They didn't have the ham to indict
But it was assault with a deli weapon!

DONT TREAD ON BRIE
This meme is such a dense text (laudatory) 🥰
It’s clear what needs to be done during protests
Anyone have a gift link they can share?

Thanks
Thanks Doug.
100 to 1, the DOJ oversold it with some drama about the threat to the life of the brave ICE enforcer from a sub sandwich. I wonder if they tried to make it sound like the sandwich could have been a big rock or brick, thereby weakening their case.
FoxNews will be bummed out, they had wall-to-wall coverage of that arrest. 🤭
Keep it up America. 🇺🇸 I love you all for caring so much
Good! These people from ICE are nothing more than limp dick bullies. Keep pushing back their end is nigh.
Hope that guy doesn’t have any mortgage issues.
Was it a ham sandwich? Did they fail to indict a ham sandwich
It’s because it was a subway not potbelly so they knew he was just trying to get rid of the sandwich not use it to protest
Long live the fighters!
Campbell's soup can would have been a better tool...go heavy..🤭🤭🤭
A felony for pitching a perfectly good sub that the cop could have just had for lunch was a bit extreme. Heck on my day (Tuesday) out to the thrift stores, (25% off) someone could throw a meatball sub at me , and I would let them lick the Marinara off my shirt!
Gosh, I wish I had written this first!
Outstanding news!

Future law students will be taught that the prosecutor’s mistake was trying to indict the man, and not the sandwich itself.
@kenwhite.bsky.social
From my cold cut dead hands
Thanks good story
I read this as a free pass to attack ICE thugs with a sandwich, maybe a club sandwich up the side of their heads!
But that isn’t what happened at all. The limp Subway sandwich was thrown at a vest capable of stopping bullets. Insulting a policeman’s pride is not against the law yet.
Also, I forgot, a limp sandwich thrown at a bulletproof vest is still assault & battery, unless you throw it hard enough, then it is a revolutionary attack on a fascist soldier, which is legal.
The legal system didn’t think so. Wait till they find out it’s not actually illegal to burn the flag no matter their claims after the fact.
Well, I wouldn't overthink it. We're not going to war with a battalion of Subway sandwich soldiers.
Maybe we should lol.
They gonna rendition him to Uganda, I imagine, on charges of mortgage fraud.
It takes a Pirro to rise to that level of incompetence... gonna take another round at the punchbowl to soothe her shame... 😁
Lol
Tired: being prosecuted for throwing a sandwich. Wired: Suing the federal government for the loss/destruction of your sandwich. 💡
I deserve so much worse than a sandwich thrown at them.
Who are all these vindictive assholes who want to punish a guy for throwing a ham sandwich? Have you never done a rash and harmless act in anger?
I mean, what he did was rude and irritating, of course. That was the point. But I cannot imagine any serious-minded prosecutor looking at that irritant and making the case that it qualifies as assault.
"serious-mindes" prosecutors make cases for much less. imagine the lynching memorial in Montgomery, AL legacysites.eji.org/about/memori...
Agree to disagree on the "serious-minded" qualifier there. The people doing this sort of thing strike me as profoundly unserious in their application of the law, using it as a cudgel to inflict cruelty for their own satisfaction rather than in the pursuit of any genuine public good.
fair enough.
What he did was courageous and learned behavior from our natl guard* there fixed it for ya!
Oh, don't get me wrong; I absolutely support him in his decision to be rude and irritate them. It's the very least they deserve.
Facts 💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽
Spend a lotta time in the criminal justice system do you?
👍👍👍
Well, not the American one, since I'm neither an American citizen nor resident. I'm just saying.
It is literally assault by the letter of the law. of course, some assault is clearly justified . . .
Technically it would be battery, would it not? Assault is the credible threat of battery; battery is the deed. Of course it is unclear that battery by a sandwich is liable to cause grievous bodily harm, so
yeah
it's tricky to do battery without assault, I haven't seen a video or anything but
Right, I figured it would be charged as assault and battery which just heightens the ridiculousness. Presumably the jury had a good laugh and decamped to Subway
Thank God!
Trust me, a prosecutor will prosecute any crime real or imagined against a police officer. They will make it their personal crusade to ruin the life of the accused and hound them to the ends of the earth.
Too many folks think prosecutors are concerned about truth and justice.
BARBIE AG PAMMY AND KASH PATEL ARE THE WORST AG AND FBI DIRECTOR IN US HISTORY! CONTINUE TO BREAK THE LAW AND KEEP LOOSING IN COURT! Since Jan they have wasted billions in taxpayer funds for frivolous charges and ICE lawsuits! Meanwhile RELEASE THE EPSTEIN COMPLETE FILE AND DO REAL INDICTMENTS !
They should just charge him with possession of a condiment and call it a day.
Or assault with a deli weapon.
nice win for the good guys
Are we sure they didn't indict the actual ham sandwhich? Maybe it was imported ham?
😂 …
Now that we know that we can get away with using sandwiches to fight tyranny, I suggest we all start carrying this high-velocity, handy-dandy Subway Sandwich Cannon: youtu.be/uNJ5MftJC-0?...
Trump: I’m a law and order king. Pardons 1,500 insurrectionist who assaulted officers. Crypto criminals. Rapists. And Killers. Child rapists. His crime friends. Fraud. Bribery. Russia assets. Sexual assault Criminals. Has pardoned more criminals than all presidents combined! Law and order bullsh!t!
I live for the day when Pam Bondi and the rest of the clown parade get prosecuted for high treason!
Me too! I didn’t realize that guy worked for the DOJ previously. Explains why he threw the sandwich
...he worked for the internal affairs section. Soon as I heard that I understood why that man was WASTED before supposed felonious assault with a sandwich that may not legally be a sandwich.
She belongs in prison.
They could do the funniest thing and make him do community service litter picking alongside the guy he threw the sandwich at.
He already did the community a service when he sandwiched that cop.
Just say No to Mayo 😜
"THANKS TO THE DEMOCRAT PARTY NOW YOU HAVE TO INDICT A LAMB SCHWARMA"
We need more ham sandwich laws.
😂
Could salami and mayo be classified as weapon of mass stomach aches? Might help the prosecutors get an indictment?
🥪💪🇺🇸 Did I do emojis right?
Uh, since it's not illegal, let the sandwich flinging begin. 😂 I should probably add that I'm just kidding in case any MAGAts happen to read this.

