The Radical Who Played Stupid Games and Won a Stupid Prize: The Renee Good Saga

Listen up, America. We’ve got another chapter in the endless saga of left-wing lunatics thinking they can play hero against the men and women keeping our borders secure. Renee Nicole Good, a 37-year-old Minneapolis resident, decided January 7 was the day to escalate her anti-ICE obsession into a full-blown disaster. She ended up dead after trying to turn her SUV into a battering ram against federal agents doing their job. But hey, in the twisted world of progressive activism, she’s now a martyr. Let’s peel back the layers on this mess, because the revelations keep piling up like snow in a Minnesota winter—and they’re not pretty.

From Poet to Protester: Who Was Renee Good?

Renee Good wasn’t just some random driver caught in the wrong place at the wrong time. Born in Colorado Springs, she was a U.S. citizen, a mother of three—including a six-year-old son she’d just dropped off at school that morning—and a self-described poet and guitarist who “sparkled” and was “made of sunshine,” if you believe the flowery tributes. She moved to Minneapolis recently after her husband died suddenly in 2023 at age 36, looking for a fresh start. Sounds tragic, right? But dig deeper, and you find a woman neck-deep in radical activism, hell-bent on disrupting Immigration and Customs Enforcement operations.

Good lived just blocks from where the fatal confrontation went down on a snowy south Minneapolis street. She wasn’t there by accident. Revelations show she was part of organized “ICE Watch” networks—those shadowy groups of activists who patrol neighborhoods, track federal agents via encrypted chats like Signal, and use tactics straight out of an anarchist playbook to sabotage deportations. She wasn’t observing; she was obstructing.

The Wife’s Role: “Drive, Baby, Drive!”

Enter Becca Good, Renee’s wife and apparent partner in crime—literally. Video from the scene captures Becca in hysterics right after the shooting, slumped in the snow with their dog, sobbing, “I made her come down here. It’s my fault.” And “They killed my wife—they shot her in the head.” Harsh stuff, but let’s not gloss over the details. Becca was right there, egging on the chaos.

Eyewitness accounts and footage reveal Becca got out of the SUV to film and confront the agents, a classic move in these activist circles to create viral outrage. As agents approached Renee’s maroon SUV, demanding she exit, Becca was heard yelling, “Drive, baby, drive!” Renee floored it, aiming straight at an agent standing inches from her bumper. Becca even tried to jump back in but got left behind as Renee sped forward. This wasn’t a panicked escape; it was a deliberate act, with Becca as the hype woman.

The couple wasn’t new to this. They’d been stalking the agents all day, blocking their vehicles, shouting taunts, and impeding arrests. Becca’s post-shooting breakdown? She admitted she dragged Renee into the fray. In a statement two days later, on January 9, Becca thanked supporters nationwide but couldn’t erase the fact that their actions turned a routine operation into a deadly standoff.

Trained to Disrupt: The Anti-ICE Boot Camp

Here’s where it gets really juicy—and infuriating. Recent revelations confirm Renee Good wasn’t some amateur protester. She underwent specialized “ICE resistance training,” a thorough regimen teaching activists how to spot federal vehicles, form blockades, record encounters for social media ammo, and generally make life hell for agents enforcing the law. These sessions cover what to do (obstruct, film, rally crowds) and what not to do (cooperate, back down).

Good was described as an “ICE Watch warrior,” leading road blockades and harassing agents throughout the day on January 7. She parked her SUV perpendicular to the road, blasting her horn to alert others and create confusion. When cornered, she reversed, then surged forward—directly into the path of the agent. This wasn’t spontaneous; it was scripted from the training manual of far-left groups who treat border security like a game they can cheat at.

And get this: Good’s actions echo a pattern. These networks use whistles, patrols, and real-time alerts to help targets evade capture. Renee and Becca drove into Minneapolis specifically to join the protests, tailing agents and agitating. It’s organized interference, plain and simple, designed to turn deportations into spectacles of “resistance.” But when you play chicken with armed federal officers, don’t be shocked when you lose.

The ICE Agent’s Ordeal: Been There, Dragged That

Now, about the agent who pulled the trigger—Jonathan Ross, a veteran ICE officer who’s no stranger to this kind of insanity. Back in June 2025, Ross was involved in another arrest gone wrong. Trying to nab a Mexican national convicted of sexual abuse, Ross reached into the suspect’s car. The guy sped off, trapping Ross’s arm and dragging him, causing serious injuries to his hand and arm. He recovered, but it left scars—physical and otherwise.

Fast-forward to January 7. Ross and his team were in Minneapolis for a massive enforcement op, rounding up criminals amid rising tensions. Protesters like Good harassed them relentlessly. When she gunned her engine toward him, Ross fired two shots through the windshield in self-defense, hitting Good in the head. She died at the scene.

Ross was hospitalized briefly afterward—checked out and released the same day, now home with family. But the hits keep coming. Protests erupted nationwide, with crowds calling it murder and demanding his head. Officials labeled Good’s actions “domestic terrorism,” praising Ross for following protocol under fire. He acted to protect himself and his team from a vehicle weaponized against them.

What Happens Next for the Hero in the Crosshairs

Ross isn’t out of the woods yet. A full investigation is underway—standard procedure after any officer-involved shooting. Expect bodycam reviews, witness statements, and forensic breakdowns to confirm what video already shows: Good initiated the threat. With top brass backing him, saying he “followed his training,” Ross will likely be cleared and back on duty soon. But in this climate, he’ll face smears from the outrage machine, maybe even threats.

The bigger picture? This incident ramps up scrutiny on ICE training, recently trimmed to 47 days in a nod to efficiency under the new administration. Critics whine it’s too short, but when radicals like Good turn cars into weapons, agents need to react fast. Ross’s prior brush with danger proves these aren’t isolated flukes; they’re the cost of doing business against a “lunatic fringe” brainwashed to hate law enforcement.

America First means securing our streets from criminals—and the enablers who shield them. Renee Good’s story is a cautionary tale: Mess with the bull, get the horns. Her choices led here, leaving a family shattered and a nation divided. But the agents? They’ll keep grinding, because someone’s got to clean up the mess the open-borders crowd created. Stay vigilant, folks—this fight’s just heating up.
