HONG KONG NEWS RECAP: NOV 26TH TAI PO WANG FUK COURT FIRE

What happened?

How did this happen?

What about the bamboo scaffolding?

How can I help?

How do I keep up to date?

For a summary of local and governmental responses to the fires so far, I recommend the article "HKFP Monitor Nov 29, 2025: Deadly fire a test of governance, as netizens rally against foreign media bamboo blame" by the Hong Kong Free Press staff.

Congress is now considering the appropriations bill for the Department of Homeland Security, whose funding runs out at the end of January. Call your members of Congress and tell them to vote NO on any bill that increases ICE's funding. Please demand that the DHS appropriations bill prohibit ICE and Border Patrol agents from carrying guns and that it unambiguously declare that agents do not have absolute immunity under the law if they harm civilians. Also tell them that any bill must restrict ICE and Border Patrol’s ability to conduct dragnet arrest operations and target people based on their race, language or accent. And the bill must clarify that ICE agents are liable under civil and criminal law if they harm civilians. Do this as soon as you can. To reach your representative or senator, call the U.S. Congressional Switchboard at (202) 224-3121. Tell them the state and city where you live. They will connect you to any member’s office.

In case people don't realize the full extent of what's going on, we are under siege in Minnesota. I live in an affluent, majority white suburb of Minneapolis, and ICE is all over the place terrorizing people. They showed up at the library, kitted out in their Temu tactical gear, and stormed it.

The library. Please let that sink in.

They've pulled weapons on legal observers and physically attacked them. They're threatening teenagers and children with death. One woman told a story at my, again, affluent, majority white suburban town's city council meeting this week of being shoved from behind so hard that she fell down by an ICE agent, who then said to her, "Stop touching me." A man, in tears and begging for our city government to do something to help our neighbors, described having a baton pulled on him. They're luring people out of their workplaces with lies about "hitting someone's car in the parking lot" and then abducting them. Citizens and legal residents are being detained. People are being racially profiled and snatched. A teenager (a US citizen) working at Target got dragged out and shoved in a car, then dumped a mile away in a Wal-mart parking lot, beaten up and crying. And all of this is after they murdered Renee Good.

I don't emphasize the demographics of my particular suburb to say "but this shouldn't be happening here, we have money!" but to illustrate that the Trump administration has declared war on a US state. Even if you stick your head in the sand because you're white and won't be directly targeted, ICE is running traffic lights, speeding, tearing the wrong way on one way streets, and causing nasty accidents because they think they're above the law. They think it doesn't matter who they hurt or kill, because they're being told straight from the top that they can do whatever they want to whoever they want.

We are all under attack, and this is coming to a city near you if we don't stand up to it. Please stand with Minnesota, as well as LA, Portland, Chicago, and every other place DHS has sent their COD cosplay gestapo. I don't know what that looks like for you but please, please, don't ignore this.

I live in Minneapolis. OP is not being dramatic. We will continue this fight, but please everything you can to stand with us because nobody in this country is safe if they get away with these crimes against humanity.

Yeah I said something similar yesterday but we can NOT let what happened to Renee Good cloud what happened to everyone else at the hands of these SS Demons!!!

Because we can’t disregard one person if we’re for human rights!

Rest in Peace to Renee Good. ICE shooting an innocent 37 year old mother attempting to protect her neighbors is not an accident or an act of self defense, it is an act of terror designed to dissuade other people from stepping in, documenting ICE violence and reminding immigrants of their rights. Her son is now an orphan and the president of the United States is calling her a ‘professional agitator’ on social media.

The head of ICE is calling her a violent terrorist and claimed her attempt to back her car away was actually an effort to murder the ICE officers present.

There’s a reason that the Right have all rallied so quickly behind this narrative: it’s happened before, with ICE’s approval.

Renee is the ninth person to have been shot by ICE since last September; and in all of those shootings the victim was in a vehicle and the agents claimed that the vehicle was “a threat”/trying to “run them down.” One other shooting, that of Silverio Villegas Gonzalez, was also lethal.

This is pretty clearly a sanctioned tactic being used by ICE repeatedly with an eye towards using the vehicle-as-weapon excuse later.

two contradicting things can be true at the same time. maduro is an authoritarion human rights violator but that doesn't give trump the rights to drop bombs on innocent people or to capture world leaders. he's doing this because he can because he has the military & global power to, just like previous american presidents. maduro doesn't care about venezuela & neither does trump, my heart goes out to innocent venezuelans caught up between these two.

the fundraiser for Renée Macklin Good’s family has well surpassed its goal and is now closed — if you want to help Minneapolis residents as the city is terrorized by ICE raids, please turn your attention toward this fundraiser for local families, as well as Adelina Olivarez Cardona and Arturo Sanchez Chinos, both of whom are currently being detained.

On New Year's Eve in Los Angeles, while many were celebrating, Keith Porter, Jr was shot and murdered by an off duty ICE agent who failed to identify himself before proceeding to take Keith's life.

Statements from ICE/DHS labeled this overzealous, bloodthirsty pig a "hero" and described Keith Porter as an "active shooter", which is far from the truth. Allegedly, Keith fired a couple rounds from a rifle into the air as a way to ring in the new year. While certainly not a safe or recommended activity (if this allegation is actually true), it is not an action that warrants his extrajudicial murder. It is worth noting that many residents of the apartment complex he was slain in only describe hearing the 3-4 shots fired by the off duty ICE officer, and witnesses state that the officer did not identify himself before he began firing his weapon.

This happened very close to where I live. Close enough that I heard the gunshots that killed him. Keith was my neighbor and a loving, hardworking father of two girls. He was loved by his community. They now have to move through the world without him, taken far too soon from this earth by what they call a "good guy with a gun". I will not let him be forgotten. I will not let the media and the DHS/ICE twist the narrative to make this incident sound like anything but another black man being murdered on the spot without the benefit of the doubt. He was given no chance to speak for himself and now he is dead.

Do not let him die in vain. Rest in Power Keith Porter, Jr.

Whatever happened to "no comment pending an ongoing investigation"?

Noem just went out and labeled the victim a domestic terrorist.

According to Department of Justice's official policy on use of force - quite literally first thing it lists is:

Kristi Noem going on national presser and stating that murderer did what he was "trained" to do is objectively and literally incorrect and by DOJ's own guidelines indefensible.

So just so we're all clear ICE straight up murdered that woman in broad daylight and the government is calling HER the terrorist

So just so we're all clear ICE straight up murdered Renee Nicole Good in broad daylight and the government is calling HER the terrorist
