JD Vance is a piece of shit
After Renee Nicole Good's killing, SFGATE columnist Drew Magary speaks his mind
By Drew Magary
No, I’m not done talking about Renee Nicole Good. I know that the Donald Trump era has infected every living American with a goldfish brain, but not this time. No, this time I’m keen to linger on President Deathbed’s latest, nastiest atrocity. And I’m not alone. That’s because all of us saw the video, which I’ll link to right now for your reference. Please be warned that this video contains footage of an innocent woman being killed and will make you accordingly disgusted.
Now, I could show you other videos of this killing, including the one where Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer Jonathan Ross says “f—king bitch” at Good after shooting her in the face. But that’s an exercise in redundancy, and it’s one that gives viewers tacit permission to overthink this, to open up avenues of thought that dismiss what is plain to every naked eye. In the middle of a Minnesota neighborhood where local residents were peacefully protesting ICE’s unwelcome presence in their state, an armed ICE officer speed-walked toward Good’s car. Good, an American citizen, attempted to drive away, only for Ross to stick his gun in the driver’s side window and start firing. Ross is a killer, and part of a federal government apparatus that is now waging open war on all Americans, with ICE as its invading force.
One of the biggest cheerleaders for that war is sitting Vice President JD Vance. After Department of Homeland Security stooge Tricia McLaughlin called Good a domestic terrorist (lie), claimed that Good was in cahoots with other “rioters” (lie), and that Good attempted to run Ross over with her car (she was driving away from the officers), Vance wasted no time in attempting to bend reality even further. This ugly, pathetic, awful man had the gall to ask Americans to say a prayer for Ross, and not the woman Ross gunned down. That counts as the nicest thing Vance said in his press briefing right after the killing. Here’s a more extensive text excerpt from his remarks, because I can’t stand to hear the man speak:
“This is a guy (Ross) who’s actually done a very, very important job for the United States of America. He’s been assaulted, he’s been attacked, he’s been injured because of it. He deserves a debt of gratitude.”
No, he doesn’t. Jonathan Ross deserves nothing but scorn, and so do you. You liar. You scum. You waste of oxygen. Waiting for the moment when all of America finally turns against Vance — and the clumsy Nazism that he embodies — is like watching a pot boil when you forgot to turn the burner on. But if I, a lone voter, have any chance to help manifest that tipping point into being, I will.
Because what is the point of JD Vance? What does he actually stand for, besides anything that Trump or his sugar daddies in the tech sector tell him to say? And how exactly did Americans benefit from the unprovoked killing of a woman literally named Good? Do you feel any safer thanks to Ross’ open cowardice? Do you feel grateful that he left Good’s children devastated, forever? Are your groceries suddenly cheaper now thanks to Ross’ heroic act of randomly shooting a woman? Did you study all of the camera angles like an NFL ref and decide that actually, Good completed the process of attempted murder? No, no, no, no, no, and no. Vance can lie, slander and spin this killing all he likes, but, thanks to the raw footage, none of it will mask the giant, neon sign blinking over his head that says THIS MAN IS AN AMORAL SACK OF S—T. A fascist. A liar. A champion of genocide.
That truth now has more virality than the lies Vance is perpetuating in the hopes of justifying Good’s killing. Exactly zero Americans benefited from this killing, and Ross had no legal case for shooting Good three times in the face. That’s why Minnesota officials are already suing the Trump administration to get ICE out of their state entirely. It’s why Minnesota civilians are viciously heckling any ICE agents they encounter out in public. It’s why public servants in that state are resigning en masse rather than comply with orders from Trump’s thoroughly corrupted Department of Justice to investigate Good’s widow for … well look, this grieving woman has clearly done SOME crimes somewhere. Why else would ICE have killed her wife in broad daylight otherwise?
You and I now understand that this is how the second Trump administration operates: shoot first, smear later. Our loaded barf bag of a president has any number of subordinates ready to carry out this doctrine, but Vance is especially deserving of your ire, and mine, right now. Because what the f—k are we doing here? Seriously, WHAT THE F—K IS THIS EVEN SUPPOSED TO BE? It’s not just that Vance is championing policies that are plainly evil, but he’s championing ones that are also deeply, enragingly pointless. It’s amorality without even the pretense of functional purpose. Even if you’re a racist, you ain’t coming out ahead. Because Vance, this administration and its media subordinates want all of us dead. Look at the contempt they’re demonstrating for you, and for everyone in America, right now:
There is no middle ground to be had here. We understand who the forces of evil are in this story. Even Joe Rogan, who is paid hundreds of millions of dollars to be stupid for a living, is beginning to grasp that. Because no proud American wants to lose their country to these people. Maybe they saw something in it for them before all of this, but the water-carriers for Trump 2.0 have annihilated that idiot daydream. JD Vance, YOU are the enemy. And Renee Nicole Good deserves justice for what you, Ross and your fellow terror merchants have done.
