ICE; Federally Funded Terrorist Group

BREAKING: Pop superstar Billie Eilish TORCHES ICE as “federally funded terrorist group” after Minneapolis killing.

Billie Eilish just did what too many powerful people in Washington refuse to do — she told the truth — loudly.

In the wake of the fatal shooting of 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good by an ICE officer in Minneapolis, the nine-time Grammy winner used her massive platform to amplify what millions of Americans are already feeling. Enough is enough.

On Friday, just two days after Good was killed, Eilish shared a series of blistering posts condemning Immigration and Customs Enforcement. The first didn’t mince words, labeling ICE a “federally funded and supported terrorist group” that is “tearing apart families, terrorizing citizens, and now murdering innocent people.”

Eilish followed up by resharing a call to “abolish ICE,” listing 32 people who reportedly died in ICE custody last year alone. Another post urged Americans to call their members of Congress, demand ICE be defunded, and insist the officer who fired the deadly shots in Minneapolis be arrested and charged immediately.

This isn’t abstract activism. This is a response to blood on the streets.

The killing of Renee Nicole Good has ignited outrage nationwide, as video footage flatly contradicts the Trump administration’s talking points. While DHS, Donald Trump, and Vice President JD Vance rushed to claim the shooting was “self-defense,” the footage shows Good was driving away from officers — not toward them.

Even Trump himself appeared rattled after watching the video in the Oval Office. Struggling to spin what Americans could plainly see, he reportedly muttered: “Well… I… the way I look at it… it’s a terrible scene… I think it’s horrible to watch.”

No kidding.

ICE’s brutality has been polarizing since Trump returned to power, but this week marked a breaking point. A mother is dead. A family is shattered. And the government’s response has been deflection, denial, and lies.

Billie Eilish has never been shy about where she stands. She opposed Trump’s agenda, endorsed Kamala Harris in 2024, and has repeatedly condemned ICE raids — including those carried out in her home city of Los Angeles.

Now, she’s saying what millions are screaming: this agency is out of control.

When artists, activists, witnesses, and video evidence all tell the same story — and the government still refuses accountability — history will remember who spoke up… and who stayed silent.

Please like and share to spread Billie’s message.

ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) has operated for years with extraordinary power and almost no accountability. The result has been predictable and devastating: excessive force, civil rights violations, secrecy, and a culture that treats abuse as collateral damage.

Now, Democrats in both chambers of Congress are speaking out. Members of the Congressional Progressive Caucus and senators, including Senator Chris Murphy, are warning that ICE has become one of the most unaccountable agencies in the federal government. They are demanding a fundamental change in how Congress approaches ICE funding.

But words are not enough. As long as Congress continues to approve funding without enforceable reforms, nothing changes. Investigations stall. Oversight fails. Communities pay the price.

Government funding runs out on 1/30. This is the leverage point.

Democrats must refuse to fund ICE unless reforms are written into law and backed by real enforcement. No more funding first, accountability later.

Democrats have the power to force this choice, and some Republicans might join them. Every member of Congress needs to know the public is watching. Please sign the petition to Congress now.

The petition says:

I urge you to oppose all funding for ICE unless clear, enforceable, systemic reforms are written into law, including:

- ICE agents are required to wear ID and take off their masks
- The agency adopts and follows standards of professional policing
- Agents who kill, hurt, or unlawfully detain people are investigated and punished
PAID FOR AND AUTHORIZED BY, INEQUALITY MEDIA CIVIC ACTION.
