A GoFundMe campaign supporting ICE agent Jonathan Ross, who fatally shot Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis last week, has surged past $475,000 in donations. Organized by a Michigan man in response to backlash over Good's own fundraiser, the page calls Ross's actions fully justified. Billionaire Bill Ackman chipped in $10,000, emphasizing innocence until proven guilty.
Hold onto your lattes, because this story is serving major drama! 😲 A GoFundMe benefiting Jonathan Ross—the ICE agent accused of shooting Renee Nicole Good to death—has raked in over $475,000 as of Monday, just days after the incident on January 7 in Minneapolis. The campaign, with a goal of $550,000, was launched by Clyde Emmons, a Michigan resident who didn't hold back: he set it up "after seeing all the media bs about a domestic terrorist" (that's Good, folks) getting her own GoFundMe, which closed after topping $1.5 million.
Emmons is crystal clear: Ross's actions were "1000 percent justified," and the funds are meant to help the agent. Enter billionaire Bill Ackman, dropping a cool $10,000—the biggest donation so far. In a post on X, Ackman explained he wanted to match it for Good's campaign too, but hey, principles! "I'm a big believer in our legal principal that one is innocent until proven guilty," he wrote, calling the whole mess a tragedy. Eyes on the ethics, though—federal rules from the U.S. Office of Government Ethics say employees like Ross can't pocket salary supplements for their job. Gifts are okay if they're personal or familial, not tied to the badge. Messy much? 🤔
Rewind to the scene: On a residential street, ICE officers ordered Good out of her Honda Pilot as she tried to drive off. Ross, positioned at the front, fired three shots, one fatally hitting her in the head. Both sides' intentions? Hotly disputed. The Trump administration isn't staying silent—Vice President J.D. Vance and Kristi Noem have praised Ross, insisting it was self-defense. So, will the donations actually reach him, or is this just more online fireworks? Spill your thoughts in the comments!
