Billionaire Bill Ackman doubled down on his decision to leave a $10,000 donation on a GoFundMe campaign supporting the federal immigration agent who shot and killed anti-ICE activist Renee Nicole Good — but admitted he didn’t “do any due diligence on the case” before seeking out the fundraiser. Ackman, 59, openly admitted to leaving the top donation on a GoFundMe for Jonathan Ross, the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent who fired three fatal “defensive shots” at Good last Wednesday. In a post on X, Ackman lamented that he had been “widely reviled (and worse) by many on social and mainstream...

Hedge fund billionaire Bill Ackman appears to have donated $10,000 to a fundraiser in support of ICE agent Jonathan Ross, who fatally shot Renee Nicole Good. William Ackman is listed as the top donor to a GoFundMe for Ross, which has already raised more than $160,000. Ackman also reposted the fundraiser on X. Ross has been embroiled in controversy since he shot Good, 37, in the face three times at a Minneapolis protest on Wednesday after she refused demands to exit her vehicle. ICE claimed that trouble arose after the mother-of-three deliberately tried to run Ross over with her burgundy...

Some celebrities donned anti-ICE pins at the Golden Globes on Sunday in tribute to Renee Good, who was shot and killed in her car by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer this week in Minneapolis. The black-and-white pins displayed slogans like “BE GOOD” and “ICE OUT,” introducing a political angle into the awards show after last year’s relatively apolitical ceremony. Mark Ruffalo wore one such pin on the red carpet, and other celebrities were expected to have them on display as well.

The same party that brought you the “Maryland Dad” narrative for Kilmar Abrego Garcia now wants to sell you the narrative of the innocent “Minnesota Mom" for Renee Nicole Good. Good is not a MS-13 gang member or a human trafficker like Abrego Garcia, but she’s not the scared and confused mom who just happened to find herself caught up in an ICE operation that she didn't understand and panicked. According to a new report, she was “an anti-ICE ‘warrior’ and was part of a group of activists who worked to ‘document and resist’ the federal immigration crackdown in Minnesota.”(snip)...

A new cellphone video released by Alpha News appears to show the perspective of an ICE agent involved in the fatal shooting of a woman in Minneapolis on Wednesday. Department of Homeland Security Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin said in a statement sent to Newsweek, "This footage corroborates what DHS has stated all along—that this individual was impeding law enforcement and weaponized her vehicle in an attempt to kill or cause bodily harm to federal law enforcement. The officer was in fear of his own life, the lives of his fellow officers and acted in self-defense. The American people can watch...

Renee Nicole Good’s wife was antagonizing ICE agents and even urged her to “drive baby, drive” just moments before the fatal shooting in Minneapolis, according to shocking new video taken on the agent’s own cell phone. The video — filmed by agent Jonathan Ross on Wednesday and obtained by Alpha News — shows the heated interaction between the Goods in the lead-up to the shooting. Renee can be seen behind the driver’s seat of the plum-colored Honda Pilot, while her wife, Rebecca, stands in the street next to the car. A dog is also sitting in the back seat, peering...

The ICE agent involved in the deadly Minneapolis shooting of Renee Nicole Good has been identified as Jonathan Ross. Ross was an 'experienced' officer, sources told the Minneapolis Star Tribune on Thursday.
