Minnesota and the Threat of American Authoritarianism
In the span of three weeks, federal ICE agents have killed two American citizens on the streets of Minneapolis. Renee Good, a 37-year-old mother and poet, was shot three times through her windshield on Jan. 7. Alex Pretti, a 37-year-old nurse who cared for veterans in intensive care, was shot ten times on Jan. 24—video shows border patrol agents pinning him down before killing him. Neither had a criminal record. Neither was the target of any immigration enforcement action.
