IN BETWEEN WRITING, I spoke about the Maduro kidnapping and its implications on All In With Chris Hayes and the Vibe Check podcast. I wanted to send that to you real quick. I'm in the editing phase of my next Zeteo column, so if you're not a paying subscriber, rectify that so you can receive that column the day after it publishes.

Here's the All In segment. It was my privilege to speak alongside the distinguished journalist Paola Ramos:

And here's the Vibe Check episode, where I talk with (my old Homan Square reporting partner) Zach Stafford and Saeed Jones. 

Before we go, I have to acknowledge the ICE summary execution of Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis. This 37-year old woman leaves behind a young child whose father has already passed away, and a wife who watched in agony as she was killed. Like many of you, I'm in a state of shock after watching the two different video angles of the final moments of her life. She posed no danger to ICE at all, they shot her through her windshield anyway, and then DHS Secretary Kristi Noem—in full contradiction of the video evidence—lied, saying that Good attempted to ram the officers. Supported by Donald Trump, she called it an act of terrorism. 

Well, there was an act of terrorism in Minneapolis today, and ICE committed it. Abolition is just the floor. Justice for Renee Nicole Good.