paywall
What about the guy who threw a Big Gulp at Kim Foxx? Will his case be dropped?
It should be.
Good to see he ‘beat the wrap’ 😂
We'll probably see ham control before gun control.
Not to worry, Trump will issue a Presidential Execution Order for ham sandwich man, just as soon as he's finished prosecuting everyone who said something he doesn't like. Oh, and of course pardoning sex trafficking criminals.
We in here talking about a ham sandwich. A sandwich. We talking about a ham sandwich, man.
How Farcical Is The Trump "Justice" Department When They Can't Even Get A Grand Jury To Buy Their Nonsense...Research On This Will Show You That 99.99% Of Indictment Requests Are Granted By Grand Juries Who Only Hear The Governments Side....
The charges were baloney.
The occupation of DC is going to throw off No Bill statistics for the entire year.
And they way they brought a film crew and way too many thugs to his home to arrest him - these are not serious people.
Lawless times we live in.....
Maybe because the victim was unhamed I'll show myself out
I’ll bet if they ask the supreme court there would be five votes for bypassing the grand jury. Or choosing a grand jury from among DOGE employees.
Sounds like a very sensible grand jury. We have to take even small wins as a victory in this horrible regime.
ham sandwich a deadly weapon. the possession of a ham sandwich not a guaranteed right under the 2nd amendment.
That's what happens when political hack federal prosecutors lose credibility. They've already lost it with judges, now they're losing it with jurors.
The most ridiculous thing Kristi Gnome every attempted. She's made a laughing stock out of our government.
Obviously bought him lunch…..
The case was half-baked. The prosecutors were clearly in somewhat of a pickle. And it was a SUB-par investigation
Good one!
We don’t need to get salty about these things. Lettuce meet each other halfway
Brie at last!
I hope that Po'Boy didn't spend any time in jail.
You can’t fool all of the people all of the time. If you are indicted DEMAND a jury trial.
🥳🧻🧯
Good news for anyone who was ever in a food fight. The entire cast of Animal House would be in jail

