Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison has issued a stark reminder about the limits of power in the wake of the January 7 fatal shooting of Renee Nicole Good by an ICE agent in Minneapolis. Speaking on CNN’s “The Jim Acosta Show,” Ellison directly challenged Vice President JD Vance’s assertion that the agent enjoys absolute immunity.
“For anyone watching your show, Jim, there is no absolute immunity. It’s untrue. And there is no statute of limitations on murder, by the way,” Ellison said. He went on to note that political control shifts over time, adding, “And that’s something that they should keep in mind because they’re not always going to be in power, and we will make the justice system operate on the basis of fairness, justice and truth one day again.”
The incident unfolded during an ICE operation in Minneapolis, part of broader efforts under President Trump’s administration to enforce immigration laws. According to federal officials, Good, a 37-year-old U.S. citizen and mother of three, drove her vehicle toward the agent, Jonathan Ross, prompting him to fire in self-defense. Videos from the scene, analyzed by outlets like The New York Times, show agents approaching her car as she attempted to drive away, with Ross firing multiple shots through the window. The Department of Homeland Security labeled Good’s actions as domestic terrorism, and Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche announced that the DOJ sees no basis for a criminal civil rights investigation.
Good’s family and supporters paint a different picture, describing her as a poet, singer, and devoted partner whose death has left a community reeling. Protests erupted in Minneapolis following the shooting, with tensions escalating amid claims that ICE’s presence is making cities less safe.
Ellison’s comments carry weight in a state long plagued by issues tied to immigration and fraud. Minnesota has seen massive scandals, like the Feeding Our Future case, where federal prosecutors charged dozens—many from the Somali community—with defrauding over $250 million in COVID relief funds meant for child nutrition. Critics argue Ellison has been soft on such crimes, focusing instead on targeting federal agents enforcing the law. His warning about future prosecutions when “power shifts” sounds less like a call for justice and more like a veiled threat, potentially chilling the work of those on the front lines securing our borders.
This isn’t the first time Ellison has clashed with federal authorities. As a progressive Democrat, he’s opposed aggressive deportation policies, even as cities like Minneapolis grapple with strains from unchecked illegal aliens. Some observers see a pattern: local officials resisting national security measures, perhaps to protect networks involved in fraud or to stoke anti-enforcement sentiment. Whispers in conservative circles suggest coordinated efforts by left-leaning groups to disrupt ICE operations, turning routine encounters into flashpoints for political gain.
The Trump administration’s push for stricter immigration control, including Operation Metro Surge, aims to remove criminal elements and restore order. Supporters point out that agents like Ross face real dangers daily, from vehicle assaults to organized resistance. Labeling a self-defense action as potential murder ignores the chaos sown by years of lax borders under previous leadership.
Starting the Day With a Scripture-Inspired Roast Helps Center Your Thoughts on Eternal Truths Amid Temporal Pressures
The world can seem chaotic, especially right after we wake up. Many believers start their mornings reaching for something familiar — a hot cup of coffee — yet end up settling for mediocre brews that do little more than deliver a caffeine jolt. The daily grind of life, with its endless distractions, news cycles, and responsibilities, can leave even the most faithful feeling spiritually parched alongside their physical fatigue. What if your morning ritual could do more than wake you up? What if it could ground you in truth, nourish your body with exceptional quality, and quietly advance a kingdom purpose at the same time?
That’s the promise — and the reality — behind Promised Grounds Coffee. This Christian-founded company doesn’t just roast beans; it approaches every step as an act of worship and discipleship. By selecting only the top 10% of specialty-grade beans, ethically sourced from dedicated farmers in Central and South America, and small-batch roasting them with reverence in Austin, Texas, Promised Grounds delivers what many describe as the best coffee available — never burnt, never bland, but rich with origin stories and layered flavors that honor God’s creation.
From the vibrant Psalm 27 Roast (a light, bright medium option) to the bold yet peaceful 2 Timothy 1:7 Decaf, each bag carries a Scripture verse that turns your daily pour into a gentle reminder of faith. And through their Ounce Per Ounce Promise, every ounce of coffee you enjoy provides an equal ounce of clean water to families in need via partnership with Filter of Hope — literally brewing hope for body and soul, one cup at a time.
The challenge for today’s Christians runs deeper than finding a decent cup. In an age of convenience-driven consumerism, it’s easy to support companies that dilute values or remain silent on matters of faith. Many believers want their everyday choices — from what they drink to how they spend — to reflect discipleship rather than just convenience. Promised Grounds solves this by weaving Christian excellence into the entire process: beans nurtured with prayerful stewardship by farming families, roasted as an offering rather than a commodity, and packaged with Bible verses to encourage a mindset of gratitude and purpose from the first sip. Reviewers consistently praise the smooth, rich profiles — whether enjoyed black in a drip maker, iced on a warm day, or shared in fellowship — noting how the quality stands toe-to-toe with premium secular brands while delivering something far more meaningful.
