Fire, Ice, and blue Good girls

The Babylon Bee has been off its game for a few years now, but I still check it occasionally. They recently ran a story with the headline "Pentecostal Church Doesn't Notice Riot Is Occurring" and this illustration:


The first thing to catch my eye was of course this sign:


The intended meaning is, "Terminate the employment of those tasked with enforcing immigration law," but there's obviously also some intentional "fire and ice" wordplay.

Then I noticed this other sign:


Renee Good, written in blue. The late Ms. Good is apparently being promoted as the new George Floyd for an astroturfed Traitor Lives Matter movement. So, a woman named Good, known mainly for supporting criminals, with her name written in blue? This naturally made me think of Manson girl Sandra Good, known as "Blue" and closely associated with Lynette Fromme, known as "Red."

Fromme/Red (left) and Good/Blue (right)

Although her name links her to Sandra Good, Renee Good had much more of a Lynette Fromme physiognomy, particularly the eyes.


Skimming the Wikipedia article on Sandra Good, I read that "Good is portrayed by Kansas Bowling in Quentin Tarantino's 2019 film Once Upon a Time in Hollywood." I clicked the link for Kansas Bowling just because it was a funny name. There I read that "Bowling's longtime boyfriend is musician Don Devore." I clicked that link, too, because Devo was recently in the sync stream. One of the musical genres in which Mr. Devore performs is "shoegaze."

I know it's a pretty roundabout link, but I found that word, shoegaze, funnily appropriate, since recent syncs have associated red-and-blue spectacles or eyes with red-and-blue shoes.

Note the red planet( Sun? ) with its blue-green ring.
Note at the end of the video, the red 'sun'
is hidden and the blue moon remains.

Recall my recent comment on your,
Red and blue eyes, Egyptian edition
post where I wrote this about Blue Moon of Kentucky
lyrics:
"Blue moon of Kentucky keep on shining
Shine on the ***ONE that's gone and prove untrue
Blue moon of Kentucky keep on shining
Shine on the ***ONE that's ***gone and LEFT me Blue"

All the photos you posted ( in your previous post)
shows that the red (right) eye is hidden
and only the blue Left eye remains " Left me Blue".
