Vance: you will be summarily executed by state agents you pose no danger to and like it
By 
Former NYT contributing opinion writer JD Vance says that the peons should appreciate masked, armed, unidentified state agents doing Kavanaugh searches of neighborhoods:
JD Vance: "It was a legitimate law enforcement operation. We were going door to door to try to find criminal illegal aliens and deport them from the United States … say a prayer for that agent … he deserves a debt of gratitude."

If I might be so anachronistic enough to invoke the law, ICE agents to not have the authority to stop or search anyone with probable cause that they are illegal immigrants. They cannot legally just go randomly door to door or try to break into a random protestor’s car unless the latter is forcibly impeding an investigation. The idea that we should be “grateful” for someone who performed a cold-blooded execution of a woman who posed no danger and he had no legitimate reason to be engaged with in the first place is something only the deadest-soul authoritarian could believe. And this creation of the political press and the elite legal education industrial complex doesn’t have the excuse of cognitive decline.
As Paul has already detailed, every word of this is a lie to justify the transparently indefensible:
JD Vance: "Ramming an ICE officer with your car — that's what justifies being shot … the reason this woman is dead is because she tried to ram somebody with her car and that guy acted in self defense"

Meanwhile. the Strib has identified the agent who killed Renee Good.
…he keeps getting worse:
Yes, JD. Let’s ask them if they think a stay at home mom, avowed Christian, and widow of a veteran deserved to be shot in the face and left to bleed out in her own car after dropping her 6-year-old off at school, for the crime of looking out for her neighbors. Let’s ask everyone running for office.
