The Rebellion has Begun

By | January 10, 2026

[January 10, 2026]  By now, most have heard of Renee Nicole Good and the events leading up to her tragic death.  It is appropriate that we examine the actions of Minnesota state and local authorities who have explicitly called for resistance to federal law enforcement.  By far, the most egregious action is Governor Tim Walz’s, who stated that he will deploy his National Guard as part of this resistance movement to halt ICE operations.  This means the Leftist Rebellion has begun.

This article is not about Ms. Good’s death or comments by her “wife,” as we await an FBI investigation, but about the reaction to it by political leaders.  That day, many Leftists were present to resist ICE from carrying out its lawful duties as directed by the President of the United States.  For many, the actions of ICE are controversial, but our system of government provides an effective, albeit slow, process for making changes if supported by the people.

In this “Minnesota Incident,” Governor Walz, AG Ellison, and Minneapolis Mayor Frey have found the ICE agent who shot Ms. Good guilty of murder.  Such comments reflect the verdict-first, trial-later mentality we are seeing more of from the radicals within the Democrat Party.  Of course, their actions are not being called out by the mainstream within their party, and that will have serious negative ramifications in the future.

In the context of this incident, it is important to note that ICE has faced a massive surge in assaults and death threats while performing its duties. The Minneapolis Star Tribune has violated its own internal policies and the principles of good-faith journalism by immediately identifying the ICE agent who shot Ms. Good. That is irresponsible behavior, though not surprising.

What Walz, Ellison, Frey, the Star Tribune, and others should have done is urged their supporters to protest without obstructing ICE. They should also have informed them that federal law must be respected and that defying it will have consequences. If there is any decency in Minnesota’s leaders, they will stop supporting mob rule, especially in this highly volatile environment they themselves have created.

At this stage, it has become clear that Walz and company support the lawlessness under which our federal law enforcement operates. We need to remember that federal law applies to us all, including the citizens of Minnesota, and that defiance of such laws paints them with the same broad brush that was used during the era of racial segregation.

This incident, like others – remember the George Floyd riots – represents a political opportunity. Yet they will assume no responsibility for what they themselves have encouraged and will do their best to cover their tracks by calling for more resistance and support for further mob rule. The “leaders” of Minnesota are appealing to the madness of the crowds to shut down federal enforcement of immigration laws.

As Governor, Tim Walz can deploy his National Guard for legitimate and lawful purposes. He and his brother Leftists may continue to resist the federal government through illegal, inappropriate, and dangerous acts. However, the U.S. Constitution’s Supremacy Clause prohibits a State from using force to thwart or defeat federal law. Such action is correctly defined as a Rebellion.

The rebellion has begun.

    I agree … the rebellion has begun. So, let’s bring it on. I for one will be practicing my 2nd Amendment rights.

    Excellent layout of the problem. We are now discovering more and more about how RADICAL and LEFT this Ms. Good is. She is a self-described BLM terrorist. Wow. How could that get missed by the police. She is also a self-described “agitator.” Yeah, how’d that work out for her?

    I can see how some people believe that Ms. Good was just trying to escape (illegally but still trying to get away from being arrested) and not trying to run over the ICE officer (although that is certainly what it appeared to be). But it is not a good idea to F around, by agitating armed officers and putting them in danger without yourself risking being shot. Plus her “wife” said “drive baby drive.” Ms. Good was encouraged to escape (like that works – nope). But the real crime here is the governor (Walz is an idiot and everyone now knows it), the boy mayor (Frey has the mentality of a high school jock), and the AG (a real leftist nutcase) are creating an environment where this is MORE LIKELY to happen again. This shows they don’t care at all about their citizens. These so-called leaders should be trying to calm down the situation, but they aren’t. This is bad leadership, and I think we all know why — the Democrat Party in Minnesota is flush with cash that came from fraud.

      Leftist “protestors” (agitators is a better term) are just cannon fodder. And they will never see it that way. Walz, Frey, others are playing on the lack of emotional control of these people. And who are the protestors? Mostly, white elderly. Why? I have no idea.

      Hey The Turk, thanks man. What folks don’t see, they don’t believe. I appreciate you getting the word out that the “wife” was using the crazy lady’s kid’s arms as an ashtray. Wild. Child abuse within her family. Good find. Child abuse is evil, and these two lesbians were okay with that.

    UPDATE: Crazy
    Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey dismisses new ICE shooting video, says agent ‘walked away with a hop in his step’

    The tense situation reached a deadly crescendo when another ICE agent instructed Renee to get out of her SUV, prompting her to reverse and then hit the gas as her wife encouraged her to flee.
    This is mental retarded doing mental retardation things.

    Violent radical leftists are being ignored by the media. This presents us with a twofold problem: 1. The violence itself. And 2. Those to support it by purposefully ignoring the negative consequences of violence. I see many Democrat politicians who will argue that those crossing the border illegally are here “legally” and cannot be arrested for their actions. Crazy town. Just look at Minnesota, the crazy state with leftist radicals running the show. I don’t know why the gov Timmie Walz hasn’t been arrested for insurrection against America. Gen. Satterfield calls this a rebellion, and maybe that is a more accurate claim. Sir, thank you for your time and effort to reinforce the fact that encouraging violence to achieve a political end is, in fact, rebellion.
