren. Since then he’s charged defendants for allegedly defrauding housing and autism service programs, claiming that fraud in Minnesota has topped $9 billion, a figure which Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz has pushed back on.

At least four prosecutors have resigned from the DOJ’s Civil Rights Division in protest after the unit refused to investigate the ICE agent who killed protestor Renee Nicole Good in self-defense.

Widow? Does that mean that the dearly departed was the man in their relationship?

The insane extremist terrorist Becca Good exhorted her Lesbian Lover Renee Goid to run over the Federal Ice Agents with the vehicle, thus accessory to and conspiracy to attempted murder of a Federal LEO, all the while obstructing justice and execution of a legitimate law enforcement operation.

Seize her $1.5 million go-fund-me arrest her and charge her with terrorism and accessories to attempted murder. No more messing around with these communist terrorist Lesbians.

It’s good when the trash takes itself out. Blondi needs to promote some prosecutors from red states. She won’t. But Trump needs to make it happen.

It’s my understanding that masculine lesbians truly hate it when men probe them.

But some agent might get some hazard pay out of it.

“At least six prosecutors in the Minneapolis US Attorney’s Office have resigned in protest over the Justice Department’s push to probe Renee Good’s widow“

This is common sense portion of the investigation: Was there intent? What was the history? Were they connected to terrorist groups? Was money being transacted? What was her history, has this happened before? Is this connected to a wider funded terrorist organization? Absolutely, these questions must be answered, and not for political reasons. This is national security, Republic, and Constitutional survival questions that have to be answered.

Why would they quit when this is an essential part of an investigation into the truth and potentially into national security questions? This looks like the US Attorneys office is infiltrated by partisan hacks and not professionals doing a job for the United States.

I have to ask how much of the US government is a giant seditious waste of taxpayer money?

I hope the money raised through GoFundMe is put in an account out of her reach for the children - especially the ones the ‘widow’ has been accused of putting cigarettes on, causing the mother to lose custody but chose to stay with the alleged abuser anyway.

Those poor children never had a chance with the two of them.

“Probing” could have a couple of meanings. The one I’m thinking of makes me want to hurl.

I can think of a million and a half reasons for why this is a very good idea...

There’s an argument to be made for waiting a bit.

Especially when your enemies’ minions aren’t terribly bright.

This appears to be a good way to get rid of leftist US attorneys.
