An online fundraiser for the ICE agent who shot Renée Nicole Good includes a denunciation of “anti-American traitors like Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey (who is Jewish).”
The parenthetical is quietly removed from the GiveSendGo after prominent figures, including CNN anchor Jake Tapper, draw attention to it.
It still refers to illegal immigrants in Minnesota as “invaders” in a “sanctuary cesspool,” and calls for Immigration and Customs Enforcement to “purge these lawbreaking parasites from our soil.”
The fundraiser has garnered almost $190,000 so far, just shy of its $200,000 goal.
The page says all proceeds will go to the ICE officer who shot and killed Minneapolis resident Good last week, as the latter, in the driver’s seat of her car, began to drive her car after officers demanded she get out of it.
Help us report truthfully on social media
As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
If you believe in the importance of factual social media journalism, please consider joining our reader support group, The Times of Israel Community. Your financial support is essential to sustain responsible multimedia reporting.
