State-Sanctioned Silence: Fighting for Justice for Porter, Good, and Pretti

State-Sanctioned Silence: Demanding Justice for Porter, Good, and Pretti

The promise of constitutional protection is ringing hollow across America as a disturbing pattern of federal violence emerges from the shadows of tactical gear and redacted reports. In the span of just a few weeks, the names Keith Porter Jr., Renée Nicole Good, and Alex Pretti have transitioned from those of vibrant community members—a father, a poet, and a nurse—to grim symbols of an agency operating beyond its mandate.

These were not foreign threats or high-level fugitives; they were United States citizens executed on their own streets and in their own yards by ICE agents who have traded due process for deadly force. As the administration attempts to shroud these tragedies in labels of “domestic terrorism” and the NRA issues unprecedented warnings about the erosion of our Second and Fourth Amendment rights, we must refuse to let the official narrative bury the truth. The silence from our leaders is a disgrace, and the blood of our fellow citizens demands a reckoning that can no longer be deferred.

Keith Porter Jr. – A Father Stolen on New Year’s Eve

On December 31, 2025, while families across Los Angeles were celebrating the New Year, Keith Porter Jr. was gunned down outside his Northridge home. Keith wasn’t a “target.” He was a 43-year-old Black father, a man described by his mother as “full of gratitude” and by his community as a source of joy.

The “threat”? Keith allegedly fired a celebratory shot into the air—a common, if misguided, New Year’s tradition. In response, an off-duty ICE agent living in the same complex didn’t call the police. He put on tactical gear, stepped outside, and shot Keith dead in front of his own home.

Keith Porter Jr. was a United States citizen. He was a father of two. He was a human being who deserved a trial, not a tactical execution by a neighbor playing soldier with a federal badge. The silence from local authorities is a disgrace. We demand an independent investigation now.

Renée Nicole Good – A Mother, a Poet, a Target

On January 7, 2026, in Minneapolis, 37-year-old Renée Nicole Good had just dropped her six-year-old child off at school. She was driving a Honda Pilot decorated with her child’s stuffed animals. Moments later, she was dead—shot three times by masked ICE agents in the middle of a city street.

The administration’s attempt to smear Renée as a “domestic terrorist” is a disgusting slap in the face to her family and the truth. Renée was a writer and a poet. Her “crime” was reportedly stopping to support her immigrant neighbors during an ICE raid. Video evidence shows agents preventing a doctor from reaching her as she lay dying.

Renée Good was a U.S. citizen. She was a mother. She was murdered for exercising her humanity. If a citizen can be gunned down in broad daylight for witnessing a federal operation, none of us are safe.

Alex Pretti – The Nurse Who Cared Too Much

Just yesterday, January 24, 2026, the violence returned to Minneapolis. Alex Pretti, a 37-year-old intensive care nurse at the local VA hospital, was killed by federal agents. A man who spent his life saving the lives of American veterans was wrestled to the ground and shot ten times.

Federal officials claim Alex had a gun. But bystander video tells a different story: Alex was holding a cellphone and directing traffic to keep people safe during a chaotic federal operation. He was pepper-sprayed, shoved, and then executed while pinned to the sidewalk.

Governor Tim Walz has called the official account “nonsense.” Alex was a kindhearted soul, a lawful gun owner with no criminal record, and a dedicated public servant. To see the government lie about a man who gave everything to his patients is a moral failure that should haunt every American.

The Disgrace: A Constitutional Crisis

Beyond these individual tragedies, we are witnessing a complete breakdown of the rule of law and justice.

  • The NRA Statement: In a stunning move, the National Rifle Association (NRA) has joined civil rights groups in condemning the administration’s tactics. They have raised the alarm that ICE and the Trump administration are bypassing the Constitution, specifically citing the violation of the Fourth Amendment (protection against unreasonable searches and seizures) and the Second Amendment rights of citizens like Alex Pretti, who are being targeted despite being lawful gun owners.

  • Abolish ICE: In response to these killings, Congressman Shri Thanedar has introduced the Abolish ICE Act, arguing that the agency has become a “rogue” force operating without accountability or constitutional restraint.

This isn’t just about immigration anymore. This is about federal agents killing United States citizens on American soil with total impunity. It is a disgrace. It is un-American. And it must stop.

Action Center: Demand Justice and Accountability

The killing of U.S. citizens by federal agents is a crisis that requires immediate intervention from our elected officials and oversight bodies. Use the information below to make your voice heard to ensure justice against these murderers.

1. Support the Abolish ICE Act

Contact Congressman Shri Thanedar, who has officially introduced the Abolish ICE Act in response to these tragedies. Demand that your own representatives co-sponsor this bill to stop the rogue actions of this agency.

2. File Official Misconduct Complaints

For those who witnessed these incidents or want to demand an investigation into specific agents, you can file formal complaints with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).

  • DHS Office of Inspector General (OIG): This office investigates civil rights and civil liberties abuses.

  • ICE Office of Professional Responsibility (OPR): This office conducts independent fact-finding reviews of all “critical incidents” involving ICE, including use of force.

3. Contact the White House

President Trump and his administration are responsible for the directives leading to these surge operations in cities like Minneapolis and Los Angeles.

4. Support Local Advocacy Groups

Groups like the Legal Defense Fund (LDF) are already on the ground in Minneapolis condemning the killing of Alex Pretti and calling on Congress to restrict DHS funding.

Subject: Urgent: Demand Accountability for ICE Misconduct and Support for the Abolish ICE Act

To: [Representative’s Name] / [DHS OIG Intake]

Message:

I am contacting you as a deeply concerned citizen regarding the recent string of fatal shootings involving ICE agents and United States citizens, specifically the tragic deaths of Keith Porter Jr., Renée Nicole Good, and Alex Pretti.

These incidents represent a catastrophic failure of federal oversight and a direct violation of constitutional rights. It is unacceptable for federal agents to operate with such impunity on American soil.

I am calling on your office to:

  • Co-sponsor the Abolish ICE Act introduced by Congressman Shri Thanedar to end the rogue operations of this agency.

  • Demand an independent Department of Justice investigation into these specific killings to ensure full transparency and criminal accountability for the agents involved.

  • Support strict legislative limits on DHS funding used for domestic “surge” operations that bypass local law enforcement and endanger residents.

We cannot wait for another tragedy. Our communities deserve justice, safety and the protection of their constitutional rights, not state-sanctioned violence.

Sincerely, [Your Name] [Your City/Zip Code]

The Final Word: From Grief to Revolution

This cannot simply be another cycle of news and temporary outrage. The deaths of Keith Porter Jr., Renée Nicole Good, and Alex Pretti are not “isolated incidents”—they are the inevitable symptoms of a system that has fundamentally forgotten its purpose. We are past the point of asking for minor reforms; we are at the threshold of a necessary revolution. This is a disgrace that has finally stripped away the veil, showing us that when federal agencies are allowed to bypass the Constitution with impunity, no one is safe. But in this darkness, there is a spark for justice.

From the halls of Congress with the Abolish ICE Act to the streets of Minneapolis and Los Angeles, a unified cry for justice is rising. Let this moment be remembered not just for the lives taken, but as the day we decided to stop being silent. We are the architects of a new era—one where systemic violence is dismantled and replaced by true community safety. The revolution against state-sanctioned violence has begun, and we will not stop until every citizen can breathe without fear.

Justice for Renee Good, Alex Pretti, and Keith Porter
