Not only very reminiscent of Renee Good but also Marimar Martinez who was shot six times in her car and remarkably survived.
"The three men who were with a 52-year-old Houston man when he was fatally shot by an immigration agent earlier this week said Lorenzo Salgado Araujo never tried to run over anyone and that agents repeatedly fired into the vehicle from the side of the van"

The other men in the van with Lorenzo Salgado Araujo said agents fired into the vehicle unprovoked, according to a lawyer for two of the men.

The Slaughter case, overturning precedent, returns us to a spoils system where a president can “clean house” every four years, destroying our professional, independent civil service.

With the strike of a pen, the extreme right wing SCOTUS has literally destroyed the independence of federal agencies and ushered in an entirely new fascist style of American governance: all to ensure autocratic one party government agency governance. So winning.

I’m not going to hail Barrett and Roberts for allowing us to count our votes. It’s a huge win for democracy, but it shouldn’t have even been a question. That we were one vote away from disenfranchising votes is all the more reason to expand the court in 2029.
