In the month of January 2026 Donald Trump's hired thugs from DHS and ICE terrorized the good people of Minneapolis and Los Angeles by openly and brazenly murdering three United States citizens.

Renee Good and Alex Pretti's deaths have both been ruled as homicides by independent medical examiners.

Keith Porter, a father of two daughters was shot to death by ICE agent Brian Palacios on New Years Eve in Los Angeles, California. Porter was shooting into into the air to celebrate New Years Eve with an AK-47.

Off duty officer Palacios labeled him an active shooter and killed him.



On January 24th, 2026, Alex Pretti was shot 9 to 10 times in the back after his legal carry pistol was removed from it's holster by an ICE agent. He had been observing ICE operations and became involved with ICE agents who were throwing a women to the ground. Agents swarmed Mr. Pretti pinning him down. One agent removed a gun from Pretti's holster after which shots were fired directly at Pretti, killing him.

Pretti was a Veteran's Administration ICU nurse.

The men who fired into Pretti were Jesus Ochoa , a Border Patrol Agent and Raymundo Guitierrez who is a customs officer.

On January 7th, 2026, Renee Good was a mother of three kids who was serving her community as an Ice observer after dropping her kids off at school. Good was blowing a whistle to alert the neighborhood . She and her wife tried to leave the area after an Ice agent reached into her car.

Driving away, Renee Good was shot three times, once in the head. Her assailant was ICE Agent Jonathan Ross. He was in close proximity to Goods car.

After the shots were fired Ross was heard to say the charming phrase . . . . . Fuckin' Bitch .

The public responses from the Department of Homeland Security and ICE to the Good and Pretti incidents was to immediately label each of them as a domestic terrorist. This labeling was repeatedly voiced by Kristi Noem, Steven Miller and Greg' Bovino.

The Trump administration also labeled Pretti and Good as domestic terrorists.

There has been an avalanche of constitutional stomach punches along with a sweeping away of time honored foreign policy practices and global economic traditions and adjustments.

This article took a long time to write. This is due to the fact that we are are in the middle of this autocratic tsunami.

It can be much too much to digest.



The general idea for this article is to explain why people are out in the streets protesting and usually it comes down to a few issues if the protests are fairly quick forming.

However the sheer amount of protestable stuff coming from Trumps administration seems to average a few per week. In this case Trump had just taken Nickolas Maduro from Valenzuela by force the week before, the Epstein debacle was raging in congress as well as a wide host of other attempted throat slashes to our American Federalist Democracy.



All of these are the fault of one attention seeking man.

The first rally was called ICE OUT for GOOD which occurred in downtown Los Angeles on Saturday January 10th , 2026 three days after Goods demise.

The crowd was diverse. Los Angeles is really just a 500 square mile bedroom community. Family is the predominant building block in the social structure here.

Hispanic people make up about 47 percent of the Los Angeles population.

Caucasions = 27 percent .

Armenians = 3 percent.

African Americans = 8.5 percent.

Asians = 12 percent.

Catholic = 30 percent.

Jewish = 8 to 17 percent.

All of these groups are basically family oriented populations.

As images of ICE abuses have filled the media-sphere, a sore nerve has been re-struck in LA.. After having gone through months of theatrics and cruelties at the hands of Donald Trump's ICE goons , thousands of Angelenos of all ages and races showed up in Pershing square on a perfect California day.

ICE has been decimating and abusing the los Angeles immigrant community and that means rendering blows to the heart of their strength which is the family.

The family is the beating heart of Los Angeles.

As before Mothers and fathers came with their sons and daughters. The elderly and the handicapped where in attendance, many of whom participated in a march to City Hall and the Municipal Federal Holding Center.

There were Democratic Socialist groups and Revolutionary communists along with ACLU folks, teachers, artists, union members, baby carriages, college and high school people. A large part of the signage was original.

A certain change was noticed ; however, the crowd's ethnic makeup had changed somewhat. There seemed to be fewer Hispanic angelenos and a greater number of Caucasian participants than the two protests that had shut down the 101 months before which had been highly atteded my Hispanic Angelenos.

Perhaps Trumps tactics of sending in ICE to churches, schools and workplaces had caused people to remain at home and not in public.

The heartening thing for this observer was that some of those who have privilege were now standing up for those whom the Supreme Court and ICE have profiled with impunity.

The police presence during the day was somewhat minimal, with most personnel seemingly employed in blocking access to the 101 freeway from protestors.

The event in Los Angeles which was named ICE OUT for GOOD was part of a “National Weekend of Action “ was organized by the Indivisible Movement, Move on, and the ACLU amongst others.

It started at 2 pm

The march was peaceful . Thousands of folks participated. Things ended around 6 pm with 1 or two people being detained.
