Media Miss by the right: At least five people have been killed in immigration crackdowns
Wednesday’s Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer-involved shooting marks at least the fifth person killed during immigration enforcement operations under the Trump administration.
Renee Good, 37, was killed while driving her SUV through an ICE scene. Administration officials and President Trump say the shooting was an act of self-defense.
Other recent cases include a person shot and killed in Chicago in September, two people who died after being struck by vehicles while fleeing from immigration officers during separate incidents in August and October, and a California farmworker who fatally fell from a greenhouse during an ICE raid in July.

Media Miss by the left: GOP Republican moves to honor Nick Shirley with Congressional Gold Medal
Rep. Eli Crane, R-Az., is pushing to award a YouTuber who deems himself an “independent journalist” the Congressional Gold Medal. It’s the highest honor Congress can bestow upon a civilian.
Nick Shirley, well known in MAGA circles, posted a video exposing alleged daycare fraud in Minnesota that went viral and sparked federal government probes into Minnesota’s social service programs. To date, many of the accusations raised in the video have either been debunked or left unsubstantiated.