Fascist crybabies
So, what you are telling me is that it is ok to throw sandwiches, hoagies, grinders, heroes and foot-longs at cosplay cops?
Dammit
I’m surprised they didn’t attempt to charge him with hate speech with him repeatedly calling them fascists.
Bluesky is jumping claims on this joke like Sutter's Mill in 1849
Was he a Federal Agent, though?
LOL
Judge Box O'Wine has now failed twice to get an indictment of the dastardly hoagie thrower.
Love that for her! Sip on Janine
Not enough mustard on the throw I reckon.
I’m gratified people get that pun. :)
Oh very nice.
hahahahahahahahahaha True.
The times they are a-changin'.
😂😂
When they outlaw sandwiches, only outlaws will have sandwiches
1. Felony assault 2. Assault with a deli weapon 3. Nothing Burger
Assault with a deli weapon 💀
Militias and preppers spend so much money on guns and ammo, when they could have just been buying a ham sub footlong. Keeps the federal agents away and you are well fed.
Have you seen Meal Team Six?
👏👏🗽
So he was unlawfully fired? Bc isn’t he innocent of charges… I hope we see that sandwich incident and all those pansy agents … forever… all like OMG he throw ham at me! Outrageous! … now someone needs to give a job… fuck them..
Wouldn't exactly call something from Subway a sandwich. More like a loaf of soggy bread.
Limp Blintz....
🤣🤣
Supporting this vet.
Power to the peppercini!
to the brave man who threw a ham sandwich... Free ham sandwiches for the rest of the year so you can protect yourself!
They’re gonna try to deport him to Uganda. Or do something equally obscene. They’re not gonna let this go
Indictment was gluten free..
It was all about "respect my authorita!"
Janine Pirro, 8/14: "Stick your Subway sandwich somewhere else." Grand Jury, 8/26: "Good idea. We know just the place."
That's fucking hilarious. This guy's a hero. Who is going to indict him? NOBODY.
Good
I will share this whenever the sandwich throwing is mentioned: whenfallsthecoliseum.com/2025/08/15/w...
Guess the sandwich throw needed a little more mustard
🤣😂
YES!! 🤣🤣🤣
They can arrest a sandwich but certainly not an obvious criminal if they happen to be a billionaire or filthy rich.
Now that he's thrown a sandwich, I'll throw a sandwich, and you'll throw a sandwich. It will be anarchy!!!!
True at the state level, not at the federal level where resources are limited so only the most egregious crimes that are very likely to lead to a conviction are pursued.
The prosecution’s case went a-rye.
The first one to post this won BluSky today
Brilliant framing! His prosecution revealed the fragility of everyone from the president to his masked ICE thugs.
Good one! 😂
Give him 40 hours of community service, picking up other sandwiches off the street. Make him think about what he’s done. Then maybe he can return to society and we won’t have to worry about who he’s going to throw a sandwich at next.
Glad sandwich guy beat blondi’s ham handed wrap!
brings to my mind the time Moses came down the mount with the ten condiments. I relish those days.
Ask me about jury nullification
That's because somebody ate the sandwich. Habeas cibus.
Then we should all throw sandwiches at these nazis. (PRO TIP: Keep Your sandwiches in the freezer for at least a few days before throwing, for best results. )
Congratulations Sandwich man!
Who would have ever imagined that an assault on America’s Democracy would occur from within, and only a small cadre of Democratic Congressional Members , a handful of courageous Governors, and a Hero Subway Sandwich Quarterback would be the best resistance force we could muster.
I just want to know if he gets that sandwich back
Subway's stock probably doubled overnight
🤣
He was trying to feed someone, you can not indicate person who is trying to help a idiot
Front-page headlines about how this administration failed to get a grand jury indictment for a potentially deadly sandwiching at close range. How utterly embarrassing for them.
"Hey! Put some mustard on it!"
Sandwich, Sandwich Man.... Wasn't that a song from Village People?
So the hurler won’t be sub-poenaed …
The prosecution process could've been a real grinder for him, but the hurler has emerged as a true hero.
I'm pretty sure if this lawlessness keeps up it's going to lead to a huge national food fight.
i hope people are buying him beers, sandwiches, etc.
I once sat in on a court case of shoplifting where the defendant was representing himself and his entire defence was that he did it by accident because he was distracted by his own sandwich
The Trump takeover is ending crime because grand juries don’t believe the Trump goons can do their job correctly
They may now seek an indictment of the sandwich!
decades we waited to say this
If you watch the video, the sandwich reminds me a little bit of trying to throw a tissue. Despite the man’s good throw, the sub still broke apart and gracefully fell everywhere like a bunch of maple tree helicopters in the fall.
Typical childish behavior humans are to act like god dam toddler. Imma throw a sandwich at a cop.
It was a Salami sandwich. You can't indict a Salami sandwich.
This is definitely ONION material 🤣 😂 🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤣👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Or at least can indict a ham sub
What do you expect from a Trump-appointed DOJ?
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣
It was just a false salami after all. 📞 Hello? Yes. Flywheel, Shyster and Flywheel? The Marx Brothers want their joke back? Well, there's a pickle...
Society’s gone.🤷🏽♂️
From My Cold Cut Hands
How long before Kyle Rittenhouse murders a guy carrying a sandwich?
Is the sandwich still in evidence or can it now be eaten?
The Regime wants to provoke violent resistance by black and brown people to force the face of crime in America. Newsflash: the face of the resistance is the white, pink-poloed Sandwich Guy
Subway should offer free sandwiches today in honor of this!
He gave up his dinner for democracy.
It's not an example of how powerful ham sandwiches have become, it's an idictment on how much of a shitshow our legal system has become.
A crumb of justice
FREE SANDWICH GUY !
Soon, you won't be able to get a ham sandwich.
So, either it wasn't a ham sandwich or DOJ is incompetent
The notorious club sandwich
Grand juries tend to be citizens who live in the community. They traveled to court that morning and probably saw dozens of people being pulled over for nonsense. They saw armed military patrolling the streets for no reason. That 100% will have an impact on verdicts yet they don’t see it.
I think it's time for us all to start carrying deli weapons.
🔥☄️
Subwaygate
In 1985, Sol Wachtler, then the chief justice of New York's Supreme Court said, “Any good prosecutor can get a grand jury to indict a ham sandwich.” The key word there is the adjective immediately preceding "prosecutor."
Sandwich guy wins! Wine lady loses.