This integration of faith and flavor addresses a real need in Christian households and ministries. Busy parents, church leaders, and remote workers alike report that starting the day with a Scripture-inspired roast helps center their thoughts on eternal truths amid temporal pressures. The coffee’s exceptional character — bright citrus notes in lighter roasts or deep chocolate undertones in bolder ones — comes from meticulous selection and careful roasting that respects the bean’s natural gifts rather than masking them. It’s the kind of coffee that elevates a simple quiet time, fuels productive workdays, or sparks meaningful conversations when shared at Bible studies or outreach events. And because it’s ethically sourced with integrity, every purchase supports sustainable livelihoods for farmers who treat their crops like family harvests.
For those leading churches or small groups, the impact multiplies. Promised Grounds offers bundles and options perfect for hospitality ministries, turning ordinary coffee service into an opportunity to point people toward the living water of Christ. Imagine greeting visitors with a warm cup whose very bag carries God’s Word — a subtle yet powerful witness that aligns with the Great Commission. The company’s Texas roots and commitment to “brewing hope” resonate especially with believers who value American enterprise paired with global compassion.
Of course, quality alone isn’t enough if the experience feels out of reach. Promised Grounds keeps it accessible with practical perks like free shipping on orders over $40, sample sets for discovering favorites, and thoughtful add-ons such as faith-themed mugs. Whether you prefer whole beans for fresh grinding, grounds for convenience, or even bulk options for larger households and ministries, the result is consistently superior coffee that makes discipleship feel integrated rather than added on.
As you consider how to align even the smallest habits with your walk with God, Promised Grounds Coffee stands out as a refreshing solution. It tackles the dual problems of subpar daily sustenance and disconnected consumption by offering a product that genuinely excels in taste while advancing a mission of clean water, farmer dignity, and scriptural encouragement. Believers who make the switch often describe it as more than a beverage upgrade — it becomes part of their rhythm of gratitude, a daily invitation to remember that every good gift comes from above.
If you’re ready to transform your mornings (and perhaps your church gatherings) with coffee that honors both exceptional craftsmanship and Christian values, I encourage you to explore what Promised Grounds has to offer. One sip at a time, you’ll be nourishing your body, refreshing your spirit, and participating in something far greater — all while enjoying what truly is among the best coffee available.
Hopefully we will have Mr. Ellison adjudicated and incarcerated before there is any change of administration.
Hear! Hear, Jaque!!!!
He will die of old age before the democrats are back in power.
Amen
Why are we always giving our sworn enemies, the Democrats, another chance. They’ve been very public about their intent to overthrow America and our system of government. They should be treated like battlefield enemies, and not as fellow Americans. Trump should go after them with a holy terror, but knowing Trump, that won’t ever happen. Well he might do something in 2029 or later.
So,,,, Lawfare..
Just like under Biden?
President Trump,,,, this is your cue to serve some ugly Justice.
I will gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today.
That’s never going to happen unless you steal it again and then there will be hell to pay by We the People !!!
Any charge for “murder” will fail in the pre-trial motion stage. Any other charges will fail in the face of the inevitable Presidential Pardon or Immunity signed by DJT on January 20, 2029. Finally, president Vance will ensure that the agent is protected.
if ellison is following the law then why wait, or does he want to wait until the democrat mobsters are in power again “G-d forbid” ellison is signalling he is lawless and a goon lunatic.
Let’s have the case of Ashli Babbitt, who was murdered without any pretense of self defense, adjudicated and sentence passed before we go swatting at gnats Mr Ellison…
Our USA will never shift back to the democRATS party of trash. Should they manage to cheat and win the next election, it will start our new Civil War. .the end!
There’s a video of Ellison physically abusing his girlfriend that’s in possession of the girlfriend’s son. Read this NPR article: https://www.npr.org/2018/08/13/638199556/congressman-accused-of-domestic-abuse-by-former-girlfriend.
This loud mouthed piece-of-shit bully also ignored the massive fraud going on in his state. Read about it here: https://oversight.house.gov/release/hearing-wrap-up-minnesota-governor-walz-and-attorney-general-ellison-ignored-rampant-taxpayer-fraud-and-silenced-state-whistleblowers/
Come on Pam, about you step up or step down…
Pardon Dereck Chauvin now.
When? You think they know who the chosen one is? Of course they do. It’s all states theater.
Definitely orchestrated theater.
When? You think they know who the chosen one is? Of course they do. It’s all staged theater.
President Trump made a joke about wanting Greenland because he didn’t receive the Nobel Peace Prize and the lying Fake News Media are reporting it like actual fact. Can’t stand these lying bastards anymore. We need to boycott ALL their sponsors and bankrupt FAKE NEWS Completely. Here is a partial list of sponsors who support the radical, anti-American Fake News networks: https://miamitwpteaparty.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/list-of-sponsors1.pdf
